[0033] Figure 1 is a schematic block diagram of a vehicle terminal 200 according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 2 , the vehicle terminal 200 can include a display 210 and a controller 220. The display 210 may, for example, be a vehicle display screen or a head-up display, but the present application is not limited thereto. The display 210 can be communicatively connected with the controller 220 in a wired or wireless manner. In the case that the vehicle terminal 200 is in a navigation mode, the controller 220 can detect the current display interface content of the display 210 in real time, and when the controller 220 detects that the current display interface of the display 210 is not a navigation interface, the controller 220 controls the display 210 to display a relevant navigation event in the current display interface of the display 210 in the form of an interaction window. Then, the controller 220 will also determine the importance level of the navigation event based on the priority of the navigation event, and determine the display strategy of the interaction window according to the importance level of the navigation event. According to the vehicle terminal of the embodiment of the present application, when it is determined that the current display interface is not a navigation interface in the navigation mode, the importance level of the navigation event can be determined based on the priority of the navigation event, and the display strategy of the interaction window for displaying the navigation event on the current display interface is determined according to the determined importance level. In the above-mentioned manner, the probability that an important navigation event is ignored by the user due to the display manner not being eye-catching enough can be reduced, thereby improving the navigation reliability and the user's use experience.

It should be understood that the navigation event display methods 30, 40, 50 and 60 can also include additional steps not shown and / or can omit the steps shown, and the scope of the present application is not limited in this respect. Figure 1 Figure 6 Flowcharts of navigation event display methods 30, 40, 50 and 60 according to exemplary embodiments of the present application are shown respectively. The navigation event display methods 30, 40, 50 and 60 may, for example, be executed at the controller 220 of the vehicle terminal 200 described above, and may, for example, also be executed at the electronic device 70 described above. The navigation event display methods 30, 40, 50 and 60 will be described below with reference to the execution at the controller 220 of the vehicle terminal 200 as an example. It should be understood that the navigation event display methods 30, 40, 50 and 60 can also include additional steps not shown and / or can omit the steps shown, and the scope of the present application is not limited in this respect.

[0035] ​At step S310, in response to detecting that the current display interface is a non-navigation interface, the controller 220 of the in-vehicle terminal 200 displays a navigation event in the current display interface in the form of an interactive window. In the navigation mode of the in-vehicle terminal 200, the current display interface on the display 210 is usually a navigation interface, but when the user operates the interface on the display 210 to perform other functions, the current display interface can be a non-navigation interface. As an example, the current display interface on the display 210 of the in-vehicle terminal 200 can be one of the following: a home interface, a navigation interface, an interface including a smart assistant, and other interfaces that are neither a home interface nor a navigation interface. As an example, the other interfaces can include application interfaces of third-party applications such as an audio / video player, or can also include, for example, a system settings interface.

[0036] In the example embodiments of the present application, the navigation event can include, but is not limited to, a road guidance prompt in the navigation mode, a road condition prompt, a safety information prompt, a driving distance prompt, an electronic police information prompt, etc. In an example, the navigation event can be divided into a normal navigation event, a simple turning event, and a complex road guidance event according to the type of the navigation event. Illustratively, the normal navigation event can include navigation events such as the next road name, the next intersection name, the remaining distance, a straight icon, etc., the simple turning event can include navigation events such as a turning icon changing from a left turn to a right turn, a lane switch, a simple intersection (such as a crossroads, a T-shaped intersection) turning, etc., and the complex road guidance event can include navigation events such as a turning event with two or more intersections, a highway entrance / exit navigation event, a lane guide complex intersection navigation event, etc.

[0037] In the example embodiments of the present application, the interactive window can include a display window in the form of a pop-up window, a dialog box, a dynamic island, a navigation card, etc. The interactive window can be displayed in an embedded manner within the current display interface, or in a suspended manner on the top layer of the current display interface, or in a pop-up, gradient, or other animation manner on the current display interface. The interactive window can be displayed in a more eye-catching manner relative to the current display interface, thereby better serving as a prompt. As an example, the interactive window has the highest display priority in the current display interface (such as being permanently displayed on the top layer of the interface). In other words, the interactive window displaying the navigation event content can be presented to the user in the most eye-catching manner in the current display interface, so as to prevent the user from missing or ignoring the navigation event reminder, thereby improving driving safety and user experience.

[0038] At step S320, the controller 220 of the in-vehicle terminal 200 determines the importance level of the navigation event based on the priority of the navigation event, and determines the display strategy of the interactive window according to the determined importance level of the navigation event.

[0039] In the example embodiments of the present application, the navigation events can be classified into common navigation events, simple turning events and complex road guiding events. The priority order of the navigation events can be determined according to the degree of influence of the navigation events on driving safety or driving efficiency. For example, the navigation events of complex intersections, such as overpasses, highway entrances and exits, and complex terrain roads (such as accident-prone sections) have a higher degree of influence on driving safety than simple intersection turning events, and thus have a higher priority. As an example, the priority of the common navigation events, the simple turning events and the complex road guiding events can satisfy: the priority of the common navigation events is lower than the priority of the simple turning events, and the priority of the simple turning events is lower than the priority of the complex road guiding events. In other words, the priority of the common navigation events, the simple turning events and the complex road guiding events can be sequentially increased. The controller 220 of the in-vehicle terminal 200 can formulate different display strategies of the interaction window for the navigation events of different priorities, respectively. In this way, the probability of the user missing or ignoring the high-priority navigation events can be reduced to improve driving safety, and the user experience can be improved by avoiding the low-priority navigation events from interfering with the user too much.

[0040] In the example embodiments of the present application, the controller 220 of the in-vehicle terminal 200 can determine the importance level of the navigation events based on the priority order of the priority of the navigation events, wherein the importance level of the navigation events is positively correlated with the priority of the navigation events. In other words, the higher the priority of the navigation events, the higher the importance level of the corresponding navigation events, and vice versa.

[0041] In the exemplary embodiments of the present application, the controller 220 of the vehicle terminal 200 can determine the initial importance level of the navigation event based on the priority order of the priority of the navigation event, wherein the initial importance level of the navigation event is positively correlated with the priority of the navigation event. In other words, the higher the priority of the navigation event, the higher the initial importance level of the navigation event corresponding thereto, and vice versa. Then, when the controller 220 of the vehicle terminal 200 determines that the system of the vehicle terminal 200 is in the mute mode (including the case that the system volume of the vehicle terminal 200 is lower than a certain threshold or the user is using the vehicle phone function of the vehicle terminal 200 to make a call), the initial importance level of the navigation event can be adjusted upward as the importance level of the navigation event. As an example, when it is determined that the system of the vehicle terminal 200 is in the mute mode, the importance level of the navigation event can be obtained by adjusting the initial importance level of the navigation event by one level, and the display strategy of the interactive window is determined according to the importance level. Alternatively, when it is determined that the system volume of the vehicle terminal 200 is lower than the preset threshold, the importance level of the navigation event can be obtained by adjusting the initial importance level of the navigation event by one level, and the display strategy of the interactive window is determined according to the importance level. The preset threshold can be preset by the system, or can be set according to the user's selection, for example, the preset threshold can be set to 5%, 10% or 15% of the total system volume, etc. Alternatively, when it is determined that the user is using the vehicle phone function of the vehicle terminal 200 to make a call, the importance level of the navigation event can be obtained by adjusting the initial importance level of the navigation event by one level, and the display strategy of the interactive window is determined according to the importance level.

[0042] That is, the initial importance level of the navigation event can be determined according to the priority order of the priority of the navigation event first, and then the initial importance level is adjusted upward if the system is in the mute mode, so that the display strategy corresponding to the higher importance level is used to display the navigation event. Because when the system of the vehicle terminal 200 is in the mute mode, the content of the navigation event cannot be announced by voice. In order to avoid the user ignoring or missing the navigation event, the importance level of the navigation event can be adjusted upward when the system of the vehicle terminal 200 is in the mute mode, so as to display the navigation event in a more eye-catching way to reduce the probability of the user ignoring or missing the navigation event, thereby further improving the driving safety and user experience.

[0043] In some cases, even if the system of the vehicle terminal 200 is in the mute mode, the controller 220 of the vehicle terminal 200 can temporarily cancel the mute and remind the user in the manner of voice broadcast and / or image display and / or text display when it is determined that the navigation event has the highest priority. It should be noted that, in order to avoid the low-priority navigation event disturbing the user, the temporary cancellation of the mute can be taken only for the high-priority navigation event, such as the complex road guidance event, while the temporary cancellation of the mute is not needed for the low-priority navigation event, such as the simple turning event, so as to avoid unnecessary disturbance to the user and further improve the user experience.

[0044] In the exemplary embodiments of the present application, the controller 220 of the vehicle terminal 200 can determine the size of the interactive window and / or the recognition degree of the interactive window according to the importance level of the navigation event, wherein the size and / or the recognition degree of the interactive window are positively correlated with the importance level of the navigation event.

[0045] As an example, the size of the interactive window can include, for example, at least one of the length, width and area of the interactive window, and correspondingly, the size of the interactive window being positively correlated with the importance level of the navigation event can include at least one of the length, width and area of the interactive window being positively correlated with the importance level of the navigation event. For example, the length, width or area of the interactive window displaying the navigation event with a higher importance level can be greater than the length, width or area of the interactive window displaying the navigation event with a lower importance level, so that the navigation event with a higher importance level can be more prominently displayed in the current display interface, so as to reduce the probability of the user ignoring the navigation event with a higher importance level, thereby improving the driving safety and user experience.

[0046] As an example, the recognizability of the interaction window can include, but is not limited to, brightness, chroma and / or flickering effect of the interaction window. Accordingly, determining the recognizability of the interaction window can include at least one of: determining brightness of the interaction window; determining chroma of the interaction window; and determining flickering effect of the interaction window. The recognizability of the interaction window positively correlating with the importance level of the navigation event can include at least one of the brightness, chroma and / or flickering effect of the interaction window positively correlating with the importance level of the navigation event. For example, the brightness and / or chroma of the interaction window displaying the navigation event with a higher importance level can be greater than the brightness and / or chroma of the interaction window displaying the navigation event with a lower importance level. For example, the interaction window displaying the navigation event with a higher importance level has a flickering effect, while the interaction window displaying the navigation event with a lower importance level does not have a flickering effect. In these manners, the navigation event with a higher importance level can be displayed in a more noticeable way, so as to reduce the probability of the user missing the navigation event with a higher importance level, while avoiding the navigation event with a relatively low importance level from disturbing the user too much, thereby improving driving safety and user experience.

[0047] In an example embodiment of the present application, the navigation event display method according to the present application further includes the following step S410, as shown in Figure 3 In step S410, in response to determining that the system of the in-vehicle terminal 200 is in a mute mode, the controller 220 of the in-vehicle terminal 200 controls the display 210 to prompt at least one of the driving safety information, the road condition information and the electronic police information in the interaction window in the form of icon flickering. For example, the driving safety information, the road condition information and the electronic police information can be displayed in a dynamic island arranged in the current display interface, which can be located in the upper central position of the current display interface, but the present application is not limited thereto. As an example, the driving safety information can include, but is not limited to, violation photographing information, accident-prone road section information, etc. The road condition information can include, but is not limited to, road congestion condition, road smoothness information, etc. The electronic police information can include, but is not limited to, snapshot information, overspeed information, speed limit information, etc. In the mute system, the above-mentioned manners can compensate for the probability of the navigation event being more easily missed or ignored by the user due to the navigation event not being played by voice, thereby improving driving safety and user experience.

[0048] In an example embodiment of the present application, the navigation event display method according to the present application further includes the following step S510, as shown in Figure 4The interactive window is converted into a desktop card based on the operation of dragging the interactive window onto the homepage icon of the function navigation bar in step S510. Alternatively, the interactive window is converted into a navigation-in card based on the operation of dragging the interactive window onto the navigation icon of the function navigation bar. The user can perform a dragging operation on the interactive window displayed on the current display interface of the display 210. After receiving the dragging operation event of the user through the display 210, the controller 220 of the in-vehicle terminal 200 can draw an animation track corresponding to the received dragging operation event based on the dragging mechanism of the view and event of the Android system, and determine the end position of the dragging operation according to the drawn track. Based on the end position of the dragging operation and the current page layout, the icon corresponding to the end position can be determined, and the target application can be determined according to the icon. Then, the target application is notified to display card information in the form of a broadcast, so as to convert the interactive window into a card in the target application.

[0049] As an example, the user can drag the interactive window displayed on the current display interface of the display 210 onto the homepage icon of the function navigation bar. When the controller 220 of the in-vehicle terminal 200 receives the above-mentioned dragging operation event of the user through the display 210, a broadcast is sent to notify the desktop card to display card information, and the display 210 is controlled to jump to the main interface, so as to convert the interactive window into a desktop card for display. In the case where the current display interface is the main interface, the user can directly drag the interactive window displayed on the main interface to the position of the desktop card. When the controller 220 of the in-vehicle terminal 200 receives the above-mentioned dragging operation event of the user through the display 210, and judges that the current display interface is the main interface and the end position of the dragging operation is the position of the desktop card, a broadcast is sent to notify the desktop card to display card information, so as to convert the interactive window into a desktop card for display.

[0050] Similarly, the user can also drag the interactive window displayed on the current display interface of the display 210 onto the navigation icon of the function navigation bar. When the controller 220 of the in-vehicle terminal 200 receives the above-mentioned dragging operation event of the user through the display 210, a broadcast is sent to notify the navigation application to display card information, and the display 210 is controlled to jump to the navigation interface, so as to convert the interactive window into a navigation-in card for display. Generally, the size of the desktop card and the navigation-in card is generally larger than that of the pop-up window, and the content of the navigation event can be displayed in more detail. Moreover, converting the interactive window into a fixed card is beneficial to continuously and stably outputting navigation information, and can effectively avoid the problem of blocking the display content of the interface by the interactive window, thereby improving the user experience. In addition, the above-mentioned method can provide more display schemes for the user to select and use, thereby improving the user experience.

