[0064] The above drawings have shown clear embodiments of the present application, which will be described in more detail later. These drawings and text descriptions are not intended to limit the scope of the present application in any way, but to illustrate the concept of the present application to those skilled in the art by referring to specific embodiments. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0065] The following will describe the embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of the present invention from the contents disclosed in this specification. The present invention can also be implemented or applied through other different specific embodiments, and the details in this specification can also be modified or changed in various ways based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of the present invention. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments are only for illustrating the present invention, not for limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0066] Users often use vehicle cameras to record the scenery along the way, especially when it is inconvenient for some users to shoot manually. As the use scenarios of vehicles continue to expand, vehicle camping has become a common vehicle use scenario. When camping, users may also encounter some beautiful scenery, such as sunrise, sunset, starry sky, meteor shower, etc. However, the user may miss the time when the event occurred due to some reasons, and the vehicle is not turned on at that time, so no video is recorded and the beautiful scenery cannot be captured.

[0067] In view of the above problems, the inventors found in the process of studying this that when it is inconvenient for the user, the camera can be controlled to shoot by scheduling shooting, and the user can choose the shooting duration. When the scheduled time is reached, the vehicle-mounted camera records the video according to the scheduled shooting duration. In this way, the scenery can be automatically shot when it is inconvenient for the user. Furthermore, the angle of the shooting camera can be adjusted, and the user can adjust it to a specified angle for scheduled shooting, so that the viewing angle meets the user's needs.

[0068] The execution subject of the vehicle scheduled photography method provided by the present invention may be a vehicle computer, a controller in the vehicle computer, or a processor in the vehicle computer controller.

[0069] The following uses the vehicle computer as the execution subject to explain in detail the technical solution of the present invention and how the technical solution of the present invention solves the above technical problems through specific embodiments. The following specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be repeated in some embodiments. The embodiments of the present invention will be described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0070] Figure 1 The flowchart of the method for scheduling vehicle photography provided by the present invention is shown in FIG. Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0071] S101. Acquire pre-stored reservation information, where the reservation information includes a reservation shooting time and a reservation shooting mode, wherein different reservation shooting modes have different shooting durations.

[0072] In this step, the reservation information is pre-stored in the vehicle computer. The reservation information may be pre-entered by the user in the vehicle computer, or may be received from an external terminal device (eg, a mobile phone).

[0073] After receiving the reservation information, the vehicle computer stores the reservation information.

[0074] A possible scenario: the user leaves the vehicle, turns off the power, and the vehicle computer goes into sleep mode. In this scenario, each time the vehicle computer exits sleep mode, the pre-stored reservation information is obtained to determine whether the scheduled shooting time has arrived. The vehicle computer can exit sleep mode in the following ways:

[0075] In one implementation, the vehicle system has a built-in timer module that can set a timed task. Even in the sleep state, the timer will continue to time. The scheduled shooting time is set as the wake-up time. When the set wake-up time arrives, the timer module will trigger a wake-up signal to wake up the vehicle system.

[0076] In another implementation, the 4G module of the vehicle computer stores the scheduled shooting time, which is stored in the form of a long type timestamp. When the vehicle computer is in a dormant state, the 4G module will query the current time at a preset time, compare it with the preset shooting time, and determine whether the scheduled shooting time has arrived. If the scheduled time has arrived, the 4G module will notify the vehicle computer system to end the dormant state.

[0077] The preset time can be set to 4 minutes, 5 minutes or 10 minutes, with no limitation.

[0078] The 4G module can query the current time through the network or from other modules with built-in clocks in the vehicle.

[0079] Optionally, the function of the above-mentioned 4G module can also be replaced by other communication modules, such as a 3G communication module or a 5G communication module.

[0080] In another implementation, the vehicle computer can be equipped with an external real-time clock (RTC) chip, which can keep working when the main system is dormant. The RTC can trigger an interrupt signal according to the scheduled shooting time to wake up the vehicle computer system.

[0081] In another implementation, the vehicle system supports CAN bus wake-up, and an external CAN message can trigger system wake-up through the vehicle network at a set time. The vehicle system receives a specific CAN message in sleep mode to wake up.

[0082] A possible scenario: the user is using the vehicle, the vehicle is started (for example, when the engine or motor is started), and the vehicle computer is in a non-sleep state. In this scenario, when setting a reservation, the user chooses whether to perform the scheduled shooting during the use of the vehicle. If the user does not check this function, the scheduled shooting task will not be performed when the vehicle is started.

[0083] S102: When the scheduled shooting time arrives, control the camera to shoot according to the scheduled shooting mode.

