Description

[0002] In the prior art, the interior ambient light of a car mainly serves a decorative purpose.

The controller sends the corresponding ambient light color signal to the ambient light driver module according to the ambient signal, and the driver module controls the ambient light to switch to the corresponding color. The electronic rearview mirror of the car processes the collected road conditions through the camera, display screen, and controller and presents it on the display screen. Some electronic exterior rearview mirror products have distance measurement functions and can switch the icon color on the display screen to remind the driver to pay attention to the target behind.

[0028] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. This figure is a simplified schematic diagram, which only illustrates the basic structure of the present invention in a schematic manner, and therefore only shows the components related to the present invention.

[0029] Example 1 For ease of understanding, the following is an overall description of the invention concept before describing the embodiments of the present invention in detail: the electronic rearview mirror system collects side and rear vehicle information through a camera and sends it to the electronic rearview mirror system controller. The controller determines whether the side and rear vehicle has the intention to overtake with the help of a prediction algorithm based on the collected information, and sends the overtaking intention signal to the atmosphere light controller. The atmosphere light controller sends a flashing atmosphere light signal to the drive module, and the start module controls the atmosphere light on that side to flash red to alert the driver to pay attention to the side and rear vehicle. Specifically, after the vehicle is started, the electronic rearview mirror enters the working state, and the perception cameras fixed on both sides of the vehicle body are started and collect image information on both sides behind the vehicle; during driving, if there is a side and rear vehicle in one lane, the perception camera on that side of the vehicle captures the side and rear vehicle information, and then uses the image processing module in the electronic rearview mirror system controller to perform recognition processing, and calculates the longitudinal distance of the side and rear vehicle relative to the vehicle in real time. and the longitudinal acceleration of the vehicle behind ,speed ; The controller judges based on the collected information Whether the overtaking prediction range is reached .like < , it is judged whether the rear vehicle has the intention to overtake from the current moment within the time t = 0 ~ T; when the rear vehicle has the intention to overtake, the overtaking intention signal is sent to the atmosphere light controller in the atmosphere light system to make it judge whether the atmosphere light flashing condition is met, and if so, the red atmosphere light on that side is controlled to flash. On the one hand, the overtaking prediction algorithm in the electronic rearview mirror system can effectively judge whether the rear vehicle has the intention to overtake, thereby ensuring the safety of driving. On the other hand, by linking the electronic rearview mirror system and the atmosphere light system, the atmosphere light can be used for alarm prompts without using the warning light on the dashboard for alarm prompts, thus avoiding the unsafe behavior caused by the user's need to distract attention to observe the prompt information of the dashboard warning light during driving.

[0044] Preferably, step S12 further includes: when the second vehicle is located on the left side behind the first vehicle, the ambient light system controls the ambient light on the left side of the first vehicle to give a prompt in the first color; and / or when the second vehicle is located on the right side behind the first vehicle, the ambient light system controls the ambient light on the right side of the first vehicle to give a prompt in the first color. That is, in order to facilitate the user to intuitively observe whether there is a pre-overtaking vehicle on the left or right side behind, the alarm can be directly given by flashing a red light on the ambient light on the corresponding side of the first vehicle.

[0045] Preferably, the step S6: based on the longitudinal acceleration of the first vehicle and the speed of the first vehicle , calculate the predicted driving speed of the first vehicle within the prediction time Predicted driving distance include: ; ; The step S7: based on the longitudinal acceleration of the second vehicle and the speed of the second vehicle , calculate the predicted driving speed of the second vehicle within the prediction time Predicted driving distance include: ; ; Where t is the prediction time, , T is the total prediction time, The duration of each prediction.

[0049] That is, if all the conditions in the third judgment condition are met, the ambient light controller sends an ambient light flashing signal to the driving module, and the driving module controls the ambient light on that side of the first vehicle to flash red, alerting the driver to the vehicle coming from behind. It should be noted that the first color is not limited here, that is, the ambient light can also be controlled to flash green for prompting.

[0050] Preferably, the method further includes: S1204: obtaining the prompt duration of controlling the atmosphere light to prompt in the first color; S1205: when the prompt duration is greater than the preset first time threshold, if the conditions of step S1202 are not all met during the prompt process, controlling the atmosphere light to stop prompting. That is, if the conditions of step S1202 are not all met during the flashing process, the flashing is terminated, but the flashing duration must be greater than or equal to ,in, is the preset time threshold.
