Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of vehicles, in particular to a pre-starting method of an intelligent cockpit host and a vehicle. BACKGROUND

[0002] In recent years, with the continuous pursuit of vehicle intelligence, intelligent cockpit technology has developed rapidly. Intelligent cockpit can bring drivers and passengers a safer, more comfortable and intelligent driving experience.

[0003] In the related art, an intelligent cockpit contains a large number of software and hardware devices and module systems, and integrates multiple functions such as control, perception, entertainment, communication, etc. The intelligent cockpit host, as the core component of the intelligent cockpit, is mainly used to realize logic processing, data interaction and component control involved in the execution of these functions. However, the more complex the functions of the intelligent cockpit are, the higher the requirement for the operation capacity of the intelligent cockpit host is, and thus the higher the cost of the intelligent cockpit is.

[0004] However, in the medium and low-end market, due to cost considerations, most intelligent cockpit hosts have very limited operation capacity, which results in a long boot-up time of many intelligent cockpit hosts, and users need to wait for a period of time after starting the vehicle to operate the host screen, which brings poor user experience. SUMMARY

[0005] Therefore, the present application provides a pre-starting method of an intelligent cockpit host and a vehicle, which can pre-start the intelligent cockpit host, reduce the waiting time of users after getting into the vehicle, and improve user experience.

[0006] The present application specifically adopts the following technical solutions:

[0007] The first aspect of the present application is to provide a pre-starting method of an intelligent cockpit host, which comprises:

[0008] When the target vehicle is in an off and lock state, a pairing call signal is sent to the surroundings of the target vehicle, the pairing call signal carrying a pairing request for a target key, the target key being a key bound with the target vehicle;

[0009] In response to successful pairing with the target key, the intelligent cockpit host of the target vehicle is controlled to enter a pre-starting state, and the center control screen of the target vehicle is controlled to remain closed.

[0010] Optionally, the sending of the pairing call signal to the surroundings of the target vehicle comprises:

[0011] When the target vehicle is detected to be in a locked and off state, the vehicle's body domain controller is controlled to activate the antenna module, so that the antenna module sends the pairing call signal to the vicinity of the target vehicle.

[0012] Optionally, after sending a pairing call signal to the vicinity of the target vehicle, the method further includes:

[0013] The system receives a pairing response signal sent by a key located within a preset signal range, where the preset signal range is the signal range covered by the pairing call signal. The pairing response signal carries an identifier of the key, wherein the key sends the pairing response signal to the target vehicle after receiving the pairing call signal.

[0014] The legality of the key is verified based on its identifier;

[0015] When the legality verification passes, the key is determined to be the target key;

[0016] In response to the establishment of communication between the target vehicle and the target key, it is determined that the target vehicle and the target key have been successfully paired.

[0017] Optionally, before sending a pairing call signal to the vicinity of the target vehicle, the method includes:

[0018] In response to a vehicle locking command for the target vehicle, the central control screen of the target vehicle is turned off, while the smart cockpit host remains powered on, so that the target vehicle enters a locked and off state.

[0019] Optionally, after the target vehicle enters the engine-off and vehicle-locked state, the method further includes:

[0020] When the target key is detected to be within a preset signal range and the remaining battery power of the target vehicle is higher than a power threshold, the smart cockpit host is controlled to remain powered on. The preset signal range is the signal range covered by the pairing call signal.

[0021] Optionally, after the target vehicle enters the engine-off and vehicle-locked state, the method further includes:

[0022] When the target key is detected to leave the preset signal range, the smart cockpit host is powered down. The preset signal range is the signal range covered by the pairing call signal.

[0023] or,

[0024] When the remaining battery power of the target vehicle is detected to be lower than or equal to the power threshold, the smart cockpit host is powered down.

[0025] Optionally, after the smart cockpit main unit is powered down, the method further includes:

[0026] In response to a failure to pair with the target key at a first moment and a successful pairing with the target key at a second moment, the system controls the smart cockpit host to power on and enter the pre-start state, and controls the central control screen of the target vehicle to remain off. The first moment and the second moment are two adjacent moments, and the second moment is after the first moment.

[0027] Optionally, after the intelligent cockpit main unit enters the pre-start state, the method further includes:

[0028] When an unlock command for the target vehicle is received and the target door of the target vehicle is detected to be open, the central control screen is controlled to turn on.

