[0003] In related technologies, instruments will issue alarms for each abnormal situation through multiple alarm methods. Since the completion time of different alarm methods varies, the instrument may issue alarms for multiple abnormal situations, which can easily lead to confusion and result in low accuracy of the instrument's alarms. Summary of the Invention

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a vehicle instrument alarm method, device, computer equipment, computer-readable storage medium, and computer program product that can improve the accuracy of instrument alarms, addressing the aforementioned technical problems.

[0006] Acquire multiple fault events occurring in the target vehicle at the current moment;

[0007] Identify the target fault event from multiple fault events, and send the message information corresponding to the target fault event to the instrument panel of the target vehicle to issue an alarm;

[0008] If it is determined that the alarm channel of the target vehicle is not occupied, a new target fault event is re-determined from the multiple fault events until the multiple fault events complete the alarm.

[0009] Secondly, this application also provides a warning device for a vehicle instrument panel. The device includes:

[0010] The acquisition module is used to acquire multiple fault events that occur in the target vehicle at the current moment;

[0011] The sending module is used to determine the target fault event from multiple fault events and send the message information corresponding to the target fault event to the instrument panel of the target vehicle to issue an alarm.

[0012] The determination module is used to re-determine a new target fault event from the plurality of fault events when it is determined that the alarm channel of the target vehicle is not occupied, until the plurality of fault events complete the alarm.

[0013] Thirdly, this application also provides a computer device. The computer device includes a memory and a processor, the memory storing a computer program, and the processor executing the computer program to perform the following steps:

[0014] Acquire multiple fault events occurring in the target vehicle at the current moment;

[0015] Identify the target fault event from multiple fault events, and send the message information corresponding to the target fault event to the instrument panel of the target vehicle to issue an alarm;

[0016] If it is determined that the alarm channel of the target vehicle is not occupied, a new target fault event is re-determined from the multiple fault events until the multiple fault events complete the alarm.

[0017] Fourthly, this application also provides a computer-readable storage medium. The computer-readable storage medium stores a computer program thereon, which, when executed by a processor, performs the following steps:

[0018] Acquire multiple fault events occurring in the target vehicle at the current moment;

[0019] Identify the target fault event from multiple fault events, and send the message information corresponding to the target fault event to the instrument panel of the target vehicle to issue an alarm;

[0020] If it is determined that the alarm channel of the target vehicle is not occupied, a new target fault event is re-determined from the multiple fault events until the multiple fault events complete the alarm.

[0025] The aforementioned vehicle instrument panel alarm method, device, computer equipment, storage medium, and computer program product, by acquiring multiple fault events occurring in the target vehicle at the current moment, can promptly grasp the fault status of the target vehicle at that moment. Based on this, a target fault event is determined from multiple fault events, and the corresponding message information is sent to the target vehicle's instrument panel for alarm, ensuring that the instrument panel can provide an appropriate alarm based on the message information, avoiding mismatched response measures by the driver. If the alarm channel of the target vehicle is confirmed to be unobstructed, it can promptly know that the alarm for the target fault event has been completed. Thus, a new target fault event is re-determined from multiple fault events until multiple fault events have been alarmed. That is, an alarm for a new current target fault event is only issued after ensuring that the instrument panel has completed the alarm for the target fault event, avoiding simultaneous alarms for the target fault event and new target fault events, preventing confusion, and improving the accuracy of instrument panel alarms.

[0031] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application.

[0032] The alarm method for vehicle instrument panels provided in this application embodiment can be applied to, for example... Figure 1In the application environment shown, the instrument cluster 102 communicates with the vehicle controller 104 via a network. The vehicle controller 104 communicates with a computer device (not shown) via a network. The computer device can be a server or a terminal. For example, the vehicle controller can send relevant vehicle data or related information to the computer device for storage. The data storage system can store the data that the server needs to process. The data storage system can be integrated on a server or placed in the cloud or on another network server. The vehicle controller 104 acquires multiple fault events occurring in the target vehicle at the current moment; determines the target fault event from the multiple fault events, and sends the message information corresponding to the target fault event to the instrument cluster 102 of the target vehicle to issue an alarm; if the vehicle controller 104 determines that the alarm channel of the target vehicle is not occupied, the vehicle controller 104 re-determines a new target fault event from the multiple fault events until multiple fault events complete the alarm process.

