[0030] In the field of automobile technology, driving safety is always the primary problem of automobile driving, among which weather phenomena and road conditions are the key problems affecting driving safety. Especially in the presence of road water, the splashing water caused by the side car when it rushes through the car; the splashing water covering the windshield of the vehicle will cause the driver's vision to be blocked; when the area of the splashing water covering the windshield is large enough, it will cause the driver to be momentarily blinded.

[0031] In the case of loss of driving vision, the driver is easy to lose control of driving, therefore, an urgent need for a splashing water warning method to solve the above problems.

[0032] The embodiments provided by the present application will be described below with reference to the drawings.

[0033] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 A flowchart of a water splashing early warning method provided by an embodiment of the present application is shown in FIG. 1. The water splashing early warning method comprises steps S110-S140.

[0034] S110, obtaining environmental perception information of the first vehicle, the environmental perception information comprising side vehicle perception information and road perception information.

[0035] The side vehicle perception information refers to information of a side vehicle of the first vehicle perceived by the first vehicle. For example, the side vehicle perception information can comprise the position, size, and motion state (such as speed, motion direction, and acceleration) of the side vehicle of the first vehicle. The side vehicle of the first vehicle refers to another vehicle close to the first vehicle in position, or another vehicle in the vicinity of the first vehicle. For example, the side vehicle of the first vehicle can be a vehicle in the adjacent lane of the lane where the first vehicle is located, and the distance between the vehicle and the first vehicle is less than a distance threshold.

[0036] The road perception information refers to road information of the road where the first vehicle is located. The road perception information can comprise the road type and the water depth of the road.

[0037] In some embodiments, the environmental perception information of the first vehicle can be obtained by collecting external data through a collection device installed on the first vehicle and processing the collected external data through a processor. The collection device can be, for example, a laser radar, a camera, a millimeter wave radar, etc. The position and motion state of the side vehicle can be calculated through point cloud data collected by the laser radar. The road type and the water depth of the road can be calculated through image data collected by the camera.

[0038] S120, identifying whether the first vehicle is in a potential water splashing scenario according to the side vehicle perception information, the road perception information, and vehicle information of the first vehicle.

[0039] It can be understood that, for the first vehicle, the first vehicle being in a potential water splashing scenario means that water splashing caused by the side vehicle can act on the first vehicle. That is, the water splashing caused by the side vehicle can splash onto the front windshield of the first vehicle. Generally, the deeper the water depth on the road, the higher the speed of the side vehicle, and the more likely the water splashing caused by the side vehicle to splash onto the first vehicle.

[0040] In some embodiments, the side vehicle perception information comprises the speed and motion direction of the side vehicle of the first vehicle; the road perception information comprises the water depth of the road where the side vehicle of the first vehicle is located; and the vehicle information of the first vehicle comprises the speed and motion direction of the first vehicle. Step S120 can comprise the following ① and ②:

[0041] If the side vehicle is located behind the first vehicle, the movement direction of the side vehicle is the same as the movement direction of the first vehicle, the speed of the side vehicle is greater than the speed of the first vehicle, and the water depth exceeds the depth threshold corresponding to the road grade to which the road belongs, it is determined that the first vehicle is in a potential splashing water scenario.

[0042] In the case where the water depth of the road exceeds the depth threshold corresponding to the road grade to which the road belongs, and the speed of the side vehicle is greater than the speed of the first vehicle, it means that the side vehicle has a large enough speed to cause splashing water. At the same time, in the case where the side vehicle is located behind the first vehicle, the movement direction of the side vehicle is the same as the movement direction of the first vehicle, and the speed of the side vehicle is greater than the speed of the first vehicle, it means that the side vehicle will gradually catch up with the first vehicle in a future period of time, thereby shortening the distance between the side vehicle and the first vehicle until the side vehicle exceeds the first vehicle. In the above process, when the distance between the side vehicle and the first vehicle is close enough, the splashing water caused by the side vehicle can act on the first vehicle, and therefore it can be determined that the first vehicle is in a potential splashing water scenario.

[0043] If the side vehicle is located in front of the first vehicle, the movement direction of the side vehicle is opposite to the movement direction of the first vehicle, the speed of the side vehicle is greater than the speed threshold, and the water depth exceeds the depth threshold corresponding to the road grade to which the road belongs, it is determined that the first vehicle is in a potential splashing water scenario.

