Description

[0001] Cross-references to related applications

[0002] This application is based on and claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202210527528.9, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field

[0003] This disclosure relates to the field of intelligent vehicle technology, specifically to a vehicle horn control method, device, electronic device, and storage medium. Background Technology

[0004] Currently, almost all vehicles on the market have their horn buttons located in the center of the steering wheel, and drivers have long been accustomed to pressing this button while driving. However, this single method of triggering the horn cannot meet the diverse needs of users in various scenarios. For example, fixing the horn button in the center of the steering wheel is very detrimental to driving safety in certain driving scenarios (such as straight driving or curves with very small radius), because when the horn needs to be sounded, one hand must be taken off the steering wheel to press the horn button, directly endangering driving safety. However, there are no other ways to trigger the horn. Therefore, the existing vehicle horn triggering method is too simplistic and cannot meet the needs of diverse horn-sounding scenarios. Summary of the Invention

[0026] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this disclosure, the solutions disclosed herein will be further described below. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described herein can be combined with each other.

[0027] Numerous specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of this disclosure, but this disclosure may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein; obviously, the embodiments in the specification are only some, and not all, of the embodiments of this disclosure.

[0028] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of a vehicle horn control method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The method can be executed by a vehicle horn control device, which can be implemented in software and / or hardware and can be configured in a vehicle. Optionally, some modules of the device can be configured in the vehicle, while the remaining modules can be configured in a cloud server connected to the vehicle. This method is applicable to vehicles including voice-based horn triggering devices and button-based horn triggering devices. The voice-based horn triggering device can be a device capable of collecting voice commands; exemplarily, it is a voice acquisition device, such as a microphone. The button-based horn triggering device refers to a horn button. In practice, there are various locations for the horn button, and this application does not limit this. Exemplarily, the horn button is located on the periphery of the vehicle steering wheel or in the center of the vehicle steering wheel. Preferably, the location of the horn button includes at least one of the following: the three o'clock position on the edge of the vehicle steering wheel, the nine o'clock position on the edge of the vehicle steering wheel, and the center of the vehicle steering wheel.

[0029] In one embodiment, the vehicle is equipped with four horn triggers, one of which is a voice-activated horn trigger, and the other three are button-type horn triggers. Specifically, the three button-type horn triggers include a horn button located at the three o'clock position on the edge of the vehicle's steering wheel, a horn button located at the nine o'clock position on the edge of the vehicle's steering wheel, and a horn button located at the center of the vehicle's steering wheel.

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, the method may specifically include:

[0031] S1. Obtain the trigger operation for any type of horn trigger device.

[0032] If the horn triggering device is a voice-type horn triggering device, the triggering operation for the voice-type horn triggering device includes a voice control command for controlling the horn; if the horn triggering device is a button-type horn triggering device, the triggering operation for the button-type horn triggering device includes a pressing operation for the button-type horn triggering device.

[0033] S2. Based on the trigger operation, control the vehicle to sound its horn.

[0034] The aforementioned technical solution includes both voice-activated and button-activated horn triggers in the vehicle. Triggering operations on either type of trigger are received; based on these operations, the vehicle is controlled to sound its horn. This solution provides multiple methods for controlling the vehicle's horn, including voice and button inputs. Users can choose the horn triggering method that minimizes the impact on driving safety, thus improving safety. For example, using voice commands to control the horn allows the user to keep both hands on the steering wheel, further enhancing safety.

[0035] Figure 2 This is a flowchart of another vehicle horn control method according to an embodiment of this disclosure. Figure 2 for Figure 1 A specific example. See [the source]. Figure 2 The method includes:

[0036] S110, Obtain the trigger operation for any type of horn trigger device.

[0037] S120. Obtain vehicle driving scenario information.

[0038] Driving scenario information refers to information that describes the current driving status of a vehicle and the conditions of its environment. For example, driving scenario information includes vehicle speed, steering wheel angle, and the distance of obstacles around the vehicle.

[0039] In this application, the horn triggering device includes a voice-type horn triggering device, which allows users to control the vehicle to sound its horn by speaking voice control commands.

[0040] In practice, the voice control commands spoken by the user may not be for controlling the vehicle's horn; for example, the user might speak a voice control command to adjust the vehicle's air conditioning temperature. Therefore, optionally, this step may further include: acquiring the user's voice control information; converting the user's voice control information into text information; determining whether the text information contains keywords for horn control; and if so, acquiring the vehicle's driving scenario information. Specifically, if the text information contains keywords for horn control, it indicates that the user's voice control command can be considered a control command for controlling the vehicle's horn.

[0041] The conversion of user voice control information into text information can be performed by the vehicle's infotainment system or by a cloud server; this application does not impose any restrictions on this.

[0042] S130. Based on driving scenario information, determine whether the triggered operation is valid.

[0043] The purpose of this step is to determine whether it is necessary to honk the horn at this time, and to avoid accidentally triggering the vehicle to honk its horn.

[0044] There are multiple ways to implement this step, and this application does not limit them. Optionally, the implementation method of this step includes: obtaining the judgment conditions corresponding to the triggered horn trigger device; different horn trigger devices correspond to different judgment conditions; and judging whether the triggering operation is valid based on driving scene information and judgment conditions.