[0033] The terminals can be, but are not limited to, various personal computers, laptops, smartphones, tablets, IoT devices, and portable wearable devices. IoT devices can include smart speakers, smart TVs, smart air conditioners, and smart in-vehicle systems. Portable wearable devices can include smartwatches, smart bracelets, and head-mounted devices. Servers can be implemented using independent servers or server clusters composed of multiple servers.

[0034] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, a warning method for a vehicle instrument panel is provided, which can be applied to... Figure 1 Taking the vehicle controller as an example, the explanation includes the following steps:

[0035] Step S202: Obtain multiple fault events that occur in the target vehicle at the current moment.

[0036] The target vehicle is a vehicle equipped with a planetary hybrid power system. For example, the vehicle can be a car, a van, a truck, etc., without specific limitations. Figure 3 The diagram shown is a schematic representation of a planetary hybrid power system structure in one embodiment. This planetary hybrid power system includes an engine, a generator, a main drive motor, a planetary gear set, and a system output shaft. In this application, a fault event refers to an event that requires an instrument panel warning; a fault event can be understood as an event that affects the normal driving of the vehicle. Exemplarily, a fault event can be an event where vehicle parts are damaged, such as a malfunctioning electronic parking brake; exemplarily, a fault event can also be an event where no vehicle parts are damaged, but the fuel level is insufficient. Exemplarily, when testing a target vehicle, a fault event can also be an event where the air pressure is insufficient.

[0037] Optionally, the vehicle controller acquires the vehicle's input and output signals at the current moment and performs fault event identification on these signals to determine multiple fault events occurring in the target vehicle at that moment. It is understood that each fault event has a different event type. The vehicle controller includes digital input switches (electronic parking brake engage signal, electronic parking brake release signal, etc.), analog input switches (such as air tank pressure, brake pedal voltage, etc.), power output switches (brake pressure relief valve, brake pressure increase valve, brake reserve pressure valve), and a CAN (Controller Area Network) communication network. The CAN communication network includes physical wiring harnesses.

[0038] For example, when the vehicle controller detects that the key switch of the target vehicle is in the "on" state, the vehicle controller acquires the vehicle's input and output signals at the current moment and performs fault event identification on the input and output signals to determine multiple fault events of the target vehicle at the current moment. For example, if the vehicle controller detects that the electronic parking brake engage signal and the electronic parking brake release signal are both valid, it determines that there is a braking system fault.

[0039] Of course, if the vehicle controller detects that the key switch of the target vehicle is in the off state, the vehicle controller will not perform fault event identification. The key switch is used to start or stop the power supply to the vehicle controller and the instrument panel. Understandably, when the key switch is in the off state, the instrument panel will not function; for example, the instrument panel will not issue any warnings.

[0040] Step S204: Determine the target fault event from multiple fault events, and send the message information corresponding to the target fault event to the instrument panel of the target vehicle to issue an alarm.

[0041] The message information is used to determine the alarm method for the target fault event. For example, the alarm method is an audio alarm, or the alarm method is a text alarm.

[0042] Optionally, the vehicle controller determines the target fault event for the current alarm from multiple fault events, determines the message information corresponding to the target fault event, and sends the message information corresponding to the target fault event to the instrument panel of the target vehicle to issue an alarm.

[0043] For example, the vehicle controller determines the previous alarm fault event of the last alarm and, according to the alarm execution order of multiple fault events, takes the alarm event after the previous alarm fault event as the target fault event of the current alarm.

[0044] For example, if the vehicle controller detects 10 alarm events at the current moment, it determines the alarm execution order of these 10 alarm events. If the current alarm is the 7th alarm, and the previous alarm fault event of the previous alarm (the 6th alarm) is event B, then according to the alarm execution order, event C, which is located after event B, is determined, and the vehicle controller takes event C as the target fault event of the current alarm.

[0045] For example, the vehicle controller determines at least one unexecuted alarm event corresponding to the current alarm, and determines the target fault event of the current alarm based on the alarm execution order of the at least one unexecuted alarm event.

