[0056] It should be noted that the embodiments in the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict. The preferred embodiments of the present application will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.
[0057] The present application discloses a kind of underground garage multi-floor car searching method, as shown in Figure 1
[0058] S1, a garage information database is established, the garage information database includes floor numbers of each floor of the underground garage and height range intervals corresponding to the floor numbers one by one;
[0059] S2, in response to a change in the driving slope of the vehicle, the cloud server acquires height data of the vehicle from the parking-in position to the parking position;
[0060] S3, the acquired height data and the height range interval corresponding to each floor number are matched, and the floor number corresponding to the parking position of the vehicle is determined according to the matching result;
[0061] S4, in response to a vehicle search request of a user, the cloud server sends the floor number corresponding to the parking position of the vehicle to the user terminal.
[0062] Through the above-mentioned vehicle search method, the garage information database is established, when the driving slope of the vehicle changes on the ramp of the underground garage, the height data of the vehicle from the parking-in position to the parking position is acquired based on the cloud server, the height data and the height range interval in the garage information database are matched, and the floor number corresponding to the parking position of the vehicle is determined according to the matching result, the floor number determined by the cloud server and the user terminal is sent to the user terminal to prompt the user, so that on the basis of acquiring the horizontal position of the vehicle by GPS, the specific floor position of the vehicle in the vertical dimension can be acquired by the method of the application, so as to help the user accurately record and remind the floor where the parking position is located in the complex underground garage, so that the user can smoothly search for the vehicle when leaving, and avoid the difficulty in searching for the vehicle due to forgetting the parking floor.
[0063] Further, in response to a change in the driving slope of the vehicle, the method for acquiring the height data of the vehicle from the parking-in position to the parking position by the cloud server comprises:
[0064] In response to a change in the driving slope of the vehicle, a sensor is used to acquire driving parameters of the vehicle on the ramp of the underground garage, the driving parameters including the driving slope, the driving time and the average speed;
[0065] According to the acquired driving parameters, the cloud server calculates the height difference of the vehicle from the parking-in position to the parking position, and the calculation formula of the height difference is:
[0066] h = vtsinθ
[0067] In the formula, h represents the height difference of the vehicle from the parking-in position to the parking position, v represents the average speed of the vehicle on the ramp of the underground garage, t represents the driving time of the vehicle on the ramp of the underground garage, and θ represents the driving slope of the vehicle on the ramp of the underground garage.
[0068] By the above-mentioned vehicle searching method, the driving slope of the vehicle on the ramp of the underground garage is recorded by the angle sensor, and the driving time and average speed of the vehicle on the ramp of the underground garage are recorded by the acceleration sensor or the speed sensor. By obtaining the driving parameters, the height difference of the vehicle from the parking position to the garage position is calculated, and the specific floor where the vehicle is parked is calculated based on the height range interval where the height difference is located, thereby helping the user to accurately record and remind the floor where the parking position is located in the complex underground garage.
[0069] Further, in combination with Figure 2 As shown, the method for obtaining the driving parameters of the vehicle on the ramp of the underground garage by the sensor comprises:
[0070] recording the driving slope when the vehicle is normally driving;
[0071] in response to monitoring that the driving slope of the vehicle exceeds the slope threshold of normal driving, starting to record the driving time of the vehicle;
[0072] in response to monitoring that the driving slope of the vehicle reverts to below the slope threshold of normal driving, recording the driving slope and average speed of the vehicle within the current driving time.
[0073] By the above-mentioned vehicle searching method, since the driving process of the vehicle from the garage to the parking position mainly experiences the conversion of flat road-slope-flat road, only the driving slope, driving time and average speed of the vehicle during the downhill process need to be obtained to calculate the height difference of the vehicle from the parking position to the garage position. Therefore, the slope threshold of normal driving of the vehicle is set, the driving slope when the vehicle is normally driving is recorded in real time to monitor whether the vehicle is parking in real time, and until the driving slope of the vehicle exceeds the slope threshold of normal driving, it is judged that the vehicle starts to park, at which time the driving time of the vehicle and the driving slope of the vehicle on the ramp of the underground garage are recorded. At the same time, until the driving slope of the vehicle reverts to below the slope threshold of normal driving, it is judged that the vehicle has completely downhill and entered the garage, at which time the recording of the time is stopped, and the average speed is calculated according to the current driving time of the vehicle to obtain all the driving parameters of the vehicle during the downhill process, thereby providing accurate data for the height difference calculation of the vehicle from the parking position to the garage position.
