Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of intelligent vehicle body control technology, and in particular to an intelligent vehicle body control method, device, system and storage medium based on a camping mode. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous development of society and the growing number of car consumers, the comfort and convenience of automobiles are becoming increasingly important. Smart unlocking, as a method of intelligent vehicle body control, is gaining widespread adoption. When the driver exits the vehicle with the key and closes all four doors, the vehicle automatically locates the key and automatically locks the vehicle upon detection. This feature offers a seamless, intelligent driving experience, eliminating the need for drivers to manually lock the vehicle by pulling the key from their bag, significantly improving the user experience.

[0003] To meet the outdoor activity needs of young smart car users, most smart cars now feature an outdoor camping mode. Due to the unique nature of outdoor camping, a vehicle serves not only as a means of transportation but also as a multifunctional center integrating entertainment, logistics, and rest, becoming the core of outdoor camping. Therefore, achieving intelligent body control in outdoor camping scenarios has created new requirements for intelligent unlocking and locking functions.

[0004] However, the existing intelligent unlocking function still has some shortcomings when applied to specific scenarios such as outdoor camping:

[0005] When the driver (key holder) and other passengers are near the vehicle, if all four doors are closed, the driver's frequent movements will repeatedly trigger the smart unlocking operation, affecting the user experience. Therefore, in the existing solution, the driver can only leave the key in the vehicle or keep the door open. When the user needs to temporarily leave the vehicle, they need to consciously look for the key before leaving the vehicle, otherwise the vehicle will not lock and arm, posing a risk of theft.

[0006] At the same time, when the driver is away from the vehicle, there may still be other passengers moving around the vehicle. If the driver takes the key away, other passengers may not be able to open the door, resulting in a poor user experience. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is that the present invention proposes an intelligent body control method, device, system and storage medium based on the camping mode. By optimizing the smart key search and locking strategy, the intelligent active locking function in the outdoor camping scenario is realized, thereby improving the user experience and ensuring the safety of the vehicle.

[0008] As one aspect of the present invention, a method for controlling an intelligent vehicle body based on a camping mode is provided, which comprises the following steps:

[0009] After receiving the command to enter camping mode, it starts the high-power key search mode to detect the real-time location of the smart remote control key;

[0010] Based on the detected real-time location of the smart remote control key, a pre-set smart vehicle body control strategy is selected to switch the search mode and determine whether the vehicle body needs to be locked and armed; wherein the location of the smart remote control key is within the effective area inside the vehicle, within the effective area outside the vehicle, and away from the effective area outside the vehicle;

[0011] Among them, when it is detected that the key leaves the valid area, if the door opening operation is detected within the predetermined timing period, the control will not lock the vehicle body; if the door opening operation is not detected within the predetermined timing period, the control will lock the vehicle body.

[0012] The method further includes selecting a preset intelligent vehicle body control strategy to switch the search mode according to the detected real-time position of the intelligent remote control key and determining whether the vehicle body needs to be locked and fortified.

[0013] In high-power key search mode, if the smart remote control key is detected in the valid area inside the vehicle, it will switch to key search prohibition mode and cancel the locking and arming operation;

[0014] If the smart remote control key is detected to be within the effective area outside the vehicle, the high-power key search mode is maintained, and after a first period of time, it switches to the key search prohibition mode and cancels the vehicle lock and arming operation; if the smart remote control key is detected to be away from the effective area outside the vehicle within the first period of time, it switches to the low-power key search mode and after a second period of time, performs the vehicle lock and arming operation;

[0015] If it is detected that the smart remote control key is away from the effective area outside the vehicle, it switches to low-power key search mode and performs a locking operation after a third period of time.

[0016] Among them, in the high-power key search mode, the key position inside and outside the car is searched at the same time, and the car's mobile phone wireless charging module (WCM) function is turned off;

[0017] In low-power key search mode, only the key location outside the vehicle is searched, and the vehicle's mobile phone wireless charging module (WCM) function is turned on;

[0018] In key search disable mode, stop searching for the key position and turn on the vehicle's mobile phone wireless charging module (WCM) function.

