Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of vehicle safety technology, and in particular to a method, device and computer-readable storage medium for biological monitoring under a vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] With the increasing number of vehicles on the road, traffic safety has become a major hidden danger. In particular, if a living being (e.g., a child, pet) is hidden under the vehicle during the starting or parking phase, the driver's inability to detect the living being's characteristics comprehensively during these phases can easily lead to serious consequences.

[0003] However, most current car accident alarm and emergency response systems are applied inside the vehicle, which means they require other auxiliary communication terminals or can only connect to some unique software service platforms, and cannot achieve fully automatic monitoring, alarm and emergency response.

[0004] Therefore, how to detect organisms under vehicles and provide timely and effective warnings to drivers is a technical problem that needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the aforementioned technical deficiencies in the prior art, this invention proposes a method for monitoring biological activity under vehicles, comprising:

[0006] When the vehicle is powered on, the thermal imaging device at the bottom of the vehicle detects whether there are thermally sensitive biological objects within the first area under the vehicle.

[0007] If the thermally sensitive biological object is detected within the first vehicle undercarriage area, the vehicle is prohibited from switching from parking gear to drive gear; if the thermally sensitive biological object is not detected within the first vehicle undercarriage area, the vehicle is allowed to switch from parking gear to drive gear.

[0008] While maintaining the gear shifting prohibition state, the visual imaging device at the bottom of the vehicle detects whether there are visual biological objects within the second vehicle bottom range;

[0009] If the visual bio-object is detected within the second vehicle underside area, the prohibition state is maintained; if the visual bio-object is not detected within the second vehicle underside area, an image within the second vehicle underside area is displayed on the vehicle's infotainment screen, and the prohibition state is lifted after user confirmation.

[0010] Optionally, the step of preventing the vehicle from switching from parking to driving if the presence of the thermally sensitive biological object within the first vehicle undercarriage area is detected further includes:

[0011] Obtain the first object position of the thermally sensitive biological object;

[0012] Determine whether the first object is located within the second vehicle underside range. If the first object is located within the second vehicle underside range, then execute the step of detecting whether there is a visual biological object within the second vehicle underside range using a visual imaging device at the bottom of the vehicle. If the object is not located within the second vehicle underside range, then remind the driver to get out of the vehicle to check.

[0013] Optionally, obtaining the object location of the thermally sensitive biological object further includes:

[0014] Identify the first relative positional relationship between the position of the first object and the position of the wheel;

[0015] The type of the prohibited state is determined based on the first relative position relationship, wherein the type includes prohibiting the vehicle from switching from parking gear to drive gear, prohibiting the vehicle from switching from parking gear to drive gear, and prohibiting the vehicle from switching from parking gear to reverse gear.

[0016] Optionally, maintaining the prohibited state if the visual bio-object is detected within the second vehicle underside area further includes:

[0017] Obtain the second object position of the visual biological object, and identify the second relative positional relationship between the second object position and the wheel position;

[0018] If the first relative positional relationship is consistent with the second relative positional relationship, then the thermally sensitive biological object and the visual biological object are determined to be the same object; if the first relative positional relationship is inconsistent with the second relative positional relationship, then the thermally sensitive biological object and the visual biological object are determined to be different objects.

[0019] Optionally, maintaining the prohibited state if the visual bio-object is detected within the second vehicle underside area further includes:

[0020] If the thermally sensitive biological object and the visual biological object are the same object, then the prohibited state is maintained;

[0021] If the thermally sensitive biological object and the visual biological object are different objects, the type of the prohibition state is determined jointly based on the first relative positional relationship and the second relative positional relationship. The type includes prohibiting the vehicle from switching from parking gear to driving gear, prohibiting the vehicle from switching from parking gear to forward gear, and prohibiting the vehicle from switching from parking gear to reverse gear.

[0022] The present invention also proposes a vehicle under-vehicle biological monitoring device, which includes a memory, a processor, and a computer program stored in the memory and executable on the processor. When the computer program is executed by the processor, it implements the following:

[0023] When the vehicle is powered on, the thermal imaging device at the bottom of the vehicle detects whether there are thermally sensitive biological objects within the first area under the vehicle.

[0024] If the thermally sensitive biological object is detected within the first vehicle undercarriage area, the vehicle is prohibited from switching from parking gear to drive gear; if the thermally sensitive biological object is not detected within the first vehicle undercarriage area, the vehicle is allowed to switch from parking gear to drive gear.

[0025] While maintaining the gear shifting prohibition state, the visual imaging device at the bottom of the vehicle detects whether there are visual biological objects within the second vehicle bottom range;

[0026] If the visual bio-object is detected within the second vehicle underside area, the prohibition state is maintained; if the visual bio-object is not detected within the second vehicle underside area, an image within the second vehicle underside area is displayed on the vehicle's infotainment screen, and the prohibition state is lifted after user confirmation.

[0027] Optionally, the computer program is implemented when executed by the processor as follows:

[0028] Obtain the first object position of the thermally sensitive biological object;

[0029] Determine whether the first object is located within the second vehicle underside range. If the first object is located within the second vehicle underside range, then execute the step of detecting whether there is a visual biological object within the second vehicle underside range using a visual imaging device at the bottom of the vehicle. If the object is not located within the second vehicle underside range, then remind the driver to get out of the vehicle to check.

[0030] Optionally, the computer program is implemented when executed by the processor as follows:

[0031] Identify the first relative positional relationship between the position of the first object and the position of the wheel;

[0034] Obtain the second object position of the visual biological object, and identify the second relative positional relationship between the second object position and the wheel position;

[0035] If the first relative positional relationship is consistent with the second relative positional relationship, then the thermal-sensing biological object and the visual biological object are determined to be the same object; if the first relative positional relationship is inconsistent with the second relative positional relationship, then the thermal-sensing biological object and the visual biological object are determined to be different objects.

[0036] If the thermally sensitive biological object and the visual biological object are the same object, then the prohibited state is maintained;

[0037] If the thermally sensitive biological object and the visual biological object are different objects, the type of the prohibition state is determined jointly based on the first relative positional relationship and the second relative positional relationship. The type includes prohibiting the vehicle from switching from parking gear to driving gear, prohibiting the vehicle from switching from parking gear to forward gear, and prohibiting the vehicle from switching from parking gear to reverse gear.

[0038] The present invention also proposes a computer-readable storage medium storing a vehicle under-body biological monitoring program, which, when executed by a processor, implements the steps of the vehicle under-body biological monitoring method as described in any of the preceding claims.

[0039] The present invention implements a vehicle undercarriage biological monitoring method, device, and computer-readable storage medium. When the vehicle is powered on, a thermal imaging device on the undercarriage detects the presence of a thermally sensitive biological object within a first area under the vehicle. If the thermally sensitive biological object is detected within the first area, the vehicle is prohibited from shifting from parking to driving. If the thermally sensitive biological object is not detected within the first area, the vehicle is allowed to shift from parking to driving. While maintaining the prohibited shifting state, a visual imaging device on the undercarriage detects the presence of a visual biological object within a second area under the vehicle. If the visual biological object is detected within the second area, the prohibited state is maintained. If the visual biological object is not detected within the second area, an image of the second area is displayed on the vehicle's infotainment screen, and the prohibited state is lifted upon user confirmation. This achieves an adaptive vehicle undercarriage biological monitoring scheme, providing the driver with timely and effective identification and alerts regarding biological entities under the vehicle, enhancing safety during vehicle start-up.

[0046] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.

[0047] In the following description, the use of suffixes such as "module," "part," or "unit" to denote elements is solely for the purpose of illustrative purposes and has no specific meaning in itself. Therefore, "module," "part," or "unit" may be used interchangeably.

[0048] Figure 1 This is a first flowchart of the vehicle undercarriage biological monitoring method of the present invention. This embodiment proposes a vehicle undercarriage biological monitoring method, which includes:

[0049] S1. When the vehicle is powered on, the thermal imaging device at the bottom of the vehicle detects whether there are thermally sensitive biological objects within the first area under the vehicle.

