Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of vehicle-related technology, and in particular to a method, electronic device and storage medium for switching vehicles based on a vehicle connectivity application. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of technology, vehicle-to-everything (V2X) technology is becoming increasingly mature, and the interaction between V2X applications and vehicles is becoming more and more sophisticated. However, some scenarios have not yet reached full intelligence. For example, when a user owns multiple vehicles and needs to switch between them, the user needs to manually select and switch the currently controlled vehicle through the V2X application.

[0003] According to the existing method of manually switching vehicles based on vehicle connectivity applications, the vehicle connectivity application on the mobile terminal sends a command to request the current location of the vehicle. The GPS on the vehicle receives the command and sends the current location of the vehicle to the vehicle connectivity application. The vehicle connectivity application obtains the current location of the mobile terminal and calculates the distance between the mobile terminal and the vehicle based on the current locations of the mobile terminal and the vehicle. The user then manually selects and switches the currently controlled vehicle based on the distance.

[0004] In the process of calculating the distance between the mobile terminal and the vehicle, there are problems such as excessively long response times and slow response speeds, which can easily affect the accuracy of the distance calculation and thus the accuracy of the currently controlled vehicle. Furthermore, since the current positions of both the mobile terminal and the vehicle are acquired during movement, there is a time discrepancy between the current positions of the mobile terminal and the vehicle obtained by the vehicle-to-everything (V2X) application. This mismatch in the acquisition times of the mobile terminal's current position and the vehicle's current position leads to a calculation error in the distance between the mobile terminal and the vehicle, affecting the accuracy of the distance calculation and consequently the accuracy of the currently controlled vehicle. Summary of the Invention

[0034] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a method 100 for switching vehicles based on a vehicle connectivity application, according to an exemplary embodiment of this application. This method 100 for switching vehicles based on a vehicle connectivity application can be executed, for example, by an electronic device such as a cloud server. Figure 1 As shown, the method 100 for switching vehicles based on a vehicle connectivity application includes:

[0035] S110. Synchronously obtain the location information of the mobile terminal with the vehicle connectivity application installed, as well as the location information of each vehicle bound to the mobile terminal.

[0036] S120. Determine the distance between the vehicle and the mobile terminal based on the location information, and divide all vehicles bound to the mobile terminal into at least one vehicle group based on the distance.

[0037] S130. Determine the vehicle group closest to the mobile terminal from all vehicle groups as the target vehicle group, and calculate the distance between each vehicle in the target vehicle group and the mobile terminal.

[0038] S140. Based on the distance between each vehicle in the target vehicle group and the mobile terminal, send an instruction to the vehicle-to-everything (V2X) application to switch the currently controlled vehicle.

[0039] The method provided in this application can synchronize the location information of mobile terminals and vehicles bound to them via a cloud server, improving response time and speed, and ensuring the consistency of location information between the mobile terminals and their bound vehicles. This, in turn, improves the accuracy of distance calculation between the vehicle and the mobile terminal, ensuring the accuracy of the commands sent by the cloud server to switch the currently controlled vehicle. Furthermore, this method can group all vehicles based on the distance between them and the mobile terminal, selecting the group of vehicles closest to the mobile terminal as the target vehicle group. Based on the distance between each vehicle in the target vehicle group and the mobile terminal, a command to switch the currently controlled vehicle is sent to the vehicle-to-everything (V2X) application, eliminating the need for manual switching or simplifying the user's switching process and improving the user experience.

[0040] The steps S110 to S140 of the exemplary embodiments of this application are described below by way of example.

[0041] Step S110

[0042] In an exemplary embodiment, synchronously acquiring the location information of a mobile terminal with a vehicle connectivity application installed, as well as the location information of each vehicle bound to the mobile terminal, includes:

[0043] In response to a user activating the vehicle connectivity application, the system synchronously acquires the real-time location information of the mobile terminal and the real-time location information of each vehicle bound to the mobile terminal. For example, in response to a user activating the vehicle connectivity application, the cloud server synchronously acquires the real-time location information of the mobile terminal and the real-time location information of each vehicle bound to the mobile terminal, and stores the real-time location information of the mobile terminal and vehicles on the cloud server so that the above location information can be directly retrieved when calculating the distance between the mobile terminal and the vehicle later.

[0044] By synchronizing the location information of mobile terminals and vehicles bound to them through cloud servers, response time and speed are improved, and the consistency of location information of mobile terminals and vehicles bound to them is ensured, thereby improving the accuracy of distance calculation between vehicles and mobile terminals.

