Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of computers, specifically to a method and device for indicating parking pause events, and a vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] During automatic parking, if an event triggers a parking pause, the vehicle must notify the user of the pause event so that the user can address it promptly. For example, the event triggering the parking pause could be the appearance of an obstacle in the parking path.

[0003] In related technologies, when multiple pause events exist, the vehicle typically prompts the multiple pause events sequentially based on the order in which they occur. This prompting method results in low efficiency in processing multiple pause events. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This application aims to at least partially address one of the technical problems in related technologies. To this end, one objective of this application is to provide a method, apparatus, and vehicle for alerting parking pause events. In the method, the vehicle can respond to a pause event that triggers parking pause, and alert the vehicle based on the area where the pause event occurs. The area where the pause event occurs can include either the interior or exterior areas of the vehicle. Because the alert can be based on the area where the pause event occurs, the flexibility and efficiency of alerting pause events are improved.

[0019] The embodiments of this application are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this application, and should not be construed as limiting this application.

[0020] During automatic parking, if an event triggers a parking pause, the vehicle must notify the user of the pause event so that the user can address it promptly. For example, the event triggering the parking pause could be the appearance of an obstacle in the parking path.

[0021] In related technologies, when multiple pause events exist, the vehicle typically prompts the multiple pause events sequentially based on the order in which they occur. This prompting method results in low efficiency in processing multiple pause events.

[0022] For example, if the vehicle's hood opens first, and then the door opens shortly afterward, the vehicle will first display a prompt and remain on the door-opening screen. At this point, the user only sees the door-opening prompt and will close the door first. However, because the hood is still open, the vehicle will then display and remain on the hood-opening screen again. The user will then need to open the door, get out, close the hood, and then close the door. This prompting method results in low efficiency in handling multiple paused events and a poor user experience.

[0023] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a method for alerting a parking pause event, as provided in an embodiment of this application. This method can be applied to vehicles. Figure 1 As shown, the method may include:

[0024] Step 101: Respond to the pause event that triggers parking pause.

[0025] During automatic parking, when a vehicle receives a parking pause command, it can respond to a pause event that triggers the parking pause.

[0026] Step 102: Based on the region where the pause event occurred, prompt for a pause event.

[0027] After a vehicle responds to a pause event, it can display a notification based on the location of the pause event. This location can be either inside or outside the vehicle.

[0028] Optionally, the vehicle can first notify users of pause events in the in-vehicle area, then notify them of pause events in the out-of-vehicle area, or vice versa. This allows users to handle pause events in the same area collectively, improving the efficiency of pause event handling. Furthermore, the vehicle can issue a notification message specifically for the pause event to ensure it is addressed.

[0029] In summary, this application provides a method for notifying a parking pause event. In this method, the vehicle can respond to a pause event that triggers parking pause, and a pause event is notified based on the area where the pause event occurs. The area where the pause event occurs can include the interior or exterior of the vehicle. Because the pause event can be notified based on its location, the flexibility and efficiency of notifying pause events are improved.

[0030] Figure 2This is a flowchart of another method for prompting a parking pause event provided in an embodiment of this application. This method can be applied to vehicles. Figure 2 As shown, the method may include:

[0031] Step 201: Respond to the pause event that triggers parking pause.

[0032] During automatic parking, upon receiving a parking pause command, the vehicle can respond to a pause event that triggers the parking pause. Optionally, the pause event may include one or more of the following events: an obstacle exists in the parking path (a); the driver's side door is open (b); any door other than the driver's side door is open (c); the hood is open (d); the trunk is open (e); the side mirrors are folded (f); the parking pause button is triggered (g); the brake pedal is depressed (h); the accelerator pedal is depressed (i); the driver's seatbelt is unbuckled (j).

[0033] Step 202: Determine the total number of paused events.

[0034] After the vehicle receives a pause event that triggers parking pause, the total number of pause events can be determined. If there is only one pause event, step 203 can be executed. If there are multiple pause events, step 204 can be executed.

[0035] Step 203: If there is only one pause event, then display a message indicating that one pause event.

[0036] If the vehicle determines that there is only one pause event, it can directly notify the vehicle of that pause event. Alternatively, the vehicle can issue a notification message for that pause event to prompt the vehicle to handle the pause event. This notification message can be text, image, illuminated, or audio, etc.