[0044] Similarly, in the case where the water depth of the road exceeds the depth threshold corresponding to the road grade to which the road belongs, and the speed of the side vehicle is greater than the speed threshold, it means that the side vehicle has a large enough speed to cause splashing water. At the same time, in the case where the side vehicle is located in front of the first vehicle, the movement direction of the side vehicle is opposite to the movement direction of the first vehicle, it means that the side vehicle and the first vehicle will probably intersect in the future, and the distance between the side vehicle and the first vehicle is close when the vehicles intersect, so the splashing water caused by the side vehicle can act on the first vehicle, and therefore it can be determined that the first vehicle is in a potential splashing water scenario.

[0045] In other embodiments, in the case where the water depth exceeds the depth threshold corresponding to the road grade to which the road belongs, the side vehicle is located behind the first vehicle, and the movement direction of the side vehicle is the same as the movement direction of the first vehicle, the acceleration of the side vehicle can also be used to determine whether the first vehicle is in a potential splashing water scenario. If the acceleration of the side vehicle is greater than the acceleration of the first vehicle, it is determined that the first vehicle is in a potential splashing water scenario.

[0046] For the convenience of understanding the above steps, please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 The relative position of the first vehicle and the side vehicle of the first vehicle is shown in the following figure. In Figure 2 , Figure a shows a schematic diagram of the relative position of the first vehicle C1 and the side vehicle C2 when they travel in the same direction, Figure 2Fig. 1a illustrates a schematic diagram of the positions of the first vehicle C1 and the side vehicle C2 at a time T0 and at a time T1 after the time T0. At the time T0, the side vehicle C2 is behind the first vehicle C1. If there is water on the road in front of the position of the side vehicle C2 at the time T0, and the speed v2 of the side vehicle C2 is greater than the speed v1 of the first vehicle C1, or the acceleration a2 of the side vehicle C2 is greater than the acceleration a1 of the first vehicle C1, the distance between the first vehicle C1 and the side vehicle C2 gradually shortens after a short time, and the splashing water caused by the side vehicle C2 can act on the first vehicle C1 during the process from the time T0 to the time T1. Therefore, it is determined that the first vehicle C1 is in a potential splashing water scenario at the time T0.

[0047] Similarly, Figure 2 Fig. 1b illustrates a schematic diagram of the relative positions of the first vehicle C1 and the side vehicle C2 when the first vehicle C1 and the side vehicle C2 are driving towards each other, Figure 2 Fig. 1a illustrates a schematic diagram of the positions of the first vehicle C1 and the side vehicle C2 at a time T0 and at a time T1 after the time T0. At the time T0, the side vehicle C2 is behind the first vehicle C1. If there is water on the road in front of the position of the side vehicle C2 at the time T0, and the speed v2 of the side vehicle C2 is greater than the speed v1 of the first vehicle C1, or the acceleration a2 of the side vehicle C2 is greater than the acceleration a1 of the first vehicle C1, the distance between the first vehicle C1 and the side vehicle C2 gradually shortens after a short time, and the splashing water caused by the side vehicle C2 can act on the first vehicle C1 during the process from the time T0 to the time T1. Therefore, it is determined that the first vehicle C1 is in a potential splashing water scenario at the time T0.

[0048] It should be noted that the first vehicle being in a potential splashing water scenario does not mean that the first vehicle must have a driving blinding risk; but the first vehicle not being in a potential splashing water scenario means that the first vehicle must not have a driving blinding risk caused by splashing water.

[0049] S130, if it is identified that the first vehicle is in a potential splashing water scenario, the driving blinding risk of the first vehicle caused by the splashing water caused by the side vehicle in the future is evaluated according to the side vehicle perception information, the road perception information and the vehicle information of the first vehicle, to obtain a risk evaluation result.

[0050] The risk evaluation result is used to indicate whether the first vehicle has a driving blinding risk caused by the splashing water caused by the side vehicle in the future.

[0051] In some implementations, the presence of a risk of blindness can be determined based on the degree to which water splashes caused by a neighboring vehicle obstruct the driver's field of vision of the first vehicle. For example, if the degree of obstruction of the driver's field of vision caused by water splashes caused by a neighboring vehicle is greater than an obstruction threshold, it is determined that there is a risk of blindness; if the degree of obstruction of the driver's field of vision caused by water splashes caused by a neighboring vehicle is not greater than an obstruction threshold, it is determined that there is no risk of blindness.

