If there is a description of "first" or "second", it is only used for the purpose of distinguishing the technical features, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying the relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features or implicitly indicating the order of the indicated technical features.

[0027] In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise clearly defined, terms such as setting, installing, connecting, etc. should be understood in a broad sense, and technicians in the relevant technical field can reasonably determine the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention based on the specific content of the technical solution.

[0028] Reference Figure 1 The first aspect of the present invention provides a control panel lighting adjustment method, which is applied to a vehicle and includes but is not limited to the following steps: Step S100, obtaining the driving speed of the current vehicle and the driving information of the vehicle ahead. A speed sensor may be installed on the current vehicle to detect the driving speed of the current vehicle, and a forward radar or camera sensor may be installed on the current vehicle to detect and obtain the driving information of the vehicle ahead.

[0029] Step S200, determining the change value of the following distance according to the driving speed and the driving information. The driving speed and the driving information can be used to determine the change in the relative distance between the current vehicle and the vehicle ahead at the current relative distance, that is, the change value of the following distance, so as to better determine the safety of following the vehicle.

[0030] Step S300, obtaining a preset safety threshold. Before debugging or driving the vehicle, a preset safety threshold for determining whether the following vehicle state is safe is preset and used for comparison with the following vehicle distance change value.

[0031] Step S400, determine whether the preset safety threshold is greater than the following distance change value. Determine whether the following state is safe based on the following distance change value. When the relative distance change trend becomes smaller, the safety of following the car gradually decreases, and when the relative distance change trend becomes larger, the safety of following the car gradually increases, thereby controlling the control panel lights to respond according to the safety of following the car.

[0032] When the preset safety threshold is greater than the following distance change value, the process proceeds to step S500, where the following state is determined to be an unsafe state, and the control panel lights are controlled to adjust the display state according to the following distance change value. The distance to the front vehicle within the following distance change value can be simply compared with the safety distance within the preset safety threshold to determine whether the following state is safe. For example, when the distance to the front vehicle within the following distance change value is greater than the safety distance within the preset safety threshold, the following state is determined to be a safe state. In order to make a more accurate judgment and division, the following distance change value determined by the relative speed and the distance to the vehicle in front includes information on the distance to the vehicle in front and the relative speed. Similarly, the preset safety threshold also includes the definition of the distance to the vehicle in front and the definition of the relative speed. When comparing the preset safety threshold with the following distance change value, it is necessary to compare whether the distance to the vehicle in front within the following distance change value is within the safety distance of the preset safety threshold. It is also necessary to determine whether the relative speed within the following distance change value is within the safety speed of the preset safety threshold. The display status of the control panel lights is different depending on the safety of following vehicles. When the safety of following vehicles is high, the control panel lights tend to be more in a normal display state. When the safety of following vehicles is low, the control panel lights can give real-time light prompts to assist in warning the driver. For example, if the distance to the vehicle in front within the following distance change value is greater than the safety distance of the preset safety threshold, then the following status is judged to be a safe status regardless of whether the relative speed within the following distance change value is within the safety speed of the preset safety threshold; if the distance to the vehicle in front within the following distance change value is less than or equal to the safety distance of the preset safety threshold, and the relative speed within the following distance change value is less than or equal to the safety speed of the preset safety threshold, then the following status is an unsafe status at this time, and the control panel lights need to be displayed for feedback; if the distance to the vehicle in front within the following distance change value is less than or equal to the safety distance of the preset safety threshold, and the relative speed within the following distance change value is greater than the safety speed of the preset safety threshold, then the following status is an unsafe status at this time, and the control panel lights need to be displayed for stronger feedback.

[0033] From the above, it can be seen that when the vehicle is driving, the driving speed of the current vehicle and the driving information of the vehicle in front are obtained to determine whether the following status of the current vehicle is safe. When the following status is unsafe, the lights on the control panel are adjusted according to the driving information to display different states. In this way, the driver can judge the following safety status through the lights on the control panel, especially the sudden braking of the vehicle in front, which can be identified more quickly and accurately, thereby improving driving safety. It also enriches the use functions of the lights on the control panel and improves the convenience and experience of driving.