[0045] It should be understood that, without departing from the teachings of this application, the location information of the mobile terminal and the location information of each vehicle bound to the mobile terminal can also be obtained in real time under other response conditions, and this application does not limit this.

[0046] Step S120

[0047] In an exemplary embodiment, during the movement of the vehicle and the mobile terminal, the distance between the vehicle and the mobile terminal at the same moment is determined based on the vehicle's location information and the mobile terminal's location information at the same moment. This can avoid calculation deviations in the distance between the vehicle and the mobile terminal and ensure the accuracy of the distance calculation between the vehicle and the mobile terminal.

[0048] In an exemplary embodiment, dividing all vehicles bound to the mobile terminal into at least one vehicle group based on the aforementioned distance includes:

[0049] All vehicles that are within a first preset range of distance from the mobile terminal and are bound to the mobile terminal are assigned to the first vehicle group; and

[0050] All vehicles that are within the Nth preset range of distance from the mobile terminal and are bound to the mobile terminal are assigned to the Nth vehicle group, where N≥2; and no two preset ranges overlap.

[0051] The following example illustrates this using the scenario of a user owning n vehicles linked to a mobile device:

[0052] If the distance between all vehicles and the mobile terminal is within the same preset range, then all vehicles are assigned to the same vehicle group. For example, if the distance between n vehicles and the mobile terminal is within a first preset range, then the n vehicles are assigned to the first vehicle group. The first preset range can be, for example, 0 to 100 meters. The first preset range is merely exemplary and is not limited thereto in this application.

[0053] If the distances between some vehicles and the mobile terminal are all within the same preset range, then these vehicles are all assigned to the same vehicle group. For example, if the distances between *a* vehicles and the mobile terminal are all within a first preset range, then *a* vehicles are all assigned to the first vehicle group; if the distances between *b* vehicles and the mobile terminal are all within a second preset range, then *b* vehicles are all assigned to the second vehicle group; where *a* + *b* = *n*, and the first and second preset ranges do not overlap. The first preset range may be, for example, 0–100 m, and the second preset range may be, for example, 100 m–1000 m. The first and second preset ranges are merely illustrative and are not intended to limit the scope of this application.

[0054] It should be understood that, without departing from the teachings of this application, vehicles bound to mobile terminals can be grouped in other ways, and this application does not limit this.

[0055] Step S130

[0056] In an exemplary embodiment, determining the vehicle group closest to the mobile terminal from all vehicle groups as the target vehicle group includes: selecting vehicle groups whose distances to the mobile terminal are all less than a first threshold as the target vehicle group. The first threshold is the highest limit of a first preset range, for example, the first threshold may be 100m. The target vehicle group is the first vehicle group.

[0057] It should be understood that, without departing from the teachings of this application, the target vehicle group may be determined by other means, and this application does not limit this.

[0058] In an exemplary embodiment, the real-time distance between each vehicle in the target vehicle group and the mobile terminal is calculated based on the real-time location information of each vehicle in the target vehicle group and the mobile terminal. This can avoid calculation deviations in the distance between the vehicle and the mobile terminal and ensure the accuracy of the distance calculation between the vehicle and the mobile terminal.

[0059] Step S140

[0060] In an exemplary implementation, sending instructions to the vehicle-to-everything (V2X) application to switch the currently controlled vehicle, based on the distance between each vehicle in the target vehicle group and the mobile terminal, includes:

[0061] In response to the situation where only one vehicle in the target vehicle group is less than a second threshold in distance from the mobile terminal, a command is sent to the vehicle-to-everything (V2X) application to switch the currently controlled vehicle to that single vehicle. For example, if only one vehicle in the target vehicle group is less than the second threshold in distance from the mobile terminal, the cloud server sends a command to the V2X application to switch the currently controlled vehicle to that single vehicle whose distance from the mobile terminal is less than the second threshold. The second threshold is less than the first threshold; for example, the second threshold may be less than 20 meters.

[0062] Based on the instructions sent from the cloud server to the vehicle connectivity application, the application can automatically switch the currently controlled vehicle, eliminating the need for the user to manually select and switch, thus improving the user experience.