[0019] Among them, in the low-power key search mode, if it is detected that the key re-enters the valid area outside the vehicle, it returns to the high-power key search mode and resets the timer in the high-power key search mode;

[0020] In low-power key search mode, if a door opening operation is detected, the timer in low-power key search mode is reset;

[0021] In the low-power key search mode, if a door lock trigger operation is detected, the vehicle lock arming operation is performed.

[0022] The vehicle locking and defense operation includes controlling the door lock motor to close and activating the vehicle's safety system;

[0023] During the locked and armed phase, if the alarm is triggered, the vehicle controller (VCU) will cut off the vehicle's external discharge and send out an alarm signal through the lights and horn.

[0024] After receiving the command to enter camping mode, the high-power key search mode is started to detect the real-time location of the smart remote control key. Specifically:

[0025] After receiving the command to enter the camping mode, it monitors whether the vehicle doors are closed. When it is detected that the vehicle doors are all closed, the high-power consumption key search mode is started to detect the real-time position of the smart remote control key.

[0026] As another aspect of the present invention, there is also provided an intelligent vehicle body control device based on a camping mode, comprising:

[0027] The camping mode activation unit is used to activate the high-power key search mode and detect the real-time location of the smart remote control key after receiving the command to enter the camping mode and detecting that all vehicle doors are closed;

[0028] a locking logic execution unit, configured to select a pre-set intelligent vehicle body control strategy to switch to a search mode and determine whether to lock and arm the vehicle body based on the detected real-time location of the intelligent remote control key; wherein the location of the intelligent remote control key is within an effective area inside the vehicle, within an effective area outside the vehicle, or away from an effective area outside the vehicle;

[0029] Among them, when it is detected that the key leaves the valid area, if the door opening operation is detected within the predetermined timing period, the control will not lock the vehicle body; if the door opening operation is not detected within the predetermined timing period, the control will lock the vehicle body.

[0030] Wherein, the locking logic execution unit includes:

[0031] A first execution unit is configured to switch to a key search prohibition mode and cancel the locking and arming operation when the camping mode starting unit detects that the smart remote control key is located in a valid area inside the vehicle;

[0032] a second execution unit configured to maintain a high-power key search mode and switch to a key search prohibition mode after a first duration if the camping mode activation unit detects that the smart remote control key is located within the effective area outside the vehicle, and cancel the vehicle locking and arming operation; and if the smart remote control key is detected to be away from the effective area outside the vehicle within the first duration, switch to a low-power key search mode and perform the vehicle locking and arming operation for a second duration;

[0033] The third execution unit is used to switch to the low-power key search mode and perform a locking operation after a third time when the camping mode starting unit detects that the smart remote control key is away from the effective area outside the vehicle.

[0034] Among them, in the high-power key search mode, the key position inside and outside the car is searched at the same time, and the car's mobile phone wireless charging module (WCM) function is turned off;

[0035] In low-power key search mode, only the key location outside the vehicle is searched, and the vehicle's mobile phone wireless charging module (WCM) function is turned on;

[0036] In key search disable mode, stop searching for the key position and turn on the vehicle's mobile phone wireless charging module (WCM) function.

[0037] Among them, in the low-power key search mode, if it is detected that the key re-enters the valid area outside the vehicle, it returns to the high-power key search mode and resets the timer in the high-power key search mode;

[0038] In low-power key search mode, if a door opening operation is detected, the timer in low-power key search mode is reset;

[0039] In the low-power key search mode, if a door lock trigger operation is detected, the vehicle lock arming operation is performed.

[0040] The vehicle locking and defense operation includes controlling the door lock motor to close and activating the vehicle's safety system;

[0041] During the locked and armed phase, if the alarm is triggered, the vehicle controller (VCU) will cut off the vehicle's external discharge and send out an alarm signal through the lights and horn.

