[0035] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0036] The embodiment of the present invention provides a method for reminding a driver to operate based on weather conditions, comprising the steps of:

[0037] S1. Obtain the temperature in real time and match the corresponding image in the corresponding temperature database;

[0038] S2. Real-time weather information is obtained, the corresponding animation is matched in the preset information database, and the audio and video of the corresponding operation are matched in the preset operation library;

[0039] S3. Combine the image with the animation, embed it into the video and play it synchronously with the audio.

[0040] It is foreseeable that in some other embodiments, the order of step S1 and step S2 can be swapped or performed simultaneously.

[0041] In the above step S1, a plurality of digital human images in different attire are stored in the temperature database, and each digital human object in attire corresponds to a temperature range. When the temperature is obtained, the temperature range described by the obtained temperature is first determined, and a matching search is performed in the temperature database according to the temperature range to find the digital human image in attire corresponding to the temperature range.

[0042] As shown in Table 1, a specific embodiment of temperature ranges and clothing is provided, wherein the temperature unit is Celsius as an example. In other embodiments, the unit may also be Fahrenheit. The temperature range may also be divided in other forms according to actual conditions. The form of clothing may also be redefined according to different situations. However, the clothing and temperature range are one-to-one corresponding.

[0043] For example, when the temperature is greater than 33 degrees Celsius, the digital person's attire may be a short top and a short skirt or shorts. When the temperature range is 28-33 degrees Celsius, the digital person's attire may be a thin shirt on the upper body and a thin long skirt on the lower body. When the temperature range is 25-28 degrees Celsius, the digital person's attire may be a T-shirt on the upper body and jeans on the lower body. When the temperature range is 20-25 degrees Celsius, the digital person's attire may be a shirt inside and a windbreaker or jacket outside. When the temperature range is 15-20 degrees Celsius, the digital person's attire may be a shirt inside and a coat outside. When the temperature range is 5-15 degrees Celsius, the digital person's attire may be a sweater inside and a mountaineering suit outside. When the temperature range is -15-5 degrees Celsius, the digital person's attire may be a cotton coat or a thick wool coat. When the temperature is less than -15 degrees Celsius, the digital person's attire may be a down jacket. The digital people use clothing to indicate the temperature, which adds interest and displays the corresponding weather temperature more intuitively.

[0044] Table 1

[0045]

[0046]

[0047] In the above step S2, the weather information includes two categories, namely the first category weather and the second category weather. Among them, the weather information must include the first category weather, and in addition, it can also include the second category weather. In the information database, the first category weather is divided into multiple types, each weather corresponds to a digital human action animation. In the information database, the second category weather is also divided into multiple phenomena, each phenomenon includes multiple weather names, and each multiple weather name corresponds to a background animation.

[0048] When the weather information only has the first type of weather, the action animation of the digital human corresponding to the weather is found and used to be combined with the image of the dressed digital human in step S1 to form the dressed digital human performing the corresponding action.

[0049] When the weather information includes both the first and second types of weather, the action animation of the digital human corresponding to the weather in the first type of weather is found, and the background animation corresponding to the weather in the second type of weather is found, and they are combined with the image of the digital human dressed in step S1 to form a digital human dressed performing corresponding actions under the corresponding background animation.

[0050] The first type of weather information includes common weather, liquid precipitation, solid precipitation and mixed precipitation. Among them, common weather includes sunny, cloudy and overcast, and the corresponding action is no action, that is, the initial action state is kept unchanged. As shown in Table 2, an action animation embodiment corresponding to each type of weather in the first type of weather is provided. For example, liquid precipitation phenomena include rain, showers and drizzle, and the corresponding action animation can be a digital person holding an umbrella. Solid precipitation phenomena include snow, snow showers, sleet, sleet, ice particles and hail, and the corresponding action animation can be a digital person wearing a hat and gloves. Mixed precipitation phenomena include sleet and showery sleet, and the corresponding action animation can be a digital person wearing a raincoat. It can be foreseen that in other embodiments, the action animation corresponding to each weather can be changed according to the actual situation, but it must match the previous weather.

[0051] Table 2

[0052]

[0053] The second type of weather mentioned above includes multiple phenomena, each phenomenon includes multiple weather names, and the processing module is also used to match the corresponding background animation in the information database according to each weather name.

[0054] The second type of weather includes ground condensation, visibility obstruction, lightning and other phenomena. Ground condensation includes dew, frost, rime and rime; visibility obstruction includes fog, light mist, blowing snow, snowstorm, smoke screen, haze, sandstorm, blowing sand and floating dust; lightning includes thunderstorm, lightning and aurora; other phenomena include strong wind, squall, tornado, dust devil, ice needle, snow accumulation and ice, etc. Among them, the background animation can show the corresponding picture according to the specific weather name. For example, when the second type of weather is thunderstorm, the background animation will show the scene of thunderstorm; when the second type of weather is sandstorm, the background animation will show the scene of sandstorm. The names of the second type of weather are shown in Table 3. It can be understood that Table 3 is an embodiment of the second type of weather. In actual application, different scenes can be divided according to different situations.