[0051] In an exemplary embodiment of this application, step S320 can be specifically implemented as step S610, such as... Figure 5 As shown. In step S610, in response to the navigation event being a complex road guidance event, the controller 220 of the vehicle terminal 200 determines the display strategy of the interactive window, including displaying a magnified intersection view in the interactive window. Generally speaking, compared with interactive windows in the form of text, voice, etc., the magnified intersection view can display the actual road conditions of complex roads in a more intuitive way, such as intersection conditions, lane / traffic sign / marking settings, vehicle / pedestrian traffic flow, etc., so as to remind users to drive the vehicle through the complex road in a safer and more reliable way, thereby reducing the probability of accidents and improving driving safety and user experience.

[0052] The navigation event display method according to the embodiments of this application will now be described with reference to specific examples.

[0053] When the in-vehicle terminal is in navigation mode, it can monitor the current display content in real time. If the in-vehicle terminal determines that the current display is not a navigation interface, it can push and display navigation events on the current display interface through interactive windows such as "Dynamic Island".

[0054] The controller of the in-vehicle terminal can determine the importance level of navigation events based on their priority, and then determine the display strategy of the interactive window according to the determined importance level. Typically, navigation events can be divided into ordinary navigation events, simple turning events, and complex road guidance events. Ordinary navigation events may include navigation events such as the next road name, the next intersection name, remaining distance, and a straight-ahead icon. Simple turning events may include navigation events where the turning direction changes, such as the turning icon changing from left to right, lane switching, and turning at simple intersections (such as crossroads or T-junctions). Complex road guidance events may include navigation events with two or more intersections, highway entrance / exit navigation events, and complex lane guidance intersection navigation events. The priorities of ordinary navigation events, simple turning events, and complex road guidance events can increase sequentially. Correspondingly, the importance levels of ordinary navigation events, simple turning events, and complex road guidance events can also increase sequentially. For example, the importance level of an ordinary navigation event can be determined to be 0, the importance level of a simple turning event to be 1, and the importance level of a complex road guidance event to be 2.

[0055] When the vehicle terminal detects that the current display interface is not a navigation interface and the navigation event is a normal navigation event with an importance level of 0, the navigation event can be pushed and displayed through Lingdong Island.

[0056] When the vehicle terminal detects that the current display interface is a non-navigation interface and the navigation event is a simple turning event with an importance level of 1, the navigation event can be pushed and displayed in a more eye-catching manner through the smart island. The more eye-catching manner can include, but is not limited to, adjusting the size and / or recognition of the smart island, for example, adjusting at least one of the length, width and area of the smart island, and / or adjusting the brightness, chroma and flashing effect of the smart island.

[0057] When the vehicle terminal detects that the current display interface is a non-navigation interface and the navigation event is a complex road guiding event with an importance level of 2, the navigation event can be pushed and displayed in a more eye-catching manner through the smart island, and an enlarged map of the intersection can be displayed in the smart island. The more eye-catching manner can include, but is not limited to, adjusting the size and / or recognition of the smart island, for example, adjusting at least one of the length, width and area of the smart island, and / or adjusting the brightness, chroma and flashing effect of the smart island.

[0058] When the vehicle terminal detects that the current display interface is a non-navigation interface and the system is in a mute mode (including the system volume being lower than a certain threshold or the user is using the vehicle terminal to make a call, etc.), the initial importance level of the navigation event can be adjusted as the importance level of the navigation event (for example, the initial importance level of the simple turning event is adjusted from 1 to 3), and the navigation event can be pushed and displayed in a more eye-catching manner through the smart island. The more eye-catching manner can include, but is not limited to, adjusting the size and / or recognition of the smart island, for example, adjusting at least one of the length, width and area of the smart island, and / or adjusting the brightness, chroma and flashing effect of the smart island. The more eye-catching manner also includes adjusting the background color of the smart island to a more eye-catching color.

[0059] Based on the above-mentioned navigation event display methods, the importance level of the navigation event can be determined according to the priority order of the priority of the navigation event, and the display strategy of the interactive window used to display the navigation event can be determined according to the determined importance level, so as to more eye-catchingly push the navigation event to the user, which can reduce the probability that the navigation event is ignored or missed by the user, thereby improving driving safety and user experience. In addition, different display strategies can be formulated for various navigation events with different importance levels, which can not only avoid the user missing or ignoring navigation events with higher importance levels, but also avoid navigation events with low importance levels interfering with the user, which can further improve navigation efficiency and user experience. It should be understood that any display strategy of the navigation event described above can be combined without contradiction, and more examples are not listed one by one.

[0060] The step division of the above various methods is only for the purpose of clear description, and in implementation, one step can be combined or some steps can be split and decomposed into multiple steps, as long as the same logical relationship is included, which is within the protection scope of the patent.
