Therefore, the terms describing the position relationship in the drawings are only used for illustrative purposes and cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0031] In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, if the term "connection" or the like appears to indicate the connection relationship between components, the term should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two components or the interaction relationship between two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0032] In an embodiment of the present invention, at least one vehicle-mounted smart button is set on the steering wheel or in the central control area of ​​the vehicle, and the vehicle-mounted button adaptive control method provided is: after the vehicle-mounted smart button obtains the vehicle status, it matches the button function corresponding to the vehicle status, and then adaptively switches to the matched button function.

[0033] Specifically, the vehicle-mounted smart button obtains the current vehicle status from the vehicle system through the vehicle-mounted bus (such as CAN bus, LIN bus, MOST bus, FlexRay bus, Ethernet bus, etc.). The vehicle status is determined by at least one signal on the vehicle-mounted bus, and multiple signal status combinations correspond to multiple vehicle statuses. At least one signal on the vehicle-mounted bus includes any one or more of the vehicle ignition switch, engine status, door lock, door switch, window switch, pedal signal, brake signal, vehicle speed, parking, interior temperature, exterior temperature, rainfall, light, and seat pressure signal; the vehicle status includes any one or more of door unlocking, door opening, user sitting in the driving seat, vehicle ignition, vehicle starting, vehicle driving at a low speed below the first threshold speed (such as 30km / h), vehicle driving at a high speed above the second threshold speed (such as 60km / h), parking, vehicle shutdown, vehicle locking, temperature too high (temperature greater than or equal to the temperature threshold), temperature too low (temperature lower than the temperature threshold), and rain. When the rainfall signal exceeds the preset rainfall threshold and the window switch signal is open, the corresponding vehicle status is raining.

[0034] The button functions corresponding to the vehicle status include one or more of the body domain control function, the cockpit domain control function, the chassis domain control function, the power domain control function, and the auxiliary driving domain control function;

[0035] The body domain control functions include: pressing a button to display the user identity tag, opening the window, closing the window, pressing a button to play an animation, pressing a button to display the breathing light effect, pressing a button to turn off the screen, locking the doors and windows, unlocking the doors, turning on the high beam, turning off the lights, turning on the air conditioner, turning on the air conditioner, raising the temperature in the car, and lowering the temperature in the car;

[0036] The cockpit domain control functions include: turning on or off any one or more of the multimedia systems;

[0037] The chassis domain control functions include: opening the handbrake, adjusting the suspension, or any one or more of these;

[0038] The power domain control functions include: ignition, shutdown, and any one or more of automatic start-stop;

[0039] The assisted driving domain control functions include: turning on cruise control, turning on lane keeping, turning on active braking, or any one or more of these.

[0040] In this embodiment, the same vehicle-mounted smart button provides the same or different button function adaptive switching modes for different users, and each button function adaptive switching mode includes several same or different types of vehicle states. For example, in Table a below, the same vehicle-mounted smart button provides the corresponding button function adaptive switching modes to users "Zhang San", "Li Si" and "Wang Wu" respectively. For example, in Table a, under the same vehicle state of "door open", the button function in the button function adaptive switching mode provided by the vehicle-mounted smart button to "Zhang San" is "open the window", while the button function in the button function adaptive switching mode provided to "Li Si" is "button to play animation"; the button function in the button function adaptive switching mode provided to "Wang Wu" is "button to display breathing light effect".

[0041] Table a

[0042]

[0043]

[0044] Preferably, each button function of the on-board smart button has a corresponding function button icon. After matching the button function corresponding to the current vehicle status, the on-board smart button synchronously displays the corresponding function button icon (a display screen is provided on the on-board smart button, and the function button icon is displayed on the display screen).

[0045] Different users usually have different requirements for vehicle function control. For example, in Table a above, when the vehicle is in the "vehicle ignition" state, Zhang San hopes that the vehicle-mounted smart button will switch to "turn off automatic start and stop" at this time, while Li Si hopes that the vehicle-mounted smart button will switch to "lock doors and windows" at this time. In order to meet the adaptive switching requirements of different button functions of different users in the same vehicle state, in this embodiment, the same vehicle-mounted smart button provides corresponding button function adaptive switching modes for different users. When the user's identity is identified, the vehicle system first matches the button function adaptive switching mode bound to the identified user identity, and then after the vehicle-mounted smart button obtains the current vehicle state, it further matches the button function corresponding to the current vehicle state from the button function adaptive switching mode bound to the user identity.

[0046] Regarding the identification of the user's identity, in this embodiment, it is preferred to identify the user's identity by identifying the vehicle key information or face recognition method that stores the user's identity data. When the user enters the vehicle with the vehicle key, the vehicle system parses the user's identity data carried in the vehicle key information to identify the user's identity.

[0047] The adaptive switching mode of the button functions provided by the in-vehicle smart button for different users can be set independently through the setting function provided by the car's central control screen, or it can be set on the mobile phone side by connecting the mobile phone application software to the in-vehicle central control. If the user does not set it independently, the factory default adaptive switching mode of the button functions will be used.

[0048] The vehicle-mounted smart button provided in this embodiment can also adaptively switch the button function according to the user's pressing habits in different vehicle states. The specific switching method is:

[0049] The vehicle system collects the frequency of the user using each key function of the vehicle smart key in each vehicle state during the historical period, and sets the key function with the highest frequency of use as the default key function of the user in the vehicle state. After the setting is completed, when the vehicle smart key detects that the vehicle has entered the vehicle state, the key function of the vehicle smart key is adaptively switched to the default key function for the user.

[0050] For example, if the vehicle status is "vehicle ignition", in this vehicle status, the key functions that the user has set through the central control screen or mobile phone app are, for example, turning on the air conditioner 90 times, opening the window 8 times, and locking the doors and windows 2 times, then the vehicle system will set turning on the air conditioner as the default key function for the user in the vehicle status of "vehicle ignition". In this way, as long as the user uses the vehicle and is in the vehicle status of "vehicle ignition", the in-vehicle smart key will automatically switch the key function to the case function of "turning on the air conditioner". At the same time, the key icon of the key function of "turning on the air conditioner" is displayed.

[0051] The embodiment of the present invention further provides a vehicle-mounted smart button, which provides the above-mentioned vehicle-mounted button adaptive control method for the vehicle.

[0052] In summary, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0053] 1. It can adaptively switch different button functions and function button icons of the same vehicle button according to different vehicle states, which improves the intelligence level of customizing the vehicle button functions.

[0054] 2. The same in-vehicle button provides adaptive switching modes for button functions corresponding to different users, meeting the personalized button function requirements of different users in the same or different vehicle states.

[0055] It should be noted that the above specific implementations are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and the technical principles used. Those skilled in the art should understand that various modifications, equivalent substitutions, changes, etc. can be made to the present invention. However, as long as these changes do not deviate from the spirit of the present invention, they should be within the scope of protection of the present invention. In addition, some terms used in the specification and claims of this application are not restrictive, but are only for the convenience of description.
