Description

Technical Field

[0039] The development of vehicle interior disinfection technology aims to provide a safer and more efficient disinfection method to prevent the spread of diseases and protect the health of drivers and passengers.

[0040] In related technologies, vehicles are typically equipped with disinfection devices, such as those with ultraviolet irradiation capabilities. These devices allow users to easily initiate the disinfection process to eliminate bacteria and viruses inside the vehicle. Simply turn on the disinfection device at the appropriate time and turn it off after the disinfection process is complete to restore normal vehicle use.

[0041] However, this method of relying on user memory to operate disinfection equipment has limitations. If users forget to disinfect their vehicles for an extended period, resulting in low disinfection frequency, the interior environment can become contaminated. The enclosed space of the vehicle is prone to the growth of bacteria and viruses, posing a threat to the health of the driver and passengers.

[0042] If a user neglects or forgets to turn off the disinfection equipment before unlocking the vehicle and entering, there is a risk of exposure to ultraviolet radiation. Conversely, if a user turns off the disinfection equipment prematurely due to a need to use the vehicle during the disinfection process, the disinfection effect will be poor. Therefore, to improve the safety and effectiveness of vehicle interior disinfection, it is crucial to address the issue of making the vehicle disinfection process intelligent and automated.

[0043] This application provides a vehicle-based control method that enables periodic automatic disinfection of vehicles when they meet preset disinfection conditions, ensuring the frequency and effectiveness of vehicle disinfection. Before disinfection begins, it ensures that there are no living organisms inside the vehicle. During the disinfection process, it monitors whether the vehicle is needed, and if so, it promptly shuts down the in-vehicle disinfection equipment to prevent ultraviolet radiation exposure to humans or other organisms, reducing safety hazards and improving the automation and intelligence of the vehicle disinfection process.

[0044] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of a vehicle-based control process provided in an exemplary embodiment of this application.

[0045] The control process mainly demonstrates how to disinfect the interior of the first vehicle 100, which is executed by the on-board terminal 110 inside the first vehicle 100.

[0046] The first vehicle 100 also includes a liveness detection device 120 and a disinfection device 130, which are connected to the vehicle terminal 110.

[0047] The number of liveness sensing devices 120 is multiple, and they are installed in multiple locations within the first vehicle 100, such as: the support pillars on both sides of the vehicle's windshield, the top of the vehicle, and the vehicle's trunk.

[0048] There are multiple disinfection devices 130, which are also installed in multiple locations within the first vehicle 100, such as: the trunk of the vehicle, under the driver's seat, under the rear seats, and at the bottom edge of the window and door panels.

[0049] The vehicle terminal 110 obtains vehicle status information and determines whether the first vehicle 100 is in a dormant state. For example, when in a dormant state, the vehicle status information of the first vehicle 100 is as follows: the door lock is closed, the vehicle trunk is closed, the vehicle has been off for a preset time, the vehicle's range has met the preset requirements, and the time since the last disinfection has met the preset time.

[0050] When the first vehicle 100 is in a dormant state, the vehicle terminal 110 controls the liveness detection device 120 to collect internal sensing information to determine whether there is a live body inside the first vehicle 100.

[0051] When the internal sensing information indicates that there are no living beings inside the first vehicle 100, it means that the first vehicle 100 meets the vehicle disinfection conditions, and the vehicle terminal 110 controls the disinfection equipment 130 to disinfect the interior of the first vehicle 100.

[0052] During the disinfection process performed by the disinfection device 130, the vehicle-mounted terminal 110 continues to acquire vehicle status information in real time and monitor whether the first vehicle 100 requires use. If the user requires use of the first vehicle 100, the disinfection device 130 immediately stops disinfection to avoid harm to the human body. For example, if the user opens the car door during disinfection, the vehicle-mounted terminal 110 immediately controls the disinfection device 130 to shut down.

[0053] After the disinfection device 130 completes a disinfection event, the vehicle terminal 110 generates a disinfection record. This record includes the execution time of the disinfection event and can serve as the basis for initiating the next disinfection event. For example, if the disinfection frequency for the first vehicle 100 is once every 3 months, and the date corresponding to this disinfection record is September 1st, then the next disinfection event will be initiated around December 1st.

