WeChat-style UI

ai_ui_chat_wechat is a WeChat-style bubble chat UI for the TuyaOpen AI framework. It shows the conversation as a scrolling thread of bubbles — the user's messages on the right, the AI's replies on the left — the look people already know from messaging apps. It implements the ai_ui_manage interface, so once registered it renders every chat message, emotion, status, camera frame, and picture the framework dispatches.

When to choose it​

Choose the WeChat-style UI when your product has a color LCD with enough resolution and memory for a graphical, multi-message thread. It is the richest of the three built-in styles: it keeps recent history on screen, streams AI replies word by word, and can show camera previews and pictures. For a single centered message use the Chatbot UI; for a small monochrome screen use the OLED UI.

Enable it​

Register the style, then initialize the UI module. Registration runs first because ai_ui_init() invokes the style's disp_init callback:

#include "ai_ui_chat_wechat.h"
#include "ai_ui_manage.h"

// Register the WeChat-style UI, then initialize the UI module.
ai_ui_chat_wechat_register();
ai_ui_init();

ai_ui_chat_wechat_register() returns OPERATE_RET (OPRT_OK on success). It is the only function this style exposes — after it runs, you drive the screen entirely through ai_ui_manage.

note

Register exactly one UI style before calling ai_ui_init(). After initialization, send messages with ai_ui_disp_msg() — see UI Management.