[0050] S2. If the thermally sensitive biological object is detected within the first vehicle undercarriage area, the vehicle is prohibited from switching from parking gear to driving gear; if the thermally sensitive biological object is not detected within the first vehicle undercarriage area, the vehicle is allowed to switch from parking gear to driving gear.

[0051] S3. While maintaining the gear shifting prohibition state, the visual imaging device at the bottom of the vehicle detects whether there are any visual biological objects within the second vehicle bottom range;

[0052] S4. If the visual biological object is detected within the second vehicle underside area, the prohibition state is maintained; if the visual biological object is not detected within the second vehicle underside area, an image within the second vehicle underside area is displayed on the vehicle screen, and the prohibition state is lifted after user confirmation.

[0053] Optionally, in this embodiment, the vehicle is equipped with a biological detection device. The device body includes a retractable camera, which is placed at the center of the four tires under the vehicle. It is used for detecting biological activity during vehicle startup or parking and for reporting data. The biological detection device is connected to the vehicle's central control system via a CAN bus for data reporting. The biological detection device is also compatible with thermal imaging equipment, enabling thermal imaging detection of biological activity under the vehicle. That is, the biological detection device includes both thermal imaging equipment and visual imaging equipment as described in this embodiment. Optionally, the two types of equipment can be integrated into the same device or installed independently at relevant locations under the vehicle.

[0054] Optionally, in this embodiment, when a vehicle ignition action is detected, the thermal imaging device is activated to detect thermal data of the vehicle chassis. Simultaneously, the thermal data is transmitted to the vehicle's central control unit, which analyzes the transmitted thermal data.

[0055] Optionally, in this embodiment, the movement of the thermally sensitive organism is detected. If the thermal sensor detects movement, it indicates the presence of a corresponding organism under the vehicle, and the central control system controls the gear shift and issues an alarm. For example, the vehicle is prevented from shifting from P to D or R, and an alarm is issued via the vehicle's infotainment system and / or speakers. For instance, the alarm unit issues a warning: "A living organism is present under the vehicle. Please turn off the engine and get out to check."

[0056] Optionally, in this embodiment, the body shape and status of the organism are detected. For example, the vehicle's central control analysis unit performs thermal imaging to detect shapes resembling people or pets, but without movement. Similarly, if a corresponding organism is detected under the vehicle, gear shifting and warnings are issued via the central control system. For example, the vehicle may be prevented from shifting from P to D or R, and a warning may be issued via the vehicle's infotainment system and / or speakers. For example, the warning unit may issue a warning: "A living organism is present under the vehicle. Please turn off the engine and get out to check."

[0057] Optionally, in this embodiment, the visual imaging device includes a retractable camera. When the vehicle detects an ignition action, the retractable camera extends. This camera has a 360-degree wide-angle lens, which can transmit images of the underside of the vehicle to the in-vehicle central control display screen from all angles. The driver can clearly see whether there are obstacles or living organisms under the vehicle. For example, if thermal imaging detects a living organism, the driver can judge the situation under the vehicle based on the content of the retractable camera image, making a more intuitive judgment. Alternatively, if thermal imaging reports no danger and the vehicle can start normally, the retractable camera retracts when the driver changes gears from P to D or R. Optionally, the camera is concealed in the vehicle chassis when not in use, thereby protecting the camera's safety.

[0058] Optionally, in this embodiment, a storage mechanism is provided to save relevant data in real time. Optionally, long-term detection data can be saved according to the storage space size. Furthermore, the stored vehicle startup detection data is analyzed to facilitate the provision of long-term vehicle status detection data.

[0059] The beneficial effect of this embodiment is that, when the vehicle is powered on, a thermal imaging device under the vehicle detects whether a thermally sensitive biological object exists within a first area under the vehicle. If the thermally sensitive biological object is detected within the first area under the vehicle, the vehicle is prohibited from shifting from parking to driving. If the thermally sensitive biological object is not detected within the first area under the vehicle, the vehicle is allowed to shift from parking to driving. While maintaining the prohibited shifting state, a visual imaging device under the vehicle detects whether a visual biological object exists within a second area under the vehicle. If the visual biological object is detected within the second area under the vehicle, the prohibited state is maintained. If the visual biological object is not detected within the second area under the vehicle, an image of the second area under the vehicle is displayed on the vehicle's infotainment screen, and the prohibited state is lifted after user confirmation. This achieves an adaptive under-vehicle biological monitoring scheme, providing the driver with timely and effective identification and alerts regarding biological entities under the vehicle, enhancing safety when starting the vehicle.

