[0023] In order to better understand the technical solution of the present invention, the embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0024] It should be clear that the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments.

These terms are only used to distinguish the set thresholds from each other. For example, without departing from the scope of the embodiments of the present invention, the first set threshold may also be referred to as the second set threshold, and similarly, the second set threshold may also be referred to as the first set threshold.

[0028] The terms used in the implementation section of this application are only used to explain the specific embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit this application.

[0029] An autonomous driving vehicle (or car) is usually provided with an autonomous driving controller, and the autonomous driving function of the vehicle can be realized through the autonomous driving controller. The autonomous driving controller may include multiple modules, and different modules are used to realize different autonomous driving functions (such as path planning function, emergency braking function, etc.). It is feasible to support the operation of these modules based on a unified software.

[0030] In the process of developing an autonomous driving controller, one feasible implementation method is for the developer to update (or upgrade) the software of the autonomous driving controller of the test car to the latest version at a predetermined time period. After that, the test car can be used for actual vehicle testing to verify the software optimization effect.

[0031] In one embodiment, the software can be updated by modifying parameters, processing logic, models, etc. The modified content may involve any module included in the autonomous driving controller.

[0032] However, the manual software update method requires a lot of labor costs. For example, the operation process for developers to submit the latest version of the autonomous driving controller each time is relatively complicated, and it takes a lot of labor costs and time costs to implement software updates, which also makes the development efficiency of autonomous driving low.

[0033] In addition, it is also difficult to manually update the software. For example, in a single module update scenario, since the autonomous driving controller can include multiple modules, compiling and deploying the entire system is more complicated for single module algorithm staff.

[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a vehicle software update method, which may include the following steps 101 to 103. In one embodiment, Figure 1 The execution subject of the embodiment shown may be an electronic device, and the vehicle software is updated by the electronic device. In one embodiment, the electronic device may be a background server (or back-end server).

[0035] Step 101, obtaining a first update request, the first update request including first information for updating information of a target module, the target module being any module included in the automatic driving controller of the vehicle.

[0036] The vehicle's autonomous driving controller may include multiple modules for implementing different autonomous driving functions, such as a path planning module, an emergency braking module, etc. By running the software of the autonomous driving controller, the vehicle can use the functions of each module of the autonomous driving controller as needed.

[0037] In one embodiment, when any module included in the autonomous driving controller (i.e., the above-mentioned target module) needs to be updated, it can trigger a software update of the autonomous driving controller.

[0038] In one embodiment, the module developer of the target module may manually issue the first update request through the user terminal used. When the target module needs to be updated, the developer of the target module may provide first information and issue the first update request containing the first information.

[0039] In a feasible implementation, the developer of the target module may issue an update request (or automatic version release request) every predetermined time period. In another feasible implementation, the developer of the target module may issue update requests irregularly as needed.

[0040] In a feasible implementation, the developer of the target module can log in by entering the account and password through the user terminal used. After successful login, the first update request can be sent to the background server through the user terminal to trigger the background server to perform the automatic release operation of the software. The developer of the target module can log in and send the update request without manually modifying the software. Since the user operations involved in implementing software updates are few and simple, it can save manpower investment and improve software development efficiency.

[0041] Preferably, the backend server can provide a simple front-end user interface through a web page service. The developer can enter an account number and password through the front-end user interface, and can enter the first information for updating the information of the target module after successful login.

[0042] In another embodiment, the first update request may be automatically generated by the background server. In one feasible implementation, the background server may generate an update request every predetermined time period. In another feasible implementation, the background server may generate each update request irregularly as needed.

[0043] In one embodiment, the first information may include a module identifier of the target module and content to be updated.

[0044] The module identification can be used to accurately locate the corresponding module, and the target module can be determined based on the module identification.

[0045] According to the content to be updated, the information of the target module can be updated. Preferably, the information of the target module can be updated by modifying parameters, processing logic, models and other aspects.

[0046] In one embodiment, the code program for implementing the functions of the target module may be modified according to the content to be updated.

[0047] In one implementation, the content to be updated may involve the git commit and branch of the target module. The code content of the target module may be modified according to the git commit and branch of the target module.

[0048] Step 102: Obtain first software corresponding to the automatic driving controller according to first information included in the first update request, where the first software includes information obtained by updating information of the target module according to the first information.

[0049] In one embodiment, the background server may update the information of the target module according to the first information, and generate the first software according to the updated information of the target module to realize automatic release of the autonomous driving controller software.

[0050] In another embodiment, the backend server can obtain the first software by calling the interface of the external platform to realize the automatic release of the autonomous driving controller software. The external platform can be a unified platform for building a product package for real vehicle operation. The backend server can compile the software of the entire system of the autonomous driving controller by modifying only a single module by calling the interface of the external platform.