[0046] For example, if the vehicle controller detects 10 alarm events at the current moment, and the previous alarm fault event of the 6th alarm was event B, then there are 4 unexecuted alarm events remaining. That is, the target alarm event for the current alarm is determined from the remaining 4 alarm events. In other words, the vehicle controller determines the current execution order of the remaining 4 unexecuted alarm events and determines the target alarm event for the current alarm based on the current execution order.

[0047] After identifying the target alarm event for the current alarm, the vehicle controller determines the message information corresponding to the target fault event based on the pre-stored correspondence between fault events and message information, and sends the message information corresponding to the target fault event to the instrument panel of the target vehicle through the CAN network to issue an alarm.

[0048] Step S206: If it is determined that the alarm channel of the target vehicle is not occupied, a new target fault event is re-determined from multiple fault events until multiple fault events complete the alarm.

[0049] In this context, the alarm channel refers to the signal channel used in the process of implementing an alarm method. For example, if the alarm method is an audio alarm, the corresponding alarm channel is the channel that emits the sound. Similarly, if the alarm method is a text alarm, the corresponding alarm channel is the text transmission channel. If an alarm channel is occupied, it indicates that an alarm is being triggered using the alarm method corresponding to that channel. If an alarm channel is not occupied, it indicates that the alarm method corresponding to that channel has ended.

[0050] Optionally, for a target alarm event, if there is an alarm mode, there is an alarm channel corresponding to that alarm mode. If the vehicle controller determines that the alarm channel of the target vehicle is not occupied, the vehicle controller will re-determine a new target alarm fault event from multiple fault events until multiple alarm events complete the alarm.

[0051] For a target alarm event, if there are multiple alarm methods, the vehicle controller will determine a new target alarm fault event from the multiple fault events after confirming that none of the alarm channels are occupied, until the multiple alarm events have completed alarming.

[0052] In the aforementioned vehicle instrument panel alarm method, by acquiring multiple fault events occurring in the target vehicle at the current moment, the fault status of the target vehicle can be grasped in a timely manner. Based on this, a target fault event is determined from multiple fault events, and the corresponding message information is sent to the target vehicle's instrument panel to issue an alarm. This ensures that the instrument panel can issue an appropriate alarm based on the message information, avoiding mismatched responses from the driver. If the alarm channel of the target vehicle is confirmed to be unobstructed, it can be promptly notified that the alarm for the target fault event has been completed. Thus, a new target fault event is re-determined from multiple fault events until multiple fault events have been alarmed. That is, an alarm for a new current target fault event is only issued after the instrument panel has completed the alarm for the target fault event, avoiding simultaneous alarms for the target fault event and new target fault events, preventing confusion, and improving the accuracy of the instrument panel alarms.

[0053] In some embodiments, determining a target fault event from a plurality of fault events includes: determining the fault level of each fault event; and determining the fault event with the highest level among the plurality of fault events as the target fault event.

[0054] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the target fault event is the first fault event to trigger an alarm. The higher the fault level, the more the fault event affects the normal driving of the vehicle.

[0055] In this embodiment, the fault level of each fault event can reflect the degree of impact of each fault event on the overall driving of the vehicle. Based on this, the highest level fault event is identified as the target fault event, which can ensure that the most serious fault event is alerted first, so that the driver can be aware of and deal with the fault in a timely manner.

[0056] In some embodiments, after performing step S202, the method further includes: determining at least one unexecuted alarm event corresponding to the current alarm, and determining the fault level of the at least one unexecuted alarm event; and determining the highest level among the fault levels of the at least one unexecuted alarm event as the target fault event of the current alarm.

[0057] For example, if the vehicle controller detects 10 alarm events at the current moment, and the previous alarm fault event of the last alarm (6th time) was event B, then there are 4 unexecuted alarm events remaining. The vehicle controller determines the fault level of each of these 4 unexecuted fault events and determines the fault event with the highest fault level among these 4 unexecuted fault events as the target alarm event of the current alarm (7th time).

[0058] After completing the step of determining the highest level among the fault levels of at least one unexecuted alarm event as the target fault event for the current alarm, the step of sending the message information corresponding to the target fault event to the instrument panel of the target vehicle to issue an alarm is executed, and then the process returns to step S206 to continue execution.