[0029] Optionally, after the intelligent cockpit main unit enters the pre-start state, the method further includes:

[0030] If no unlocking command for the target vehicle is received within a preset time period, the smart cockpit host is powered down.

[0031] Another aspect of this application is to provide a vehicle for performing the above-described smart cockpit host pre-start method.

[0032] The smart cockpit host pre-start method provided in this application embodiment can automatically send pairing call signals to the surrounding area of ​​the target vehicle when the target vehicle is in a turned-off and locked state, requesting pairing with the target key of the target vehicle and establishing a communication connection. After the target vehicle successfully pairs with the target key, it can automatically control the smart cockpit host to enter a pre-start state. This enables the smart cockpit host to be pre-started before the user gets into the vehicle, even when the smart cockpit host has poor computing power. This allows the user to quickly use the relevant functions of the smart cockpit after getting in the vehicle, avoiding long waiting times caused by excessive startup time and improving the user experience. In addition, since the startup time of the central control screen is usually relatively short, in this method, the central control screen of the target vehicle remains off after the smart cockpit pre-start, which saves battery power and avoids unnecessary consumption.

These drawings and descriptions are not intended to limit the scope of the concept in any way, but rather to illustrate the concept of this application to those skilled in the art through reference to particular embodiments. Detailed Implementation

[0038] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0039] This application provides a method for pre-starting a smart cockpit main unit. Figure 1 This is a flowchart of the method. See also... Figure 1 The method can be executed by the target vehicle, and the method includes:

[0040] Step 101: When the target vehicle is in the off and locked state, send a pairing call signal to the surrounding area of ​​the target vehicle.

[0041] The target vehicle refers to a vehicle equipped with a smart cockpit. The target vehicle has a built-in first communication device capable of communicating with external devices. In this embodiment, the communication methods between the first communication device and external devices include, but are not limited to, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi (Wireless Fidelity), IrDA (Infrared Data Association), NFC (Near Field Communication), and RFID (Radio Frequency Identification). For example, the first communication device may include an antenna module, through which the target vehicle can transmit radio frequency signals.

[0042] The pairing call signal sent by the target vehicle to its surroundings carries a pairing request for a target key, which refers to the key bound to the target vehicle. The binding method may be, for example, that the target vehicle pre-stores the identifier of the target key. In some embodiments, the target vehicle can be bound to multiple target keys simultaneously, and correspondingly, the target vehicle can store the identifiers of multiple target keys. In this application embodiment, the vehicle key may have a built-in second communication device. The second communication device and the first communication device are of the same type, so that the second communication device can communicate with the vehicle's first communication device. For example, when the first communication device includes a first antenna module, the second communication device may include a second antenna module, so that the key can receive the pairing call signal sent by the vehicle through the first antenna module and send a pairing response signal through the second antenna module.

[0043] In practice, after the target vehicle transmits a pairing call signal to its surroundings, if at least one key exists within the coverage area of ​​the pairing call signal, then at least one key can receive the pairing call signal and, in response to the pairing request in the pairing call signal, send a pairing response signal to the target vehicle. Only the target key bound to the target vehicle can successfully pair with the target vehicle.

[0044] Step 102: In response to successful pairing with the target key, the smart cockpit host of the target vehicle enters the pre-start state, and the central control screen of the target vehicle remains closed.

[0045] When the target vehicle is in the off and locked state, the central control screen of the target vehicle is turned off, and the smart cockpit host is either powered on or powered off.

[0046] When the target vehicle and target key are successfully paired, the central control screen of the target vehicle remains off. If the smart cockpit host is powered on at this time, it enters the pre-start state; if the smart cockpit host is powered off at this time, it is first powered on and then enters the pre-start state.

[0047] In summary, the smart cockpit host pre-start method provided in this application can automatically send pairing call signals to the surrounding area of ​​the target vehicle when the target vehicle is in a locked and off state, requesting pairing with the target key of the target vehicle and establishing a communication connection. After the target vehicle successfully pairs with the target key, it can automatically control the smart cockpit host to enter a pre-start state. This allows for pre-starting of the smart cockpit host before the user gets in the vehicle, even when the host's computing power is relatively low. This enables the user to quickly use the relevant functions of the smart cockpit after entering the vehicle, avoiding long waiting times caused by excessively long startup times and improving the user experience. Furthermore, since the startup time of the central control screen is usually relatively short, in this method, the central control screen of the target vehicle remains off after the smart cockpit pre-start, thus saving battery power and avoiding unnecessary consumption.

