Moreover, the specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described may be combined in any one or more embodiments or examples in a suitable manner.

[0051] Reference Figure 1The embodiment of the present invention provides a method for controlling vehicle odor based on online car-hailing. This embodiment can be applied to Figure 2 Within a server of the system shown. Figure 2 The system shown includes a user terminal, a server and a vehicle terminal. The user terminal is provided with a network module, a taxi-hailing software and an image acquisition device. The taxi-hailing software and the image acquisition device interact with the server through the network module. The vehicle terminal is provided with a touch screen, an odor generation module and a vehicle gateway. The touch screen and the odor generation module interact with the server through the vehicle gateway.

[0052] During the application process, this embodiment includes the following steps:

[0053] S11. Determine whether the user terminal has completed the online car-hailing reservation, and obtain the user image uploaded by the user terminal.

[0054] In this embodiment, when a user wants to take an online car-hailing service, he can enter the designated interface through the taxi-hailing software on his terminal to perform the vehicle reservation operation process. When the reservation is successfully completed, the personal image can also be collected through the image acquisition device on the current terminal. If the user corresponding to the current terminal needs to take an online car-hailing service, the image of the current user can be collected in real time through the current terminal; if other users need to take an online car-hailing service, that is, the user of the current terminal is booking a vehicle for others, the image of the user who needs to take the vehicle can be uploaded through the current terminal.

[0055] S12: Generate customized smell information of the current passenger according to the user image.

[0056] In this embodiment, the user image uploaded by the user terminal may contain other content. For example, when a user makes a vehicle reservation while shopping, the collected image may contain other passers-by, which will reduce the accuracy of the image analysis result. Based on this, this embodiment first crops the user image to obtain a target image containing the target user, and the target image reduces most of the interference information relative to the original image. Then, the facial features and hairstyle features in the target image are extracted, and the personal information of the current passenger is predicted based on the facial features and hairstyle features, wherein the personal information includes gender information, age information and personality characteristics information. Then, the customized odor information of the current passenger is obtained by matching from the preset database based on the personal information. In this embodiment, the facial features and hairstyle features of the user can effectively determine the user's age, gender and the user's personality characteristics and other information. The preset database is provided with multiple in-vehicle fresh odor information, multiple different types of personal information, and a mapping relationship between the in-vehicle fresh odor information and the corresponding personal information. When the personal information of the actual user is predicted, the corresponding in-vehicle fresh odor information can be matched from the database as the customized odor information of the current user.

[0057] In this embodiment, after obtaining the customized smell information of the current user, the clothing information in the target image can be further extracted, and then the weather information of the current riding user's location is predicted based on the clothing information, and the customized smell information is adjusted based on the weather information. For example, when the weather is hot, the customized smell information can be adjusted to a refreshing smell information, thereby improving the riding experience of the user.

[0058] S13: Send the customized smell information to the user terminal.

[0059] In this embodiment, after the final customized smell information is determined, the customized smell information is sent to the user terminal so that the user can view the specific content and determine whether the smell is acceptable to the user, thereby facilitating the user to decide on the subsequent operation process.

[0060] S14: Receive selection information corresponding to the customized smell information uploaded by the user terminal.

[0061] In this embodiment, after the customized smell information is sent to the user terminal, the confirmation information uploaded by the user terminal is received. Specifically, when the user starts to take the online car-hailing service, the driver can upload the confirmation information of the user starting to take the vehicle through the vehicle terminal. After receiving the confirmation information, the server generates a playback query information of the customized smell information, and sends the playback query information to the user terminal to inquire the user whether the smell in the current vehicle needs to be changed to the smell corresponding to the customized smell information. Then, the selection information corresponding to the playback query information uploaded by the user terminal is received, and the selection information includes confirmation to change the smell in the vehicle to the smell corresponding to the customized smell information or not to change the smell in the vehicle to the smell corresponding to the customized smell information.

[0062] In this embodiment, after querying the user terminal, the information vehicle terminal can also be synchronized so that the driver can confirm whether to agree with other terminals to intervene in the vehicle terminal of the current vehicle. Specifically, the control query information of the vehicle terminal is generated according to the selection information, and after the control query information is sent to the vehicle terminal, the feedback information uploaded by the vehicle terminal is received. The feedback information includes confirmation of accepting the intervention control of the external terminal on the current vehicle terminal and not accepting the intervention control of the external terminal on the current vehicle terminal. This embodiment executes the subsequent steps only after multiple inquiries and feedback, thereby improving the orderliness of online car-hailing.

[0063] S15. Control the working state of the odor generation module on the vehicle-mounted terminal of the online car-hailing service according to the selection information.

[0064] In this embodiment, when it is determined that the selection information includes the play option selected by the current passenger, the odor generation module on the vehicle terminal is controlled to play the odor according to the customized odor information, so that the odor in the vehicle is changed to a odor acceptable to the user, thereby improving the user's riding experience. Specifically, when it is confirmed that the odor in the vehicle needs to be changed to the odor corresponding to the customized odor information, the customized odor information is sent to the odor generation module through the vehicle gateway, so that the odor generation module generates the corresponding odor. At the same time, in order to facilitate the driver and passengers to better understand the current odor information, the speaker on the vehicle terminal can also be controlled to play the relevant information of the odor.

[0065] In some embodiments, after the in-car odor changes to the odor corresponding to the customized odor information, an evaluation link is generated and sent to the user terminal, and then the evaluation information uploaded by the user terminal is obtained, wherein the evaluation information includes the evaluation of the odor corresponding to the customized odor information. When it is determined based on the evaluation information that the user prefers the odor, a product link of the customized odor information is generated based on the evaluation information, and the product link is sent to the user terminal so that the user can purchase the product that he or she prefers.

[0066] The embodiment of the present invention provides a vehicle-mounted odor control system based on online car-hailing, including:
