Attached Figure Description

[0061] To more clearly illustrate the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention or the prior art, the drawings used in the description of the embodiments or the prior art will be briefly introduced below. Obviously, the drawings described below are only some embodiments of the present invention. For those skilled in the art, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without creative effort.

[0062] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of the steps of a vehicle curtain control method according to an embodiment of this application.

[0063] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the functional modules of a vehicle curtain control device according to one embodiment of this application. Detailed Implementation

[0064] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0065] Reference Figure 1 This application illustrates a method for controlling vehicle curtains, which may include the following steps:

[0066] S101: When a passenger is detected in the seat, obtain the current environmental data of the target curtain corresponding to the seat; the current environmental data includes light intensity, light angle and temperature.

[0067] It should be noted that the executing entity in this embodiment can be a computing service device with data processing, network communication and program running functions, or an electronic device with the above functions, such as a vehicle computer, an in-vehicle computer, such as an ECU (Electronic Control Unit), a BCM (Body Control Module), a VCU (Vehicle Control Unit), etc. This embodiment does not impose specific restrictions on the executing entity of the vehicle.

[0068] In this embodiment, the VCU will be used as the execution entity. The VCU can collect current environmental data and user information through sensors, and after data analysis and processing, send control commands to the curtains of each vehicle, thereby realizing the automatic control of the curtains of each vehicle by the VCU.

[0069] In this embodiment, when the pre-configured automatic curtain mode function is enabled, passengers on the seats can be detected, and then when passengers are detected on the seats, the current environmental data of the target curtain corresponding to the seats can be obtained.

[0070] It should be noted that the target curtains include one or more of the left rear window sunshade, the right rear window sunshade, and the rear windshield sunshade. In other words, any one of the left rear window sunshade, the right rear window sunshade, and the rear windshield sunshade can be controlled individually, or all three can be controlled simultaneously.

[0071] For example, when a passenger is detected in the left rear seat of the vehicle, the target curtain can be determined as the left rear window sunshade located on the left side of the vehicle. Alternatively, the target curtain can be any curtain including the left rear window sunshade, the right rear window sunshade, and the rear windshield sunshade. Users can personalize the correspondence between seats and target curtains to meet the different sunshade needs of users in different seats.

[0072] In this embodiment, the vehicle can be put into the pre-configured automatic curtain mode function in a variety of ways. For example, the driver can transmit the operation command to the VCU to enter the automatic curtain mode by directly issuing a voice command, triggering a pre-configured physical button, or triggering a virtual button on the display screen. The VCU then responds to the operation command and controls the vehicle to enter the automatic curtain mode function.

[0073] It should be noted that if the driver does not want to enable the automatic curtain mode, the driver can also send a voice command, trigger a pre-configured physical button, or trigger a virtual button on the display screen to the VCU to turn off the automatic curtain mode. The VCU will then respond to the driver's command to turn off the automatic curtain mode and disable the automatic curtain mode function.

[0074] In this embodiment, after activating the automatic curtain mode, the presence of passengers in each rear seat can be detected by pressure sensors located under the seat cushions of each rear seat or by checking whether the seat belts of the rear seats are connected. Specifically, if the pressure value collected by the pressure sensor of a rear seat exceeds a pressure threshold or the seat belt of that rear seat is connected, it is determined that a passenger is present in that rear seat.

[0075] In this embodiment, when a passenger is detected in the seat, current environmental data can be collected using a sunlight sensor and an outside temperature sensor. Specifically, a first sunlight sensor installed on the left side window of the vehicle can detect the light intensity and angle of the light on the left side window in real time, and a second sunlight sensor installed on the right side window of the vehicle can detect the light intensity and angle of the light on the right side window in real time; an outside temperature sensor installed on the vehicle can monitor the outside temperature in real time.

[0076] In this embodiment, the VCU is connected to a pressure sensor, a sunlight sensor, and an external temperature sensor to obtain the current environmental data collected by the pressure sensor, sunlight sensor, and external temperature sensor, and automatically controls the target curtain to open or close based on the current environmental data.

[0077] S102: Determine the target working mode of the target curtain based on light intensity, light angle, and temperature.

[0078] In this embodiment, the curtain's operating modes include an open mode where the curtain is unfolded and a closed mode where the curtain is retracted. The open mode refers to the mode in which the curtain blocks the interior of the car, while the closed mode refers to the mode in which the curtain is retracted to allow external light into the car.

[0079] In this embodiment, after obtaining information such as current light intensity, light angle, and temperature, the target working mode of the target curtain can be determined according to the preset mapping relationship between light intensity, light angle, temperature, and curtain working mode.

[0080] In this embodiment, based on the light intensity, it can be determined whether the vehicle is in a bright light environment; based on the light angle, it can be effectively determined whether light enters the vehicle; based on temperature information, it can be determined whether the vehicle is in a hot environment.

[0081] For example, if the light intensity and temperature of the vehicle's environment are high but the light angle indicates that there is no incident light on the vehicle, it means that there is no need to open the curtains for sun shading, and the target curtains will be controlled to be in the closed mode in the retracted state; if the vehicle has incident light and the light intensity of the environment is high but the temperature of the environment is low, it means that it is in a low-temperature environment, and passengers usually prefer to be in the sunlight, so the target curtains will be controlled to be in the closed mode; if the vehicle has incident light, the light intensity of the environment is high and the temperature is high, the target curtains will be controlled to be in the open mode to open the curtains to shade the user and prevent the user from being in the hot sunlight.

[0082] In this embodiment, by comprehensively analyzing light intensity, light angle and temperature, it is possible to more accurately determine whether passengers have a need for sunshade, effectively avoiding misoperation that could affect the passenger's driving experience.

[0083] S103: Based on the target working mode, control the target curtain to move to the target position corresponding to the target working mode.

[0084] In this embodiment, different target operating modes correspond to different target positions. After determining the target operating mode of the target curtain, the VCU will control the target curtain to move to the target position corresponding to the target operating mode in order to open or close the target curtain.

[0085] This application embodiment can automatically open or close different car curtains based on the vehicle's current environmental data, thereby achieving automatic sunshade without requiring passengers to manually shade themselves. This can significantly improve the passenger's driving experience and effectively enhance the vehicle's intelligence level.

[0086] In one feasible implementation, S102 may specifically include the following sub-steps:

[0087] S102-1: Determine whether there is incident light entering the vehicle based on the illumination angle.

[0088] In this embodiment, the illumination angle refers to the angle of external light. The illumination angle can be used to effectively determine whether sunlight is entering the corresponding passenger-side window.

[0089] In a specific implementation, a preset angle range can be set, which represents the angle range within which passengers inside the vehicle will not be illuminated by external light. When the illumination angle is within the preset angle range, it is determined that there is no incident light; when the illumination angle is not within the preset angle range, it is determined that there is incident light.

[0090] S102-2: When there is incident light, the light intensity is greater than or equal to the first light threshold, and the temperature is greater than or equal to the temperature threshold, the target working mode of the target curtain is determined to be the open mode.

[0091] In this embodiment, when the conditions of incident light, light intensity greater than or equal to the first light threshold, and temperature greater than or equal to the temperature threshold are met simultaneously, it indicates that the passenger is in an environment with strong light, high temperature, and can be irradiated by light. At this time, the target working mode of the target curtain will be determined to be the open mode, and then the target curtain will be controlled to automatically open in order to achieve light blocking.

[0092] S102-3: When there is no incident light, the light intensity is less than the first light threshold, or the temperature is less than the temperature threshold, the target working mode of the target curtain is determined to be the closed mode.

[0093] In this embodiment, if any one of the following conditions is not met: incident light, light intensity greater than or equal to a first light threshold, and temperature greater than or equal to a temperature threshold, it indicates that the passenger does not need to block the light at this time. In this case, the target working mode of the target curtain will be determined to be the closed mode, and then the target curtain will be controlled to close, so as to realize the automatic retraction of the target curtain.