[0054] Based on the above-described terminology and application scenarios, the vehicle-based control method provided in this application will be explained, taking the execution of the method by the on-board terminal of the first vehicle as an example. Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 This is a flowchart of a vehicle-based control method provided in an exemplary embodiment of this application. The method includes the following steps.

[0055] Step 210: Obtain vehicle status information.

[0056] Among them, the vehicle status information is used to indicate the operating status of the first vehicle.

[0057] Optionally, the door lock status information of the first vehicle is obtained. The door lock status information is used to indicate the current open / closed status of the door lock of the first vehicle and the duration of the open / closed status.

[0058] For example, the door lock of the first vehicle is in the closed state from the first moment, and the duration between the current moment and the first moment is the duration of the closed state.

[0059] Obtain the energy storage information of the first vehicle, which is used to indicate the driving range of the first vehicle.

[0060] When the first vehicle is an electric vehicle or a hybrid vehicle, the energy storage information of the first vehicle refers to the charge of the first vehicle's battery. The charge of the battery can reflect the range of the first vehicle, that is, the distance that the first vehicle can still drive.

[0061] When the first vehicle is a gasoline vehicle, the energy storage information of the first vehicle refers to the remaining fuel level of the first vehicle, which can reflect the mileage that the first vehicle can continue to travel by burning gasoline.

[0062] Obtain historical startup information of the disinfection equipment. This historical startup information is used to indicate the working status of the disinfection equipment within a historical time period.

[0063] After each disinfection event is performed by the disinfection equipment, the vehicle terminal generates a corresponding disinfection record. Each disinfection record includes the execution time and duration of the disinfection event.

[0064] For example, the historical time period refers to the time period between the moment when the disinfection equipment first performs a disinfection event and the current moment. The disinfection frequency is 6 months per complete disinfection event, and the disinfection duration corresponding to a complete disinfection event must reach 30 minutes.

[0065] The historical startup information of the disinfection equipment includes disinfection records for four disinfection events performed within the historical time period: 1. The first disinfection event was executed on January 1, 2023, with a disinfection duration of 30 minutes; 2. The second disinfection event was executed on July 1, 2023, with a disinfection duration of 23 minutes; 3. The third disinfection event was executed on July 2, 2023, with a disinfection duration of 30 minutes; 4. The fourth disinfection event was executed on January 1, 2024, with a disinfection duration of 30 minutes.

[0066] That is, the most recent disinfection event was carried out on January 1, 2024, and lasted for 30 minutes, which constitutes a complete disinfection event.

[0067] Vehicle status information is determined based on door lock status information, energy storage information, and historical startup information.

[0068] Optionally, in response to the door lock status information indicating that the door lock of the first vehicle is closed, the battery life of the first vehicle meets the preset battery life requirements, and the historical start information indicating that the duration between the first moment and the current moment when the disinfection device completes a disinfection event within a historical time period meets the preset start duration requirements, it is determined that the first vehicle is in a dormant state.

[0069] For example, the preset range requirement means that the first vehicle can still travel 6 kilometers with its current energy storage. When the first vehicle is an electric vehicle or a hybrid vehicle, the preset range requirement means that the battery charge reaches 0.2 kWh; when the first vehicle is a gasoline vehicle, the preset range requirement means that the remaining fuel volume reaches 0.5 liters.

[0070] The first moment of completing a disinfection event within a historical time period refers to the moment when the most recent complete disinfection event was completed. For example, the first moment refers to the execution time of the fourth disinfection event in the above example, January 1, 2024.

[0071] When the door lock status information, energy storage information, and historical startup information all meet the above requirements, the first vehicle is determined to be in a dormant state. The dormant state indicates that the first vehicle meets the prerequisites for disinfection.

[0072] If any of the door lock status information, energy storage information, or historical startup information fails to meet the above requirements, the first vehicle is determined to be in a disinfection and cooling state. The disinfection and cooling state indicates that the first vehicle does not meet the prerequisites for disinfection and the disinfection equipment cannot be controlled to disinfect the first vehicle.

