Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of vehicle light control, and in particular to a vehicle light control method, device, system and storage medium. Background Art

[0002] Headlights are not only related to driving safety, but also an important manifestation of the intelligent and personalized development of modern automobiles. Therefore, in addition to the basic headlights, fog lights, daytime running lights, turn signals, brake lights, reversing lights, double flashes, etc., some models are also equipped with decorative lights such as LED daytime running lights and interior atmosphere lights, which not only enhance the appearance of the vehicle, but also add personalized elements, satisfying consumers' pursuit of automotive aesthetics and comfort.

[0003] As an important part of the interior scene, the interior atmosphere light is increasingly concerned by consumers. With the popularity of new energy vehicles, the power consumption restrictions of the parts in the car have been lifted, allowing the interior atmosphere light of the car to develop in the direction of more brilliant colors, more complex functions, and more diverse layouts. Some new cars focus on the quality of the atmosphere light and the balance of intelligent interaction, while some luxury brands take into account both the quality of the atmosphere light and intelligent interaction.

[0004] Whether it is the quality of the ambient light or the sense of intelligent interaction, it needs to be achieved by arranging multiple multi-color LEDs in various positions of the vehicle. In order to achieve the silky effect of the ambient light, it is necessary to plan a high-speed transmission channel, which undoubtedly has higher requirements for the signal transmission and wiring harness layout of the vehicle. At present, the in-vehicle ambient lights of most vehicles need to use CAN communication for interaction and control, which increases the development cost of the ambient light on the one hand, and the wiring harness cost of the vehicle on the other hand. Summary of the invention

[0012] The next control instruction in the control queue is sent to the second cache in an idle state by the MCU until there is no idle cache in the plurality of preset caches or all the control instructions in the control queue are read.

[0013] The beneficial effect of the present application is that the MCU can interact with the headlight control module through wireless communication, so that the headlights can be controlled through wireless communication, without the need for interaction and control through CAN communication, thereby reducing the development cost of the ambient light and the cost of the entire vehicle wiring harness. Secondly, in the present application, by setting up multiple caches, when communicating with the headlight control module through wireless communication, the control instructions can be read from the control instruction queue, and then the control instructions can be sent alternately to different caches. In this way, data transmission and data update can be carried out at the same time, without waiting for the data to be sent before updating the data.

Together with the embodiments of the present application, they are used to explain the present application and do not constitute a limitation of the present application. In the accompanying drawings:

[0071] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the hardware structure of a vehicle light control system in one embodiment of the present application. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0072] The preferred embodiments of the present application are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present application and are not used to limit the present application.

[0073] Figure 1 Flow chart of a vehicle light control method in one embodiment of the present application. Figure 1 As shown, the method can be implemented as the following steps S101-S106:

[0074] In step S101, when the MCU interacts with the vehicle light control module via wireless communication, the MCU reads a control instruction from a control queue;

[0075] In step S102, multiple preset caches in the MCU are polled to determine whether there is an idle cache;

[0076] In step S103, when there is an idle cache, the control instruction is sent to the first cache in an idle state through the MCU;

[0077] In step S104, the first buffer is used as a sending buffer to send the control instruction to a vehicle light control module;

[0078] In step S105, while sending the control instruction to the vehicle light control module through the first cache, the next control instruction is read from the control queue through the MCU;

[0079] In step S106, the next control instruction in the control queue is sent to the second cache in an idle state through the MCU until there is no idle cache in the plurality of preset caches or all control instructions in the control queue are read.

[0080] The executor of the present application may be a vehicle controller of a vehicle. In the present application, when the MCU interacts with the headlight control module via wireless communication, the MCU reads control instructions from the control queue.

[0081] Among them, when the vehicle detects a preset event, it generates a control instruction; then the generated control instruction is stored in the control queue. Therefore, the control instruction in the control queue is generated by the vehicle when the preset event is detected. For example: the generation of the headlight interaction instruction can be generated by receiving the driver's control instruction, or it can be generated according to the specific driving environment (such as automatically turning on the low beam, turning on the high beam in a particularly dark place), or it can be generated according to the vehicle status (such as automatically turning on the double flash when the vehicle breaks down), or it can be generated according to the inferred driver intention (such as detecting the intention to turn left, automatically turning on the left turn signal). It can also be generated according to the driving mode switch (such as switching from sports mode to nap mode, and the ambient light animation is also switched to the corresponding animation).

[0082] Specifically, the wireless communication method can be Bluetooth, WIFI, mobile communication and other communication methods. Since WIFI, mobile communication and other methods need to be used in areas close to the communication base station, and cannot be used in areas that are not covered by the communication base station, if WIFI, mobile communication and other methods are not available, it is impossible to support the MCU and the car light control module to interact through wireless communication. Therefore, the MCU and the car light control module can be connected in a wired manner and a wireless manner at the same time. When there are multiple car light control modules, it can also be connected to one of the car light control modules in a wired manner, and connected to one or more other car light control modules in a wireless manner. This approach can not only save wiring harnesses, but also ensure that when wireless communication is not available, the car light control is achieved through a wired manner, avoiding the situation where the car lights cannot be controlled.