[0042] Accordingly, another aspect of the present invention further provides an intelligent vehicle body control system based on a camping mode, comprising:

[0043] An integrated body control module, configured to manage the execution logic for locking and arming the vehicle when the vehicle is in camping mode, and comprising the aforementioned intelligent body control device;

[0044] The intelligent central control host is used to send the camping mode activation command to the integrated body control module;

[0045] an intelligent detection antenna, comprising an in-vehicle antenna and an out-vehicle antenna, for periodically transmitting a signal at a preset frequency in response to a command from the integrated body control module to search for the location of the intelligent remote control key;

[0046] A radio frequency receiving module is used to analyze the position signal returned by the smart remote control key to determine the position of the smart remote control key;

[0047] Door detection switch, used to detect the open and closed status of the door and report the open and closed status signal to the integrated body control module;

[0048] Four-door lock motors, used to open and close the door locks according to the instructions of the integrated body control module;

[0049] The vehicle controller communicates with the integrated body control module and is used to cut off external power supply when an alarm occurs during the locking and arming phase.

[0050] Accordingly, as another aspect of the present invention, a computer-readable storage medium is provided, on which a computer program is stored. When the computer program is executed by a processor, the steps of the above-mentioned method are implemented.

[0051] The implementation of the embodiments of the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0052] This invention proposes a method, device, system, and storage medium for intelligent vehicle body control based on camping mode. In this embodiment, the intelligent locking control logic pre-stored in the integrated vehicle body control module is optimized for specific scenarios. This function addresses the two most common key usage conditions for outdoor camping, ultimately enabling intelligent and proactive vehicle locking and defense. This enables seamless vehicle body safety control and improves the user experience.

[0053] This invention utilizes intelligent locking control logic (when a key is detected to have left the valid zone, if someone opens the door within the timer, the vehicle is unlocked, allowing other keyless users to use the vehicle normally; if no one opens the door within the timer, the vehicle is locked). This allows for a combination of active and passive locking in keyless situations. This optimizes key search and locking strategies, reduces false positives and repeated triggering, and enhances the user experience in camping scenarios. Furthermore, it ensures automatic locking when the user is away for an extended period and no one is around, preventing theft and improving security. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0058] Figure 4 A more detailed flowchart of the method provided by the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0059] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clear, the present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0060] like Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of an embodiment of an intelligent vehicle body control system based on a camping mode provided by the present invention; in this embodiment, the intelligent vehicle body control system at least includes:

[0061] An integrated body control module (IBCM) manages the execution logic for vehicle arming and locking operations when the vehicle is in camping mode, including security status and key search mode.

[0062] Intelligent Hub Unit (IHU), which sends a camping mode activation command to the integrated body control module;

[0063] An intelligent detection antenna, including an in-vehicle antenna and an external antenna, is configured to periodically transmit signals at a preset frequency in response to instructions from the integrated body control module to search for the location of the intelligent remote control key; specifically, the intelligent detection antenna may transmit electromagnetic waves at 125 kHz for key search, and its transmission period may be, for example, once every 500 ms or once every 750 ms;

[0064] The radio frequency receiver (RFR) is used to analyze the location signal returned by the smart remote key to determine its location. It is understood that when the smart remote key receives a 125KHz key search signal, it immediately sends a 433.92MHz electromagnetic wave signal, which is received by the radio frequency receiver (RFR). After receiving the key location signal, the RFR transmits it to the IBCM via the private LIN line.

[0065] A door detection switch, used to detect the open / closed state of the door and report the open / closed state signal to the integrated body control module; specifically, the door detection switch may be, for example, a door ajar switch;

[0066] Four-door lock motors, used to open and close the door locks according to the instructions of the integrated body control module;

[0067] The vehicle controller communicates with the integrated body control module and is used to cut off external power supply when an alarm occurs during the locking and arming phase;

[0068] The car's mobile phone wireless charging module (WCM) is used to wirelessly charge the car's mobile phone. Its charging signal may interfere with the electromagnetic wave signal sent by the smart remote control key.

[0069] In this embodiment, the specific details of the functions of the integrated body control module (IBCM) are described below in conjunction with Figure 2 Provide a detailed description.