[0034] To obtain driving information of the vehicle in front, a radar and a camera can be installed on the vehicle. The radar and the camera can be used for joint detection to improve the accuracy of data acquisition. The driving information obtained by the radar is multiplied by a weight coefficient, and the driving information obtained by the camera sensor is multiplied by another weight coefficient. The two products are added together to obtain the accurate driving information of the vehicle in front, and the sum of the two weight coefficients is 1.

[0035] In step S100, the driving information includes the speed of the preceding vehicle and the preceding vehicle distance formed between the current vehicle and the preceding vehicle. Acquiring the driving information of the preceding vehicle includes but is not limited to the following steps: Step S110, the radar sensor on the current vehicle detects the first speed of the vehicle ahead and the first distance between the current vehicle and the vehicle ahead. The radar sensor on the current vehicle can detect the first speed and the first distance, the first speed corresponds to the speed of the vehicle ahead, and the first distance corresponds to the distance of the vehicle ahead. In order to improve the accuracy of the measurement, the data obtained by the radar sensor detection needs to be subsequently weighted.

[0036] Step S120, the camera on the current vehicle detects the second speed of the vehicle in front and the second distance between the current vehicle and the vehicle in front. Similarly, the camera on the current vehicle can detect the second speed and the second distance, the second speed corresponds to the speed of the vehicle in front, and the second distance corresponds to the distance of the vehicle in front. In order to improve the accuracy of the measurement, the data obtained by the camera detection needs to be subsequently weighted.

[0037] Step S130, the weighted calculation of the first speed and the second speed is used to obtain the speed of the vehicle in front, and the weighted calculation of the first distance and the second distance is used to obtain the distance of the vehicle in front. After receiving the data fed back by the radar and the camera of the vehicle in front, more accurate speed and distance of the vehicle in front can be obtained through weighted calculation. In practical applications, the weighted coefficients of the first speed and the second speed can be 0.5 respectively, and the first speed and the second speed are multiplied by 0.5, and the sum of the two products is calculated to obtain the speed of the vehicle in front; similarly, the weighted coefficients of the first distance and the second distance can be 0.5 respectively, and the first distance and the second distance are multiplied by 0.5, and the sum of the two products is calculated to obtain the distance of the vehicle in front.

[0038] In step S200, the following distance change value is determined according to the driving speed and driving information, including but not limited to the following steps: Step S210, the relative speed is calculated based on the driving speed and the speed of the preceding vehicle. The driving speed of the current vehicle is subtracted from the speed of the preceding vehicle to determine whether the two vehicles are approaching or moving away.

[0039] Step S220, determining the change value of the following distance according to the relative speed and the distance to the front vehicle. If the current vehicle is far away from the front vehicle, even if the current vehicle is rapidly approaching the front vehicle, if the set safety distance is met, the safety of following the vehicle is still high, and the change value of the following distance obtained at this time is still getting closer at a safe following distance; if the current vehicle is close to the front vehicle, the current vehicle and the front vehicle keep the same speed or move away from the front vehicle, and the following distance at this time remains unchanged or tends to get farther; if the current vehicle is close to the front vehicle, the current vehicle's driving speed is higher than the speed of the front vehicle, and the two gradually get closer, and the following distance tends to get smaller.

[0040] In step S500, there are many ways to control the control panel lights to adjust the display state according to the change value of the following distance, such as Figure 2 As shown, for example, adjusting the color change of the control panel light, adjusting the obvious change of the control panel panel, adjusting the on-time of the control panel light, etc. For example, in embodiment 1, the color change adjustment of the control panel light includes but is not limited to the following steps: Step S511, obtaining a preset light color change model. In the light color change model, the light color of the control panel can be adjusted according to different following vehicle states, so as to facilitate the driver to intuitively distinguish.

[0041] Step S512, input the following distance change value into the light color change model to obtain the light color change strategy. Different value intervals are set in the light color change model, and different light color change strategies can be obtained correspondingly when the following distance change value is in different value intervals.

[0042] Step S513, according to the light color change strategy, control the change of the color of the control panel light. If the distance to the front vehicle within the following distance change value is greater than the safety distance of the preset safety threshold, the light color is the color in normal use, for example, the light color is white; if the distance to the front vehicle within the following distance change value is less than or equal to the safety distance of the preset safety threshold, and the relative speed within the following distance change value is less than or equal to the safety speed of the preset safety threshold, the light color changes to indicate that the distance is too close, for example, the light color is orange; if the distance to the front vehicle within the following distance change value is less than or equal to the safety distance of the preset safety threshold, and the relative speed within the following distance change value is greater than the safety speed of the preset safety threshold, the light color changes to indicate that the driving situation is urgent, for example, the light color is red.

[0043] In the second embodiment, the adjustment of the brightness of the control panel light includes but is not limited to the following steps: Step S521, obtaining a preset light brightness change model. In the light brightness change model, the light brightness of the control panel can be adjusted according to different following vehicle states, so as to facilitate the driver to intuitively distinguish.

[0044] Step S522: Input the following distance change value into the light brightness change model to obtain the first light brightness change strategy. Different value intervals are set in the light brightness change model, and different first light brightness change strategies can be obtained correspondingly when the following distance change value is in different value intervals.

[0045] Step S523, control the change of the brightness of the control panel light according to the first light brightness change strategy. If the distance to the front vehicle within the following distance change value is greater than the safety distance of the preset safety threshold, the light brightness is the state under normal use; if the distance to the front vehicle within the following distance change value is less than or equal to the safety distance of the preset safety threshold, and the relative speed within the following distance change value is less than or equal to the safety speed of the preset safety threshold, the brightness of the light changes to indicate that the distance is too close, for example, the brightness of the light is increased; if the distance to the front vehicle within the following distance change value is less than or equal to the safety distance of the preset safety threshold, and the relative speed within the following distance change value is greater than the safety speed of the preset safety threshold, the brightness of the light changes to indicate that the driving situation is urgent, for example, the light brightness is adjusted to the maximum.

[0046] Step S524, determine whether the first light brightness change strategy is executed. The first light obvious change strategy for driving safety prompts has a higher priority. When the brightness of the control panel light is changed according to the first light brightness change strategy, the driving is restored to a safe state, and the next level of light brightness adjustment control can be entered.

[0047] When the first light brightness change strategy is executed, the process proceeds to step S525 to obtain the light intensity outside the vehicle, thereby controlling the light brightness according to the light intensity outside the vehicle.

[0048] Step S526, input the light intensity outside the vehicle into the light brightness change model to obtain the second light brightness change strategy. Different value intervals are set in the light brightness change model, and different light intensities outside the vehicle are in different value intervals, and different second light brightness change strategies can be obtained accordingly.

[0049] Step S527, control the brightness of the control panel light according to the second light brightness change strategy. When the light intensity outside the vehicle is strong, the brightness of the control panel light is increased accordingly; when the light intensity outside the vehicle is weak, the brightness of the control panel light is decreased accordingly.

[0050] In the third embodiment, the adjustment of the on-time of the control panel light includes but is not limited to the following steps: Step S531, obtaining a preset light display mode model. In the light display mode model, the light display mode of the control panel can be adjusted according to different following vehicle states, for example, the light can be adjusted to be always on or flashing, so as to facilitate the driver to intuitively distinguish.

[0051] Step S532, input the following distance change value into the light display mode model to obtain the light display mode strategy. Different value intervals are set in the light display mode model, and different light display mode strategies can be obtained correspondingly when the following distance change value is in different value intervals.