[0051] In the case of obtaining the first software by calling an external platform, the background server can not only provide a simple front-end usage interface, but also provide a back-end function of calling the external platform.

[0052] In a feasible implementation, the backend server may send the first information to the external platform, and the external platform may generate the first software according to the first information, and feed back the generated first software to the backend server. In one embodiment, after sending the first information to the external platform, the backend server may continuously poll the external platform at a preset time interval whether the external platform generates the first software according to the first information, until the external platform generates and feeds back the first software.

[0053] In another feasible implementation, the background server may generate the first software according to the first information by calling the interface of the external platform and using the corresponding function of the external platform.

[0054] To facilitate verification of the update effect, the module update involved in the software update can be a single module update, that is, only the information of the target module is updated, and the information of other modules of the autonomous driving function is not updated. In the case of a single module update, the difference in the autonomous driving effect of the test vehicle before and after the software update can reflect the update optimization effect of the single module. If the update optimization effect of the single module does not meet expectations, the single module can be updated again based on the difference.

[0055] In the case of a single module update, in one embodiment of the present application, the first software also includes: current information of other modules included in the autonomous driving controller except the target module. That is, the first software may include updated information of the target module and non-updated current information of other modules. Since the first software includes information of each module of the autonomous driving controller, the functions of each module of the autonomous driving controller can be realized by running the first software.

[0056] In one embodiment, the vehicle software update method may further include the step of obtaining current information of other modules included in the autonomous driving controller except the target module.

[0057] In one embodiment of the present application, the first information includes identification information of the target module and content to be updated of the corresponding target module. The vehicle software update method may further include: obtaining baseline information according to the identification information of the target module included in the first update request, the baseline information including current information of other modules included in the autonomous driving controller except the target module. The step of obtaining the first software corresponding to the autonomous driving controller according to the first information included in the first update request may include: updating the information of the target module according to the content to be updated included in the first update request to obtain updated information of the target module; obtaining the first software according to the baseline information and the updated information of the target module.

[0058] When the first information includes identification information of the target module and content to be updated, current information of other modules can be acquired according to the identification information of the target module, and information of the target module can be updated according to the content to be updated of the target module.

[0059] By summarizing the current information of other modules and the updated information of the target module, the new version of the autonomous driving controller can be obtained. The new version of the software involves a single module update of the autonomous driving controller. By analyzing the driving data of the test vehicle when running the new version of the software, the optimization effect of the single module update can be obtained, providing support for the optimization of the single module.

[0060] Step 103, executing a first operation, where the first operation is used to update the software of the automatic driving controller of a pre-specified test vehicle to a first software.

[0061] After obtaining a new version of the software of the autonomous driving controller, the new version of the software can be updated to the test vehicle. If feasible, the new version of the software can be delivered to the test vehicle in the form of a software upgrade package.

[0062] In a feasible implementation, the first software may be sent to a test vehicle. The test vehicle may receive the first software and replace the relevant files of the autonomous driving controller of the vehicle with the files in the first software.

[0063] In one embodiment, the test vehicle may be a pre-designated default vehicle.

[0064] In another embodiment, the test vehicle may be any vehicle specified as needed. It is feasible that the identification information of the test vehicle may be carried in the first update request, and the new version of the software may be updated to the corresponding test vehicle according to the identification information of the test vehicle in the first update request.

[0065] In one embodiment, the backend server may update the first software to the test vehicle.

[0066] In one embodiment of the present application, the first update request also includes identification information of the test vehicle. Executing the first operation may include: updating the software of the automatic driving controller of the test vehicle to the first software according to the identification information of the test vehicle included in the first update request.

[0067] After the first software is generated, the first software can be updated in real time to the designated test vehicle according to the identification information of the test vehicle included in the update request, without the need for the user to manually update the software, thereby reducing manpower investment.

[0068] In another embodiment, the backend server may provide a download address of the first software. The developer of the target module may download the first software through the download address of the first software, and update the downloaded first software to the test vehicle.

[0069] In a feasible implementation, the developer may check the content of the downloaded first software, and update the downloaded first software to the test vehicle after confirming that it is correct.

[0070] In one embodiment, the developer of the target module may send a first update request through a user terminal, and the first update request may carry the identification information of the user terminal. The backend server may send the download address of the first software to the corresponding user terminal according to the identification information of the user terminal included in the first update request.

[0071] After the first software is updated to the test vehicle, the driving data of the test vehicle running the first software can be obtained. In one embodiment, a driving environment for testing the effect of the software update can be pre-specified, and the test vehicle that has completed the software update can be placed in the driving environment. The automatic driving controller of the test vehicle can control the test vehicle to drive in the specified driving environment, and collect real vehicle test data such as the driving data of the test vehicle. For example, there can be a specified driving path in the driving environment, and the test vehicle can drive along the specified driving path.

