[0061] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are part of the embodiments of this application, not all of them. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0062] Reference Figure 1 , shows a flow chart of the steps of a vehicle control method provided by an embodiment of the present application, which can be applied to a vehicle terminal. Figure 1 As shown, the vehicle control method may include: step 101, step 102, step 103 and step 104.

[0063] Step 101: Obtain a vehicle usage request for a target vehicle sent by a user, wherein the vehicle usage request includes: a vehicle usage location.

[0064] The embodiments of the present application can be applied to a vehicle-mounted terminal, that is, the execution subject is the vehicle-mounted terminal.

[0065] A vehicle use request refers to a request for use of a vehicle at a future time sent by a user through an electronic device (such as a mobile phone, etc.) to the on-board terminal of a target vehicle. The vehicle use request includes the location of the vehicle, which can be the location added by the user when sending the vehicle use request.

[0066] In a specific implementation, when a user needs to use a target vehicle, they can use an electronic device to send a request to the target vehicle's onboard terminal. The request carries the location of the user using the target vehicle, i.e., the vehicle location. For example, when a user is heading to XX Amusement Park, they park their vehicle in the open parking lot of XX Amusement Park and enter from Entrance A of XX Amusement Park. When the user exits Entrance B of XX Amusement Park and needs to use the vehicle, they can use their mobile phone to send the vehicle's location to the onboard terminal, along with the location of the user's desired vehicle, such as Entrance B of XX Amusement Park. This ensures that the user only needs to clearly know their own location to use the "Find Me" function.

[0067] It can be understood that the above examples are merely examples listed for a better understanding of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application, and are not intended to be the sole limitation on the embodiments.

[0068] In actual application, when the user sends a request for a car, he or she can also include the time for using the car. That is, the user can use the APP on the mobile phone to enter the agreed time and place, and the car computer will plan the route to arrive at the designated location within the specified time.

[0069] After obtaining the vehicle use request for the target vehicle sent by the user, step 102 is executed.

[0070] Step 102: Determine whether there are parking restrictions at the vehicle location.

[0071] After obtaining the vehicle use request sent by the user for the target vehicle, the vehicle use request can be parsed to obtain the vehicle use location carried therein. Then, it can be determined whether there are any parking restrictions at the parking location. That is, it can be determined whether the vehicle use location is located in a prohibited parking location, a one-way road, or a temporary parking location. In a specific implementation, the location of the vehicle use location on an electronic map can be obtained, and based on the map data, it can be determined whether there are any parking restrictions at the vehicle use location. This implementation process can be combined with Figure 2 This is described in detail below.

[0072] Reference Figure 2 , shows a flowchart of the steps of a method for determining parking restriction conditions provided by an embodiment of the present application. Figure 2 As shown, the method for determining parking restriction conditions may include: step 201 and step 202.

[0073] Step 201: Obtain the map location of the vehicle on the electronic map.

[0074] In an embodiment of the present application, after parsing the vehicle request to obtain the vehicle location, the map location of the vehicle location on the electronic map can be obtained.

[0075] After obtaining the map position of the vehicle on the electronic map, step 202 is executed.

[0076] Step 202: Determine whether there is a parking restriction condition at the vehicle location based on the map data at the map location.

[0077] After obtaining the map location of the vehicle on the electronic map, it is possible to determine whether there are parking restrictions at the vehicle location based on the map data at the map location. Specifically, it is possible to determine whether the map location is located in a prohibited parking location, a one-way road, or a temporary parking location based on the map data, thereby determining whether there are parking restrictions at the vehicle location.

[0078] The embodiment of the present application determines whether there are parking restrictions at the vehicle location by combining map data, thereby improving the accuracy of identifying whether there are parking restrictions at the vehicle location.

[0079] After determining that there is no parking restriction condition at the vehicle location, step 103 is executed.

[0080] After determining that a parking restriction condition exists at the vehicle location, step 104 is executed.

[0081] Step 103: In response to determining that no parking restriction condition exists at the vehicle use location, controlling the target vehicle to automatically drive to the vehicle use location.