[0070] like Figure 2 FIG. 1 shows a schematic diagram of the structure of an embodiment of an intelligent vehicle body control device based on a camping mode provided by the present invention; in this embodiment, the intelligent vehicle body control device 1 is deployed in Figure 1 Specifically, the intelligent vehicle body control device 1 based on the camping mode includes at least:

[0071] The camping mode activation unit 10 is configured to, upon receiving a command to enter the camping mode, monitor whether all four vehicle doors are closed. When all four vehicle doors are detected to be closed, the unit activates a high-power key search mode to detect the real-time location of the smart remote control key. The location of the smart remote control key can be within a valid area inside the vehicle, within a valid area outside the vehicle, or away from a valid area outside the vehicle.

[0072] Specifically, after the IBCM detects that all four vehicle doors are closed, it uses a hard-wired intelligent detection antenna to transmit 125kHz electromagnetic waves for key search. Upon receiving the 125kHz key search signal, the remote key immediately transmits a 433.92MHz electromagnetic wave signal, which is received by the Radio Frequency Receiver (RFR). The RFR receives the key location signal and transmits it back to the IBCM via a private LIN line. Upon receiving this signal, the IBCM determines the real-time location of the remote key. In this embodiment, if the IBCN cannot detect the real-time location of the remote key, it can be determined to be located outside the vehicle's effective area.

[0073] The locking logic execution unit 11 is used to select a preset intelligent vehicle body control strategy to switch the search mode according to the detected real-time position of the intelligent remote control key, and determine whether the vehicle body needs to be locked and fortified;

[0074] In this embodiment, when it is detected that the key has left the valid area, if a door opening operation is detected within a predetermined time period, the vehicle body is not locked or fortified; if no door opening operation is detected within the predetermined time period, the vehicle body is locked or fortified. More specifically, the locking logic execution unit 11 further includes:

[0075] The first execution unit 110 is configured to switch to a key search prohibition mode and cancel the locking and arming operation when the camping mode starting unit detects that the smart remote control key is located in a valid area inside the vehicle;

[0076] The second execution unit 111 is configured to maintain a high-power key search mode and, after a first time period (e.g., 10 minutes) if the camping mode activation unit detects that the smart remote control key is within the effective area outside the vehicle, switch to a key search disable mode and cancel the vehicle locking and arming operation; if the smart remote control key is detected to be away from the effective area outside the vehicle within the first time period, switch to a low-power key search mode and perform the vehicle locking and arming operation for a second time period (e.g., 30 minutes);

[0077] The third execution unit 112 is configured to switch to a low-power key search mode and perform a locking operation after a third time (eg, 10 minutes) when the camping mode start unit detects that the smart remote control key is away from the effective area outside the vehicle.

[0078] In a specific example, in high-power key search mode, the key position inside and outside the car is searched simultaneously, and the car's mobile phone wireless charging module (WCM) function is disabled; in a specific example, in high-power key search mode, the search is performed every 500ms, and the smart detection antennas inside and outside the car start working simultaneously. The IBCM can know in real time whether the legitimate key is within the effective detection area inside and outside the car. In addition, during the key search, the WCM function must be actively blocked to prevent the key from being placed directly above the WCM, resulting in the key position being unable to be identified and affecting the key search function.

[0079] In low-power key search mode, only the location of the key outside the vehicle is searched, and the vehicle's wireless charging module (WCM) function is enabled. In a specific example, in low-power key search mode, the search is performed every 750ms. The smart detection antenna inside the vehicle stops working, while the smart detection antenna outside the vehicle remains working. The IBCM can know in real time whether the legitimate key is within the effective detection area outside the vehicle. In addition, the WCM function is not disabled during the key search.

[0080] In key search disable mode, the search for the key position is stopped and the vehicle's mobile phone wireless charging module (WCM) function is enabled. Specifically, in this mode, the IBCM does not disable the WCM function because the key search function is stopped.

[0081] In an embodiment of the present invention, in the low-power key search mode, if it is detected that the key re-enters the valid area outside the vehicle, the system returns to the high-power key search mode and resets the timer in the high-power key search mode;

[0082] In low-power key search mode, if a door opening operation is detected, the timer in low-power key search mode is reset;

[0083] In the low-power key search mode, if a locking trigger operation on the vehicle door is detected (such as the timer time is reached, or the user long presses the door handle sensor), the vehicle locking and arming operation is executed.