[0055] Table 3

[0056]

[0057] In the above step S2, in addition to the animation matching of the first and second types of weather, according to the weather information, it is also necessary to match the audio and video of the corresponding operation in the operation library, that is, to remind the driver of the operation to be performed according to the weather information, and to demonstrate the operation process. For example, if it is raining and the wiper needs to be turned on, the corresponding audio and video will be found in the operation library, that is, the audio prompts that it is raining and the road is slippery, and the wiper needs to be turned on, and the video shows how to turn on the wiper. When the weather information does not find the corresponding operation in the operation library, it means that the corresponding operation is not required in the current weather, then a fixed-screen video will appear, and the audio prompts that no operation is required.

[0058] In the above step S3, the combined digital human animation is embedded in the video and played synchronously with the corresponding audio, which increases the driver's experience and improves the driving pleasure. It can not only remind the driver of relevant operations and improve driving efficiency, but also enhance the sense of interaction and relieve the driver's driving fatigue. It can be understood that when the current weather does not require the corresponding operation, only the digital human with the corresponding animation in the specified clothing can be displayed, and the audio that does not require the operation can be played synchronously.

[0059] like Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of a system for reminding a driver to operate based on weather is provided, which can be used to implement the above method embodiment. The system includes a temperature acquisition module 1, a weather information module 2, a storage module 3, a processing module 4 and a playback module 5.

[0060] Specifically, the temperature acquisition module 1 and the weather information module 2 are both connected to the on-board computer. The temperature acquisition module 1 obtains the real-time temperature through the on-board computer, and the weather information module 2 obtains the real-time weather information through the on-board computer. The on-board computer can obtain the above information of the current location based on the network connection.

[0061] The storage module 2 includes a temperature database 21, an information database 22 and an operation database 23. The temperature database 21 stores a plurality of images, the information database 22 stores a plurality of animations, and the operation database 23 stores a plurality of videos and corresponding audios.

[0062] The processing module 3 is used to match the image corresponding to the temperature in the temperature database 21, match the animation corresponding to the weather information in the information database 22, and match the audio and video of the operation corresponding to the weather information in the operation library 23; the processing module 3 is also used to combine the image with the animation and then embed it into the corresponding video.

[0063] The playing module 4 is used to synchronously play the video and audio processed by the processing module 3.

[0064] Furthermore, the temperature database 21 stores multiple digital human images in different outfits, and each digital human object in different outfits corresponds to a temperature range. The processing module 3 is also used to determine the temperature range to which the temperature acquired by the temperature acquisition module 1 belongs, and match the digital human image in the outfit corresponding to the temperature range in the temperature database 21.

[0065] The weather information acquired by the weather information module 2 includes the first type of weather and may also include the second type of weather. The first type of weather is divided into multiple types, and in the information database 22, each type of weather corresponds to an action animation of a digital human. The second type of weather is divided into multiple phenomena, and each phenomenon includes multiple weather names. In the information database 22, each of the multiple weather names corresponds to a background animation.

[0066] It is understandable that the information database 22 can store multiple entries, and the entries can be in the form of a digital human action animation corresponding to each weather, and in addition, the entries can also be in the form of a background animation corresponding to each of the multiple weather names. In some embodiments, the information database 22 can also be divided into two sub-databases, the first sub-database stores the digital human action animation corresponding to the first type of weather, and the second sub-database stores the digital human action animation corresponding to the second type of weather.

[0067] The processing module 3 is also used to match the action animation of the digital human in the information database 22 according to the first type of weather, and display it in combination with the processed image of the digital human in clothing. The processing module 3 is also used to match the corresponding background animation in the information database 22 according to each weather name, and combine the digital human image, the action animation and the background animation.

[0068] The processing module 3 is also used to find a matching video and corresponding audio in the operation library 23 according to the weather information, so as to remind the driver of the operation to be performed and the process demonstration of the operation. When the processing module 3 does not find the corresponding video and audio in the operation library 23, it means that the corresponding operation is not required under the current weather, then a video with a fixed picture can be displayed, and an audio prompt is not required.

[0069] In some embodiments, the playback module 4 includes a display screen for playing the video and audio processed by the processing module 3. In other embodiments, the playback module 4 does not include a display screen, but the playback module 4 is connected to the vehicle display screen, and the video and audio processed by the processing module 3 are synchronously played through the vehicle display screen and speakers on the car. In addition, the video and audio processed by the processing module 3 can be synchronously transmitted to the mobile phone through the vehicle computer through the network. When the vehicle display screen is occupied or there is no vehicle display screen, the video and audio are played through the mobile phone screen. On this basis, the driver can also interact with the digital human. When the driver clicks the screen, the digital human can appear other matching set actions or make other sounds.