[0083] In this application, when the vehicle is powered on, it is determined whether the wireless communication method between the MCU and the headlight control module is available; when the wireless communication method is available, it is determined that the communication method with the headlight control module is the wireless communication method; when the wireless communication method is not available, it is determined that the communication method with the headlight control module is the wired communication method. In this way, when the wireless communication method is available, the wireless communication method can be used for connection first.

[0084] Poll multiple preset caches in the MCU to determine whether there is a free cache; when there is a free cache, send the control instruction to the first cache in the idle state through the MCU; use the first cache as the sending cache to send the control instruction to the headlight control module; while sending the control instruction to the headlight control module through the first cache, read the next control instruction from the control queue through the MCU; send the next control instruction in the control queue to the second cache in the idle state through the MCU, until there is no free cache in the multiple preset caches or all control instructions in the control queue are read.

[0085] Assume that there are two preset caches. For example, the pointer of the send cache points to the first cache, and the pointer of the free cache points to the second cache. At this time, the send cache keeps sending the data in the cache in a loop, and the free cache updates the data in the cache by reading the data in the script. When the next send cycle is reached, the pointers of the send cache and the free cache are exchanged. The pointer of the send cache points to the second cache with updated data, and starts to send data. The free cache pointer points to the first cache and updates the data. The double cache method can improve the efficiency of data sending and updating, and ensure that data sending and updating are carried out synchronously.

[0086] After the double buffer switching is completed, the sending buffer starts to send data, and the sending buffer will continue to send data in a loop until the next cycle arrives to ensure that all signals are transmitted in place.

[0087] The beneficial effect of the present application is that the MCU can interact with the headlight control module through wireless communication, so that the headlights can be controlled through wireless communication, without the need for interaction and control through CAN communication, thereby reducing the development cost of the ambient light and the cost of the entire vehicle wiring harness. Secondly, in the present application, by setting up multiple caches, when communicating with the headlight control module through wireless communication, the control instructions can be read from the control instruction queue, and then the control instructions can be sent alternately to different caches. In this way, data transmission and data update can be carried out at the same time, without waiting for the data to be sent before updating the data. Therefore, while reducing the development cost and the cost of the entire vehicle wiring harness, the control efficiency of the vehicle is also improved.

[0088] In one embodiment, the method can also be implemented as the following steps A1-A2:

[0089] In step A1, when a preset event is detected, a control instruction is generated;

[0090] In step A2, the generated control instruction is stored in a control queue.

[0091] In one embodiment, the method can also be implemented as the following steps B1-B3:

[0092] In step B1, when the vehicle is powered on, it is determined whether the wireless communication method between the MCU and the vehicle light control module is available;

[0093] In step B2, when the wireless communication method is available, determining that the communication method with the vehicle light control module is the wireless communication method;

[0094] In step B3, when the wireless communication mode is not available, it is determined that the communication mode with the vehicle light control module is the wired communication mode.

[0095] In one embodiment, the method can also be implemented as the following steps C1-C3:

[0096] In step C1, when the cache sends the same control instruction as the sending cache, the control instruction is sent to the vehicle light control module;

[0097] In step C2, when the data corresponding to the control instruction has been sent, it is determined whether the number of times the same control instruction has been sent has reached a maximum number;

[0098] In step C3, when the number of times the same control instruction is sent does not reach the maximum number, the control instruction is sent to the vehicle light control module again.

[0099] In this embodiment, when the sending cycle is specified, the maximum number of times may be the maximum number of times allowed to be sent within one data sending cycle.

[0100] In one embodiment, the step C1 can be implemented as the following steps D1-D4:

[0101] In step D1, the sending buffer sends data corresponding to the control instruction to the wireless communication module;

[0102] In step D2, after all the data corresponding to the control instruction are sent to the wireless communication module, the sending buffer sends a first trigger signal to the wireless communication module to inform the wireless communication module that the data has been sent;

[0103] In step D3, upon receiving the trigger signal, the wireless communication module sends the data corresponding to the control instruction to the vehicle light control module;

[0104] In step D4, after all the data corresponding to the control instruction are sent to the vehicle light control module, the wireless communication module sends a second trigger signal to the sending buffer to inform the sending buffer that the data corresponding to the control instruction has been sent.

[0105] In one embodiment, the method can also be implemented as the following steps:

[0106] After the sending buffer sends the control instruction to the vehicle light control module, the data of the plurality of preset buffers are synchronized.

[0107] In one embodiment, synchronizing the data of a plurality of preset caches includes:

[0108] The pointers of the sending buffer and the free buffer are exchanged to copy the data of the sending buffer to the free buffer.

[0109] Specifically, after the sending buffer sends the control instruction to the headlight control module, the sending buffer is notified to stop sending; wait for the sending buffer to complete sending; exchange the pointers of the sending buffer and the idle buffer; copy all the data in the sending buffer to the idle buffer to ensure the synchronization of the data in the two caches; determine whether there is an effect script currently running; read the data of the current frame of the current script from the storage chip; update the data of the current frame to the idle script; the current frame points to the next frame; and the process ends after all the running script data are updated.