[0059] In this embodiment, the fault level of each fault event can reflect the degree of impact of each fault event on the overall driving of the vehicle. Based on this, the highest level fault event is identified as the target fault event, which can ensure that the most serious fault event is alerted first, so that the driver can be aware of and deal with the fault in a timely manner.

[0060] In some embodiments, the message information includes at least one alarm method and alarm information corresponding to at least one alarm method.

[0061] For example, for the target fault event of the current alarm, the corresponding message information may include only one alarm method and the alarm information corresponding to that alarm method; or it may include multiple alarm methods and the alarm information corresponding to each alarm method.

[0062] For example, for the target fault event of the current alarm, the alarm method can be only an audible alarm, such as a buzzer beeping 5 times, or only a text alarm, such as displaying text content for 30 seconds. Of course, it can also be a combination of audible and text alarms, such as a buzzer beeping 5 times and displaying text content about the target fault event for 30 seconds.

[0063] Of course, it is understandable that the alarm methods of any two alarm events can be the same or different, and the alarm information of any two alarm events can be the same or different, without any specific restrictions.

[0064] In this embodiment, by determining the message information through the alarm method and the alarm information corresponding to the alarm method, the instrument can be accurately and timely instructed to effectively alarm the target alarm event.

[0065] In some embodiments, sending a message corresponding to a target fault event to the instrument panel of the target vehicle to issue an alarm includes: determining the message corresponding to the target fault event based on the fault level of the target fault event; and sending the message corresponding to the target fault event to the instrument panel of the target vehicle to issue an alarm.

[0066] Optionally, the vehicle controller determines the fault level of the target fault event and, based on the correspondence between fault levels and message information, determines the message information corresponding to the target fault event. The vehicle controller then sends the message information corresponding to the target fault event to the instrument panel of the target vehicle to issue an alarm.

[0067] It should be noted that, in order to enable drivers to promptly determine the severity of a target malfunction event, there are three malfunction severity levels, ranked from highest to lowest: Type 1, Type 2, and Type 3. Correspondingly, Type 1 malfunction messages include two alarm methods: audible and text alarms. Type 2 malfunction messages have one alarm method: audible. Type 3 malfunction messages have one alarm method: text alarm. That is, if the current alarm event A is Type 1, it means that the target alarm event A seriously affects the safe driving of the vehicle. To fully alert the driver, multiple alarm methods need to be combined. If it is Type 2, it means that the target alarm event will affect the driving of the vehicle; in this case, an audible alarm, which is more likely to attract the driver's attention, can be used. If it is Type 3, it means that the target alarm event will not affect the driving of the vehicle in the short term, but may affect it in the future; therefore, a text alarm can be used.

[0068] Optionally, the vehicle controller determines the type of the fault level of the target fault event, and determines the corresponding alarm method based on the type. The vehicle controller determines the alarm information of the corresponding alarm method based on the fault level of the target fault event. The vehicle controller determines the message information corresponding to the target fault event based on the corresponding alarm method and alarm information, and sends the message information corresponding to the target fault event to the instrument panel of the target vehicle to issue an alarm.

[0069] In this embodiment, by determining the corresponding message information for the target fault event based on its fault level, the system ensures effective alerting of the driver. The message information corresponding to the target fault event is sent to the instrument panel of the target vehicle to issue a warning, enabling the driver to respond promptly and ensuring safe driving.

[0070] In some embodiments, the method further includes: determining whether the alarm channel of the target vehicle is occupied based on whether an alarm end signal sent by the instrument is received; the alarm end signal is generated when the instrument determines that at least one alarm method has been completed after issuing an alarm based on the alarm information corresponding to at least one alarm method.

[0071] It should be noted that once an alarm end signal is received, the target vehicle confirms that the alarm channel is not occupied. This refers to the alarm channel corresponding to the message information. For example, if the current alarm is a text alarm, and an end alarm signal is sent to the vehicle controller after the text alarm ends, the target vehicle confirms that the alarm channel corresponding to the text alarm is not occupied. It will not confirm alarms not involved in the target alarm event; that is, the vehicle controller will not confirm the alarm channel for an audible alarm. Similarly, if the current alarm is an audible alarm, and an end alarm signal is sent to the vehicle controller after the audible alarm ends, the target vehicle confirms that the alarm channel corresponding to the audible alarm is not occupied. It will not confirm alarms not involved in the target alarm event; that is, the vehicle controller will not confirm the alarm channel for a text alarm. Likewise, if the current alarm is both an audible and a text alarm, and an end alarm signal is sent to the vehicle controller after both the audible and text alarms end, the target vehicle confirms that the alarm channels corresponding to each of the audible and text alarms are not occupied. In other words, after the vehicle controller receives the alarm end signal, it determines whether the alarm channel that was open when the alarm occurred should be closed after the alarm ends.