[0082] After determining that there are no parking restrictions at the vehicle location, the target vehicle can be controlled to automatically drive to the vehicle location so that the user can pick up the vehicle at the vehicle location. In a specific implementation, after determining that there are no parking restrictions at the vehicle location, a driving route for the target vehicle to the vehicle location can be planned, and the target vehicle can be controlled to automatically drive to the vehicle location based on the driving route. This implementation process can be combined with Figure 4 A detailed description is given below.

[0083] Reference Figure 4 , shows a flow chart of steps of another vehicle control method provided by an embodiment of the present application. Figure 4 As shown, the vehicle control method may include: step 401 and step 402.

[0084] Step 401: planning a driving route between the current parking position of the target vehicle and the vehicle usage position.

[0085] In an embodiment of the present application, after determining that no parking restrictions exist at the vehicle's location, a route can be planned between the target vehicle's current parking location and the vehicle's location. Specifically, the current parking location can be used as the starting location, and the vehicle's location can be used as the ending location. The starting and ending locations are then sent to an electronic map application within the vehicle terminal, which then uses the electronic map application to plan the route.

[0086] In a specific implementation, when the target vehicle's current parking position is in a parking lot, the pre-recorded video route of the target vehicle can be obtained and compared with the map data stored in the cloud based on the video route. If the latest map data exists, the driving route is planned according to the latest map data. Otherwise, the driving route is planned according to the original route. Figure 5 A detailed description is given below.

[0087] Reference Figure 5 , shows a flowchart of the steps of a driving route planning method provided by an embodiment of the present application. Figure 5 As shown, the driving route planning method may include: step 501, step 502, step 503 and step 504.

[0088] Step 501: When the current parking position of the target vehicle is in a parking lot, a video route recorded during the process of the target vehicle traveling from the entrance of the parking lot to the current parking position is obtained.

[0089] In an embodiment of the present application, when the current parking position of the target vehicle is within a parking lot, a video route recorded during the process of the target vehicle driving from the parking lot entrance to the current parking position can be obtained. That is, when the vehicle drives to the parking lot entrance and enters the parking lot, the recording function can be enabled to record the video route of the target vehicle driving from the parking lot entrance to the current parking position.

[0090] The embodiment of the present application has the following effects by pre-recording the video route:

[0091] 1. When there are changes to the interior of a parking lot with a publicly available floor plan and structural diagram, the wiring diagram will be compared with the floor plan to alert vehicle owners.

[0092] 2. For parking lots with undisclosed floor plans and structural diagrams, the driving route can be calculated by driving records.

[0093] 3. After the route is calculated, it can be uploaded to the cloud. For example, user XX uploaded the route from parking to Exit A.

[0094] 4. For parking lots whose floor plans and structural drawings are not publicly available, the owner of the parking lot can read the online deposit information and use it when entering for the first time.

[0095] After obtaining the video route recorded during the process of the target vehicle traveling from the entrance of the parking lot to the current parking position, step 502 is executed.

[0096] Step 502: Compare the video route with the parking lines of the parking lot to obtain a comparison result.

[0097] After obtaining the video route recorded during the process of the target vehicle traveling from the entrance of the parking lot to the current parking position, the video route can be compared with the parking lines of the parking lot to obtain a comparison result.

[0098] In a specific implementation, the parking routes of a parking lot refer to the parking routes indicated by a parking lot plan or a structural diagram published in advance by the parking lot.

[0099] After the video route is compared with the parking lines in the parking lot to obtain a comparison result, step 503 or step 504 is executed.

[0100] Step 503: When the comparison result indicates that the parking route in the parking lot has changed, the latest map data corresponding to the parking lot is obtained, and a driving route between the current parking position and the vehicle location is planned according to the latest map data.

[0101] When the comparison result indicates that the parking lines in the parking lot have changed, the latest map data corresponding to the parking lot can be obtained, and the driving route between the current parking location and the vehicle location can be planned based on the latest map data.

[0102] Step 504: When the comparison result indicates that the parking lines in the parking lot have not changed, a first driving route between the current parking position and the entrance of the parking lot, and a second driving route between the entrance of the parking lot and the vehicle location are planned, and the first driving route and the second driving route are used as the driving route.

[0103] When the comparison result indicates that the parking routes in the parking lot have not changed, a first driving route between the current parking position and the entrance of the parking lot and a second driving route between the entrance of the parking lot and the vehicle usage location can be planned, and the first driving route and the second driving route can be used as the driving routes of the target vehicle between the current parking position and the vehicle usage location.