[0084] In a specific example, the vehicle locking and arming operation includes controlling the closing of the door lock motor and starting the vehicle's safety system; during the locking and arming stage, if the alarm is triggered, the vehicle controller (VCU) cuts off the vehicle's external discharge and sends an alarm signal through the lights and horn.

[0085] It is understood that in the embodiments of the present invention, the integrated body control module (IBCM) plays a core management and implementation role in the vehicle control logic in camping mode. As a key component of the intelligent body control system, the IBCM is responsible for receiving input signals from sensor systems (such as door AJAR switches and smart detection antennas), processing them according to preset algorithms and logic, and ultimately issuing control commands to actuators (such as the four-door lock motors and the onboard mobile phone wireless charging module).

[0086] In Camping Mode, the IBCM pays special attention to the key's location and vehicle security status. It uses a smart detection antenna to send low-frequency electromagnetic waves to search for the smart remote key and uses the returned high-frequency signal to determine whether the key is within the vehicle's range. The IBCM also monitors the status of the vehicle doors and user actions to determine when to start or stop the key search and when to perform automatic locking operations.

[0087] like Figure 3 As shown, a schematic diagram of the main process of an embodiment of an intelligent vehicle body control method based on a camping mode provided by the present invention is shown; in this embodiment, it adopts the following Figure 1 、 Figure 2 Specifically, the intelligent vehicle body control method includes the following steps:

[0088] Step S10: After receiving the command to enter the camping mode and detecting that all four doors of the vehicle are closed, starting the high-power key search mode to detect the real-time location of the smart remote control key;

[0089] Step S11, selecting a pre-set intelligent vehicle body control strategy to switch to a search mode based on the detected real-time location of the intelligent remote control key, and determining whether to lock and arm the vehicle body; wherein the location of the intelligent remote control key is located in an effective area inside the vehicle, within an effective area outside the vehicle, or away from an effective area outside the vehicle;

[0090] In this embodiment, when it is detected that the key has left the valid area, if a door opening operation is detected within a predetermined timing period, the control is to not lock and arm the vehicle body; if no door opening operation is detected within the predetermined timing period, the control is to lock and arm the vehicle body.

[0091] More specifically, in the high-power key search mode, if the smart remote control key is detected to be in the valid area inside the vehicle, it switches to the key search prohibition mode and cancels the locking and arming operation;

[0092] If the smart remote control key is detected to be within the effective area outside the vehicle, the high-power key search mode is maintained, and after a first period of time, it switches to the key search prohibition mode and cancels the vehicle lock and arming operation; if the smart remote control key is detected to be away from the effective area outside the vehicle within the first period of time, it switches to the low-power key search mode and after a second period of time, performs the vehicle lock and arming operation;

[0093] If it is detected that the smart remote control key is away from the effective area outside the vehicle, it switches to low-power key search mode and performs a locking operation after a third period of time.

[0094] In a specific example, in the high-power key search mode, the key locations inside and outside the car are searched simultaneously, and the vehicle's mobile phone wireless charging module (WCM) function is turned off;

[0095] In low-power key search mode, only the key location outside the vehicle is searched, and the vehicle's mobile phone wireless charging module (WCM) function is turned on;

[0096] In key search disable mode, stop searching for the key position and turn on the vehicle's mobile phone wireless charging module (WCM) function.

[0097] In a specific example, in the low-power key search mode, if it is detected that the key re-enters the valid area outside the vehicle, the system returns to the high-power key search mode and resets the timer in the high-power key search mode;

[0098] In low-power key search mode, if a door opening operation is detected, the timer in low-power key search mode is reset;

[0099] In the low-power key search mode, if a door lock trigger operation is detected, the vehicle lock arming operation is performed.

[0100] In a specific example, the vehicle locking and arming operation includes controlling a door lock motor to close and activating a vehicle security system;

[0101] During the locked and armed phase, if the alarm is triggered, the vehicle controller (VCU) will cut off the vehicle's external discharge and send out an alarm signal through the lights and horn.

[0102] For more details, please refer to the above Figure 1 and Figure 2 Description.

[0103] In order to further understand the method provided by the present invention, the following Figure 4 The details of the method according to the present invention will be described.