[0072] Optionally, after receiving the message information corresponding to the target alarm event, the instrument executes the corresponding alarm according to the message information. If the alarm method in the message information is a text alarm, the corresponding alarm information is the text display content and the text display duration threshold. During the alarm execution process, the text alarm channel is opened (occupied). The instrument determines whether the text display duration at the target time is equal to the text display duration threshold. If it is equal, the instrument determines that the text alarm method is completed, generates an alarm end signal, and stops the alarm. The alarm channel status corresponding to the text alarm is switched to an unoccupied state, and the corresponding alarm end signal is sent to the vehicle controller. The vehicle controller receives the alarm end signal and determines that the alarm channel of the alarm method corresponding to the target alarm event is unoccupied.

[0073] If the alarm method in the message information is an audible alarm, the corresponding alarm information is the alarm count threshold. During the alarm execution process, the audible alarm channel is activated (occupied). The instrument determines whether the number of alarms at the target time is equal to the alarm count threshold. If it is equal, the instrument determines that the audible alarm method is completed, generates an alarm end signal, and stops the alarm. The alarm channel corresponding to the audible alarm switches to an unoccupied state and sends the corresponding alarm end signal to the vehicle controller. The vehicle controller receives the alarm end signal and determines that the alarm channel corresponding to the alarm method of the target alarm event is not occupied.

[0074] If the alarm method in the message is both audible and text-based, the corresponding alarm information includes a threshold for the number of beeps, a threshold for the text display content, and a threshold for the text display duration. For example, if the buzzer sounds twice at a high volume (the threshold for the number of beeps is 2), the LCD screen displays the text message "Handbrake signal hard wire fault" for 30 seconds. During alarm execution, both the audible alarm channel and the text alarm channel are activated (occupied). The instrument determines whether the number of beeps at the target time equals the threshold for the number of beeps, and whether the text display duration equals the threshold for the text display duration. If the number of beeps reaches the threshold for the number of beeps and the text display duration reaches the threshold for the text display duration at the target time, then both the audible and text alarm methods are considered complete, an alarm end signal is generated, and the alarm is stopped. The alarm channel corresponding to the audible alarm switches to an unoccupied state, and the alarm channel corresponding to the text alarm switches to an unoccupied state. The instrument panel sends the corresponding alarm end signal to the vehicle controller. Upon receiving the alarm end signal, the vehicle controller determines that the alarm channel corresponding to the alarm format of the target alarm event is not occupied.

[0075] If the vehicle controller determines that the alarm channel is not occupied, the vehicle controller caches the corresponding alarm end signal.

[0076] In this embodiment, by receiving an alarm end signal from the instrument cluster, the vehicle controller can directly determine whether the alarm channel of the target vehicle is occupied. The alarm end signal is generated by the instrument cluster after it has issued an alarm based on alarm information corresponding to at least one alarm method and determined that at least one alarm method has been completed. That is, the vehicle controller does not need to monitor the progress of the instrument cluster alarm. After sending a message to the instrument cluster, the vehicle controller only needs to wait for the alarm end signal. If the alarm end signal is received, it directly proceeds to the execution of the next alarm event.

[0077] In some embodiments, the method further includes clearing all alarm termination signals corresponding to the current time.

[0078] For example, if the target number of fault events are sent at the current moment, and each fault event alarm is completed, the vehicle controller will receive an alarm termination message from the instrument cluster for that fault event. Based on this, after completing the alarm for the target number of fault events, the vehicle controller will clear the target number of alarm termination messages.

[0079] In this embodiment, all alarm termination signals corresponding to the current moment are cleared to avoid occupying storage memory.

