[0002] With the increasing development of smart cockpit technology in new energy vehicles, the in-car acoustic experience has gradually become a key consideration for vehicle purchasers. Multiple passengers in a vehicle are a common scenario. In this scenario, changes in the number of passengers lead to changes in seating positions. To achieve the optimal sound field, the sound field position must be adjusted based on the number of passengers and seating positions. Music is an essential entertainment experience for users during vehicle use. The varying number of passengers and seating positions requires different sound field settings to ensure the best possible music experience for each user. How to adjust the sound field position based on the number of passengers and seating positions to achieve the optimal sound field effect is a pressing issue.

[0003] When adjusting the car's cabin sound field, setting the center of the sound field in the smart cockpit to the center of the cabin occupants can achieve better musical effects.

[0050] The purpose, features and advantages of this application will be further explained with reference to the accompanying drawings in conjunction with the embodiments. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0051] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely used to explain the technical solutions of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application.

[0052] In order to better understand the technical solution of the present application, a detailed description will be given below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0053] It should be noted that the execution subject of this embodiment may be a computing service device with data processing, network communication, and program execution capabilities, such as a tablet computer, personal computer, or mobile phone, or an electronic device capable of performing the aforementioned functions, such as a cabin sound field adjustment device. This embodiment and the following embodiments will be described below using a cabin sound field adjustment device as an example.

[0054] Based on this, the embodiment of the present application provides a method for adaptively adjusting the sound field of a car cabin, referring to Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a flow chart of the first embodiment of the method for adaptively adjusting the vehicle cabin sound field of the present application.

[0055] In this embodiment, the method for adaptively adjusting the vehicle cabin sound field includes steps S10 to S40:

[0056] Step S10, collecting driver seat occupancy signals and passenger seat occupancy signals;

[0057] It should be understood that a DMS (Driver Monitoring System) sensor is arranged in the driving position of the car cockpit. The DMS sensor can be used to detect the driver's seat occupancy status. When it recognizes that the driver has opened the front door, the DMS sensor will collect the driver's facial features. After confirming the recognition of the driver, it will send the driving seat occupancy signal to the IVI (In-Vehicle Infotainment) controller, that is, the cockpit domain controller; occupancy sensors are arranged in the seats in the non-driving positions of the car cockpit. When the occupancy sensor recognizes that a passenger is sitting down, it will send the passenger seat occupancy signal of the corresponding position to the cockpit domain controller.

[0058] It should be noted that the driver's seat occupancy signal and the passenger seat occupancy signal can also be collected through other perception sensors, including several sensors that can sense information about the occupancy of the driver and passengers, such as millimeter-wave radar, ultrasonic radar, camera device, sensors of the internal system of the monitored vehicle, etc. The data from these perception sensors needs to be able to be used to monitor the occupancy status or characteristics of the driver and passengers, which is the key to realizing the operation of the adaptive sound field adjustment function. Compared with the existing technical solutions, this solution collects the driver's seat occupancy signal and the passenger seat occupancy signal based on common perception sensors such as occupancy sensors and DMS sensors that are equipped on the smart car itself. It can obtain accurate occupancy information without developing a large voice model and maximize the functions of existing sensors, which reduces the R&D cost to a certain extent and can obtain higher returns.

[0059] Step S20, determining the vehicle cabin sound field position according to the driver seat occupancy signal and the passenger seat occupancy signal, and obtaining a sound field position determination result;

[0060] It should be understood that the car cabin space can be divided into five seating areas: the main driver area, the co-driver area, the front area, the rear area and the whole car area. Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a diagram of the seat area division of the vehicle cabin sound field adaptive adjustment method provided in Example 1 of this application. Figure 2 As shown, Area 2 is the driver's seat area, Area 1 is the passenger seat area, Areas 3, 4, and 5 are the rear seats, Areas 1 and 2 are the front seats, and Areas 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 are the entire vehicle area. Based on the driver's seat occupancy signal and passenger seat occupancy signal collected at a certain moment, the number of people seated in the vehicle cabin and their seat positions can be determined. The position of the vehicle cabin sound field can also be determined based on the number of people seated in the vehicle cabin and their seat positions.

[0061] In a feasible implementation, step S20 may include steps A11 to A13:

[0062] Step A11, determining whether there is anyone in the vehicle cabin based on the driver seat occupancy signal and the passenger seat occupancy signal, and obtaining a cabin occupancy status determination result;

[0063] It should be understood that when the driver's seat occupancy signal and the passenger seat occupancy signal collection results are obtained, it will be first determined whether there is someone in the car cabin based on the collected driver's seat occupancy signal and the passenger seat occupancy signal, and the cabin occupancy status judgment result will be obtained to determine whether the car cabin sound field position needs to be switched.