[0052] Step S533, control the control panel lights to remain on or flash according to the light display mode strategy. If the distance to the vehicle ahead within the following distance change value is greater than the safety distance of the preset safety threshold, the lights are always on; if the distance to the vehicle ahead within the following distance change value is less than or equal to the safety distance of the preset safety threshold, and the relative speed within the following distance change value is less than or equal to the safety speed of the preset safety threshold, the display mode of the lights changes to indicate that the distance is too close, such as flashing lights; if the distance to the vehicle ahead within the following distance change value is less than or equal to the safety distance of the preset safety threshold, and the relative speed within the following distance change value is greater than the safety speed of the preset safety threshold, the display mode of the lights changes to indicate that the driving situation is urgent, such as flashing lights at a higher frequency, so as to warn the driver in time.

[0053] In step S400, when it is determined that the preset safety threshold is not greater than the following distance change value, that is, when the preset safety threshold is less than or equal to the following distance change value, the process proceeds to step S600, where the following state is determined to be a safe state, and the current state of the control panel light is maintained. When the distance to the leading vehicle within the following distance change value is greater than the safety distance of the preset safety threshold, the following state is a safe state at this time, and the current working state of the control panel light is maintained.

[0054] A second aspect of the present invention provides a control panel, which uses the above-mentioned control panel light adjustment method, including a control box and a lamp body, wherein: A display panel is provided on one side of the control box; The lamp body is located in the control box, and emits light outward through the display panel.

[0055] In this control panel, virtual buttons are set at the required positions on the display panel during production. When in use, the lamp body emits light outward from the position of the virtual buttons, making it convenient for users to click on the virtual buttons. During driving, when the following vehicle status is unsafe, the lights on the control panel are adjusted according to the driving information to display different statuses. In this way, the driver can judge the following vehicle safety status through the lights on the control panel, especially the sudden braking of the vehicle in front, which can be identified more quickly and accurately, thereby improving driving safety and enriching the use functions of the lights on the control panel, thereby improving the convenience and experience of driving.

[0056] In some embodiments, a control mark is provided at a position of the display panel facing the lamp body, and the color of the control mark is the same as the color of the display panel. For example, the control mark on the display panel is an ink character printed on its surface, and the ink character is the same color as the display panel. When closed, the entire control panel tends to form an integral large screen when viewed, improving the appearance.

[0057] The third aspect of the present invention provides a vehicle, including a memory, a processor, and a program stored in the memory and executable on the processor, wherein the program is executed by the processor to implement the above-mentioned control panel light adjustment method. The vehicle may be a private car, such as a sedan, SUV, MPV, or pickup truck. The vehicle may also be an operating vehicle, such as a van, bus, minivan, or large trailer. The vehicle needs to have an electric motor that can output power or store mechanical energy as a generator. When the vehicle is a new energy vehicle, it may be a hybrid vehicle or a pure electric vehicle.

[0058] When it is unsafe for the vehicle to follow a vehicle, the lights on the control panel will be adjusted according to the driving information to display different status. In this way, the driver can judge the safety status of the following vehicle through the lights on the control panel, especially the sudden braking of the vehicle in front, which can be identified more quickly and accurately, thereby improving driving safety. It also enriches the usage functions of the lights on the control panel and improves the convenience and experience of driving.

[0059] A fourth aspect of the present invention provides a computer-readable storage medium, wherein the computer-readable storage medium stores computer-executable instructions, and the computer-executable instructions are used to enable a computer to execute the above-mentioned control panel lighting adjustment method.

[0060] The above-mentioned control panel lighting adjustment method can be implemented as a computer program and be tangibly included in a computer-readable storage medium. When the processor uses this computer-readable storage medium to adjust the control panel light panel, when the following vehicle status is unsafe, the lights on the control panel can be adjusted according to the driving information to display different statuses. In this way, the driver can judge the following vehicle safety status through the lights on the control panel, especially the status of sudden braking of the vehicle in front can be identified more quickly and accurately, thereby improving driving safety, and enriching the usage functions of the lights on the control panel, improving the convenience and experience of driving.