[0060] Figure 2 This is a second flowchart of the vehicle undercarriage biological monitoring method of the present invention. Based on the above embodiment, the step of prohibiting the vehicle from switching from parking gear to driving gear if the thermally sensitive biological object is detected within the first vehicle undercarriage area further includes:

[0061] S21. Obtain the first object position of the thermally sensitive biological object;

[0062] S22. Determine whether the first object is located within the second vehicle underside range. If the first object is located within the second vehicle underside range, then execute the step of detecting whether there is a visual biological object within the second vehicle underside range using the visual imaging device at the bottom of the vehicle. If the object is not located within the second vehicle underside range, then remind the driver to get out of the vehicle to check.

[0063] Optionally, in this embodiment, if the first object is located within the second vehicle underside area, a step is performed to detect whether there is a visual biological object within the second vehicle underside area using a visual imaging device at the bottom of the vehicle. This makes it easier for the driver to intuitively perceive the living object and identify its location, making the inspection more efficient.

[0064] Optionally, in this embodiment, if the object is not located within the second vehicle underside area, the driver is reminded to get out of the vehicle to check. The thermal imaging location of the organism can also be displayed on the vehicle's infotainment screen to help the driver identify its location, making the check more efficient.

[0065] Figure 3 This is the third flowchart of the vehicle under-vehicle biological monitoring method of the present invention. Based on the above embodiments, obtaining the object location of the thermally sensitive biological object further includes:

[0066] S23. Identify the first relative positional relationship between the position of the first object and the position of the wheel;

[0067] S24. Determine the type of the prohibited state based on the first relative position relationship, wherein the type includes prohibiting the vehicle from switching from the parking gear to the drive gear, prohibiting the vehicle from switching from the parking gear to the forward gear, and prohibiting the vehicle from switching from the parking gear to the reverse gear.

[0068] Optionally, in this embodiment, when it is determined that the organism is at the front of the vehicle, the vehicle is prohibited from switching from the parking gear to the forward gear, but the vehicle is not prohibited from switching from the parking gear to the reverse gear. On the one hand, this avoids running over the organism while driving forward, and on the other hand, if the driver cannot get the organism away after getting out of the vehicle, the vehicle can be avoided by reversing.

[0069] Optionally, in this embodiment, when it is determined that the organism is at the rear of the vehicle, the vehicle is prohibited from switching from the parking gear to the reverse gear, but the vehicle is not prohibited from switching from the parking gear to the forward gear. On the one hand, this avoids running over the organism while driving forward. On the other hand, if the driver cannot get the organism away after getting out of the vehicle, the vehicle can be driven forward to avoid the organism.

[0070] Optionally, in this embodiment, when it is determined that the organism is in the middle of the vehicle, the vehicle is prohibited from switching from the parking gear to the forward gear, and at the same time, the vehicle is also prohibited from switching from the parking gear to the reverse gear, thereby effectively preventing the organism from being run over by the vehicle while moving forward or backward.

[0071] Figure 4 This is the fourth flowchart of the vehicle under-vehicle biological monitoring method of the present invention. Based on the above embodiments, the step of maintaining the prohibited state if the visual biological object is detected within the second vehicle under-vehicle area further includes:

[0072] S41. Obtain the second object position of the visual biological object, and identify the second relative positional relationship between the second object position and the wheel position;

[0073] S42. If the first relative positional relationship is consistent with the second relative positional relationship, then the thermally sensitive biological object and the visual biological object are determined to be the same object; if the first relative positional relationship is inconsistent with the second relative positional relationship, then the thermally sensitive biological object and the visual biological object are determined to be different objects.