[0064] Step A12: When the cabin occupancy status judgment result is that there is someone in the cabin, determine the sound field position judgment result based on the driver seat occupancy signal and the passenger seat occupancy signal.

[0065] It should be understood that if any occupancy signal is collected at a certain moment, it will be determined that there is a person sitting in the car cabin at this time, and based on the collection results of the driver's seat occupancy signal and the passenger seat occupancy signal, it will be further determined to which position the sound field needs to be switched to obtain the sound field position judgment result.

[0066] In a specific implementation, if the driver's seat occupancy signal is collected by the DMS sensor and the passenger seat occupancy signal is collected by the occupancy sensor, the judgment logic for the sound field switching position can be: if there is no occupancy signal input from the occupancy sensor and only the DMS sensor has an occupancy signal input, it is judged that there is someone in the main driver's seat, and no one in the co-driver and back row, and the sound field position is switched to the main driver's seat; if there is a signal input from the co-driver's seat occupancy sensor and the DMS sensor also has a signal input, it is judged that there are people in both the main driver's seat and the co-driver's seat, and no one in the back row, and the sound field position is switched to the front row; if there is an occupancy signal input from the co-driver's seat occupancy sensor and the DMS sensor has no signal input, it is judged that there are people in the main driver's seat and the co-driver's seat, and no one in the back row, and the sound field position is switched to the front row; If there is a signal input, it is judged that only the front passenger seat is occupied, and the driver and rear seats are unoccupied, and the sound field position is switched to the front passenger seat; if the rear occupancy sensor has an occupancy signal input and the DMS sensor has no signal input, it is judged that there is someone in the back seat, and the driver and front passenger seats are unoccupied, and the sound field position is switched to the rear seat; if the rear occupancy sensor has an occupancy signal input and the DMS sensor has a signal input, it is judged that there are people in the driver and rear seats, and no one in the front passenger seat, and the sound field position is switched to the entire vehicle; if all occupancy sensors have occupancy signal input and the DMS sensor has a signal input, it is judged that the entire vehicle is occupied, and the sound field position is switched to the entire vehicle.

[0067] In a feasible implementation, step A12 may include steps B11 to B13:

[0068] Step B11, when the cabin occupancy status judgment result is that there is someone in the cabin, determining the seating information of the driver and passenger based on the driver seat occupancy signal and the passenger seat occupancy signal;

[0069] It should be understood that when it is determined that there is someone in the car cabin, the number of people sitting in the car cabin and their seating positions, that is, the seating information of the driver and passengers, can be determined based on the driver seat occupancy signal and the passenger seat occupancy signal.

[0070] Step B12: displaying a sound field focus determination interface to the corresponding driver or passenger based on the driver or passenger seating information, so that the driver or passenger can select whether to require sound field focus, and obtaining a sound field focus determination result;

[0071] It should be noted that not all seated passengers have the need for sound field focusing. In order to further determine the sound field focusing needs of the seated passengers, after the number of passengers and their seating positions in the car cabin are determined, the identified passengers can be prompted through the HMI (Human Machine Interface) to determine whether sound field focusing is required, that is, the sound field focusing determination interface is displayed to the passengers in the corresponding positions to take care of the listening needs of each seated passenger.

[0072] It should be understood that the sound field focus determination interface corresponds to the screen associated with the user's position. For passengers seated in the driver's seat, this will be done on the central control screen; for passengers seated in the passenger seat, this will be done on the central control screen or the passenger screen; and for passengers seated in the rear seat, this will be done on the rear screen. For models without a rear screen, the sound field focus requirements for each seat can be determined centrally on the central control screen to ensure the best possible listening experience for all seated passengers.

[0073] Step B13: determining the position of the vehicle cabin sound field based on the sound field focus determination result to obtain a sound field position determination result.

[0074] It should be noted that after receiving the sound field focusing determination result, the drivers and passengers who have sound field focusing requirements will be marked, and the seating position information of the marked drivers and passengers will be obtained. The sound field position judgment result will be determined based on their position information. The sound field position judgment result is the result optimized according to the driver and passenger's choice.

[0075] Step A13: When the cabin occupancy status judgment result is that there is no one in the cabin, obtain historical sound field position judgment results from the local end, and determine the sound field position judgment result from the historical sound field position judgment results.

[0076] It should be understood that if no occupancy signal is collected at a certain moment, it will be determined that no one is sitting in the car cabin at this time, and the historical sound field position judgment result will be obtained from the local end, that is, the car computer end, and the last sound field position judgment result will be obtained from the historical sound field position judgment result, and it will be used as the latest sound field position judgment result.