[0037] In this embodiment, the vehicle may be equipped with a display screen, through which the vehicle can display the prompt information. Optionally, the display screen may display the prompt information in a pop-up window manner. Alternatively, the vehicle may establish a communication connection with a terminal, and the vehicle may send the prompt information to the terminal so that the terminal displays the prompt information. Optionally, the terminal may display the prompt information in a pop-up window manner.

[0038] refer to Figure 3 If the pause event includes the presence of an obstacle in the parking path, the text message of the prompt message 01 can be "Parking paused: Obstacle detected, parking will continue after removal".

[0039] If the pause event includes any door being open, the text message for prompt 01 could be "Parking paused: Door open detected, will continue parking after closing." If the pause event includes the hood being open, the text message for prompt 01 could be "Parking paused: Hood open detected, will continue parking after closing." If the pause event includes the trunk being open, the text message for prompt 01 could be "Parking paused: Trunk open detected, will continue parking after closing."

[0040] If the pause event includes the rearview mirror being folded, the text message for prompt 01 could be "Parking Paused: Folded rearview mirror detected. Unfold and continue parking." If the pause event includes the parking pause button being triggered, the text message for prompt 01 could be "Parking Paused: Please click the 'Continue' button to continue parking." If the pause event includes the brake pedal being depressed, the text message for prompt 01 could be "Please release the brake and continue parking." If the pause event includes the accelerator pedal being depressed, the text message for prompt 01 could be "Please release the accelerator and continue parking."

[0041] Step 204: If there are multiple pause events, determine the region where the multiple pause events occur.

[0042] If multiple pause events are identified for a vehicle, the areas where these pause events occur can be determined. These areas can be either inside or outside the vehicle; the inside area indicates that the pause event occurred inside the vehicle, and the outside area indicates that the pause event occurred outside the vehicle.

[0043] In this application embodiment, the pause event in the vehicle interior area may include one or more of the following events: the driver's door of the vehicle is in an open state (b); the rearview mirror of the vehicle is in a folded state (f); the driver's seat belt is in a loose state (j); the brake pedal of the vehicle is in a depressed state (h); the accelerator pedal of the vehicle is in a depressed state (i); the parking pause button is triggered (g).

[0044] A parking event outside the vehicle can include one or more of the following: an obstacle is present in the parking path (a); any door other than the driver's door is open (c); the vehicle's hood is open (d); or the vehicle's trunk is open (e).

[0045] Understandably, if a pause event occurs inside the vehicle, it means that the event needs to be handled inside the vehicle; if the pause event occurs outside the vehicle, it means that the event needs to be handled outside the vehicle. For example, for a pause event inside the vehicle: the rearview mirrors are in a folded position, and the user needs to adjust the rearview mirror adjustment buttons inside the vehicle to switch the mirrors from the folded position to the open position. For a pause event outside the vehicle: there is an obstacle in the parking path, and the user needs to remove the obstacle outside the vehicle.

[0046] Step 205: If multiple pause events occur in different areas, then based on the vehicle's current parking mode, the pause events occurring in different areas will be displayed sequentially.

[0047] After determining the locations of multiple pause events, if the pause events occur in different areas, the vehicle can sequentially display notifications for the pause events occurring in different areas based on the vehicle's current parking mode. The parking mode can include either Auto Parking Assist (APA) or Remote Parking Assist (RPA). In APA mode, the driver is inside the vehicle; in RPA mode, the driver is outside the vehicle.

[0048] If the vehicle's parking mode is confirmed to include APA mode, then the driver is currently inside the vehicle. Therefore, pause events in the external area and the internal area can be displayed sequentially.

[0049] Understandably, since the driver needs to be inside the car in APA mode, and after handling the pause event, the driver eventually needs to return to the car to continue automatic parking, this prompting method allows the driver to first handle pause events in the area outside the car, and then return to the car to handle pause events in the area inside the car. This improves the efficiency of handling multiple pause events and provides a better user experience.

[0050] Furthermore, during the process of sequentially displaying pause events for different areas, the system can display pause events for another area after terminating the pause events in one area. Terminating the pause events in one area refers to processing all pause events in that area, meaning all pause events in that area have disappeared.

[0051] Optionally, during the process of sequentially prompting pause events in the external area and pause events in the internal area, the pause event in the external area can be prompted again after the pause event in the external area is terminated.

[0052] If the vehicle's parking mode is confirmed to include RPA mode, then the driver can be identified as being outside the vehicle. Therefore, pause events in the in-vehicle area and pause events in the out-of-vehicle area can be displayed sequentially.