[0048] Figure 2 This is a flowchart of another intelligent cockpit main unit pre-start method provided in an embodiment of this application. See also... Figure 2 The subject executing this method can be the target vehicle, and the method can include:

[0049] Step 201: In response to the vehicle locking command for the target vehicle, control the central control screen of the target vehicle to turn off, while keeping the smart cockpit host powered on, so that the target vehicle enters the engine off and locked state.

[0050] The vehicle locking command can be triggered by the user via the target key or automatically by the vehicle itself. For example, when a user needs to leave the vehicle after turning off the engine, they can press the lock button on the target key to trigger the locking command. This command is sent via a second communication device and received by the target vehicle's first communication device. Upon receiving the locking command, the target vehicle controls the central control screen to turn off while keeping the smart cockpit host powered on, thus putting the vehicle into a locked-off state. In another example, after the user turns off the engine, based on the communication connection between the first and second communication devices, the target vehicle detects the location of the target key in real-time or periodically. When the target key is detected to be outside a preset vehicle range, the target vehicle automatically issues a locking command, controls the central control screen to turn off, and keeps the smart cockpit host powered on, thus putting the vehicle into a locked-off state.

[0051] Step 202: When the target vehicle is detected to be in the off and locked state, the vehicle's body domain controller is controlled to activate the antenna module so that the antenna module sends a pairing call signal to the surrounding area of ​​the target vehicle.

[0052] In this embodiment, the first communication device may include an antenna module, such as a high-performance low-frequency antenna. The vehicle domain controller can continuously or periodically activate the high-performance low-frequency antenna to generate a low-frequency electromagnetic field. When activated, the high-performance low-frequency antenna can emit a pairing call signal to the vicinity of the target vehicle and form a low-frequency electromagnetic field within a preset signal range covered by the pairing call signal. The pairing call signal carries a pairing request with an identifier for obtaining the key.

[0053] Step 203: Receive the pairing response signal sent by the key located within the preset signal range.

[0054] When the key enters the low-frequency electromagnetic field activated by the high-performance low-frequency antenna, the key's second communication device will send a pairing response signal through the coupling effect of the magnetic field.

[0055] In practice, when at least one key is present within the preset signal range, at least one key will receive a pairing call signal and parse the pairing request in the pairing call signal; then, at least one key that received the pairing call signal will send a pairing response signal to the target vehicle, and the pairing response signal carries the key's identifier.

[0056] Step 204: Verify the legality of the key based on the key identifier in the pairing response signal.

[0057] The target key is a key that is bound to the target vehicle. The binding method can be, for example, by pre-storing the target key's identifier in the target vehicle.

[0058] In practice, after the target vehicle receives the pairing response signal, it can parse the pairing response signal to obtain the identifier of the key it carries. Then, the obtained key identifier is verified and compared with the identifier of the target key pre-stored in the target vehicle.

[0059] If the identifier of the key obtained is different from the identifier of the target key pre-stored in the target vehicle, the validity verification fails, it is determined that the key corresponding to that identifier is not the target key, and the pairing between the target vehicle and that key fails. Next, the same method is used to verify and compare the key identifiers carried in other pairing response signals received by the target vehicle.

[0060] If the identifier of the key obtained is the same as the identifier of the target key pre-stored in the target vehicle, the legality verification is passed, the key corresponding to the identifier is determined to be the target key, the first communication device establishes communication with the key, and the target vehicle and the target key are successfully paired.

[0061] If the target vehicle fails to pair with a nearby key, it means the target key is outside the preset signal range. At this point, the user is usually far from the target vehicle and has no need to use it. Therefore, the smart cockpit host can be powered down to save power, and the process can proceed to step 206. If the target vehicle successfully pairs with the target key, it means the target key is within the preset signal range. The preset signal range refers to the signal range covered by the pairing call signal. In this case, the process can continue to step 205.

[0062] Step 205: Detect the remaining battery power of the target vehicle.

[0063] After confirming that the target vehicle and the target key have been successfully paired, the target vehicle checks the remaining battery power of the low-voltage battery.

