Electronic toy capable of emotion displaying using an emotion unit

Abstract

An electronic toy capable of displaying emotions is provided in the present disclosure. The electronic toy includes an emission unit for displaying an emotion of the electronic toy, and a memory system for storing a color-emotion table recording a relationship between the emotion of the electronic toy and different colored light emitted by the emission unit. A controller is electrically connected with the emission unit for turning on or turning off elements of the emission unit according to the relationship between the emotion and the different colored light emitted by emission unit. In particular, the emission unit typically includes three lamps emitting light of three primary colors, and a light mixer, wherein the light mixer mixes the primary color light emitted by the lamps.

1 . An electronic toy capable of displaying emotions, the electronic toy comprising: an emission unit configured for displaying an emotion of the electronic toy, wherein the emission unit comprises lamps capable of emitting light of at least three primary colors, wherein the emission unit further comprises a light mixer configured for mixing at least one color of the at least three primary colors emitted by the lamps into a displayed light, wherein the light displayed corresponds to an emotion of the electronic toy;
 a memory system configured for storing a color-emotion table, wherein the color-emotion table is configured for recording a relationship between the emotion of the electronic toy and the primary colors of light emitted by the emission unit; and   a controller, electrically connected with the emission unit, configured for turning on or turning off the lamps according to the relationship between the emotion and the primary colors of light emitted by the emission unit.   
   
   
       2 . The electronic toy according to  claim 1 , wherein the lamps comprise a red lamp, a green lamp, and a blue lamp. 
   
   
       3 . The electronic toy according to  claim 2 , wherein the color-emotion table is further configured for recording a relationship between at least one emotion, at least one color, and at least one emission time length, wherein the emotion is defined by the displayed light emitted by at least one of the lamps, wherein the emotion is further defined by the at least one emission time length of at least one of the lamps. 
   
   
       4 . The electronic toy according to  claim 3 , further comprising a micro control unit (MCU), wherein the MCU accesses the color-emotion table to obtain the at least one emission time length according to the emotion and transmits the emission time length to the controller. 
   
   
       5 . The electronic toy according to  claim 4 , wherein the controller controls the lamps to emit at least one colored light with at least one intensity, wherein the intensity corresponds to the emission time length. 
   
   
       6 . The electronic toy according to  claim 5 , wherein the light mixer mixes the at least one colored light with the at least one intensity to generate a resultant colored light to display the emotion. 
   
   
       7 . A method of displaying an emotion for an electronic toy, wherein the toy comprises a plurality of lamps, the method comprising:
 determining an emotion of the electronic toy;   accessing a color-emotion table to obtain at least one emission time length according to the emotion;   turning on or turning off at least one lamp according to the at least one emission time length;   emitting different colored light with different intensities according to the at least one emission time length; and   mixing the different colored light to generate a resultant color light to display the emotion of the electronic toy.   
   
   
       8 . The method according to  claim 7 , wherein the lamps emit light of three primary colors.