[0094] In this embodiment, by comprehensively judging the passenger's light-blocking needs from multiple sensor parameters such as light intensity, light angle, and temperature, the accuracy of automatic curtain control can be effectively improved.

[0095] In one feasible implementation, S103 may specifically include the following sub-steps:

[0096] S103-1: When the target working mode is the open mode, control the target curtain to move to the first target position corresponding to the open mode.

[0097] In this embodiment, the VCU is connected to a curtain drive device. After determining that the target curtain's target operating mode is the open mode, a drive command containing a first target position is issued to the curtain drive device connected to the target curtain. This causes the curtain drive device to move the target curtain to the first target position, thereby opening the target curtain. The first target position can be the maximum extension range of the target curtain; at the first target position, the target curtain can completely cover the vehicle window.

[0098] S103-2: When the target working mode is the off mode, control the target curtain to move to the second target position corresponding to the off mode.

[0099] In this embodiment, after the VCU determines that the target working mode of the target curtain is the closed mode, it will issue a drive command containing the second target position to the curtain drive device connected to the target curtain, so that the curtain drive device drives the target curtain to move to the second target position to complete the closing of the target curtain. The second target position can be the initial travel of the target curtain, that is, zero. At the second target position, the target curtain does not block the car window.

[0100] In one feasible implementation, after S103-1, that is, after the target curtain is automatically opened to block the light, the vehicle curtain control may further include the following steps:

[0101] S201: When the light intensity is detected to drop to the second light threshold within a first preset time, the timing starts; the second light threshold is less than the first light threshold.

[0102] In this embodiment, to avoid false triggering in scenarios with sudden changes in light, such as tunnel scenes, when the light intensity is detected to drop to the second light threshold within a first preset time, the target working mode will not be immediately switched from the on mode to the off mode. Instead, the VCU will start timing, record the travel time in the tunnel scene, and further determine whether the mode needs to be switched based on the timing duration.

[0103] S202: When the light intensity is detected to be greater than or equal to the first light threshold within the preset time period, the target working mode is kept unchanged as the on mode.

[0104] In this embodiment, the preset timing duration can be set to 3 minutes. That is, if the light intensity is detected to be greater than or equal to the first light threshold again within 3 minutes, it is determined to be exiting the tunnel. At this time, the target working mode will remain unchanged as the on mode.

[0105] S203: If no light intensity greater than or equal to the first light threshold is detected within the preset timing period, the target working mode is switched from the on mode to the off mode, and the timing is stopped.

[0106] In this embodiment, if no light intensity greater than or equal to the first light threshold is detected within 3 minutes, it means that the vehicle has not exited the tunnel after 3 minutes of driving and is judged to be in a long tunnel. At this time, the light intensity in the tunnel is insufficient to keep the curtains in place. The target working mode is switched from the open mode to the closed mode to automatically retract the automatically unfolded curtains and stop the timer. The timer continues until the light intensity is greater than or equal to the first light threshold, i.e. when the vehicle exits the long tunnel. Then, the working mode of the target curtains is switched back to the open mode to block the light.

[0107] In this embodiment, when the vehicle suddenly enters a dark tunnel and the light intensity suddenly changes from a high value to a low value, a timer can be started, and the system can determine whether the passenger needs to retract the curtains based on the timer duration. If the tunnel passage time is short, the open mode is maintained; if the tunnel passage time is long, the system switches to the closed mode to open the curtains to meet the passenger's lighting needs.

[0108] In one feasible implementation, after S103-1, that is, after the target curtain is automatically opened to block the light, the vehicle curtain control may further include the following steps:

[0109] S301: When the light intensity is detected to be less than the first light threshold, the frequency of change of light intensity within a second preset time period is obtained.

[0110] In this embodiment, to avoid false triggering when the vehicle is driving in the shade of trees or buildings, the frequency of change of light intensity within a second preset time period will be acquired when the light intensity is detected to be less than a first light threshold.