[0064] When the remaining battery power is higher than the power threshold, it means that the battery has sufficient power. The system will keep the smart cockpit host powered on to respond to the user's needs in a timely manner and avoid the smart cockpit restarting time being too long, which would cause the user to wait for a long time.

[0065] When the remaining battery power is lower than or equal to the power threshold, it indicates that the remaining battery power is insufficient. The system will then power down the smart cockpit host to conserve power and prevent the target vehicle from failing to start.

[0066] In some embodiments of this application, after the target vehicle enters the engine off and locked state, the remaining battery power of the low-voltage battery can be detected immediately. When the remaining battery power is lower than or equal to the power threshold, the smart cockpit host can be directly powered down.

[0067] Step 206: When the target key is detected to re-enter the preset signal range, the intelligent cockpit host is powered on and enters the pre-start state, while the central control screen remains off.

[0068] In some embodiments of this application, the re-entry of the target key into the preset signal range can be detected as follows: when it is detected that the target vehicle and the target key failed to pair at a first moment, and successfully paired at a second moment, it is determined that the target key has re-entered the preset signal range. Here, the first moment and the second moment are two adjacent moments, and the second moment is after the first moment. It should be noted that in some embodiments, when the target vehicle's antenna module periodically sends a pairing call signal, the first moment and the second moment can be moments corresponding to two adjacent cycles.

[0069] When the target key is within the preset signal range, a communication connection is maintained between the target key and the target vehicle. When the target key leaves the preset signal range, the communication connection between the target key and the target vehicle is broken. If the target key re-enters the preset signal range, in response to the pairing call signal continuously output by the antenna module, the target vehicle will receive the pairing response signal from the target key and re-establish a communication connection with the target key, successfully pairing. Therefore, if the target vehicle and the target key failed to pair at one moment, but pairing is successful at the next moment, it can be determined that the target key has re-entered the preset signal range.

[0070] Step 207: When an unlock command for the target vehicle is received and the target vehicle door is detected to be open, the central control screen is turned on.

[0071] In some embodiments of this application, the target vehicle door is the driver's side door. The driver's side door may include a driver's cab door and a passenger compartment door, wherein the driver's cab door may include the driver's side door and the front passenger side door, and the passenger compartment door may include the rear doors. After the smart cockpit host enters the pre-start state, when it receives an unlock command for the target vehicle and detects that any driver's side door of the target vehicle is open, it can be determined that the user currently has a need to use the vehicle, and therefore the central control screen can be controlled to open.

[0072] In some other embodiments of this application, the target door is the driver's side door. After the smart cockpit host enters the pre-start state, when it receives an unlock command for the target vehicle and detects that the driver's side door of the target vehicle is open, it can be determined that the user currently has a driving need, and therefore the central control screen can be controlled to open.

[0073] Since the central control screen turns on immediately after the target car door is opened, users can directly use the functions of the smart cockpit and the central control screen after getting into the car, without having to wait for it to start, thus improving the user experience.

[0074] In some embodiments of this application, the unlock command can be issued manually by the user. In one example, the target key is provided with an unlock button, which the user can press to issue an unlock command. Of course, the user can also issue an unlock command manually through other unlocking methods.

[0075] In other embodiments of this application, the unlocking command may also be automatically issued by the target vehicle. In some examples, the unlocking command is automatically generated when the target vehicle detects that a user carrying the target key has entered a preset unlocking range. Of course, the vehicle may also automatically generate the unlocking command when other unlocking conditions are met.

[0076] In some embodiments of this application, source information can be generated based on the two sources of the unlocking command described above, and the source information can be carried in the unlocking command.

[0077] For unlock commands triggered manually by the user, in this embodiment of the application, the method after step 206 may further include:

[0078] If no unlocking command for the target vehicle is received within the first preset time period, the intelligent cockpit host is powered down; if an unlocking command for the target vehicle is received, and no target door of the target vehicle is detected to be open, the intelligent cockpit host is kept powered on, and the central control screen is kept off.

[0079] When a user manually triggers an unlock command, if no unlock command for the target vehicle is received within the first preset time period after the smart cockpit host enters the pre-start state, it indicates that the user does not currently need to use the vehicle. Therefore, to reduce power consumption, the smart cockpit host can be powered down, and when the user re-enters the preset signal range, the smart cockpit host can be powered on again and enter the pre-start state. If an unlock command for the target vehicle is received, but no door opening is detected, the user may be retrieving items from the trunk or saying goodbye to friends before departure. In either case, there is a possibility that the user will need to use the vehicle. Therefore, in this case, the smart cockpit host should be kept powered on to respond promptly, while the central control screen should be kept off to reduce power consumption.