[0084] In this step, the camera is controlled to shoot images or videos. The specific settings need to be set according to needs.

[0085] If the scheduled shooting mode indicates shooting a video, when the scheduled shooting time arrives, the shooting time of the shooting mode is determined according to the scheduled shooting mode. According to the shooting time and the scheduled shooting time, the shooting time can be determined, and the camera is controlled to record the video within the shooting time, and the recording is stopped when the shooting time ends.

[0086] Among them, different scheduled shooting modes have different shooting durations.

[0087] Exemplarily, the scheduled shooting modes include: traffic mode, cloud mode, sunrise mode, starry sky mode, and custom mode. In traffic mode, the total recording time is ten minutes. In cloud mode, the total recording time is twenty minutes. In sunrise mode, the total recording time is thirty minutes. In starry sky mode, the total recording time is sixty minutes. These modes are built-in modes for users to choose from in the car computer. Users can also set the total recording time through the custom mode.

[0088] Optionally, the reservation information also includes a reservation shooting angle. Before starting recording, the camera is controlled to rotate to the reservation shooting angle.

[0089] The method for scheduled shooting of a vehicle provided by an embodiment of the present invention comprises: obtaining pre-stored scheduled information, the scheduled information comprising a scheduled shooting time and a scheduled shooting mode; when the scheduled shooting time arrives, controlling a camera to shoot according to the scheduled shooting mode. When it is inconvenient for the user, the camera is controlled to shoot according to the scheduled shooting mode through the scheduled shooting method to record the required scenery, thereby improving the user experience.

[0090] Based on the first embodiment of the above method, the video recorded according to the shooting time will be relatively long, which is troublesome for users to watch and share. The following is an embodiment to solve this problem.

[0091] Figure 2 The flowchart of the second embodiment of the method for booking a vehicle photo shoot provided by the present invention is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the method includes:

[0092] S201: Determine the shooting interval duration corresponding to the scheduled shooting mode according to the scheduled shooting mode.

[0093] Among them, the shooting interval durations corresponding to different scheduled shooting modes are pre-stored in the car computer.

[0094] Exemplary:

[0095] Traffic mode, the shooting time is ten minutes, the shooting interval is 1 second, and one picture is taken to synthesize the video;

[0096] In the Flowing Cloud mode, the shooting time is ten minutes, and the shooting interval is 2 seconds to take a picture to synthesize the video;

[0097] Sunrise mode, the shooting time is 30 minutes, the shooting interval is 5 seconds, and one picture is taken to synthesize the video;

[0098] Starry sky mode, shooting time is 60 minutes, shooting interval is 25 seconds to take a picture to synthesize the video;

[0099] Custom shooting mode. The shooting duration ranges from 3 to 120 minutes, and the shooting interval ranges from 1 second to 25 seconds for a composite video.

[0100] S202, acquiring an interval image at every shooting interval time.

[0101] In one implementation, after the scheduled shooting time arrives, the camera is controlled to acquire an image every shooting interval.

[0102] In one implementation, after the scheduled shooting time arrives, a video is recorded, and an image is acquired from the recorded video at every shooting interval.

[0103] S203: After the shooting time is over, a composite video is generated based on all the interval images.

[0104] In this step, the scheduled shooting ends, that is, the shooting time ends, and all the interval images are synthesized into a video in the order of timestamps. Among them, the number of frames of the synthesized video is preset, which can be set to 24 frames per second, 48 frames, or 60 frames, without specific restrictions.

[0105] Optionally, the order of synthesizing videos in different scheduled shooting modes is different. In some scheduled shooting modes, videos are synthesized in the order of increasing time. In some scheduled shooting modes, videos are synthesized in the order of submitting time.

[0106] Through this method, when scheduling a photo shoot, images can be taken at intervals, and short videos can be quickly generated, making it convenient for subsequent users to view and share.

[0107] Based on any of the above method embodiments, if a user wants to obtain dynamic changes of an object, such as capturing the changes of the sun in a day, the sun may not be recognized in some time periods when captured at a certain shooting angle. The above problem is described below with an embodiment.

[0108] Figure 3 The flowchart of the third embodiment of the method for booking a vehicle photo shoot provided by the present invention is as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the method includes:

[0109] S301: Acquire pre-stored reservation information, wherein the reservation information includes a reservation start shooting angle and a reservation end shooting angle.

[0110] In this step, the user sets the scheduled start shooting angle and the scheduled end shooting angle in advance. For example, the user rotates the camera through the vehicle computer, rotates it to the desired angle, and sets it as the start shooting angle. Then rotate the camera to a certain angle and set it as the end shooting angle.