[0074] Further, the method for obtaining the height data of the vehicle from the parking position to the garage position after the vehicle passes through multiple ramps of the underground garage comprises:
[0075] in response to monitoring that the driving slope of the vehicle exceeds the slope threshold of normal driving, and then reverts to below the slope threshold of normal driving after a driving time, recording that the vehicle passes through one ramp of the underground garage;
[0076] In response to the monitoring vehicle passing through multiple ramps in the underground parking garage in sequence, the height difference of the vehicle after traveling on each ramp is calculated based on the driving parameters obtained by the vehicle on each ramp.
[0077] Based on the height differences of the vehicle after traveling on each slope, calculate the multi-slope height difference from the vehicle's entry position to its parking position. The formula for calculating the multi-slope height difference is as follows:
[0078]
[0079] In the formula, This indicates the gradient height difference between the vehicle's entry point and parking position, v. i Let t represent the average speed of the vehicle on the i-th ramp of the underground parking garage. i θ represents the travel time of the vehicle on the i-th ramp in the underground parking garage. i This represents the gradient of the vehicle's travel on the i-th ramp of the underground parking garage.
[0080] With the above-described vehicle location method, in multi-level underground parking garages, where some floors are full, users need to park on a lower floor. In this case, the vehicle's journey involves multiple downhill sections, such as flat ground, downhill, flat ground, downhill, and flat ground. Therefore, by calculating the height difference of the vehicle on each slope and summing these differences, the multi-slope height difference from the entry point to the parking position can be obtained. This facilitates locating the specific floor the vehicle reaches after navigating multiple slopes from the entry point.
[0081] Furthermore, based on the acquired driving parameters, the cloud server calculates the height difference between the vehicle's entry position and parking position using the following methods:
[0082] The vehicle-mounted T-BOX collects driving parameters from sensors and packages these parameters into data packets, which are then transmitted to a cloud server for parsing and storage.
[0083] In response to the detection of a parked vehicle, the cloud server calculates the height difference between the vehicle's entry position and parking position based on the received driving parameters;
[0084] In response to the continuous collection of vehicle driving parameters on the underground parking garage ramp by sensors, the on-board T-BOX periodically sends updated data. The cloud server performs real-time updates and calculations based on the received updated data and stores the calculation results in the parking garage information database.
[0085] Through the setting of the above vehicle searching method, the driving parameters of the vehicle on the ramp of the underground garage can be accurately obtained, and the data is transmitted to the cloud server through the vehicle-mounted T-BOX for processing and calculation, so as to perform data analysis, monitoring and management, and finally obtain the height difference result of the vehicle during downhill process, so that these data can be used for vehicle performance evaluation, safety monitoring, intelligent driving and other application scenarios. The vehicle-mounted T-BOX plays the role of a bridge, transmitting sensor data inside the vehicle to an external system, realizing information interaction between the vehicle and the cloud server.
[0086] Further, the method further comprises:
[0087] Collecting light change data of multiple underground garages in a period of time, and extracting light change characteristics of the underground garages according to the collected multiple light change data;
[0088] Setting the cloud server to trigger the condition for multi-floor vehicle searching according to the extracted light change characteristics, and storing in the garage information database;
[0089] In response to the change of the vehicle driving slope, the vehicle obtains the surrounding light information through the light sensor, the cloud server matches the obtained light information with the trigger condition, and determines whether the vehicle enters the underground garage according to the matching result.
[0090] Through the setting of the above vehicle searching method, the light sensor is preferably installed on the vehicle, and it is ensured that it can accurately detect the surrounding light intensity. The light sensor can also be used to collect light change data of multiple underground garages in a period of time, analyze these data to extract light change characteristics in the underground garage, such as gradual change of light intensity, difference between day and night, etc. According to the light change characteristics of the underground garage, the trigger condition is set. For example, when the light intensity gradually weakens to a certain extent, it is considered that the vehicle enters the underground garage ramp. Only when the vehicle is on the underground garage ramp, the driving parameter acquisition and height difference calculation are triggered, and in other road conditions, such as elevated downhill road section, the input of the light sensor is ignored, thereby avoiding false positives and adapting to various driving scenarios.
[0091] Further, the method for the cloud server to match the obtained light information with the trigger condition and determine whether the vehicle enters the underground garage according to the matching result comprises:
[0092] When the light information and the trigger condition match, the cloud server determines that the vehicle enters the underground garage, and starts searching for the floor number corresponding to the vehicle position;
[0093] When the light information and the trigger condition do not match, the cloud server determines that the vehicle does not enter the underground garage.
[0094] Further, in response to the user's request for finding the vehicle, the method for the cloud server to send the floor number corresponding to the vehicle parking position to the user terminal comprises:
[0095] In response to the GPS acquiring the horizontal position information corresponding to the vehicle parking position, the cloud server stores the horizontal position information;
[0096] In response to the state instruction of the vehicle's power-off lock, the cloud server remotely transmits the floor number and horizontal position information corresponding to the vehicle parking position to the user's mobile phone App;
[0097] The mobile phone App receives the floor number and horizontal position information transmitted by the cloud server and stores them in the local database;
[0098] In response to the user's request for finding the vehicle, the mobile phone App retrieves the floor number and horizontal position information stored in the local database and displays the floor number and horizontal position information corresponding to the vehicle parking position on the interface.
