[0048] The technical solution of this patent is further described in detail below in conjunction with specific implementation methods.

[0049] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a safety warning method for automatic driving of a vehicle, the method comprising the following steps:

[0050] Step S100, obtaining the surrounding environment information of the autonomous driving vehicle, and determining the urgency of the autonomous vehicle according to the surrounding environment information, wherein the surrounding environment information includes the type, position, speed, acceleration and moving direction of obstacles, the types of obstacles include vehicles, pedestrians, animals and other static objects, and the urgency of the autonomous vehicle measures the time when the autonomous vehicle is about to collide with other obstacles;

[0051] Step S200, obtaining the driver's state information within the current preset time period, and analyzing and determining the driver's current driving attention according to the driver's state information;

[0052] Step S300, generating a safety level according to the vehicle urgency and current driving attention, and executing a corresponding safety prompt instruction according to the safety level.

[0053] The embodiment of the present invention is a safety warning method that is activated only when the vehicle uses automatic driving. In this embodiment, the surrounding environment information of the automatic driving vehicle is first obtained to determine the urgency of the vehicle. On the basis of determining the urgency of the vehicle, the present invention further determines the driver's current driving attention, and then calculates the current safety level based on the driver's current driving attention and the urgency of the vehicle. Finally, it is determined whether to generate a safety prompt instruction based on the current safety level. This realizes the determination of whether to generate a safety prompt instruction based on the driver's actual driving state and the urgency of the vehicle. The present invention reduces unnecessary prompts on the basis of fitting the actual driving state, while ensuring driving safety.

[0054] like Figure 2 As shown, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the step of obtaining the surrounding environment information of the autonomous driving vehicle and determining the urgency of the autonomous vehicle according to the surrounding environment information includes:

[0055] Step S101, obtaining the surrounding environment information of the autonomous driving vehicle, and predicting the future trajectory of the obstacle based on the monitored surrounding environment information and a preset trajectory prediction model, wherein the surrounding environment information includes the type, position, speed, acceleration and moving direction of the obstacle, the types of obstacles include vehicles, pedestrians, animals and other static objects, and the urgency of the autonomous vehicle measures the time when the autonomous vehicle is about to collide with other obstacles;

[0056] Among them, the trajectory prediction model will adopt a variety of technologies, including but not limited to deep learning, machine learning, computer vision, and physical models. Some models will use LSTM (long short-term memory) networks to learn and predict the future trajectory of obstacles. This is the existing technology in this field and is not specifically described or limited in the present invention.

[0057] Step S102, determining the future trajectory of the vehicle according to the current vehicle status information and the navigation instruction of the automatic driving system, wherein the current vehicle status information includes the current vehicle position, speed, acceleration and moving direction;

[0058] Among them, the navigation instructions of the autonomous driving system will provide a historical preset planned route. According to the current vehicle status information and the historical preset planned route provided by the navigation instructions, the future trajectory of the vehicle can be further determined.

[0059] Step S103, comparing the future trajectory of the ego vehicle with the future trajectory of the obstacle, finding the closest point between them, and calculating the expected collision time between the ego vehicle and the obstacle according to the position and speed of the closest point;

[0060] Step S104, comparing the calculated estimated time required for collision with a preset urgency table to obtain the urgency of the vehicle, wherein the preset urgency table includes a number of paired urgency levels and corresponding time intervals required for collision. The smaller the estimated time required for collision, the greater the possibility of collision, and the higher the urgency of the vehicle.

[0061] In this embodiment, by predicting and comparing the future trajectory of the obstacle and the future trajectory of the vehicle, the estimated time required for the collision between the vehicle and the obstacle can be further determined, and the urgency of the vehicle can be further determined based on the estimated time required for the collision.