[0073] Step 220: When the vehicle status information indicates that the first vehicle is in a dormant state, acquire the internal perception information of the first vehicle.

[0074] Among them, the internal sensing information is used to indicate the presence of living beings inside the first vehicle, including organisms with life characteristics.

[0075] Optionally, the type of living being indicated by the internal sensing information includes, but is not limited to, at least one of the following.

[0076] 1. Animals whose volume reaches the preset volume requirement (e.g., volume reaches 9 cubic centimeters), such as: (1) Mammals: humans, dogs, cats, etc.; (2) Birds: parrots, sparrows; (3) Reptiles: lizards, turtles, etc.; (4) Fish: such as goldfish, ornamental fish, etc.

[0077] 2. Plants that meet the preset volume requirements (e.g., 9 cubic centimeters), such as potted plants.

[0078] Since the internal sensing information is used to identify whether there are living organisms inside the first vehicle in order to avoid harming the living organisms during the disinfection of the first vehicle, and the purpose is to improve the safety of the vehicle disinfection process, small living organisms, such as small insects and microorganisms (bacteria, etc.), are not included in the scope of living organisms defined in this embodiment.

[0079] The first vehicle contains at least one vehicle sensing device, which can detect the presence of a living being inside the first vehicle and generate internal sensing information. The on-board terminal then determines whether a living being exists inside the first vehicle based on the internal sensing information.

[0080] Optionally, the vehicle sensing device inside the first vehicle is controlled to transmit a first signal in at least one designated direction.

[0081] The first signal includes at least one of wireless signal, electromagnetic wave signal and infrared signal.

[0082] For example, the vehicle sensing device receives a reflected signal corresponding to the first signal. The reflected signal is the signal reflected by an obstacle inside the vehicle when the first signal propagates inside the vehicle. The internal sensing information is obtained based on the signal characteristics of the reflected signal.

[0083] The signal waveform responding to the reflected signal meets the preset amplitude and phase detection requirements, thus determining that there is no living body inside the first vehicle based on the internal sensing information.

[0084] For example, the types of vehicle sensing devices and the corresponding liveness detection methods include, but are not limited to, at least one of the following.

[0085] (1) The vehicle sensing device is a millimeter-wave radar: The millimeter-wave radar transmits electromagnetic wave signals and receives the reflected signals, and determines whether the target that reflects the signal is a living body based on the reflected signals.

[0086] In liveness detection, millimeter-wave radar utilizes subtle human movements (such as breathing and heartbeat) as identification features. These movements manifest as weak frequency changes in radar signals. Signal processing algorithms extract these features to determine whether the target is alive. For example, frequency-modulated continuous wave radar systems can measure the distance, angle, and velocity of a target object and detect vital signs, such as respiratory rate and heart rate, by analyzing phase changes in the reflected signal.

[0087] (2) The vehicle sensing device is a Wi-Fi access point (e.g., a router): The router acts as a signal source, transmitting wireless signals and receiving reflected signals. The reflected signals can be signals reflected by other devices inside the first vehicle.

[0088] Among them, changes in the reflected signal can be used to monitor changes in the environment. When a living body moves inside the vehicle, it will cause changes in the wireless signal and the reflected signal. The presence of a living body can be indirectly inferred by the changes in the signal.

[0089] (3) The vehicle sensing device is UWB (Ultra Wide Band) radar: UWB radar transmits UWB pulse signals and receives the echoes reflected by obstacles. It determines whether there are living beings near the UWB radar by analyzing the echo disturbances. UWB radar can detect minute breathing movements and human activities, such as walking or slight body swaying.

[0090] (4) Vehicle sensing equipment is infrared equipment: Infrared equipment works by emitting infrared signals (infrared light) and capturing the reflected signals (infrared light). In liveness detection, infrared equipment can use the difference between human body temperature and the surrounding environment to identify a living person. For example, infrared equipment refers to an infrared thermal imager, which can detect the thermal radiation emitted by the human body to determine whether a living person is present.