[0099] Through the above-mentioned method for finding the vehicle, the user can remotely obtain the floor number and horizontal position information of the vehicle parking position through the mobile phone App, and can not only obtain the horizontal positioning information of the vehicle when finding the vehicle, but also can see the floor information of the vehicle at the same time, and can go to the specified floor to find the vehicle according to the information, thereby improving the convenience and efficiency of finding the vehicle. At the same time, the cloud server plays a key role in the whole process, which is responsible for processing user requests, querying vehicle position information and interacting with the mobile phone App, ensuring the real-time and accuracy of the floor information and providing a better experience for the user to find the vehicle.
[0100] Further, it also includes a method for synchronizing the floor number corresponding to the vehicle parking position to the vehicle-mounted central control screen:
[0101] Based on the vehicle-mounted IHU, the gear parking state signal of the vehicle is monitored, and the gear parking state signal is sent to the vehicle-mounted T-Box of the vehicle;
[0102] After the vehicle-mounted T-Box receives the gear parking state signal of the vehicle, it initiates a request for finding the vehicle to the cloud server;
[0103] In response to the request for finding the vehicle initiated by the vehicle-mounted T-Box, the cloud server remotely transmits the floor number corresponding to the vehicle parking position to the vehicle-mounted T-Box;
[0104] After the vehicle-mounted T-Box receives the floor number corresponding to the vehicle parking position, it transmits it to the vehicle-mounted central control screen of the vehicle for display.
[0105] Through the setting of the above-mentioned vehicle searching method, the vehicle and the cloud server interact through state instructions, the cloud server transmits the floor number to the vehicle-mounted central control screen, and the vehicle-mounted central control screen is responsible for displaying to the user, so that the user can obtain the specific floor position after parking, so as to accurately record and remind the user of the floor of the parking position before the user gets off, further helping the user to quickly locate the vehicle, and improving the convenience and efficiency of vehicle searching. At the same time, the cloud server can also be integrated with other systems, such as a parking lot management system, to obtain more accurate parking information.
[0106] Further, the method for establishing the garage information database comprises:
[0107] Statistical parameters of the height of a plurality of underground garages, and determine the maximum height value of a single floor of an underground garage from the statistical height parameters;
[0108] According to the maximum height value of a single floor of an underground garage, the height range interval of each floor of an underground garage is set in turn;
[0109] According to the floor corresponding to each height range interval, a unique floor number is established for each height range interval;
[0110] According to the height range interval and the corresponding floor number of each floor of an underground garage, a garage information database is established.
[0111] Through the setting of the above-mentioned vehicle searching method, according to the industry standard JGJ100-2015 "Garage Building Design Specification", the minimum net height of the entrance and ramp of a microcar and a small car is 2.2m, considering the pipeline installation space, beam height, soil thickness, roof thickness and other factors, the conventional height experience data of an underground garage is 3.5-4m, therefore, 4.5m is set as the maximum height value of a single floor of an underground garage, the height range interval of each floor of an underground garage is set, and a unique floor number is established for each height range interval. Assuming that the height difference between the vehicle from the garage position to the parking position is h, and the floor number is L, the corresponding relationship is as follows:
[0112] When h < 4.5m, L = "negative one floor"; When 4.5m < h < 9m, L = "negative two floors";
[0113] When 9m < h < 13.5m, L = "negative three floors";
[0114] When 13.5m < h < 18m, L = "negative four floors"; ……
[0115]
[0116] The underground garage multi-floor vehicle searching method of the present application establishes a garage information database, when the vehicle driving on the ramp of the underground garage changes the slope, the driving parameters including the driving slope, driving time and average speed are collected by the sensor, the height difference of the vehicle from the garage position to the parking position is calculated by the cloud server, and the calculated height difference and the height range interval in the garage information database are matched to determine the floor number corresponding to the vehicle parking position according to the matching result, the floor number determined by the vehicle parking position is sent to the user for prompting by the interaction of the cloud server and the mobile phone App end and the vehicle-mounted central control screen, so that on the basis of combining the GPS to obtain the horizontal position of the vehicle, the specific floor position of the vehicle in the vertical dimension can be obtained, thereby helping the user to accurately record and remind the floor where the parking place is located in the complex underground garage environment, so that the user can smoothly search for the vehicle when leaving, and avoid the difficulty in searching for the vehicle caused by forgetting the parking floor.