[0062] like Figure 3 As shown, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the step of obtaining the driver status information within the current preset time period and analyzing and determining the driver's current driving attention according to the driver status information includes:

[0063] Step S201, obtaining the driver status information within the current preset time period, wherein the driver status information includes hand status information and sight status information, and may also include physiological status information, wherein the hand status information includes whether the driver's hands are off the steering wheel, the sight status information refers to whether the time the driver's sight is focused on the road per unit time exceeds a preset time threshold, and the physiological status information refers to whether a physiological signal exceeds a preset signal threshold, and the physiological signal includes a breathing signal;

[0064] Among them, for the hand status information, that is, to determine whether the driver's hands are off the steering wheel, the hand-off detection function can be used. This function can be realized through a variety of sensor technologies, such as steering torque sensing technology, capacitive sensor measurement technology, pressure sensor technology, and camera image recognition technology. Steering torque sensing technology makes judgments by measuring the magnitude and direction of the torque applied by the driver on the steering wheel. Capacitive sensor measurement technology and pressure sensor technology determine whether the driver is holding the steering wheel by detecting changes in capacitance or pressure on the steering wheel. Camera image recognition technology determines whether the driver is holding the steering wheel by analyzing the captured image of the driver's hand.

[0065] The sight state information, that is, whether the time the driver looks at the road in a unit of time exceeds the preset time threshold, can usually be achieved through the DMS driver monitoring system. This system obtains the driver's eye state in real time by installing optical cameras and infrared cameras on the car, and then analyzes the acquired information through deep learning algorithms to determine the driver's sight state. Since the characteristics of infrared light can penetrate the lens, the blocked eye information can also be imaged normally, so this system can effectively solve the problem of reflection from the driver's glasses.

[0066] As for physiological status information, especially the acquisition of physiological signals such as breathing signals, millimeter wave radar technology can be used. By using millimeter wave radar sensors, human life parameters are detected by microwaves in the form of pulses. After demodulation, integration, amplification, filtering and other processing of the echo pulse sequence reflected by the human body, the data parameters of human existence can be obtained. The radar sensor can identify the heartbeat and breathing movements of the human chest and abdomen, and is suitable for detecting the driver's breathing signals in the car.

[0067] Step S202, traversing a preset driver attention table based on the driver status information, matching and obtaining attention values ​​corresponding to each status information in the driver status information, wherein the preset driver attention table includes a plurality of attention values ​​and status information corresponding thereto set in pairs;

[0068] Step S203: The sum of the attention values ​​of each state information in the driver state information is calculated to obtain the current driving attention.

[0069] In this embodiment, by acquiring the driver's status information through real-time monitoring, the driver's current driving attention can be further matched. The technical solution provided in the present invention fits the driver's actual driving status.

[0070] like Figure 4As shown, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the step of generating a safety degree according to the urgency of the vehicle and the current driving attention, and executing a corresponding safety prompt instruction according to the safety degree includes:

[0071] Step S301, calculating the ratio between the current driving attention and the urgency of the vehicle to obtain the safety degree, wherein the safety degree = current driving attention / urgency of the vehicle;

[0072] Step S302: when the safety level is not lower than the first preset threshold, no safety prompt instruction is generated;

[0073] Step S303, when the safety end is greater than the second preset threshold and less than the first preset threshold, matching and executing a first safety prompt instruction, wherein the first safety prompt instruction includes a voice prompt instruction, and reminding the driver to improve driving attention according to the voice prompt instruction;

[0074] Step S304, when the safety end is not higher than the second preset threshold, match and execute the second safety prompt instruction, the second safety prompt instruction includes a voice prompt instruction and a temperature reduction prompt instruction.

[0075] Among them, the method for determining the temperature reduction in the cooling prompt instruction is: obtaining the current position information of the vehicle, obtaining the weather information of the current position of the vehicle according to the current position information of the vehicle, the weather information including temperature information, when the temperature information in the weather information is not lower than the preset temperature threshold, lowering the air-conditioning temperature in the vehicle so that the air-conditioning temperature of the vehicle is adjusted to the first preset temperature; when the temperature information is lower than the preset temperature threshold, lowering the air-conditioning temperature in the vehicle so that the air-conditioning temperature of the vehicle is adjusted to the second preset temperature. In this embodiment, the safety prompt instruction can effectively increase the driver's attention to the road.

[0076] In this embodiment, it is further explained that the present invention calculates the current safety level based on the driver's current driving attention and the urgency of the vehicle, and finally determines whether to generate a safety prompt instruction based on the current safety level. This realizes the determination of whether to generate a safety prompt instruction based on the driver's actual driving status and the urgency of the vehicle, provides a flexible prompt mode, reduces unnecessary prompts based on the actual driving status, and ensures driving safety at the same time.