[0091] Optionally, the first vehicle also includes a camera assembly and an audio acquisition assembly. The camera assembly is used to acquire images of the interior of the first vehicle to obtain perceived images; the audio acquisition assembly is used to acquire sounds of the interior of the first vehicle to obtain perceived audio. Internal perceived information is determined by using the real-time acquired perceived images and perceived audio.

[0092] For example, the vehicle terminal contains a pre-trained liveness detection model, which can analyze the input data and output the liveness detection results as internal perception information.

[0093] For example, by inputting the perceived image captured by the camera component into the liveness detection model, the model can analyze whether the perceived image contains a live body, and if so, the type of live body.

[0094] For example, the perceived audio collected by the audio acquisition component is input into the liveness detection model. The model can analyze whether the perceived audio contains the sound emitted by a live body, and when the perceived audio contains the sound emitted by a live body, it determines the liveness type based on the sound characteristics.

[0095] For example, image features of the perceived image can also be analyzed based on methods such as texture analysis, motion detection, and infrared imaging to determine whether at least one of the following features exists in the perceived image: micro-expressions and micro-movements such as skin texture, blood flow, and blinking of an organism.

[0096] For example, the perceived audio can also be analyzed based on technologies such as voiceprint recognition to determine whether at least one of the following features exists in the perceived audio: voiceprint, natural rhythm and intensity changes of speech, etc., in order to identify whether the speaker is a living person.

[0097] In some embodiments, the perceived image and perceived audio can be analyzed simultaneously to obtain internal perception information, thereby determining whether a living being exists inside the first vehicle and improving the accuracy of the internal perception information. The vehicle perception devices and corresponding liveness detection methods listed above can be used in combination to improve the accuracy of the internal perception information and avoid situations where a living being exists inside the vehicle but is not detected due to low accuracy of the internal perception information.

[0098] Step 230: If the internal sensing information indicates that there are no living beings inside the first vehicle, control the disinfection equipment inside the first vehicle to disinfect the interior of the first vehicle.

[0099] Optionally, the number of disinfection devices in the first vehicle is multiple, and they are installed in multiple locations in the first vehicle, such as: the trunk of the vehicle, under the driver's seat, under the rear seats, and at the lower edge of the window and door panels.

[0100] The types of disinfection equipment and the corresponding disinfection methods include, but are not limited to, the following.

[0101] 1. Chemical disinfection equipment: The chemical disinfection equipment is filled with chemical disinfectant / disinfectant solution, and disinfection is achieved by automatically spraying the liquid in the equipment onto the surface of the equipment inside the first vehicle.

[0102] 2. Ozone disinfection equipment: Ozone disinfection equipment generates ozone, which is then circulated through the air or directly sprayed into the interior space of the first vehicle to achieve disinfection.

[0103] 3. Ion disinfection equipment: It purifies the air by releasing negative ions or plasma, which can reduce bacteria and viruses in the air and improve the air quality inside the car.

[0104] 4. Photocatalytic disinfection equipment: A solution containing photocatalytic materials is sprayed onto the interior surface of the first vehicle. The photocatalytic materials generate oxidation under light to decompose harmful substances and microorganisms in the vehicle.

[0105] 5. Steam sterilization equipment: This method generates high-temperature steam to disinfect the vehicle interior, effectively killing bacteria and viruses. It is suitable for deep cleaning, but the process is complex and may pose a risk of damage to electronic equipment inside the vehicle.

[0106] 6. Activated carbon disinfection equipment: Place activated carbon packets inside the first vehicle. Through the adsorption capacity of activated carbon, harmful substances and odors in the vehicle are adsorbed, thus improving the air quality inside the vehicle.

[0107] 7. Ultraviolet (UV) disinfection equipment: This equipment uses fixed or mobile UV lamps to irradiate the interior of the vehicle. UV rays can destroy the structure of microorganisms, thus achieving a disinfection effect. However, direct exposure to human bodies should be avoided when using UV disinfection equipment.

[0108] During the disinfection of the interior of the first vehicle, the vehicle status information is updated in real time. That is, the vehicle terminal obtains the vehicle status information in real time based on a preset frequency (e.g., once every 5 seconds), and updates it in a timely manner when the vehicle status information changes, so as to monitor whether the first vehicle has a need for use.