[0104] exist Figure 4 In the example shown, the following steps are included:

[0105] (1) IBCM can determine the open and closed status of the four doors by collecting the door AJAR switches of the four doors. When it is detected that the four doors are closed, it enters the high-power key search mode. Start several consecutive (such as three) key searches inside and outside the vehicle; it can be understood that in this embodiment, the key search mode is not started when the door is not closed, so as to reduce unnecessary energy consumption and avoid the vehicle being locked by mistake when it is not completely closed. At the same time, the use of three consecutive searches is a preliminary screening process in the high-power key search mode, which is used to initialize the key position detection process and is interrelated with the subsequent low-power key search mode and control strategy.

[0106] (2) If a legitimate key is found in the valid area inside the vehicle, the IBCM enters the key search disable mode, restores the WCM function, and the vehicle is not locked; it is understandable that when a legitimate key is left in the vehicle, the IBCM detects that the key is in the valid area inside the vehicle and controls the vehicle not to be locked, so as to avoid the embarrassing situation of the owner being locked out of the vehicle due to forgetting the key.

[0107] (3) If a legitimate key is found outside the vehicle, the IBCM will maintain the "high power consumption key search mode" and start a 10-minute timer. During the 10-minute timer, if the key remains outside the vehicle, indicating that the owner is always near the vehicle, the WCM will remain in the disabled state and the vehicle will not lock. When the 10-minute timer ends, the IBCM will enter the key search disabled mode, restore the WCM function, and the vehicle will not lock.

[0108] If the legitimate key is detected to have disappeared (away from the valid area) within 10 minutes, the IBCM will enter the "low-power key search mode" and start a 30-minute timer: if the key is found to have entered the valid area again within 30 minutes, it will return to the 10-minute "high-power key search mode" state; if the car door is opened within 30 minutes, the 30-minute timer will be restarted; if the 30-minute timer ends or the door handle switch is long pressed within 30 minutes, the lock arming stage will be executed.

[0109] It is understandable that when the user (key holder) leaves the vehicle for a long time (for example, to go hiking or have a picnic), the 30-minute timer is used to determine whether the user has actually left, and in this case, triggers the vehicle to lock. By setting a longer timing time, it can be ensured that the vehicle can automatically lock when the user actually leaves and will not return immediately, thereby enhancing the safety of the vehicle. In a specific example, the user takes the key to go hiking and is expected to return in 1 hour. After leaving the vehicle, the vehicle starts a 30-minute timer. During this period, if the vehicle detects that the key signal reappears (for example, the user returns to pick up something halfway), the timer will be reset. If the key signal does not appear within 30 minutes and no door is opened, the vehicle will automatically lock after the timing ends to ensure vehicle safety.

[0110] Furthermore, setting "Restart the 30-minute timer" in this step provides a "grace period" or "delay" for drivers to leave the vehicle briefly (e.g., to retrieve something, talk to someone), without having to worry about the vehicle immediately entering the locked and armed state. If the driver opens the door (whether through normal operation or other means) during this period, this typically indicates that the driver may return to the vehicle or require further vehicle access. Therefore, the system will reset the original 30-minute timer and restart the countdown from the beginning. For example, suppose a driver is waiting for someone at the vehicle but is worried about forgetting to lock the vehicle, so they activate the vehicle's automatic locking function. However, 20 minutes into the wait, the driver needs to enter the vehicle to retrieve an item. When the driver opens and closes the door again, the IBCM detects this action and automatically cancels the previously elapsed 20 minutes, restarting the 30-minute countdown. This gives the driver more time to complete their tasks without having to worry about the vehicle immediately locking.

[0111] In addition, performing the locking and arming operation after the 30-minute timer ends can ensure that the vehicle can automatically enter the locked and arming state when the owner actually leaves the vehicle and has no intention of further operation, thereby improving the safety of the vehicle.

[0112] The owner can also clearly express his intention to leave and lock the vehicle by long pressing the door handle switch (sensor) within 30 minutes. The IBCM will then execute the locking and arming phase and activate the vehicle's safety protection function.