[0074] Optionally, in this embodiment, a four-wheeled vehicle is used as an example for explanation. The four wheels form a planar coordinate system. One wheel can be selected as the origin to obtain the coordinate position of the object under the two recognition methods. If the positions are the same, they are the same object; if the positions are different, they are different objects.

[0075] Figure 5 This is the fifth flowchart of the vehicle under-car biological monitoring method of the present invention. Based on the above embodiments, the step of maintaining the prohibited state if the visual biological object is detected within the second vehicle under-car area further includes:

[0076] S43. If the thermally sensitive biological object and the visual biological object are the same object, then the prohibited state is maintained;

[0077] S44. If the thermally sensitive biological object and the visual biological object are different objects, the type of the prohibition state is determined jointly based on the first relative position relationship and the second relative position relationship. The type includes prohibiting the vehicle from switching from parking gear to driving gear, prohibiting the vehicle from switching from parking gear to forward gear, and prohibiting the vehicle from switching from parking gear to reverse gear.

[0078] Optionally, in this embodiment, if the thermally sensing biological object and the visual biological object are the same object, the prohibited state is maintained. That is, it can be one of prohibiting the vehicle from switching from parking gear to driving gear, prohibiting the vehicle from switching from parking gear to forward gear, and prohibiting the vehicle from switching from parking gear to reverse gear.

[0079] Optionally, in this embodiment, if the thermally sensing biological object and the visual biological object are different objects, it is necessary to determine the respective positions of the two objects. For example:

[0080] When it is determined that both organisms are in front of the vehicle, the vehicle is prohibited from shifting from parking gear to forward gear, but it is not prohibited from shifting from parking gear to reverse gear. On the one hand, this is to avoid running over the organisms while driving forward, and on the other hand, if the driver cannot get the organisms away after getting out of the vehicle, the vehicle can be reversed to avoid them.

[0081] When it is determined that both organisms are at the rear of the vehicle, the vehicle is prohibited from shifting from parking gear to reverse gear, but it is not prohibited from shifting from parking gear to drive gear. On the one hand, this avoids running over the organisms while driving forward. On the other hand, if the driver cannot get the organisms away after getting out of the vehicle, the vehicle can still avoid them by driving forward.

[0082] When it is determined that both organisms are in the middle of the vehicle, the vehicle is prohibited from shifting from parking gear to forward gear, and at the same time, the vehicle is also prohibited from shifting from parking gear to reverse gear, thereby effectively preventing the vehicle from running over the organisms while moving forward or backward.

[0083] When it is determined that one organism is at the front and the other at the rear, the vehicle is prohibited from shifting from parking gear to forward gear, and at the same time, the vehicle is also prohibited from shifting from parking gear to reverse gear, thereby effectively preventing the vehicle from running over the organisms while driving forward or backward.

When the computer program is executed by the processor, it implements the following:

[0085] When the vehicle is powered on, the thermal imaging device at the bottom of the vehicle detects whether there are thermally sensitive biological objects within the first area under the vehicle.

[0087] While maintaining the gear shifting prohibition state, the visual imaging device at the bottom of the vehicle detects whether there are visual biological objects within the second vehicle bottom range;

[0088] If the visual bio-object is detected within the second vehicle underside area, the prohibition state is maintained; if the visual bio-object is not detected within the second vehicle underside area, an image within the second vehicle underside area is displayed on the vehicle's infotainment screen, and the prohibition state is lifted after user confirmation.

[0089] Optionally, the computer program is implemented when executed by the processor as follows:

[0090] Obtain the first object position of the thermally sensitive biological object;

[0091] Determine whether the first object is located within the second vehicle underside range.

[0095] Optionally, the computer program is implemented when executed by the processor as follows:

[0096] Obtain the second object position of the visual biological object, and identify the second relative positional relationship between the second object position and the wheel position;

[0097] If the first relative positional relationship is consistent with the second relative positional relationship, then the thermal-sensing biological object and the visual biological object are determined to be the same object; if the first relative positional relationship is inconsistent with the second relative positional relationship, then the thermal-sensing biological object and the visual biological object are determined to be different objects.

[0098] If the thermally sensitive biological object and the visual biological object are the same object, then the prohibited state is maintained;