[0104] The embodiment of the present application can improve the accuracy of driving route planning by combining the latest map data of the parking lot or planning the driving route according to the original route into the parking lot.

[0105] After the travel route between the current parking position and the vehicle usage position of the target vehicle is planned, step 402 is executed.

[0106] Step 402: Based on the driving route, control the target vehicle to automatically drive to the vehicle location.

[0107] After the target vehicle's current parking location and the vehicle's intended location are planned, the target vehicle can be controlled to automatically drive to the intended location based on the driving route. Specifically, the vehicle-mounted terminal can transmit the driving route to the target vehicle's vehicle controller, which then controls the target vehicle to automatically drive from the current parking location to the intended location based on the driving route.

[0108] The embodiment of the present application plans the driving route of the target vehicle to control the target vehicle to automatically drive to the vehicle use location, and can control the vehicle to automatically drive to the vehicle use location to improve the accuracy of automatic driving control.

[0109] Step 104: In response to determining that a parking restriction condition exists at the vehicle usage position, the vehicle usage position is changed to a target vehicle usage position, and the target vehicle is controlled to automatically drive to the target vehicle usage position.

[0110] In this embodiment, when it is determined that the vehicle location is in a prohibited parking location, a temporary parking location or a one-way road section, it can be determined that there are parking restrictions at the vehicle location. Figure 3This is described in detail below.

[0111] Reference Figure 3 , shows a flowchart of another method for determining parking restriction conditions provided by an embodiment of the present application. Figure 3 As shown, the method for determining parking restriction conditions may include: step 301 , step 302 and step 303 .

[0112] Step 301: When the map data indicates that the map location is located at a prohibited parking location, determining whether a parking restriction condition exists at the vehicle location.

[0113] Step 302: When the map data indicates that the map location is within a one-way road section, determine whether a parking restriction condition exists at the vehicle location.

[0114] Step 303: When the map data indicates that the map location is at a temporary parking location, and the time it takes for the user to arrive at the vehicle location is longer than a set time compared to the time it takes for the target vehicle to arrive at the vehicle location, it is determined that there is a parking restriction condition at the vehicle location.

[0115] In an embodiment of the present application, when the map data indicates that the map location is located at a prohibited parking location, it can be determined that a parking restriction condition exists at the vehicle location.

[0116] When the map data indicates that the map location is within a one-way road section, it can be determined that there are parking restrictions at the vehicle location.

[0117] If the map data indicates that the map location is a temporary parking spot, and the user's arrival time at the vehicle location exceeds the target vehicle's arrival time by a predetermined amount, a parking restriction condition may be determined to exist at the vehicle location. That is, if the vehicle location is a temporary parking spot and the estimated arrival time of the user and the vehicle differ by 2 minutes or more, the user is prompted that parking is not possible at the spot, indicating that a parking restriction condition exists at the vehicle location.

[0118] In actual applications, other conditions can also be combined to determine whether there are parking restrictions at the vehicle location, such as whether the vehicle location is located on the sidewalk. Specifically, the method for determining parking restrictions can be determined according to actual conditions, and this embodiment does not limit this.

[0119] After determining that parking restrictions exist at the vehicle's location, the vehicle's location can be changed to a target location, where parking restrictions do not exist. At this point, the target vehicle can be controlled to automatically drive to the target location. Specifically, the target vehicle's current parking location can be used as the starting location, and the target location as the ending location. The vehicle terminal can then send the starting and ending locations to an electronic map application within the vehicle terminal. The electronic map application then plans a route between the starting and ending locations and sends the route to the vehicle controller. The vehicle controller can then control the target vehicle to automatically drive from the current parking location to the target location according to the route.

[0120] In a specific implementation, the target vehicle location can be a location that the user has changed, that is, there are parking restrictions at the vehicle location. In this case, a location change prompt can be sent to the user so that the user can change the vehicle location to the target vehicle location. Figure 6 This is described in detail below.

[0121] Reference Figure 6 , shows a flow chart of the steps of a position replacement method provided by an embodiment of the present application. Figure 6 As shown, the position changing method may include: step 601, step 602 and step 603.