[0063] In an exemplary implementation, sending instructions to the vehicle-to-everything (V2X) application to switch the currently controlled vehicle, based on the distance between each vehicle in the target vehicle group and the mobile terminal, includes:

[0064] In response to multiple vehicles in the target vehicle group being less than a second threshold distance from the mobile terminal, an instruction including vehicle information of the multiple vehicles is sent to the vehicle connectivity application, enabling the user to select one of the multiple vehicles as the currently controlled vehicle based on this information. For example, if multiple vehicles in the target vehicle group are less than the second threshold distance from the mobile terminal, the cloud server sends an instruction to the vehicle connectivity application to display the vehicle information of these multiple vehicles in a pop-up window, allowing the user to select one of the multiple vehicles as the currently controlled vehicle based on this information. The multiple vehicles refer to vehicles in the target vehicle group whose distance from the mobile terminal is less than the second threshold. The second threshold is less than the first threshold, and for example, the second threshold may be less than 20 meters.

[0065] Based on the instructions sent from the cloud server to the vehicle connectivity application, the application can directly display a pop-up window showing all vehicles in the target vehicle group whose distance from the mobile terminal is less than the second threshold. Users can select one of these vehicles as the currently controlled vehicle based on their own preferences, simplifying the user's selection and switching steps and improving the user experience.

[0066] The following example illustrates the above method 100 for switching vehicles based on a vehicle connectivity application, using a specific application scenario as an example.

[0067] like Figure 2 As shown, the application scenario is as follows: A user owns multiple vehicles, for example, three vehicles, specifically vehicle A, vehicle B, and vehicle C. Vehicle A and vehicle B are located in the same parking area, while vehicle C is located in a different parking area than the one where vehicles A and B are parked.

[0068] Combination Figure 3 This paper describes the workflow of method 100 for switching vehicles based on a vehicle connectivity application in the above application scenario. The detailed workflow is as follows:

[0069] In response to the user activating the vehicle connectivity application, the cloud server synchronously receives the location information of the mobile terminal, vehicle A, vehicle B, and vehicle C in real time.

[0070] Based on the location information mentioned above, the distances between vehicles A, B, and C and the mobile terminal are calculated, and vehicles A, B, and C are grouped according to these distances. For example, if the distances between vehicles A and B and the mobile terminal are both within a first preset range, then vehicles A and B are both assigned to the first vehicle group; if the distance between vehicle C and the mobile terminal is within a second preset range, then vehicle C is assigned to the second vehicle group. The second preset range does not overlap with the first preset range. The first preset range can be, for example, 0–100m, and the second preset range can be, for example, 100m–1000m.

[0071] The vehicle group closest to the mobile terminal from all vehicle groups is identified as the target vehicle group, specifically the first vehicle group containing vehicles A and B. The real-time distances between vehicles A, B, and the mobile terminal are calculated based on their real-time location information.

[0072] Based on the real-time distance between vehicle A, vehicle B, and the mobile terminal, the cloud server sends a command to the vehicle connectivity application to switch the currently controlled vehicle. When the real-time distance between only vehicle A or vehicle B and the mobile terminal is less than a second threshold, the cloud server sends a command to the vehicle connectivity application to switch the currently controlled vehicle to the vehicle (vehicle A or vehicle B) whose real-time distance to the mobile terminal is less than the second threshold. When the distances between both vehicle A and vehicle B and the mobile terminal are less than the second threshold, the cloud server sends a command to the vehicle connectivity application to display vehicle information for vehicle A and vehicle B in a pop-up window. This allows the vehicle connectivity application to display vehicle information for vehicle A and vehicle B in a pop-up window based on the vehicle information and the user's preferences, enabling the user to select vehicle A or vehicle B as the currently controlled vehicle based on the vehicle information and their own preferences. The second threshold is less than the first threshold, and the second threshold may be, for example, less than 20m.

[0073] Figure 4 This is a flowchart illustrating a method 400 for switching vehicles based on a vehicle connectivity application, according to an exemplary embodiment of this application. This method 400 for switching vehicles based on a vehicle connectivity application can, for example, be executed by a vehicle connectivity application on a mobile terminal. Figure 4 As shown, the method 400 for switching vehicles based on a vehicle connectivity application includes:

[0074] S410. Send the location information of the mobile terminal with the vehicle connectivity application installed to the cloud server in real time, wherein the cloud server determines the switching command based on the distance between the mobile terminal and each vehicle in the target vehicle group bound to the mobile terminal, and the target vehicle group is the group of vehicles closest to the mobile terminal determined based on the aforementioned location information; and

[0075] S420, in response to a switching command received from the cloud server, switches the currently controlled vehicle according to the switching command.