[0080] In a specific embodiment, the vehicle controller acquires multiple fault events occurring in the target vehicle at the current moment; the vehicle controller determines the fault level of each fault event; and identifies the highest-level fault event among the multiple fault events as the target fault event. Based on the fault level of the target fault event, the vehicle controller determines the corresponding message information; and sends the message information corresponding to the target fault event to the target vehicle's instrument cluster to issue an alarm. The message information includes at least one alarm method and alarm information corresponding to at least one alarm method. The vehicle controller determines whether the target vehicle's alarm channel is occupied based on whether it receives an alarm end signal from the instrument cluster; the alarm end signal is generated when the instrument cluster issues an alarm based on the alarm information corresponding to at least one alarm method and determines that at least one alarm method has been completed. If it is determined that the target vehicle's alarm channel is not occupied, a new target fault event is re-identified from the multiple fault events until multiple fault events have completed alarming. The vehicle controller clears all alarm end signals corresponding to the current moment.

[0081] In this embodiment, by acquiring multiple fault events occurring in the target vehicle at the current moment, the fault status of the target vehicle can be grasped in a timely manner. Based on this, a target fault event is determined from the multiple fault events, and the corresponding message information is sent to the target vehicle's instrument panel to issue an alarm. This ensures that the instrument panel can issue an appropriate alarm based on the message information, avoiding mismatched responses from the driver. If the alarm channel of the target vehicle is confirmed to be unobstructed, it is known in a timely manner that the alarm for the target fault event has been completed. Thus, a new target fault event is re-determined from the multiple fault events until all multiple fault events have been alarmed. That is, an alarm for a new current target fault event is only issued after the instrument panel has completed the alarm for the target fault event, avoiding simultaneous alarms for the target fault event and new target fault events, preventing confusion, and improving the accuracy of instrument panel alarms.

[0082] It should be understood that although the steps in the flowcharts of the embodiments described above are shown sequentially according to the arrows, these steps are not necessarily executed in the order indicated by the arrows. Unless explicitly stated herein, there is no strict order restriction on the execution of these steps, and they can be executed in other orders. Moreover, at least some steps in the flowcharts of the embodiments described above may include multiple steps or multiple stages. These steps or stages are not necessarily completed at the same time, but can be executed at different times. The execution order of these steps or stages is not necessarily sequential, but can be performed alternately or in turn with other steps or at least some of the steps or stages of other steps.

[0083] Based on the same inventive concept, this application also provides a vehicle instrument alarm device for implementing the aforementioned vehicle instrument alarm method. The solution provided by this device is similar to the implementation described in the above method; therefore, the specific limitations of one or more vehicle instrument alarm device embodiments provided below can be found in the limitations of the vehicle instrument alarm method described above, and will not be repeated here.

[0084] In one embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown, a warning device 400 for a vehicle instrument panel is provided, including: an acquisition module 402, a transmission module 404, and a determination module 406, wherein:

[0085] The acquisition module 402 is used to acquire multiple fault events that occur in the target vehicle at the current moment;

[0086] The sending module 404 is used to determine the target fault event from multiple fault events and send the message information corresponding to the target fault event to the instrument panel of the target vehicle to issue an alarm.

[0087] The determination module 406 is used to re-determine a new target fault event from multiple fault events when the alarm channel of the target vehicle is determined to be unoccupied, until multiple fault events complete the alarm.

[0088] In some embodiments, the sending module 404 is used to determine the fault level of each fault event; and to determine the fault event with the highest level among the multiple fault events as the target fault event.

[0089] In some implementations, the message information includes at least one alarm method and the alarm information corresponding to at least one alarm method.

[0090] In some embodiments, the sending module 404 is configured to determine the message information corresponding to the target fault event based on the fault level of the target fault event; and send the message information corresponding to the target fault event to the instrument panel of the target vehicle to issue an alarm.

[0091] In some embodiments, the determining module 406 is further configured to determine whether the alarm channel of the target vehicle is occupied based on whether an alarm end signal sent by the instrument is received; the alarm end signal is generated by the instrument after it has issued an alarm based on the alarm information corresponding to at least one alarm method and determined that at least one alarm method has been completed.

[0092] In some embodiments, the device further includes a clearing module, which is used to clear all alarm end signals corresponding to the current time.

[0093] The various modules in the warning device of the aforementioned vehicle instrument panel can be implemented entirely or partially through software, hardware, or a combination thereof.