[0122] Step 601: Generate location change prompt information corresponding to the vehicle location.

[0123] In an embodiment of the present application, after determining that there are parking restrictions at the vehicle location, position change prompt information corresponding to the vehicle location can be generated.

[0124] After generating the location change prompt information corresponding to the vehicle location, step 602 is executed.

[0125] Step 602: Send the location change prompt information to the user.

[0126] After generating the position change prompt information corresponding to the vehicle location, the position change prompt information may be sent to the user.

[0127] After the location change prompt information is sent to the user, step 603 is executed.

[0128] Step 603: Obtain the target vehicle location after the location change sent by the user.

[0129] After the location change prompt information is sent to the user, the user can change the vehicle location and send the changed target vehicle location to the vehicle terminal.

[0130] The embodiment of the present application improves the user's selectivity by allowing the user to change the vehicle location by himself when there are parking restrictions at the vehicle location.

[0131] In a specific implementation, the target vehicle location can be the vehicle location replaced by the vehicle terminal, that is, when there are parking restrictions at the vehicle location, the vehicle terminal can filter out the target vehicle location from multiple parking locations within a preset distance range from the vehicle location. Figure 7 A detailed description is given below.

[0132] Reference Figure 7 , shows a flow chart of the steps of a vehicle location screening method provided by an embodiment of the present application. Figure 7 As shown, the vehicle location screening method may include: step 701, step 702 and step 703.

[0133] Step 701: Acquire multiple parking locations within a preset distance range from the vehicle location.

[0134] In this embodiment, when it is determined that a parking restriction condition exists at the vehicle location, a plurality of parking locations within a preset distance range from the vehicle location may be acquired.

[0135] In this example, the preset distance range may be 300 meters, 500 meters, 1000 meters, etc. Specifically, the specific value of the preset distance range may be determined according to business requirements, and this embodiment does not impose any limitation on this.

[0136] After obtaining multiple parking locations within a preset distance range from the vehicle location, step 702 is executed.

[0137] Step 702: Obtain pedestrian flow information and / or vehicle flow information within the road section where the multiple parking locations are located.

[0138] After obtaining a plurality of parking locations within a preset distance range from the vehicle location, pedestrian flow information and / or vehicle flow information within the road section where the plurality of parking locations are located may be obtained.

[0139] After obtaining the pedestrian flow information and / or vehicle flow information within the road section where the multiple parking locations are located, step 703 is executed.

[0140] Step 703: Based on the pedestrian flow information and / or the vehicle flow information, the target vehicle location is selected from the plurality of parking locations.

[0141] After obtaining the pedestrian flow information and / or vehicle flow information of the road sections where multiple parking locations are located, the target vehicle location can be filtered out from the multiple parking locations based on the pedestrian flow information and / or vehicle flow information. For example, when the user cannot select the first parking spot (i.e., the vehicle location), a search is performed within 500 meters of the user-selected parking spot to provide parking spots that are not prohibited, where the difference between the user and the vehicle's arrival time is ≤1 minute, and that are not one-way roads. The specific judgment is as follows:

[0142] 1. Crowd Flow Detection: When there is a large flow of people near the selected parking spot, the user will be notified that there is a large flow of people around. Parking spots with less traffic will be recommended.

[0143] 2. Traffic flow judgment: When selecting a parking spot, the traffic congestion situation is judged based on the road section, such as the number of congested meters / travel time, etc. If the congested road section is ≥ 200 meters and the travel time is ≥ 10 minutes, the user will be prompted that the route is congested and asked to decide whether to choose this parking spot or change to another parking spot.

[0144] The embodiment of the present application filters the target vehicle location by combining the traffic and / or pedestrian flow at the parking location, thereby avoiding locations with large traffic and / or pedestrian flow, and improving the safety factor of the vehicle's automatic driving.

[0145] In this embodiment, when the target vehicle automatically drives to the parking location, if the user cancels the use of the vehicle, the target vehicle can be controlled to return to the original parking location. Figure 8 This is described in detail below.

[0146] Reference Figure 8 , shows a flow chart of the steps of a vehicle return control method provided by an embodiment of the present application. Figure 8 As shown, the vehicle return control method may include: step 801 and step 802.