[0045] Optionally, the driving scenario information includes: the vehicle speed, the distance of the obstacle from the vehicle, and the steering wheel rotation angle of the vehicle; based on the driving scenario information and the judgment conditions, it is determined whether the triggering operation is valid, including: when the horn triggering device is triggered, based on at least one of the vehicle speed, the distance of the obstacle from the vehicle, and the steering wheel rotation angle of the vehicle, it is determined whether the judgment condition corresponding to the horn triggering device is met; if the judgment condition corresponding to the horn triggering device is met, the triggering operation is determined to be valid; if the judgment condition corresponding to the horn triggering device is not met, the triggering operation is determined to be invalid.

[0046] Taking voice triggering as an example, in practice, passengers in a vehicle often chat with each other, and during these conversations, they may mention keywords that could be used to control the horn. Obviously, in such cases, honking is unnecessary. By setting a condition that the vehicle speed is within a set threshold range and the distance between the vehicle and an obstacle is less than or equal to a preset distance, the trigger operation is considered valid. Essentially, this determines whether honking is truly necessary. Only when it is determined that honking is indeed necessary (i.e., the trigger operation is valid) is the step of controlling the horn playback device in the vehicle to sound the horn allowed to continue. This setting can prevent accidental triggering.

[0047] For example, if the horn trigger device is a voice-activated horn trigger device, the judgment conditions corresponding to the horn trigger device include the vehicle speed being within a set threshold range and the distance between the obstacle and the vehicle being less than or equal to a preset distance, and the obstacle including pedestrians and / or vehicles; if the horn trigger device is a button-activated horn trigger device, the judgment conditions corresponding to the horn trigger device include the relationship between the rotation angle of the vehicle's steering wheel and a preset angle.

[0048] S140. If the triggering operation is valid, control the vehicle to sound its horn.

[0049] In one embodiment, if the horn triggering device is a voice acquisition device, the driving scene information includes the vehicle speed and the distance of obstacles around the vehicle; obstacles include pedestrians and / or vehicles. Based on the driving scene information and judgment conditions, the validity of the triggering operation is determined, including: if the vehicle speed is within a set threshold range and the distance of the obstacle from the vehicle is less than or equal to a preset distance, the triggering operation is deemed valid. In practice, it often happens that passengers in the vehicle chat with each other, and during this conversation, they may mention keywords that can be used for horn control. Obviously, in this situation, horn honking is not necessary. By setting the condition that the triggering operation is deemed valid if the vehicle speed is within a set threshold range and the distance of the obstacle from the vehicle is less than or equal to a preset distance, the system essentially determines whether horn honking is indeed necessary. Only when it is determined that horn honking is indeed necessary (i.e., the triggering operation is valid) is the step of controlling the horn sound playback device in the vehicle to honk the horn allowed to continue. This setting can avoid accidental activation from voice control commands.

[0050] In another embodiment, if the horn triggering device is a horn button, the driving scenario information includes the rotation angle of the vehicle steering wheel; based on the driving scenario information and the judgment conditions, it is determined whether the triggering operation is valid, including: determining whether the triggering operation is valid based on the relationship between the rotation angle of the steering wheel and the preset angle.

[0051] Furthermore, if the horn button is located at the three o'clock and / or nine o'clock position on the edge of the steering wheel, the validity of the triggering operation is determined based on the relationship between the steering wheel rotation angle and the preset angle. This includes determining the triggering operation as valid if the steering wheel rotation angle is less than or equal to the preset angle. Specifically, when the vehicle is driving straight or turning with a very small bend, the user only needs to make minor adjustments to the steering wheel rotation angle. Throughout the adjustment process, the user's left and right hands are always positioned on the left and right sides of the steering wheel, respectively. By setting the horn button at the three o'clock and / or nine o'clock position on the edge of the steering wheel, when a horn is needed, the user does not need to take their hands off the steering wheel; they only need to move their thumbs to press the horn button, which improves driving safety.

[0052] If the horn button is located in the center of the steering wheel, the validity of the trigger operation is determined based on the relationship between the steering wheel's rotation angle and a preset angle. Specifically, if the steering wheel's rotation angle is greater than the preset angle, the trigger operation is considered valid. In situations where the vehicle is turning with a sharp angle, the user needs to control the steering wheel with one hand, and the hand controlling the steering wheel is constantly moving relative to it. Positioning the horn button in the center of the steering wheel allows the user to quickly reach it without looking down at the steering wheel, thus improving driving safety.

[0053] The above technical solution obtains vehicle driving scenario information through settings; based on the driving scenario information, it determines whether the trigger operation is valid; if the trigger operation is valid, it controls the horn playback device in the vehicle to sound the horn. Essentially, this technical solution associates horn triggering with the driving scenario to determine if there is any accidental triggering, thereby ensuring that the horn sounds only when required by the scenario.

[0054] Based on the above technical solutions, optionally, user voice control information can be acquired, including: acquiring voice signals through an interrupt service routine. An interrupt service routine refers to a process where, when the processor is processing other data, if a voice signal is acquired, the processor pauses its current work to process the voice information. After processing is complete, it returns to the previously interrupted address and resumes its original work.

[0055] Normally, the input module periodically collects and processes trigger operations (including trigger operations on the voice acquisition device and trigger operations on the horn button). By setting the voice signal to be collected through an interrupt method, the purpose is to increase the priority of the voice signal input, so that the voice signal is processed as early as possible, thereby significantly shortening the time from voice information collection to processing, and shortening the time interval from the user issuing a voice command to the vehicle horn, so that the horn sound is played earlier.

[0056] It should be noted that, for the sake of simplicity, the foregoing method embodiments are all described as a series of actions. However, those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the described order of actions, because according to the present invention, some steps can be performed in other orders or simultaneously.