[0111] In this embodiment, the second preset time can be set to 10 seconds. That is, by detecting the frequency of changes in light intensity within the last 10 seconds, it is possible to effectively determine whether the vehicle is driving in a scenario where the light intensity fluctuates constantly, such as in the shade of trees.

[0112] S302: When the frequency of change is greater than the frequency threshold, keep the target working mode as the on mode.

[0113] In this embodiment, when the frequency of change is greater than the frequency threshold, it indicates that the vehicle is driving in a scene where the intensity of light, such as under trees, is constantly fluctuating. In this case, the target working mode will be kept on to avoid the target curtain being accidentally triggered and frequently starting or closing.

[0114] It should be noted that if, during the driving process, the light intensity is detected to have remained unchanged for the past 10 seconds and to be consistently below the first light threshold, the target working mode of the target curtain will be switched from the open mode to the closed mode.

[0115] In one feasible implementation, after S103-1, that is, after the target curtain is automatically opened to block the light, the vehicle curtain control may further include the following steps:

[0116] S401: Upon receiving a vehicle collision signal, switch the target operating mode from the on mode to the off mode.

[0117] In this embodiment, the VCU is connected to a collision sensor. The VCU can determine whether a traffic accident has occurred by acquiring the collision signal collected by the collision sensor. When a vehicle collision signal is acquired, the VCU can switch the target working mode from the open mode to the closed mode, drive the target curtain to retract automatically, reduce the difficulty of rescuing rear passengers, and ensure the safety of rear passengers.

[0118] In one feasible implementation, after S103-1, that is, after the target curtain is automatically opened to block the light, the vehicle curtain control may further include the following steps:

[0119] S501: In response to a curtain closing command triggered by a passenger for a target curtain, exit the open mode and control the target curtain to move to the third target position corresponding to the curtain closing command.

[0120] In this embodiment, passengers can also manually control the curtains as needed. Specifically, when the target curtain is in open mode, passengers can manually trigger a curtain-closing command. In practice, passengers can control the target curtain via a preset control switch. After the passenger triggers the curtain-closing command via the control switch, the target curtain will exit open mode and deactivate the automatic curtain mode function, becoming solely controlled by the control switch. To reactivate the automatic curtain mode function, passengers can trigger a pre-configured physical button or a virtual button on the display screen.

[0121] In one feasible implementation, after S103-2, i.e. after the target curtain is automatically closed, the vehicle curtain control may further include the following steps:

[0122] S502: In response to a curtain opening command triggered by a passenger for a target curtain, exit the closing mode and control the target curtain to move to the fourth target position corresponding to the curtain opening command.

[0123] In this embodiment, passengers can still manually control the curtains even when they are in closed mode. Specifically, when the target curtains are in closed mode, passengers can trigger a curtain closing command using a preset control switch, causing the target curtains to exit open mode and deactivate the automatic curtain mode function. If passengers wish to reactivate the automatic curtain mode function, they can do so by triggering a pre-configured physical button or a virtual button on the display screen.

[0124] In one feasible implementation, after S103-1, that is, after the target curtain is automatically opened to block the light, the vehicle curtain control may further include the following steps:

[0125] S601: When the vehicle's current gear is detected to be reverse and the rear window sunshade is in open mode, control the rear window sunshade to switch from open mode to closed mode.

[0126] In this embodiment, the target curtain includes one or more of the left rear window sunshade, the right rear window sunshade, and the rear windshield sunshade. The rear windshield sunshade is used to block light from behind the vehicle.

[0127] In this embodiment, considering that the driver may need to observe the road conditions behind through the rear windshield when reversing, the rear windshield sunshade will be automatically switched from open mode to closed mode when the rear windshield sunshade is in open mode and obstructing the rear windshield and the vehicle is currently in reverse gear. This will retract the rear windshield sunshade to avoid obstructing the driver's view, thereby providing the driver with a good reversing view and assisting the driver in reversing operations.