[0109] Optionally, in response to the updated vehicle status information not meeting the preset disinfection conditions, the disinfection of the first vehicle is stopped.

[0110] The updated vehicle status information not meeting the preset disinfection conditions means that the updated vehicle status information indicates that the first vehicle is not in a dormant state at this time.

[0111] For example, when the vehicle status information does not meet the preset disinfection conditions, it includes at least one of the following situations: (1) the door lock status information indicates that the door lock of the first vehicle is in the open state, or the door lock of the first vehicle is pulled so that it is about to be opened; (2) the range of the first vehicle does not meet the preset range requirement; (3) the historical start information indicates that the duration between the first moment of the disinfection device completing a disinfection event within the historical time period and the current moment does not meet the preset start duration requirement. For example, if the duration of this disinfection event has reached the preset duration requirement (30 minutes), then a record corresponding to this disinfection event will be added to the historical start information, and the first moment will be updated to the moment when this disinfection event is completed.

[0112] If any item in the updated vehicle status information does not meet the preset disinfection conditions, the disinfection of the first vehicle will be stopped.

[0113] If the disinfection event is interrupted during execution, a disinfection interruption record is generated, which includes the second moment when the disinfection equipment stops disinfecting the first vehicle.

[0114] At the third moment, when the time elapsed since the second moment reaches the restart time threshold, the vehicle status information at the third moment is obtained. The vehicle status information at the third moment is used to indicate that the first vehicle should be disinfected again if the preset disinfection conditions are met. The third moment is a moment after the second moment.

[0115] For example, if the disinfection event of the first vehicle is interrupted, it will be re-executed 24 hours after the interruption. Before re-executing the disinfection event, it is still necessary to determine whether the preset disinfection conditions are met by obtaining vehicle status information and internal sensing information.

[0116] The disinfection event started at 10:00:00 on July 1, 2024, and was interrupted after 20 minutes, which was less than the duration of a complete disinfection event (30 minutes). The second time was 10:20:00 on July 1, 2024.

[0117] At the third moment after 24 hours, at 10:20:00 on July 2, 2024, the vehicle terminal will re-acquire the vehicle status information to determine whether the first vehicle is in a dormant state at the third moment.

[0118] If the first vehicle is in a dormant state at the third moment, the vehicle's sensing devices are controlled to collect internal sensing information to determine whether there is a living being inside the first vehicle. If there is no living being, the disinfection event is re-executed to disinfect the interior of the first vehicle; if there is a living being, the disinfection event is canceled, and the vehicle status information and internal sensing information are re-acquired at the fourth moment after the third moment, until the first vehicle is in a dormant state and there is no living being inside the first vehicle, at which point a complete disinfection event is executed.

[0119] In other words, if the frequency of disinfection events meets the requirements, and the disinfection event is interrupted during execution, the vehicle terminal will continue to look for a moment that meets the disinfection conditions to control the disinfection equipment inside the first vehicle to execute the disinfection event.

[0120] In some embodiments, in order to avoid frequent interruptions and delays in the disinfection event, which would affect the disinfection effect of the first vehicle, the user can pre-set the disinfection mode during the disinfection event execution process. Under different modes, the vehicle terminal will respond differently to the vehicle's usage needs.

[0121] Optionally, before controlling the disinfection equipment to execute a disinfection event, in response to receiving a disinfection mode setting operation, disinfection mode information is obtained. This disinfection mode information indicates the operating mode for the first vehicle during disinfection. The disinfection mode information includes a first mode and a second mode. In the first mode, the disinfection event is not interrupted. In the second mode, the disinfection event is interrupted at any time based on the vehicle usage signal.

[0122] In some embodiments, if the user has not set the disinfection mode in advance, the vehicle terminal may randomly set either the first mode or the second mode as the default disinfection mode.

[0123] Optionally, in the first mode, in response to receiving a vehicle use signal, countdown information is fed back based on the vehicle use signal, and the countdown information is used to indicate the remaining time required to complete the disinfection event.