[0052] In some implementations, please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 The embodiments provided in this application are given Figure 1 A flowchart of step S130 is shown. Step S130 includes steps S131-S133:

[0053] S131. Based on the vehicle perception information and road perception information, determine the area range parameters of the water splash area that the vehicle next to the first vehicle will cause in the future.

[0054] The area range parameter of the splash zone is used to determine the location and size of the splash zone.

[0055] In some implementations, the vehicle perception information includes the vehicle's position and speed; the road perception information includes the water depth on the road where the vehicle is located; the area parameters of the splash zone include the relative boundary distance of the splash zone with respect to the target reference point and the size parameters of the splash zone, where the target reference point is the projection of the center point of the vehicle on the road when the vehicle causes the splash zone; step S131 may specifically include step one and step two:

[0056] Step 1: Determine the size parameters of the splashing area caused by the adjacent vehicle based on the speed of the adjacent vehicle and the depth of the water on the road where the adjacent vehicle is located.

[0057] In this application, the water splash area caused by the vehicle next to the first vehicle is a three-dimensional area. In reality, the water splash area is an irregular three-dimensional area. For ease of calculation, the water splash area is equivalent to a cubic area. Therefore, the size parameters of the water splash area include the lateral width (the width in the direction perpendicular to the direction of movement of the vehicle next to it), the longitudinal length (the length in the direction of movement of the vehicle next to it), and the vertical height.

[0058] In some embodiments, road tests can be performed in advance to collect multiple sets of test data, wherein each set of test data includes the speed of the passing vehicle, the depth of the accumulated water, and the size parameter of the splashing water area (the size parameter of the cuboid region after the splashing water area is equivalent to a cuboid region). Then, data fitting is performed on the multiple sets of test data to obtain a functional expression of the size parameter with respect to the speed and the depth of the accumulated water, i.e., the size parameter D of the splashing water area = f(v, H), where D represents the size parameter of the splashing water area, v represents the speed of the passing vehicle, and H represents the depth of the accumulated water.

[0059] In other embodiments, road tests can also be performed on roads of different road grades, and each set of test data includes the road grade, the speed of the passing vehicle, the depth of the accumulated water, and the size parameter of the splashing water area. Then, data fitting is performed on the multiple sets of test data to obtain a functional expression of the size parameter with respect to the road grade, the speed, and the depth of the accumulated water, i.e., the size parameter D of the splashing water area = f(v, H, R), where D represents the size parameter of the splashing water area, v represents the speed of the passing vehicle, H represents the depth of the accumulated water, and R represents the road grade parameter.

[0060] Step two, determining the relative boundary distance of the splashing water area with respect to the target reference point according to the target reference point and the size parameter of the splashing water area.

[0061] The target reference point refers to the position point on the road where the center point of the passing vehicle is projected when the passing vehicle causes the splashing water area.

[0062] In some embodiments, the vehicle position data (such as the front end position and the rear end position of the passing vehicle) and the motion data (such as the speed and the acceleration) of the passing vehicle at the current time can be collected by the first vehicle. Then, the vehicle position data of the passing vehicle when it causes splashing water in the future is predicted according to the vehicle position data and the motion data collected at the current time, and the position point of the center point of the passing vehicle when it causes splashing water in the future is determined in combination with the preset vehicle center point proportion parameter, so as to determine the target reference point.

[0063] The relative boundary distance of the splashing water area with respect to the target reference point refers to the distance from each boundary of the splashing water area to the target reference point.

[0064] It can be understood that the position of the splashing water area can be determined through the target reference point and the relative boundary distance, and the area size of the splashing water area can be determined through the size parameter of the splashing water area. Therefore, the splashing water area can be uniquely determined through the target reference point, the relative boundary distance of the splashing water area with respect to the target reference point, and the size parameter of the splashing water area.

[0065] For example, please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4 A schematic diagram of the splashing water area related to the embodiments of the present application is given.

[0066] wherein, Figure 4 An exemplary schematic diagram of the projection of the splashing area of the side vehicle on the ground is given in FIG. 17B, wherein D0 is the center point of the side vehicle, i.e., the target reference point, and the irregular area framed by the dashed line is the splashing area determined based on the speed of the side vehicle and the water depth on the road where the side vehicle is located. For the purpose of simplifying the calculation, the irregular splashing area is simplified as a minimum circumscribed cube tangent to the outer contour thereof, and correspondingly, the projection of the splashing area on the ground is a rectangle D.