[0076] The cloud server can also obtain the location information of each vehicle in the target vehicle group. By synchronizing the location information of the mobile terminal and the vehicles through the cloud server, response time and speed can be improved, and the consistency of the location information of the mobile terminal and the vehicles can be ensured. This, in turn, improves the accuracy of distance calculation between the vehicle and the mobile terminal, ensuring the accuracy of the switching commands sent by the cloud server. In addition, by sending switching commands to the vehicle-to-everything (V2X) application, the cloud server can eliminate the need for users to manually select the switching step or simplify the switching process, thus improving the user experience.

[0077] The steps S410 to S420 of the exemplary embodiments of this application are described below by way of example.

[0078] Step S410

[0079] In an exemplary embodiment, in response to a user activating a vehicle connectivity application, the location information of the mobile terminal with the vehicle connectivity application installed is sent to the cloud server in real time. The cloud server can also simultaneously acquire the location information of each vehicle in the target vehicle group bound to the mobile terminal in real time, and determine a switching command based on the distance between each vehicle in the target vehicle group and the mobile terminal. The target vehicle group is the group of vehicles closest to the mobile terminal determined based on the aforementioned location information.

[0080] The methods used by the cloud server to determine the aforementioned target vehicle group include:

[0081] The location information of the mobile terminal with the vehicle-to-everything (V2X) application installed, as well as the location information of each vehicle bound to the mobile terminal, are obtained synchronously. The method for obtaining the location information is the same as step S110 in the exemplary embodiment described above, and will not be repeated here.

[0082] Based on the location information, the distance between the vehicle and the mobile terminal is determined, and all vehicles bound to the mobile terminal are divided into at least one vehicle group based on the distance. The method for calculating the distance between the vehicle and the mobile terminal and the method for grouping the vehicles bound to the mobile terminal are the same as step S120 in the exemplary embodiment described above, and will not be repeated here.

[0083] The vehicle group closest to the mobile terminal from all vehicle groups is selected as the target vehicle group. The method for selecting the target vehicle group from all vehicle groups is the same as step S130 in the exemplary embodiment described above, and will not be repeated here.

[0084] Step S420

[0085] In an exemplary implementation, responding to a switching instruction received from a cloud server, switching the currently controlled vehicle according to the switching instruction includes:

[0086] In response to a first handover command received from the cloud server based on the fact that only one vehicle in the target vehicle group is less than a second threshold distance from the mobile terminal, the currently controlled vehicle is switched to that single vehicle. For example, if only one vehicle in the target vehicle group is less than the second threshold distance from the mobile terminal, the cloud server sends a first handover command to the vehicle connectivity application. In response to the received first handover command, the vehicle connectivity application switches the currently controlled vehicle to the single vehicle whose distance from the mobile terminal is less than the second threshold. The second threshold is less than the first threshold, and the second threshold may be, for example, less than 20m.

[0087] Based on the first switching command sent from the cloud server to the vehicle application, the vehicle connectivity application can automatically switch the currently controlled vehicle, eliminating the need for the user to manually select and switch, thus improving the user experience.

[0088] In an exemplary implementation, responding to a switching instruction received from a cloud server, switching the currently controlled vehicle according to the switching instruction includes:

[0089] In response to a second handover command received from the cloud server based on the fact that the distance between multiple vehicles in the target vehicle group and the mobile terminal is less than a second threshold, the user selects one of the multiple vehicles and switches it to the currently controlled vehicle. The second handover command includes vehicle information of the multiple vehicles. For example, if multiple vehicles in the target vehicle group are less than the second threshold in distance from the mobile terminal, the cloud server sends the second handover command to the vehicle connectivity application. In response to the received second handover command, the vehicle connectivity application displays the vehicle information of the multiple vehicles in a pop-up window. The user then selects one of the multiple vehicles in the pop-up window based on the vehicle information and switches it to the currently controlled vehicle. The multiple vehicles refer to vehicles in the target vehicle group whose distance from the mobile terminal is less than the second threshold. The second threshold is less than the first threshold, and the second threshold may be, for example, less than 20 meters.

[0090] Based on the first switching command sent by the cloud server to the vehicle application, the vehicle-to-everything (V2X) application can directly display a pop-up window showing all vehicles in the target vehicle group whose distance from the mobile terminal is less than the second threshold. Users can select one of these vehicles as the currently controlled vehicle based on their own preferences, simplifying the user's selection and switching steps and improving the user experience.