[0147] Step 801: While the target vehicle is automatically driving to the vehicle usage location, the vehicle usage cancellation request information sent by the user is obtained.

[0148] In an embodiment of the present application, when the target vehicle automatically drives to the vehicle use location, if the user wants to cancel the use of the vehicle, a cancellation request message can be sent to the vehicle terminal.

[0149] After obtaining the vehicle use cancellation request information sent by the user, execute step 802.

[0150] Step 802: In response to the cancellation of the vehicle use request information, control the target vehicle to return to the original parking position.

[0151] After receiving the cancellation request from the user, the target vehicle can be controlled to return to the original parking location in response to the cancellation request. In other words, the user can control the parking or movement of the vehicle through the mobile phone. If the owner needs to cancel the parking, the car will return to the parking lot and automatically park.

[0152] The embodiment of the present application allows users to control the vehicle through their mobile phones, thereby improving the user's experience in using the vehicle.

[0153] In the embodiment of the present application, the car request also includes the car time. If the target vehicle cannot arrive at the car location on time, a late arrival reminder can be sent to the user so that the user can prepare. Figure 9 This is described in detail below.

[0154] Reference Figure 9 , shows a flowchart of the steps of a prompt information sending method provided by an embodiment of the present application. Figure 9 As shown, the prompt information sending method may include: step 901, step 902 and step 903.

[0155] Step 901: Determine the arrival time of the target vehicle at the vehicle usage location based on the planned driving route of the target vehicle to the vehicle usage location.

[0156] In an embodiment of the present application, after the driving route for the target vehicle to travel to the vehicle utilization location is planned, the arrival time of the target vehicle at the vehicle utilization location can be estimated based on the driving route.

[0157] After the arrival time of the target vehicle at the vehicle usage location is determined, step 902 is executed.

[0158] Step 902: When the arrival time is later than the vehicle use time, generate late arrival prompt information based on the arrival time.

[0159] After determining the arrival time of the target vehicle at the vehicle utilization location, it can be determined whether the arrival time is later than the vehicle utilization time in the vehicle utilization request.

[0160] If the arrival time is later than the vehicle usage time, a late arrival reminder message can be generated based on the arrival time.

[0161] After generating the delayed arrival prompt information based on the arrival time, step 903 is executed.

[0162] Step 903: Send the delayed arrival prompt information to the user.

[0163] After generating a delayed arrival notification based on the arrival time, the user can be notified of the delayed arrival. For example, if the driver selects a location and the car searches for a route, and if it can arrive at the specified time, the user will be notified: "I will depart at XX time." If the driver selects a location and the car searches for a route, and the route is complex and a specified arrival time cannot be specified, the user will be notified: "I can no longer specify a time to arrive, and I will arrive XX minutes late." The user can then find a place to rest and wait for the car, or temporarily arrange a time to travel to the requested location (or target location).

[0164] In this embodiment of the present application, users can also monitor the target vehicle's movement through electronic devices. For example, when the vehicle automatically moves to a designated location, the user can control the vehicle's speed, such as controlling the vehicle's speed to ≤10km / h to 15km / h. The user can also view the vehicle's progress, such as road conditions, map information, vehicle location, and camera data, thereby improving vehicle intelligence.

[0165] In the embodiment of the present application, the user sends a vehicle request to the vehicle to control the vehicle to automatically drive to the vehicle location indicated by the vehicle request, which can effectively improve the efficiency of the user in finding the vehicle, increase the vehicle intelligence and the user's experience of using the vehicle.

[0166] The vehicle control method provided in an embodiment of the present application obtains a vehicle use request sent by a user for a target vehicle, the vehicle use request including: the vehicle use location, determining whether there are parking restrictions at the vehicle use location, and in response to determining that there are no parking restrictions at the vehicle use location, controlling the target vehicle to automatically drive to the vehicle use location, and in response to determining that there are parking restrictions at the vehicle use location, changing the vehicle use location to a target vehicle use location, and controlling the target vehicle to automatically drive to the target vehicle use location. By having a user send a vehicle use request to a vehicle, the embodiment of the present application controls the vehicle to automatically drive to the vehicle use location indicated by the vehicle use request, effectively improving the efficiency of users in finding vehicles, increasing vehicle intelligence, and enhancing the user's vehicle use experience.