[0067] Figure 4 An exemplary schematic diagram of the projection of the simplified splashing area on the ground is given in FIG. 18B, wherein the arrow direction indicates the moving direction of the side vehicle, DW is the length of the splashing area D in the driving direction, i.e., the longitudinal length, DL is the length of the splashing area D in the direction perpendicular to the driving direction, i.e., the transverse length, l represents half of the transverse length DL, wf is the first boundary distance between the first transverse boundary f of the splashing area D and the target reference point, and wr is the second boundary distance between the second transverse boundary r of the splashing area D and the target reference point, wherein the first transverse boundary f is located before the second transverse boundary r in the moving direction of the side vehicle.

[0068] S132, determining the degree of occlusion of the splashing area to the driving field of view area of the first vehicle according to the area range parameter of the splashing area and the vehicle information of the first vehicle.

[0069] It is worth mentioning that although the driving field of view area of the first vehicle is relatively fixed relative to the position of the first vehicle, in the world coordinate system, the position of the driving field of view area of the first vehicle in the world coordinate system can change with the movement of the first vehicle.

[0070] It is worth mentioning that in step S132, the position of the driving field of view area of the first vehicle refers to the position of the driving field of view area of the first vehicle at the time when the side vehicle will cause splashing in the future.

[0071] In some embodiments, the area proportion of the occluded area of the splashing area to the entire front windshield of the first vehicle can be taken as the degree of occlusion of the splashing area to the driving field of view area of the first vehicle, and further, when the area proportion exceeds a proportion threshold, the degree of occlusion can be determined as a blinding degree of occlusion, otherwise, as a non-blinding degree of occlusion.

[0072] In some embodiments, the degree of obstruction includes a blinding obstruction degree and a non-blinding obstruction degree; if the degree of obstruction is the blinding obstruction degree, the risk assessment result is determined as a result indicating that the splashing water caused by the side vehicle poses a driving blinding risk to the first vehicle.

[0073] The critical blinding field of view region refers to a specified region in the front windshield that affects the driver's field of view, for example, a region in the front windshield directly facing the driver's seat.

[0074] S133, determining a risk assessment result according to the degree of obstruction.

[0075] In some embodiments, the degree of obstruction includes a blinding obstruction degree and a non-blinding obstruction degree; if the degree of obstruction is the blinding obstruction degree, the risk assessment result is determined as a result indicating that the splashing water caused by the side vehicle poses a driving blinding risk to the first vehicle.

[0076] If the degree of obstruction is the non-blinding obstruction degree, the risk assessment result is determined as a result indicating that the splashing water caused by the side vehicle does not pose a driving blinding risk to the first vehicle.

[0077] In some embodiments, the degree of obstruction includes a blinding obstruction degree and a non-blinding obstruction degree; please refer to Figure 5 , Figure 5 The flowchart of step S132 in the method provided by the embodiments of the present application is shown in FIG. 2, and step S132 includes steps S210-S240. Figure 3 The flowchart of step S132 in the method provided by the embodiments of the present application is shown in FIG. 2, and step S132 includes steps S210-S240.

[0078] S210, determining the position information of the critical blinding field of view region of the first vehicle according to the vehicle information of the first vehicle.

[0079] The critical blinding field of view region can be the entire field of view region of the front windshield of the first vehicle, or a specified part of the field of view region of the front windshield of the first vehicle, such as the field of view region directly facing the driver's seat.

[0080] In some embodiments, the position of the first vehicle at the time when the side vehicle causes splashing water in the future can be predicted through the vehicle information of the first vehicle at the current time (such as the position at the current time, the speed at the current time, the acceleration at the current time, etc.), and since the driving field of view region of the first vehicle is relatively fixed relative to the position of the first vehicle, the position of the driving field of view region of the first vehicle can be determined according to the position of the first vehicle at the time when the side vehicle causes splashing water in the future.

[0081] S220, determining the occlusion relationship between the critical blinding visual field region and the water splashing region according to the position information of the critical blinding visual field region and the region range parameter of the water splashing region.

[0082] In the foregoing embodiment, the region range parameter of the water splashing region includes a relative boundary distance of the water splashing region relative to the target reference point and a size parameter of the water splashing region; the relative boundary distance includes a first boundary distance between a first lateral boundary of the water splashing region and the target reference point and a second boundary distance between a second lateral boundary of the water splashing region and the target reference point, and the target reference point refers to a position point on a road where a center point of the oncoming vehicle is located when the water splashing region is caused by the oncoming vehicle.