[0111] When the scheduled shooting time arrives, the camera is controlled to rotate to the scheduled shooting start angle.

[0112] S302: Determine a shooting angle difference according to the scheduled start shooting angle and the scheduled end shooting angle.

[0113] In this step, before starting to shoot, the scheduled end shooting angle is subtracted from the scheduled start shooting angle to determine the total shooting angle difference that the camera needs to rotate during the shooting period.

[0114] S303: Determine the rotation speed of the camera according to the shooting angle difference and the shooting time of the scheduled shooting mode.

[0115] The obtained shooting angle difference indicates the total angle that the camera needs to rotate within the shooting time. The shooting angle difference is placed in the shooting time to obtain the angle of camera rotation within the unit shooting time, that is, the camera rotation speed.

[0116] S304, controlling the camera to rotate to the scheduled shooting start angle.

[0117] When the scheduled shooting time arrives, when shooting, control the camera to rotate to the scheduled shooting start angle first.

[0118] S305, controlling the camera to perform rotation shooting according to the rotation speed during the scheduled shooting period.

[0119] After starting to shoot, the camera is controlled to rotate within the shooting time according to the rotation speed, and the shooting is performed according to the shooting mode while rotating. The shooting can be a video, or an image can be taken at a time interval.

[0120] This embodiment can be set to rotate and shoot according to user needs, and can be suitable for shooting moving objects such as the sun, moon, and clouds, avoiding the problem of a single picture shot from a single perspective and the inability to shoot the object because it moves out of the picture.

[0121] In the scenario of using a vehicle, the vehicle camera or driving recorder will work and shoot video, and no appointment is required in this scenario. In some early mornings or evenings, the vehicle computer is in a dormant (powered off) state, and the vehicle camera does not work at this time, so an appointment is required to shoot. The user sets the appointment information in advance, but when the user needs to adjust, he is not next to the vehicle and needs to remotely modify the appointment information. The following is an example of remotely modifying appointment information.

[0122] Figure 4 The flowchart of the fourth embodiment of the method for scheduling vehicle photography provided by the present invention is as follows: Figure 4 As shown, the method includes:

[0123] S401, receiving a wake-up instruction, where the wake-up instruction is used to make the vehicle computer exit the sleep state.

[0124] In this step, the user initiates a wake-up request through the in-vehicle application on the mobile phone. After receiving the wake-up request from the mobile phone, the cloud server forwards it to the communication module of the vehicle; the communication module in the vehicle (such as the 4G module) receives the wake-up instruction from the cloud server; the communication module decodes the received instruction and identifies the wake-up command. The control unit of the in-vehicle system triggers the wake-up mechanism according to the received wake-up instruction. The vehicle's power management module restores the system from a dormant state or a low-power state to a normal working state, loads the operating system, and initializes applications and peripherals. The vehicle sends the successful wake-up status information back to the mobile phone application to confirm that the wake-up operation has been completed.

[0125] S402: Determine whether the current time reaches the scheduled shooting time.

[0126] After the car computer wakes up, get the current time to determine whether the scheduled shooting time has arrived.

[0127] S403: If the current time reaches the scheduled shooting time, control the camera to shoot according to the scheduled information.

[0128] S404: If the current time has not reached the scheduled shooting time, determine whether a new instruction is received within the preset time period.

[0129] In this step, if the scheduled shooting time has not yet arrived, the vehicle is kept in a non-sleeping state for a preset time period and continuously checks whether a new instruction is received.

[0130] S405: If no new instruction is received within a preset time period, the vehicle computer is controlled to enter a dormant state.

[0131] S406: If a new instruction is received within the preset time period, and the new instruction includes new reservation information, the new reservation information will overwrite the previously stored reservation information.

[0132] In this step, a new instruction is received and parsed. The new instruction may include some instructions from the user. If the new instruction does not contain reservation information, the previous reservation information will not be processed. If the new instruction contains new reservation information, the new reservation information will overwrite the previously stored reservation information.

[0133] Through this embodiment, it is supported to expand the scenarios of scheduled shooting by remotely modifying or setting the reservation information after the vehicle is dormant. The user no longer needs to set it on the vehicle computer, but can set it on the mobile phone, thereby improving the user experience.

[0134] The shooting mode of the vehicle computer includes a sunrise mode for shooting sunrise. However, when shooting sunrise, the angle position of the vehicle camera is relatively high. If the angle of the vehicle camera is not appropriate, the sun will not appear in the picture. The following is an example of an embodiment to introduce the control method in the sunrise mode.

[0135] Figure 5 The flowchart of the fifth embodiment of the method for scheduling vehicle photography provided by the present invention is as follows: Figure 5 As shown, the method includes:

[0136] S501. When the scheduled shooting time arrives, the camera is rotated to the scheduled shooting angle.