[0080] For unlocking commands whose source information is vehicle-triggered automatic, after step 206, the method may further include:

[0081] If no unlocking command is received for the target vehicle within the first preset time period, the smart cockpit host is powered down; if an unlocking command is received for the target vehicle and no door is detected to be open within the second preset time period, the vehicle is locked and the smart cockpit host is powered down.

[0082] In cases where the vehicle automatically triggers an unlock command, after the smart cockpit main unit enters the pre-start state, if no unlock command for the target vehicle is received within the first preset time period, it indicates that the user currently has no need to use the vehicle. Therefore, to reduce power consumption, the smart cockpit main unit can be powered down, and when the user re-enters the preset signal range, the smart cockpit main unit will be powered on again and enter the pre-start state. If an unlock command for the target vehicle is received, but no door opening is detected within the second preset time period, the user may simply be passing by the vehicle without any need to use it. Therefore, the vehicle will be locked and the smart cockpit main unit will be powered down to reduce power consumption. When the user re-enters the preset signal range, the smart cockpit main unit will be powered on again and enter the pre-start state.

[0083] In summary, the smart cockpit host pre-start method provided in this application can automatically send pairing call signals to the surrounding area of ​​the target vehicle when the target vehicle is in a locked and off state, requesting pairing with the target key of the target vehicle and establishing a communication connection. After the target vehicle successfully pairs with the target key, it can automatically control the smart cockpit host to enter a pre-start state. This allows for pre-starting of the smart cockpit host before the user gets in the vehicle, even when the host's computing power is relatively low. This enables the user to quickly use the relevant functions of the smart cockpit after entering the vehicle, avoiding long waiting times caused by excessively long startup times and improving the user experience. Furthermore, since the startup time of the central control screen is usually relatively short, in this method, the central control screen of the target vehicle remains off after the smart cockpit pre-start, thus saving battery power and avoiding unnecessary consumption.

[0084] This application also provides a vehicle equipped with a smart cockpit and a controller for executing the smart cockpit host pre-start method described in any of the above embodiments.

[0085] Figure 3 A system architecture diagram of a vehicle provided in an embodiment of this application is shown. Figure 3 As shown, the vehicle may include a smart cockpit host 1, a central control screen 2, a body domain controller 3, an antenna module 4, a target key 5, and a low-voltage battery 6.

[0086] The intelligent cockpit host 1 is used for logic processing, signal processing, data interaction, and control of cockpit functional components for various intelligent cockpit functions. The central control screen 2 provides the operating interface and receives user-triggered operation signals, transmitting these signals to the intelligent cockpit host 1. The body domain controller 3 determines the current vehicle status and activates the antenna module 4 to issue a pairing call signal for searching the target key 5 and receive pairing response signals from the key. The antenna module 4 may include a high-performance low-frequency antenna, used to activate a low-frequency electromagnetic field under the drive of the body domain controller 3, thereby issuing a pairing call signal and receiving a pairing response signal, and transmitting relevant information to the body domain controller 3. The target key 5 is bound to the target vehicle to determine the user's legitimacy and establish communication with the antenna module 4. The low-voltage battery 6 provides energy for the vehicle's low-voltage electrical appliances.

[0087] The vehicle provided in this application embodiment, by executing the aforementioned smart cockpit host pre-start method, can automatically send a pairing call signal to its surroundings when the vehicle is in a locked and ignited state, requesting pairing with a target key and establishing a communication connection. After successful pairing with the target key, the vehicle can automatically control the smart cockpit host to enter a pre-start state. This allows for pre-starting of the smart cockpit host before the user gets in the vehicle, even when the host's processing power is relatively low. This enables the user to quickly use the relevant functions of the smart cockpit after entering the vehicle, avoiding long waiting times caused by excessively long startup times and improving the user experience. Furthermore, since the startup time of the central control screen is usually relatively short, in this vehicle, the central control screen remains off after the smart cockpit pre-start, thus saving battery power and avoiding unnecessary consumption.