[0083] It can be understood that the relative position between the critical blinding visual field region and the water splashing region can be determined through the position information of the critical blinding visual field region and the region range parameter of the water splashing region, and then the occlusion relationship between the water splashing region and the critical blinding visual field region can be determined.

[0084] S230, if the occlusion relationship indicates that the water splashing region completely occludes the critical blinding visual field region, determining that the occlusion degree is a blinding occlusion degree.

[0085] S240, if the occlusion relationship indicates that the water splashing region does not completely occlude the critical blinding visual field region, determining that the occlusion degree is a non-blinding occlusion degree.

[0086] In some embodiments, the critical blinding region is a part of the visual field region of the front windshield that faces the driver's seat, and on this basis, please refer to Figure 6 , Figure 6 The flowchart of S220 in the embodiment provided by the present application is given, and step S220 includes steps S310-S320: Figure 5

[0087] S310, establishing a target coordinate system according to the position information of the critical blinding visual field region, and the origin of the target coordinate system is the intersection point of the upper boundary of the critical blinding visual field region and the vertical boundary of the critical blinding visual field region close to the co-driver's seat.

[0088] S320, transforming the position coordinates of the target reference point to the target coordinate system to obtain the target coordinates of the target reference point in the target coordinate system; the target coordinates include a target lateral coordinate, a target longitudinal coordinate and a target vertical coordinate.

[0089] S330, if the target lateral coordinate satisfies condition one, the target longitudinal coordinate satisfies condition two, and the target vertical coordinate satisfies condition three, determining that the occlusion relationship is that the water splashing region completely occludes the critical blinding visual field region.

[0090] ​Condition one: in the case that the side-by-side vehicle is located on the side far away from the driving seat of the first vehicle, the sum of the absolute value of the target lateral coordinate and the target width is less than half of the lateral width, or in the case that the side-by-side vehicle is located on the side close to the driving seat of the first vehicle, the absolute value of the target lateral coordinate is less than half of the lateral width; wherein the target width is the lateral width of the critical blind area.

[0091] It can be understood that in the case that the side-by-side vehicle is located on the side close to the driving seat of the first vehicle, since the critical blind area is located on the side of the driving seat, and the origin of the target coordinate system is the intersection of the upper boundary of the critical blind area and the vertical boundary of the critical blind area close to the side of the co-driver seat, the splashing area will preferentially cover the critical blind area on the side close to the driving seat, and if the absolute value of the target lateral coordinate is less than half of the lateral width, it means that the critical blind area is completely located in the splashing area in the lateral direction.

[0092] And in the case that the side-by-side vehicle is located on the side far away from the driving seat of the first vehicle, since the critical blind area is located on the side of the driving seat, and the origin of the target coordinate system is the intersection of the upper boundary of the critical blind area and the vertical boundary of the critical blind area close to the side of the co-driver seat, it means that the side-by-side vehicle is far away from the critical blind area, and the splashing area will preferentially cover the non-critical blind area on the side close to the co-driver, that is, the side-by-side vehicle needs to be closer to the first vehicle to make the critical blind area completely located in the splashing area in the lateral direction, therefore, only in the case that the sum of the absolute value of the target lateral coordinate and the target width is less than half of the lateral width, the critical blind area will be completely located in the splashing area in the lateral direction.

[0093] Condition two: in the case that the target reference point is located in front of the first vehicle, the absolute value of the target longitudinal coordinate is less than the second boundary distance, or in the case that the target reference point is located behind the first vehicle, the absolute value of the target longitudinal coordinate is less than the first boundary distance.

[0094] It can be understood that in the case that the target reference point is located in front of the first vehicle, that is, the side-by-side vehicle is located in front of the first vehicle, if the absolute value of the target longitudinal coordinate is less than the second boundary distance, it means that the first vehicle is located in the splashing area of the side-by-side vehicle in the longitudinal direction; similarly, in the case that the target reference point is located behind the first vehicle, that is, the side-by-side vehicle is located behind the first vehicle, if the absolute value of the target longitudinal coordinate is less than the first boundary distance, it also means that the first vehicle is located in the splashing area of the side-by-side vehicle in the longitudinal direction.

[0095] Condition three: the absolute value of the target vertical coordinate is less than the vertical height.