[0077] It should be noted that in the process of switching the sound field position, the cockpit domain controller not only needs to make logical judgments, but also needs to implement switch item settings and judge the switch status. This function is allowed in the vehicle settings item, allowing users to set the switch by themselves. The switch has a memory function, and the last setting will be loaded the next time you get in the car. Specifically, refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 This is a logical architecture diagram of the vehicle cabin sound field adaptive adjustment method provided in Example 1 of this application. Figure 3As shown in the figure, after determining the sound field position, the cockpit domain controller needs to remember the sound field position status at that moment until the next occupancy change occurs and the sound field position changes. When the cabin occupancy determination status changes from occupied to unoccupied, the sound field position in the cabin should be the sound field position status of the previous occupancy scenario remembered by the cockpit domain controller until the occupancy status changes again.

[0078] Step S30: adjusting the sound field focus position based on the sound field position judgment result.

[0079] It should be understood that after the sound field position judgment result is obtained, the corresponding sound field position signal will be sent to the actuator so that the actuator can adjust the sound field focus position according to the sound field position signal, so that the sound presents the best listening position in the cockpit. The process of adjusting the sound field focus position is to adjust and control the position, direction and distance of the sound in this space. The sound field is determined by acoustic factors such as the delay, amplitude, and phase of the sound. Different sound field focuses can adapt to the best sound quality experience in multiple positions. The actuator adjusts the position according to the current sound field focus position in the car based on the seat position information received in the car, so that all users in the car can get the best music experience.

[0080] It should be noted that the actuator includes but is not limited to a sound player, a power amplifier, a sound player and a power amplifier implemented together, etc. Among them, the sound player can be implemented by an audio device, and the power amplifier is used to adjust the volume of the sound played by the sound player.

[0081] In a feasible implementation manner, step S30 may include steps C11 to C12:

[0082] Step C11, setting the adaptive adjustment time interval;

[0083] It should be noted that the adaptive adjustment interval determines how long after adjusting the sound field focus position to reassess the cabin occupancy status. During the set adaptive adjustment interval, the sound field focus position will not be adjusted unless the driver or passenger actively adjusts the sound field adjustment parameters.

[0084] Step C12: When the operation of adjusting the sound field focus position based on the sound field position judgment result exceeds the adaptive adjustment time interval, return to the operation of collecting the driver seat occupancy signal and the passenger seat occupancy signal.

[0085] It should be understood that too frequent changes in the sound field will interfere with the normal use of the driver and passengers, especially when the driver and passengers need to keep the current sound field settings stable. Therefore, the adaptive adjustment time interval cannot be set too short to avoid responding to temporary changes in the occupancy status, such as the driver and passengers leaving their seats to pick up things or check the surrounding situation of the vehicle, which will affect the listening experience of the cabin users.

[0086] This embodiment provides a method for adaptively adjusting the car cabin sound field, which collects a driver's seat occupancy signal and a passenger seat occupancy signal, determines the car cabin sound field position based on the driver's seat occupancy signal and the passenger seat occupancy signal, obtains a sound field position judgment result, adjusts the sound field focus position based on the sound field position judgment result, identifies the number of people sitting in the cabin and their seat positions and determines the car cabin sound field position through the driver's seat occupancy signal and the passenger seat occupancy signal, adjusts the sound field focus position according to the car cabin sound field position, and intelligently switches the sound field effects. This method reduces the sound field and sound effect setting operation steps while ensuring that users obtain the best sound quality effects during the use of the car, thereby improving the user's driving experience.

[0087] Based on the first embodiment of the present application, in the second embodiment of the present application, the same or similar contents as those in the above embodiment 1 can be referred to the above introduction and will not be described in detail later. Figure 4 After step S30, the vehicle cabin sound field adaptive adjustment method further includes steps C21 to C23:

[0088] Step C21: Based on the sound field position determination result, a sound field adjustment mode selection interface is displayed to the user at the corresponding position and a preset voice is played to enable the user to set the sound field adjustment mode according to the user's needs;

[0089] It should be noted that in the process of adjusting the car cabin sound field, in addition to adjusting the sound field focus position, it also includes adjusting the volume, adjusting the sound field balance, adjusting the surround sound effect, etc. In order to meet the multi-faceted listening needs of the driver and passengers in the cabin, in addition to adjusting the sound field focus position based on the sound field position judgment results, the sound field adjustment mode selection interface will be automatically displayed on the user interface at the corresponding position based on the sound field position judgment results, and a preset voice prompt such as "Please select the sound field adjustment mode according to your needs" will be played to guide the user to the next step. The sound field adjustment mode selection interface provides different sound field adjustment options such as professional adjustment mode and scene adjustment mode.