[0053] Understandably, since the driver needs to be outside the vehicle in RPA mode, after handling the pause event, the driver eventually needs to return to the outside of the vehicle to continue remote parking. This prompting method allows the driver to first handle the pause events in the area inside the vehicle, and then handle the pause events in the area outside the vehicle. This improves the efficiency of handling multiple pause events and provides a better user experience.

[0054] Optionally, during the process of sequentially prompting pause events in the in-vehicle area and pause events in the out-of-vehicle area, the pause event in the in-vehicle area can be prompted again after the pause event in the in-vehicle area is terminated.

[0055] In this embodiment, there can be one or more pause events in the same area. If there are multiple pause events in the same area, the vehicle can sequentially prompt the multiple pause events in the same area according to their priority using a polling method. Specifically, the vehicle can poll and prompt one pause event every preset time interval, which can be 500 milliseconds (ms).

[0056] Optionally, the same area may include multiple sub-areas. The vehicle can determine the priority of multiple pause events in the same area based on the priority of the sub-areas where the locations of multiple pause events occur. The priority of a sub-area is proportional to its distance from the driver's seat. Furthermore, if there are multiple target pause events in the same sub-area, the priority of each target pause event is proportional to its distance from the driver's seat.

[0057] refer to Figure 4 The vehicle interior area may include one or more of the following: first vehicle interior sub-area A, second vehicle interior sub-area B, third vehicle interior sub-area C, and fourth vehicle interior sub-area D.

[0058] The pause event in the first vehicle interior sub-area A may at least include: the parking pause button being triggered (g). The pause event in the second vehicle interior sub-area B may at least include: the vehicle's brake pedal being depressed (h), and / or: the vehicle's accelerator pedal being depressed (i). The pause event in the third vehicle interior sub-area C may at least include: the vehicle's rearview mirrors being folded (f), and / or: the driver's seatbelt being unbuckled (j). The pause event in the fourth vehicle interior sub-area D may at least include: the vehicle's driver's door being open (b).

[0059] In this embodiment, the distances from the driver's seat to the first vehicle interior sub-region A, the second vehicle interior sub-region B, the third vehicle interior sub-region C, the fourth vehicle interior sub-region D, and the external vehicle region E, from farthest to closest, are as follows: external vehicle region E, fourth vehicle interior sub-region D, third vehicle interior sub-region C, second vehicle interior sub-region B, and first vehicle interior sub-region A.

[0060] Therefore, the priorities of the first vehicle interior sub-region A to the fourth vehicle interior sub-region D, from high to low, are as follows: fourth vehicle interior sub-region D, third vehicle interior sub-region C, second vehicle interior sub-region B, and first vehicle interior sub-region A.

[0061] Furthermore, since the accelerator pedal is farther from the driver's seat than the brake pedal, the priority of pause events in the second vehicle sub-area B, from highest to lowest, is as follows: the accelerator pedal is depressed (i), and the brake pedal is depressed (h).

[0062] Since the distance between the rearview mirror and the driver's seat is relatively large, and the distance between the seat belt and the driver's seat is relatively small, the priority of the pause event in the third vehicle sub-area C, from high to low, is as follows: the rearview mirror is in the folded state (f), and the driver's seat belt is in the unfastened state (j).

[0063] Since the obstacle is furthest from the driver's seat, followed by the trunk, then the hood, and the other doors are closest to the driver's seat, the priority of pause events in the external area E, from highest to lowest, is as follows: there is an obstacle in the parking path (a); the trunk is open (e); the hood is open (d); any door except the driver's door is open (c).

[0064] In APA mode, the priority of the external area and multiple internal sub-areas, from highest to lowest, is as follows: External area E > Fourth internal sub-area D > Third internal sub-area C > Second internal sub-area B > First internal sub-area A. Therefore, the priority of multiple pause events, from highest to lowest, is as follows: Obstacle exists in the parking path (a) > The vehicle's trunk is open (e) > The vehicle's hood is open (d) > Any door except the driver's door is open (c) > The vehicle's driver's door is open (b) > The vehicle's side mirrors are folded (f) > The driver's seatbelt is unfastened (j) > The vehicle's accelerator is depressed (i) > The vehicle's brake pedal is depressed (h) > The parking pause button is triggered (g).