[0096] It can be understood that since the target reference point is the projection point of the position point where the center point of the side-by-side car causing the splashing water area is located on the road, the absolute value of the target vertical coordinate actually represents the height of the target coordinate system relative to the road, that is, the height of the origin of the target coordinate system from the road; since the origin of the target coordinate system is the intersection of the upper boundary of the critical blind area and the vertical boundary of the critical blind area close to the co-driver side, the absolute value of the target vertical coordinate is less than the vertical height, which means that the vertical height of the splashing water area exceeds the origin of the target coordinate system, that is, exceeds the upper boundary of the critical blind area, that is, the critical blind area can be completely located in the splashing water area in the vertical direction.

[0097] For better understanding of the above steps, please refer to Figure 7 The schematic diagram of the critical blind area of the first vehicle and the target coordinate system provided by the embodiments of the present application.

[0098] According to the national standard GB11562-2014 "Automobile Driver's Front View Requirements and Measurement Methods", in order to obtain the best view, the driver's horizontal line of sight height should be higher than the middle upper part of the front windshield. Referring to the standard, the present application defines the upper boundary of the critical blind area as the horizontal line at 2 / 3 of the height of the front windshield, and the vertical boundary of the critical blind area close to the co-driver side as the transverse 1 / 2 of the front windshield, as a "large area of obstruction", that is, the upper boundary of the critical blind area is defined as the horizontal line at 2 / 3 of the height of the front windshield, and the vertical boundary of the critical blind area close to the co-driver side is defined as the transverse 1 / 2 of the front windshield.

[0099] As shown in Figure 7 I, the driving view area B provided by the front windshield has a width of 2m and a height of n; the area shown by the shaded part of Figure 7 I is determined as the critical blind area, which has a width of m and a height of 2n / 3, that is, the area directly opposite the driver's side is regarded as the critical blind area; it can be understood that the influence of the critical blind area on the driving view is much greater than the influence of the non-critical blind area of the front windshield on the driving view.

[0100] Further, as shown in Figure 7 II, a target coordinate system is established at the intersection of the upper boundary of the critical blind area and the vertical boundary of the critical blind area close to the co-driver side, that is, the target coordinate system is established with the O point in Figure 7 as the origin, the x-axis of the target coordinate system is perpendicular to the movement direction of the first vehicle, and the side where the driver's seat is located is negative and the side away from the driver's seat is positive, the y-axis of the target coordinate system is parallel to the movement direction of the first vehicle, and the movement direction of the first vehicle is positive, the z-axis of the target coordinate system is perpendicular to the road, and the upper side of the first vehicle is positive; the projection of the first vehicle on the xy plane of the target coordinate system is as shown inFigure 7 as shown in the solid line box (including the solid solid line box and the hollow solid line box) in FIG. 3B, at this time, the relative position between the first vehicle C1 and the side vehicle C2 at the future T1 time is calculated, and the relative position between the first vehicle C1 and the side vehicle C2 at the T1 time is as shown in the dashed line box (including the solid dashed line box and the hollow dashed line box) in FIG. 3B.

[0101] Please continue to refer to Figure 8 For example, taking the case of driving in the same direction as the side vehicle C2 and the first vehicle C1, taking T0 time as the current time, at T0 time, the relative position between the first vehicle C1 and the side vehicle C2 is as shown in the solid line box (including the solid solid line box and the hollow solid line box) in FIG. 3B, at this time, the relative position between the first vehicle C1 and the side vehicle C2 at the future T1 time is calculated, and the relative position between the first vehicle C1 and the side vehicle C2 at the T1 time is as shown in the dashed line box (including the solid dashed line box and the hollow dashed line box) in FIG. 3B. Figure 8 as shown in the solid line box (including the solid solid line box and the hollow solid line box) in FIG. 3B, at this time, the relative position between the first vehicle C1 and the side vehicle C2 at the future T1 time is calculated, and the relative position between the first vehicle C1 and the side vehicle C2 at the T1 time is as shown in the dashed line box (including the solid dashed line box and the hollow dashed line box) in FIG. 3B. Figure 8 as shown in the solid line box (including the solid solid line box and the hollow solid line box) in FIG. 3B, at this time, the relative position between the first vehicle C1 and the side vehicle C2 at the future T1 time is calculated, and the relative position between the first vehicle C1 and the side vehicle C2 at the T1 time is as shown in the dashed line box (including the solid dashed line box and the hollow dashed line box) in FIG. 3B.