[0137] S502: Acquire brightness data collected by the ambient light sensor.

[0138] In one implementation, when the scheduled shooting time arrives, the brightness data of the ambient light sensor is obtained. If the brightness data is greater than a preset value, it means that sunrise is about to occur, and subsequent steps are executed.

[0139] In another implementation, the brightness data collected by the ambient light sensor may be interfered with by street lights or other vehicles, and the sunrise time of the current area is obtained through the Internet, or the sunrise time of the current area is stored in the vehicle, and subsequent steps are performed within a preset time before the sunrise time.

[0140] S503: Control the camera to change the vertical angle to capture an image.

[0141] In this step, in order to determine the sunrise position and the position of the sun, the camera angle needs to be adjusted accurately. The horizontal angle has been reserved, and the vertical angle of the camera needs to be determined.

[0142] S504: Determine the sunrise line from the captured image.

[0143] In this step, the captured image is processed, and image processing algorithms are usually used to identify the horizon and the sunrise line. For example, an edge detection algorithm (such as Canny edge detection) can be used to identify the horizon, and image segmentation techniques can be used to identify the position of the sunrise line, which is the position where the sun rises.

[0144] S505, controlling the longitudinal angle of the camera to place the sunrise line at a preset position on the screen.

[0145] In one implementation, the preset position may be set to a position below half the height of the picture. For example, if the total height of the picture is H, the sunrise line needs to be set to any picture position that is less than H / 2.

[0146] In one implementation, the preset position is an area between two preset horizontal lines in the picture. For example, if the total height of the picture is H, the preset position is an area between a horizontal line of H / 2 and a horizontal line of 1 / 4H.

[0147] The preset position can also be set to other positions according to needs, and the user can also adjust the preset position in advance to make the sun appear in the picture.

[0148] Through this embodiment, in sunrise mode, by adjusting the vertical height of the camera according to the sunrise line, the shooting quality is improved and the user experience is improved. In sunrise mode, the user can also set the scheduled shooting angle in the horizontal direction and the scheduled shooting angle in the vertical direction in advance. However, for sunrise, the sun generally does not rise from the horizon, so it is difficult to set the shooting angle in the vertical direction. For the scheduled shooting angle in the vertical direction, the above method can save the user's setting time and improve the quality of sunrise shooting.

[0149] In some shooting modes, users need to shoot the movement of an object within the recording time, such as shooting the movement of the moon at night. If the angle of the camera shooting picture does not change, the moon may not be captured in the picture after it moves, affecting the user experience. This problem can be solved by setting the scheduled start shooting angle and the scheduled end shooting angle in the above embodiment, but users are often not clear about the moving direction and location of the moon and need to consult a lot of information. Therefore, the following embodiment provides another solution.

[0150] Figure 6 Schematic diagram of the flow chart of the sixth embodiment of the method for booking vehicle photography provided by the present invention, as shown in FIG. Figure 6 As shown, the method includes:

[0151] S601: Obtain a picture of an object that needs to be followed and photographed, input by a user.

[0152] In this step, the user inputs a picture containing an object to be followed. The object to be followed can be the moon, an animal, etc., and there is no limitation here.

[0153] S602: Store the image of the object to be followed.

[0154] In this step, objects in the object picture are identified, and each object is displayed on the vehicle screen for the user to select the object to be followed. According to the user's selection operation, the object image to be followed is determined and stored.

[0155] S603: When the scheduled shooting time arrives, control the camera to shoot images at various angles.

[0156] In this step, the camera is controlled to rotate at different angles for continuous shooting, and each image taken is stored to ensure that they can be used for subsequent processing.

[0157] S604: Identify whether there is a following object in the captured image.

[0158] In this step, image processing algorithms are used to analyze each captured image. Common algorithms include feature matching, template matching, and object detection. The captured image is compared with the stored image template of the object being followed to identify whether the object exists.

[0159] If an object is detected, record the object's position in the image. Optionally, use a coordinate system to mark the object's position

[0160] S605: Adjust the angle of the camera so that the following object is displayed at a preset position on the screen.

[0161] In this step, the camera angle that needs to be adjusted is calculated based on the identified position of the follow-up object, with the goal of moving the object to a preset position in the picture.

[0162] After adjusting the camera angle, perform a verification shot to verify that the object is in the preset position. If necessary, fine-tune to ensure that the object is in the preset position in the picture.

[0163] S606: Take a new image at every preset following time, and adjust the angle of the camera according to the position of the followed object so that the followed object is displayed within the preset position range of the picture.