[0065] In RPA mode, the priority of the external area and multiple internal sub-areas, from highest to lowest, is as follows: First internal sub-area A > Second internal sub-area B > Third internal sub-area C > Fourth internal sub-area D > External area E. Therefore, the priority of multiple pause events, from highest to lowest, is as follows: Parking pause button triggered (g) > Vehicle brake pedal depressed (h) > Vehicle accelerator depressed (i) > Driver's seatbelt unbuckled (j) > Vehicle rearview mirror folded (f) > Vehicle driver's door open (b) > Any door other than driver's door open (c) > Vehicle hood open (d) > Vehicle trunk open (e) > Obstacle exists in the parking path (a).

[0066] In this embodiment of the application, the vehicle can pre-store the priorities of multiple in-vehicle areas and multiple sub-areas under different parking modes, the priorities of multiple pause events occurring in each sub-area, and the priorities of multiple pause events under different modes.

[0067] For example, if there is one pause event in the in-vehicle area and multiple pause events in the out-of-vehicle area, and the current parking mode includes APA mode, the vehicle can first use a polling method to prompt multiple pause events in the out-of-vehicle area. After the user has processed the multiple pause events in the out-of-vehicle area, the vehicle will then prompt the pause events in the in-vehicle area, and continue parking after the user has processed the pause events in the in-vehicle area.

[0068] If there are multiple pause events in both the in-vehicle and out-of-vehicle areas, and the current parking mode includes APA mode, the vehicle can first use a polling method to prompt multiple pause events in the out-of-vehicle areas. After the user has processed the multiple pause events in the out-of-vehicle areas, the vehicle can then use a polling method to prompt multiple pause events in the in-vehicle areas, and so on, until the user has processed all the pause events in the in-vehicle areas before continuing to park.

[0069] If there are multiple pause events in the in-vehicle area and one pause event in the out-of-vehicle area, and the current parking mode includes RPA mode, the vehicle can first use a polling method to prompt multiple pause events in the in-vehicle area. After the user has processed the multiple pause events in the in-vehicle area, the vehicle will then prompt the pause event in the out-of-vehicle area, and continue parking after the user has processed the pause event in the out-of-vehicle area.

[0070] If there are multiple pause events in both the in-vehicle and out-of-vehicle areas, and the current parking mode includes RPA mode, the vehicle can first use a polling method to prompt multiple pause events in the in-vehicle area. After the user has processed the multiple pause events in the in-vehicle area, the vehicle can then use a polling method to prompt multiple pause events in the out-of-vehicle area, and so on, until the user has processed all the pause events in the out-of-vehicle area before continuing to park.

[0071] Step 206: If multiple pause events occur in the same area, then the multiple pause events will be prompted sequentially.

[0072] If the vehicle determines that multiple pause events occur in the same area, it can sequentially display these pause events. Optionally, the vehicle can display these pause events in a polling manner.

[0073] In this embodiment of the application, if the locations of multiple pause events are all outside the vehicle, the vehicle can sequentially prompt the multiple pause events according to their priority.

[0074] If multiple pause events occur within the vehicle's interior area, the vehicle can determine the priority of these pause events based on the priority of the sub-areas where they occur. Furthermore, if there are multiple target pause events within the same sub-area, the priority of each target pause event is proportional to its distance from the driver's seat. If multiple pause events occur outside the vehicle's interior area, the priority of each pause event is proportional to its distance from the driver's seat.

[0075] In summary, this application provides a method for notifying a parking pause event. In this method, the vehicle can respond to a pause event that triggers parking pause, and the pause event is notified based on the area where the pause event occurs. The area where the pause event occurs can include the interior or exterior of the vehicle. Because the pause event can be notified based on its location, the flexibility and efficiency of notifying pause events are improved.

[0076] This application provides a computer-readable storage medium storing a parking pause event notification program. When executed by a processor, the parking pause event notification program implements the parking pause event notification method described in the above embodiments, for example, implementing...

The notification module responds to a parking pause event that triggers the pause event and notifies the user of the pause event based on the location of the pause event. This location can be either inside or outside the vehicle. Because the notification can be based on the location of the pause event, the flexibility and efficiency of the pause event notification are improved.

[0083] Optionally, there may be multiple pause events, and the locations of these pause events may differ. The prompt module 602 is used for:

[0084] If the vehicle's current parking mode is Automatic Parking Assist (APA) mode, then pause events in the external area and the internal area will be displayed sequentially.