[0124] The vehicle use signal is used to indicate that the first vehicle is switching from a dormant state to another state. The vehicle use signal can be a signal sent by the user of the first vehicle through other terminal devices (e.g., a terminal that has established a binding relationship with the first vehicle and can remotely control the first vehicle); the vehicle use signal can also be determined by the vehicle terminal based on information sent by other devices inside the vehicle. For example, vehicle status information is obtained by the vehicle terminal by receiving information sent by various devices inside the vehicle. When the information received by the vehicle terminal does not meet the preset disinfection requirements, it can be regarded as the first vehicle receiving the vehicle use signal; the vehicle use signal can also be a signal generated by a user who is close to the first vehicle by touching / triggering the first vehicle. This embodiment does not limit this.

[0125] For example, the situations in which a vehicle use signal is received include, but are not limited to, the following: (1) receiving an unlock signal for the first vehicle, the unlock signal being used to instruct the opening of the first vehicle's doors, windows, trunk, etc.; (2) the first vehicle's range is insufficient to support the control of the disinfection equipment to disinfect the first vehicle, such as the first vehicle being an electric vehicle, or the first vehicle's battery having a charge level lower than the minimum charge requirement (0.2 kWh), etc.

[0126] Optionally, the vehicle terminal can provide countdown information in the following ways: (1) The first vehicle is equipped with a display screen, which displays countdown information, such as: countdown 10 minutes; (2) If the vehicle signal is sent by the user to the vehicle terminal through the first terminal, a feedback signal is sent to the first terminal. The feedback signal can be displayed in the first terminal in the form of text, video, audio, vibration sound effects, etc.; (3) Control the device inside the first vehicle that can play audio to play countdown audio, such as: play the following audio "Vehicle is being disinfected, please do not approach"; (4) Control the lighting device inside the first vehicle to emit light prompts, such as: flashing lights.

[0127] Optionally, in the second mode, disinfection of the first vehicle is stopped in response to receiving a vehicle use signal. That is, in the second mode, the disinfection event can be interrupted at any time to ensure that the disinfection equipment will not harm any living organisms that are about to approach when disinfecting the interior of the first vehicle, and also to avoid the disinfection event affecting the daily use of the first vehicle.

[0128] In some embodiments, when internal sensing information indicates the presence of a living being in the first vehicle, the location of the living being in the first vehicle can be further determined based on internal sensing information collected by multiple vehicle sensing devices.

[0129] Based on the location of the living organism inside the first vehicle and the locations of multiple disinfection devices inside the first vehicle, a target disinfection device that meets the disinfection location conditions is determined, and the target disinfection device is controlled to disinfect the interior of the first vehicle.

[0130] Optionally, if the internal sensing information indicates that there is a living person inside the first vehicle and the living person is located inside the first vehicle, and there is a target disinfection device inside the first vehicle whose position meets the preset disinfection location conditions, the target disinfection device is controlled to disinfect the interior of the first vehicle.

[0131] Among them, meeting the disinfection location conditions means that the disinfection range of the disinfection equipment does not overlap with the location of the live body inside the first vehicle. In this case, starting the target disinfection equipment to disinfect the interior of the first vehicle will not cause harm to the live body.

[0132] For example, internal sensing information indicates the presence of a living being in the driver's seat of a first vehicle. The first vehicle contains four disinfection devices, wherein disinfection device A is located under the driver's seat, disinfection device B is located under the passenger seat, disinfection device C is located on the top of the first vehicle, and disinfection device D is located in the trunk of the vehicle.

[0133] When the disinfection equipment is performing disinfection, the disinfection range of disinfection equipment A, B, and C overlaps with the driver's seat area, while the disinfection range of disinfection equipment D does not overlap with the driver's seat area. Therefore, disinfection equipment D is designated as the target disinfection equipment. In summary, the vehicle-based control method provided in this application can determine whether a first vehicle meets the prerequisites for disinfecting its interior based on vehicle status information. When the first vehicle is in a dormant state and there are no living organisms inside, disinfection is performed on the interior of the first vehicle. This automates and intelligently manages the vehicle disinfection process, avoiding harm to humans or other organisms during disinfection and reducing safety hazards.