[0102] It can be understood that the target lateral coordinate is also the lateral distance between the side vehicle C2 and the first vehicle C1, and when the target lateral coordinate is greater than 0, it represents that the side vehicle is located away from the driving position of the first vehicle, and when it is less than 0, it represents that the side vehicle is located close to the driving position of the first vehicle; the target longitudinal coordinate is also the longitudinal distance between the side vehicle C2 and the first vehicle C1, and when the target longitudinal coordinate is greater than 0, it represents that the side vehicle is located in front of the first vehicle, and when it is less than 0, it represents that the side vehicle is located behind the first vehicle; the absolute value of the target vertical coordinate is also the height of the target coordinate system relative to the road surface.

[0103] Therefore, when judging whether the splashing water area caused at the future T1 time completely blocks the critical blind area, the foregoing conditions one to three can correspond to the following calculation formulas one to three respectively:

[0104] Calculation formula one (corresponding to condition one): or,

[0105]

[0106] Calculation formula two (corresponding to condition two): D oy -wr<0, D oy >0, or, -D oy -wf<0, D oy <0.

[0107] Calculation formula three (corresponding to condition three): -D oz -D H <0.

[0108] wherein, D ox , D oy , D ozrespectively correspond to a target horizontal coordinate, a target vertical coordinate, and a target vertical coordinate, D L is a horizontal width of the splash area D, m is a target width, that is, a horizontal width of the critical blinding field area, wr is a second boundary distance of the splash area D, and wf is a first boundary distance of the splash area D, D H is a vertical height of the splash area D.

[0109] S140, if the risk assessment result indicates that the splash caused by the future of the side vehicle poses a driving blinding risk to the first vehicle, the first vehicle is warned.

[0110] Among them, warning the first vehicle can include a variety of warning methods such as voice playing warning prompt information, heads-up display, instrument panel display prompt information, etc.

[0111] Through the method provided in the present application, the first vehicle is warned before it is blinded by the splash caused by the future of the side vehicle, so that the driver of the first vehicle can have sufficient time to make reasonable driving decisions in response to the imminent driving blinding risk, thereby reducing the possibility of driving out of control due to instantaneous driving blinding.

[0112] In other embodiments, please refer to Figure 9 , Figure 9 Another flowchart of the splash warning method provided by the embodiments of the present application is given, after step S140, the splash warning method can further include steps S410-S430:

[0113] S410, determine the auxiliary driving decision data targeted at avoiding the driving blinding risk.

[0114] In some embodiments, the first vehicle can be that after determining that there is a driving blinding risk, the auxiliary driving system in the first vehicle can generate auxiliary driving decision data targeted at avoiding the driving blinding risk. According to the knowledge learned by the auxiliary driving system, the vehicle can be controlled according to the auxiliary driving decision data, which can avoid the above-mentioned driving blinding risk. It is worth mentioning that in S410, the auxiliary driving system in the first vehicle can comprehensively make decisions according to the side vehicle perception information obtained above, as well as the region range parameters of the splash area determined and the current vehicle information and position information of the first vehicle, to obtain the auxiliary driving decision data.

[0115] In other embodiments, the first vehicle can simulate the auxiliary driving decision data of the first vehicle within a future preset time length in real time through a shadow following mode, and then, after determining that the first vehicle has a driving blinding risk, update the auxiliary driving decision data within the future preset time length that has been generated according to the driving blinding risk, so that the updated auxiliary driving decision data is targeted at avoiding the driving blinding risk.

[0116] S420, collecting driving control data in the process that the driver manipulates the first vehicle to avoid the driving blinding risk.

[0117] In some embodiments, the driving control data within a preset time period can be collected since the moment when it is determined that the first vehicle has the driving blinding risk; or the driving control data within a preset driving length can be collected since the position of the first vehicle when it is determined that the first vehicle has the driving blinding risk.

[0118] S430, if the difference between the driving control data and the auxiliary driving decision data is greater than a preset difference threshold, controlling the first vehicle according to the auxiliary driving decision data to avoid the driving blinding risk.

[0119] It can be understood that if the first vehicle is directly controlled according to the auxiliary driving decision data after it is determined that the first vehicle has the driving blinding risk, the situation that the driver's decision and the auxiliary driving decision frequently snatch the control right of the vehicle is likely to occur, thereby increasing the manipulation discomfort of the driver and easily leading to the manipulation error of the driver.