[0070] In the above weather information, the first type of weather information includes common weather, liquid precipitation phenomena, solid precipitation phenomena and mixed precipitation phenomena. Among them, common weather includes sunny, cloudy and overcast, and the corresponding action is no action, that is, keeping the initial action state unchanged. Liquid precipitation phenomena include rain, showers and drizzle, and the corresponding action animation can be a digital person holding an umbrella. Solid precipitation phenomena include snow, snow showers, sleet, sleet, ice particles and hail, and the corresponding action animation can be a digital person wearing a hat and gloves. Mixed precipitation phenomena include sleet and sleet showers, and the corresponding action animation can be a digital person wearing a raincoat.

[0071] The above-mentioned second type of weather includes ground condensation, visibility obstruction, lightning and other phenomena. The first type of weather information includes common weather, liquid precipitation, solid precipitation and mixed precipitation. The second type of weather includes ground condensation, visibility obstruction, lightning and other phenomena. Ground condensation phenomena include dew, frost, rime and rime; visibility obstruction phenomena include fog, light fog, blowing snow, snowstorms, smoke screens, haze, sandstorms, blowing sand and floating dust; lightning phenomena include thunderstorms, lightning and aurora; other phenomena include strong winds, squalls, tornadoes, dust devils, ice needles, snow accumulation and ice, etc. Among them, the background animation can display the corresponding picture according to the specific weather name. For example, when the second type of weather is a thunderstorm, the background animation will show the scene of the thunderstorm; when the second type of weather is a sandstorm, the background animation will show the scene of the sandstorm.

[0072] When playing audio and video, the playback module 4 needs to combine the previously combined digital human animation. For example, when the temperature range is 28-33 degrees Celsius, when a sunny day suddenly turns into a rainy day, the digital human displayed on the screen is dressed in a thin shirt and a thin long skirt, and an umbrella action animation is added. If there is lightning at the same time, a background animation with lightning will appear. At the same time, the playback module 4 will play the first type of weather type and the current temperature through audio to remind the driver to pay attention to the slippery road and remind the driver to turn on the wipers. At the same time, it will combine the operation video of turning on the wipers, and embed the synthesized digital human animation in the operation video.

[0073] For another example, the temperature range is 25-28 degrees Celsius, the digital human shown on the screen is wearing a T-shirt on the upper body and jeans on the lower body, the first type of weather is cloudy, so the digital human remains in the initial state without any other action, if the second type of weather is foggy, the playback module 4 will play the first type of weather type, the second type of weather name and the current temperature through audio to remind the driver of low road visibility, and at the same time combine the operation video of turning on the fog lights, and embed the synthesized digital human animation in the operation video. In order not to block the operation video, the operation video can be played in the middle of the screen, and the synthesized digital human animation can be played in the lower right corner or lower left corner of the screen.

[0074] Another specific embodiment is provided below to illustrate the method for reminding the driver of the operation based on the weather. In this embodiment, the temperature is first obtained, and then the weather information is obtained. The specific steps are as follows:

[0075] A101. The temperature acquisition module 1 obtains the current temperature from the network through the on-board computer and transmits the temperature to the processing module 4 in the form of data.

[0076] A102. The processing module 4 determines the temperature range to which the current temperature belongs, and performs a matching search for the temperature range in the temperature database 21.

[0077] A103. The processing module 4 matches the image corresponding to the temperature range in the temperature database 21, that is, the image of the digital human in the corresponding clothing.

[0078] A104. The weather information module 2 obtains the current weather information from the network through the on-board computer and transmits it to the processing module 4 in the form of data.

[0079] A105. The processing module 4 determines whether the weather information includes only the first type of weather, or both the first type of weather and the second type of weather. If it includes only the first type of weather, the corresponding action animation is directly found in the information database 22; if it includes both the first type of weather and the second type of weather, the action animation corresponding to the first type of weather is directly found in the information database 22, and the background animation corresponding to the weather name in the second type of weather is also found in the information database 22.

[0080] A106. The processing module 4 finds the video and audio of the corresponding operation in the operation library 23 according to the weather information. If the corresponding video and audio are not found in the operation library 23, the processing module uses the fixed picture as the video and prompts that no operation is required through the audio.

[0081] A107. The processing module 4 combines the digital human image with corresponding clothing obtained from the temperature database 21 and the corresponding action animation found in the information database 22 (when there is the second type of weather, the corresponding background animation is also required), embeds it into the corresponding video found in the operation library 23, and transmits it to the playback module 5 synchronously with the corresponding audio.

[0082] A108. When the playback module 5 receives the final audio and video processed by the processing module 4, it plays the audio and video synchronously through its own or connected display screen to remind the driver of the current temperature, weather information, and corresponding operation content, so that the driver can easily perform the corresponding operation and improve safety during driving.