[0072] By analyzing and processing the actual vehicle test data, the autonomous driving control result of the current software version of the autonomous driving controller can be obtained. The autonomous driving control result can reflect the effect of the current software optimization, and specifically can reflect the effect of the current module optimization.

[0073] In a feasible implementation, if the optimization effect does not meet expectations and the optimization effect is not ideal, the software can be optimized again according to the autonomous driving control results to achieve another update of the software version, and the actual vehicle test can be conducted again based on the latest updated version. This cycle is repeated until the software optimization effect meets expectations.

[0074] In one embodiment, the driving data can be analyzed manually, for example, the developer of the target module can analyze and process the real vehicle test data. In another embodiment, the driving data can be analyzed automatically, for example, the background server can analyze and process the real vehicle test data.

[0075] In the case of manually analyzing driving data, in one embodiment of the present application, obtaining the first update request may include: receiving the first update request sent by the user terminal, the first update request also including identification information of the user terminal. The vehicle software update method may also include: obtaining driving data of the test vehicle based on the first software; and sending the driving data of the test vehicle based on the first software to the user terminal according to the identification information of the user terminal in the first update request.

[0076] It is feasible that the developer of the target module can send a first update request to the background server based on the user terminal used. After completing the vehicle software update, the driving data of the test vehicle based on the updated software can be fed back to the user terminal so that the developer of the target module can analyze the driving data and evaluate the module optimization effect. Based on the module optimization effect, if it is determined that the module optimization effect is not good, the developer can redesign the content to be updated of the target module and issue a corresponding update request based on the designed content to be updated.

[0077] In the case of automatically analyzing driving data, after the background server analyzes and processes the actual vehicle test data, in one embodiment, the background server can feed back the analysis results to the developers of the target module. The developers can, based on the analysis results, re-design the content to be updated of the target module if it is determined that the module optimization effect is not good, and issue corresponding update requests based on the designed content to be updated.

[0078] In the case of automatic analysis of driving data, after the background server analyzes and processes the actual vehicle test data, in another embodiment, the background server can generate the content to be updated of the target module based on the analysis results when it determines that the module optimization effect is not good, and then generate a corresponding update request based on the content to be updated.

[0079] In one embodiment of the present application, the vehicle software update method may further include: obtaining driving data of the test vehicle based on the first software; obtaining second information for updating the information of the target module based on the driving data of the test vehicle based on the first software; obtaining a second update request, the second update request including the second information; obtaining the second software corresponding to the automatic driving controller according to the second information included in the second update request, the second software including the information obtained by updating the information of the target module according to the second information; performing a second operation, the second operation is used to update the software of the automatic driving controller of the test vehicle from the first software to the second software. In this way, the target module can be automatically optimized again without the need for the user to manually update the software, thereby reducing manpower investment.

[0080] The first software is generated according to the first information for updating the target module, and the second information for updating the same module can be automatically generated according to the driving data of the test vehicle based on the first software, and the second software is generated according to the second information, and the second software is updated to the test vehicle. This can be repeated to achieve iterative update optimization of the same module.

[0081] Based on the processing of the first update request, a software update optimization can be achieved, and based on the processing of the second update request, another software update optimization can be achieved, and the two are used to achieve different software updates. The processing logic of the backend server for the second update request can refer to the processing logic of the first update request described in other embodiments of the present application, and this embodiment will not be repeated here.

[0082] In one embodiment of the present application, the step of obtaining second information for updating information of a target module based on driving data of a test vehicle based on a first software may include: determining whether the driving data of the test vehicle based on the first software meets a preset driving data evaluation standard; if the driving data of the test vehicle based on the first software does not meet the driving data evaluation standard, obtaining the second information based on information adjustment rules corresponding to the preset driving data evaluation standard and the driving data of the test vehicle based on the first software.

[0083] It is feasible to analyze and process the driving data according to a preset data processing rule, and determine whether the obtained analysis result meets the preset driving data evaluation standard. If not, the second information can be obtained according to the analysis result. In one embodiment, considering that the analysis result depends on the first information, the second information can also be obtained in combination with the first information.

[0084] The developer of the target module can pre-design the driving data evaluation criteria and the corresponding information adjustment rules. The backend server can automatically analyze the vehicle driving data after the software update according to the driving data evaluation criteria to determine whether the module optimization meets expectations. If it does not meet expectations, it can automatically generate new information for updating the target module according to the corresponding information adjustment rules.

[0085] For example, if the target module is an emergency brake module, and if the driving data is analyzed and it is considered that the timeliness of emergency braking is weak, information for improving the timeliness of emergency braking can be generated. For another example, if the target module is an emergency brake module, and if the driving data is analyzed and it is considered that the emergency braking is relatively urgent, information for making the emergency braking more moderate can be generated.

[0086] Based on the automatic generation of information for updating the target module, there is no need for developers to manually update the software, which reduces manpower investment and improves software development efficiency.