[0120] Therefore, in the embodiments of the present application, the first vehicle is controlled according to the auxiliary driving decision data to avoid the driving blinding risk only when the difference between the driving control data and the auxiliary driving decision data is greater than the preset difference threshold, that is, the auxiliary driving intervenes in the control of the first vehicle to avoid the driving blinding risk; and the first vehicle is not controlled by the auxiliary driving decision data when the difference between the driving control data and the auxiliary driving decision data is not greater than the preset difference threshold, that is, the auxiliary driving does not intervene in the control of the first vehicle, ensuring the complete control of the driver over the first vehicle, thereby balancing the driving comfort on the premise of ensuring safety.

[0121] It can be understood that the difference between the driving control data and the auxiliary driving decision data being greater than the preset difference threshold means that the manipulation of the driver has a large error or the manipulation of the driver is not enough to avoid the driving blinding risk, which is likely to lead to a driving accident, and therefore, the first vehicle is controlled according to the auxiliary driving decision data to avoid the driving blinding risk in this case; and the difference between the driving control data and the auxiliary driving decision data being not greater than the preset difference threshold means that even if there is a difference between the operation decision of the driver and the auxiliary driving decision, the operation decision of the driver is acceptable, and in this case, the operation of the driver is enough to control the first vehicle to avoid the driving blinding risk, and therefore, the auxiliary driving decision data does not need to intervene.

[0122] Please refer to Figure 10 , Figure 10An application flowchart related to the embodiment of the present application is given, which is applied to a first vehicle. When the driving mode of the first vehicle is a rainy day driving mode, the first vehicle can execute the method of the present application, and can obtain a decision result to be output to a downstream module by executing three types of tasks, i.e., scene recognition, risk assessment and interactive decision.

[0123] The scene recognition task includes: obtaining environment perception information, and identifying a potential splashing water scene. Specifically, the environment perception information includes side-by-side vehicle perception information and road perception information. After obtaining the environment perception information, the side-by-side vehicle perception information, the road perception information and the vehicle information of the first vehicle are used to identify whether the first vehicle is in the potential splashing water scene.

[0124] The risk assessment task includes: if it is identified that the first vehicle is in the potential splashing water scene, dynamically assessing the driving blinding risk of the first vehicle caused by the future splashing water of the side-by-side vehicle of the first vehicle. Specifically, the driving blinding risk of the first vehicle caused by the future splashing water of the side-by-side vehicle of the first vehicle is assessed according to the side-by-side vehicle perception information, the road perception information and the vehicle information of the first vehicle.

[0125] The interactive decision task includes: driving blinding risk interactive early warning and personification decision extension. The driving blinding risk interactive early warning refers to early warning the first vehicle by driving interaction (such as voice broadcast, head-up display, etc.) in the case that it is determined that the future splashing water of the side-by-side vehicle of the first vehicle exists driving blinding risk to the first vehicle. The personification decision extension refers to controlling the first vehicle to avoid the driving blinding risk according to the auxiliary driving decision data in the case that the difference between the driving control data of the driver and the auxiliary driving decision data is greater than a preset difference threshold.

[0126] Finally, the decision result is output to the downstream module, and the decision result is used to indicate whether the intervention of the auxiliary driving is needed. Specifically, in the case that the difference between the driving control data of the driver and the auxiliary driving decision data is not greater than the preset difference threshold, the decision result is used to indicate that the intervention of the auxiliary driving is not needed. In the case that the difference between the driving control data of the driver and the auxiliary driving decision data is greater than the preset difference threshold, the decision result is used to indicate that the intervention of the auxiliary driving is needed.

[0127] Please continue to refer to Figure 11 , Figure 11 Another application flowchart related to the embodiment of the present application is given, which is applied to a first vehicle, and includes steps 1010-1090:

[0128] 1010, real-time obtaining environment perception information and vehicle information of the first vehicle.

[0129] 1020, according to the obtained environmental perception information and the vehicle information of the first vehicle, whether a potential water splashing scenario is identified, if not, the process ends, if yes, step 1030 is performed.

[0130] 1030, the driving blinding risk is evaluated, and a risk evaluation result is obtained.

[0131] 1040, according to the risk evaluation result, whether the driving blinding risk exists is judged, if yes, step 1050 is performed, if not, the process ends.

[0132] 1050, the first vehicle is warned, and driving control data is collected.

[0133] 1060, the auxiliary driving decision data is updated.

[0134] 1070, the difference between the driving control data and the auxiliary driving decision data is dynamically monitored.

[0135] 1080, whether the deviation between the driving control data and the auxiliary driving decision data exceeds a preset difference threshold is judged, if yes, step 1090 is performed, if not, the process ends.

[0136] 1090, the control correction is performed according to the auxiliary driving decision data.