[0090] Step C22: When a professional adjustment mode instruction is received, a sound field adjustment parameter setting interface is displayed to the user, so as to adjust the vehicle cabin sound field according to the parameters selected by the user;

[0091] It should be understood that when a user in a specific location selects Professional Adjustment Mode, the user will be presented with a sound field adjustment parameter setting interface, allowing them to adjust detailed sound field parameters such as volume, equalizer settings, and surround sound effects based on their personal preferences. Professional Adjustment Mode provides users with personalized sound field customization capabilities, meeting the specific sound quality needs of different users and improving user satisfaction and riding experience.

[0092] Step C23 , when a scene adjustment mode instruction is received, a simulation scene selection interface is displayed to the user to adjust the car cabin sound field according to the simulation scene selected by the user.

[0093] It should be understood that when a user in a corresponding location selects the professional adjustment mode, a simulation scene selection interface will be displayed to the user, providing a variety of preset scene simulation options, such as concerts, cinemas, and outdoor environments. The scene adjustment mode allows users to quickly select and switch sound field settings based on their preferred listening scene, providing a more immersive and realistic listening experience.

[0094] This embodiment provides users with clear operation guidance through interface display and voice prompts, allowing users to select the appropriate sound field adjustment mode according to their needs, and then customize the sound field effect according to their preferences and specific scenarios, to obtain a richer and more satisfying listening experience.

[0095] Based on the first embodiment of the present application, in the third embodiment of the present application, the same or similar contents as those in the above embodiment 1 can be referred to the above introduction and will not be described in detail later. Figure 5 After step S30, the vehicle cabin sound field adaptive adjustment method further includes steps C31 to C32:

[0096] Step C31, collecting vehicle status data and environmental noise data;

[0097] It's important to note that vehicle status data, including vehicle speed, engine speed, and air conditioning status, can generate ambient noise due to changes in this data. Specifically, excessive vehicle speed can increase wind and tire noise, high engine speeds can generate more mechanical noise, and running the air conditioner can also generate additional noise, altering the in-vehicle sound environment.

[0098] It should be understood that ambient noise data refers to various sound data generated by the vehicle's internal and external environments, which may interfere with the sound field effect within the cabin. Vehicle status data can be collected by the vehicle's built-in sensor, while ambient noise data can be collected by external microphones.

[0099] Step C32: adjusting the vehicle cabin sound field based on the vehicle status data and the ambient noise data.

[0100] It should be understood that collected vehicle status data and ambient noise data can be input into intelligent algorithms, allowing them to optimize sound field settings in real time based on the collected data. Intelligent sound field adjustment allows users to enjoy the best listening experience in different driving conditions and environments. For example, when driving at high speeds, the music volume can be automatically increased to overcome wind noise, or the sound field setting can be automatically adjusted to a more comfortable level when parked. Furthermore, frequency equalization can be adjusted specifically based on the characteristics of the ambient noise to improve sound quality.

[0101] In a feasible implementation, step C32 may include: identifying the noise type based on the vehicle status data and the ambient noise data; determining the vehicle noise reduction requirement based on the noise type; and adjusting the vehicle cabin sound field based on the vehicle noise reduction requirement.

[0102] It should be noted that by analyzing ambient noise data through signal processing techniques (such as Fourier transforms), characteristic noise parameters such as frequency, amplitude, and duration can be extracted. By inputting these characteristic noise parameters and vehicle status data into machine learning algorithms (such as support vector machines and neural networks), the noise type (e.g., traffic noise, wind noise, engine noise, air conditioning noise, etc.) can be determined. After determining the noise type, the current noise reduction requirements are assessed. Based on the determined noise reduction requirements, the vehicle cabin sound field is adjusted and cabin audio system parameters, such as volume and equalizer settings, are optimized. Specifically, if engine noise is identified, the bass of the vehicle audio system may need to be enhanced to mask the engine noise. Furthermore, advanced audio processing techniques such as dynamic range control or noise suppression can be used to process the input audio signal in real time, adjusting the audio compression ratio based on the noise level or applying noise cancellation algorithms to enhance the clarity and audibility of the music.

[0103] This embodiment achieves dynamic management of the vehicle cabin sound field through intelligent identification and adjustment. Based on real-time vehicle status and ambient noise data, it identifies noise types, assesses noise reduction needs, and automatically adjusts the sound field, providing drivers and passengers with the optimal auditory experience under various conditions and enhancing travel comfort.

[0104] It should be noted that the above examples are only used to understand the present application and do not constitute a limitation on the method for adaptively adjusting the car cabin sound field of the present application. More simple transformations based on this technical concept are all within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0105] This application also provides a vehicle cabin sound field adaptive adjustment device, please refer to Figure 6 , the automobile cabin sound field adaptive adjustment device includes:

[0106] A signal acquisition module 10 is used to collect driver seat occupancy signals and passenger seat occupancy signals;