[0113] (4) If no valid key is found in either the valid area inside or outside the vehicle, the IBCM enters "Low Power Key Search Mode" and starts a 10-minute timer. If a valid key is found again in the valid area outside the vehicle within 10 minutes, the IBCM re-enters "High Power Key Search Mode" and starts a 10-minute timer, maintaining the same strategy as in step (3). If the 10-minute timer expires, the IBCM enters Key Search Disable Mode, resuming WCM functionality and preventing the vehicle from locking.

[0114] (5) When an alarm is triggered during the locked and armed phase, the VCU is instructed to cut off external power while the lights and horn sound. In the event of illegal intrusion or abnormal operation of the vehicle, the alarm system (lights and horn) promptly notifies the owner and surrounding personnel, acting as a deterrent. Furthermore, when an alarm is triggered during the armed phase, external power is cut off to prevent unauthorized use of the vehicle and energy waste.

[0115] As can be seen from the above description, the implementation of the present invention demonstrates a balance between security and user experience in the IBCM system. By utilizing a low-power key search mode and a timer, the system maintains a level of alertness when a key is out of range while also preventing unnecessary inconvenience to the vehicle owner should they be unaware of the key's loss. Furthermore, restoring the WCM function ensures basic vehicle operability and a consistent user experience.

[0116] This invention solves two common working conditions in outdoor camping scenarios at the same time (users frequently move around in the car or nearby areas, and users move around away from the vehicle), and ultimately can successfully lock the car intelligently and actively, bringing customers a good user experience. It is understandable that under the two different vehicle use conditions, the owner's anti-theft requirements for the vehicle are different: when the user is moving around in the area near the vehicle, the vehicle does not need to be locked for anti-theft, meeting the user's frequent needs for getting on and off the vehicle; however, when the owner needs to move away from the vehicle for a long time (light hiking, fishing), people traveling with the owner may still move around the vehicle, and on the one hand, it is necessary to facilitate activities near the vehicle without being affected; on the other hand, when no one is moving around the vehicle, the vehicle needs to be locked for anti-theft to reduce the risk of theft, while monitoring the surrounding environment, promptly cutting off external discharge, and ensuring outdoor power safety. The present invention can well meet the needs of the above two common working conditions.

[0117] As another aspect of the present invention, a computer-readable storage medium is provided on which a computer program is stored. When the computer program is executed by a processor, the computer program can achieve the following Figure 3 and Figure 4 For more details, please refer to the above Figure 3 and Figure 4 The description is not repeated here.

[0118] The implementation of the embodiments of the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0119] This invention proposes a method, device, system, and storage medium for intelligent vehicle body control based on camping mode. In this embodiment, the intelligent locking control logic pre-stored in the integrated vehicle body control module is optimized for specific scenarios. This function addresses the two most common key usage conditions for outdoor camping, ultimately enabling intelligent and proactive vehicle locking and defense. This enables seamless vehicle body safety control and improves the user experience.

[0120] This invention utilizes intelligent locking control logic (when a key is detected to have left the valid zone, if someone opens the door within the timer, the vehicle is unlocked, allowing other keyless users to use the vehicle normally; if no one opens the door within the timer, the vehicle is locked). This allows for a combination of active and passive locking in keyless situations. This optimizes key search and locking strategies, reduces false positives and repeated triggering, and enhances the user experience in camping scenarios. Furthermore, it ensures automatic locking when the user is away for an extended period and no one is around, preventing theft and improving security.

[0121] The present invention is described with reference to flowcharts and / or block diagrams of methods, devices (systems), and computer program products according to embodiments of the present invention. It should be understood that each process and / or block in the flowcharts and / or block diagrams, as well as combinations of processes and / or blocks in the flowcharts and / or block diagrams, can be implemented by computer program instructions. These computer program instructions can be provided to a processor of a general-purpose computer, a special-purpose computer, an embedded processor, or other programmable data processing device to produce a machine, so that the instructions executed by the processor of the computer or other programmable data processing device generate instructions for implementing the processes in the flowcharts and / or block diagrams.

[0122] The above disclosure is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and certainly cannot be used to limit the scope of the present invention. Therefore, equivalent changes made according to the claims of the present invention are still within the scope of the present invention.