[0128] In this embodiment, considering the rapidly changing surrounding environment during vehicle operation, following a single control logic may lead to malfunctions and a poor user experience. Therefore, this embodiment provides automatic curtain control solutions for various scenarios, including tunnel scenarios, road conditions under tree or building shadows, vehicle collision scenarios, user manual control scenarios, and reversing scenarios. This effectively improves the automatic curtain control logic, avoids false triggering in various scenarios, and automatically opens or closes the curtains in the corresponding areas by automatically detecting surrounding environmental data, achieving accurate and stable control. This significantly improves the passenger's driving experience and effectively enhances the vehicle's intelligence level.

[0129] Secondly, based on the same inventive concept, and referring to... Figure 2 This application provides a vehicle curtain control device 200, which includes:

[0130] The acquisition module 201 is used to acquire the current environmental data of the target curtain corresponding to the seat when a passenger is detected in the seat. The current environmental data includes light intensity, light angle, and temperature.

[0131] The determination module 202 is used to determine the target working mode of the target curtain based on light intensity, light angle and temperature.

[0132] The control module 203 is used to control the target curtain to move to the target position corresponding to the target working mode based on the target working mode.

[0133] In one embodiment of this application, the determining module 202 includes:

[0134] The judgment submodule is used to determine whether there is incident light entering the vehicle based on the illumination angle.

[0135] The first determining submodule is used to determine the target working mode of the target curtain as the open mode when there is incident light, the light intensity is greater than or equal to the first light threshold, and the temperature is greater than or equal to the temperature threshold.

[0136] The second determining submodule is used to determine the target working mode of the target curtain as the closed mode when there is no incident light, the light intensity is less than the first light threshold, or the temperature is less than the temperature threshold.

[0137] In one embodiment of this application, the control module 203 includes:

[0138] The first control submodule is used to control the target curtain to move to the first target position corresponding to the open mode when the target working mode is the open mode.

[0140] In one embodiment of this application, the vehicle curtain control device 200 further includes:

[0141] The timing module, when the target operating mode is "on," controls the target curtain to move to the first target position corresponding to the "on" mode. After this step, when the light intensity is detected to drop to a second light threshold within a first preset time, the timing begins. The second light threshold is less than the first light threshold.

[0142] The first holding module is used to keep the target working mode unchanged as the on mode when the light intensity is detected to be greater than or equal to the first light threshold within a preset time period.

[0143] The first switching module is used to switch the target working mode from the on mode to the off mode and stop the timing when no light intensity greater than or equal to the first light threshold is detected within the preset timing period.

[0147] In one embodiment of this application, the vehicle curtain control device 200 further includes:

[0148] The second switching module is used to control the target curtain to move to the first target position corresponding to the open mode when the target working mode is open, and then switch the target working mode from open mode to closed mode when a vehicle collision signal is obtained.

[0149] In one embodiment of this application, the vehicle curtain control device 200 further includes:

[0150] The first manual control module is used to control the target curtain to move to the first target position corresponding to the open mode when the target working mode is open mode. After that, in response to the curtain closing command triggered by the passenger for the target curtain, it exits the open mode and controls the target curtain to move to the third target position corresponding to the curtain closing command.

[0151] The second manual control module is used to control the target curtain to move to the second target position corresponding to the closed mode when the target working mode is closed. After this step, in response to the curtain opening command triggered by the passenger for the target curtain, the module exits the closed mode and controls the target curtain to move to the fourth target position corresponding to the curtain opening command.

[0152] In one embodiment of this application, the target curtain includes one or more of a left rear window sunshade, a right rear window sunshade, and a rear windshield sunshade. The vehicle curtain control device 200 further includes:

[0153] The third switching module is used to control the target curtain to move to the first target position corresponding to the open mode when the target working mode is open mode. After that step, when it is detected that the current gear of the vehicle is reverse and the rear windshield sunshade is in open mode, the module controls the rear windshield sunshade to switch from open mode to closed mode.
