As the main means of transportation for people, how to drive a car safely has become the most important issue. According to the survey, 43% of traffic accidents each year are caused by drunk driving. At the same time, because the materials of the vehicle itself are easy to volatilize toxic and harmful gases in a high temperature environment, the materials carried by the vehicle often volatilize toxic and harmful gases, and the vehicle will pass through the path that is harmful to the human body during transportation, the safety of vehicle use has also been greatly affected. In response to this problem, the current main detection is through traditional alcohol sensors, air sensors and other equipment. Although it can meet the needs of use to a certain extent, on the one hand, the equipment structure is complex, the vehicle applicability is poor, and the vehicle structure needs to be greatly modified when it is installed and applied. At the same time, it can only detect specific gases, and the flexibility and convenience of application are relatively insufficient. On the other hand, the detection accuracy of the traditional sensor system is poor during operation, and it can often only roughly detect the gas composition, but cannot accurately detect the concentration of each component gas, so it is still difficult to effectively meet the actual application needs.

The method for using the automobile harmful gas detection system comprises the following steps: S1, system prefabrication, firstly installing a laser generator (1) and a photosensitive detector (2) in a vehicle cab and a vehicle compartment respectively, then embedding a signal processing circuit (3) and a system control circuit (4) in a vehicle driving computer circuit, and electrically connecting the signal processing circuit (3) and the system control circuit (4) to the vehicle driving computer respectively; S2, system setting, after completing step S1, firstly, the gas composition identification calculation program is input into the system control circuit (4), and then the signal processing circuit (3) is filtered and set to adjust the waveform and signal strength of the output signal of the signal processing circuit (3); S3, detection operation, after the vehicle is started, the laser generator (1), the photosensitive detector (2), the signal processing circuit (3), and the system control circuit (4) operate synchronously. First, the laser generator (1) generates a laser beam in the vehicle interior. When the energy of the laser beam passes through the vehicle interior, the gas components, solid components, and liquid components in the air environment absorb part of the laser energy of the corresponding wavelength band and transmit it to the photosensitive detector (2). After passing through the signal processing circuit (3), the laser signal is converted into a first harmonic electrical signal. At the same time, the gas components, solid components, and liquid components in the air environment in the vehicle interior and the corresponding vehicle body structure, objects, and personnel in the vehicle scatter the laser beam. The laser energy of the scattered and diffuse reflection is received synchronously by the photosensitive detector (2) at the same time, and the laser signal is converted into a second harmonic electric signal by the signal processing circuit (3). Finally, the first harmonic electric signal and the second harmonic electric signal are transmitted to the system control circuit (4). The system control circuit (4) and the TDLAS unit system of the system control circuit (4) perform calculation and identification on the received first harmonic electric signal and the second harmonic electric signal. The type and concentration of the air components in the vehicle compartment can be obtained according to the attenuation of the laser energy, and the harmful gas alarm can be issued through the system control circuit (4) and the vehicle's driving computer for the gas components that threaten the driving safety.
