[0002] With the continuous reform and improvement of autonomous driving technology, autonomous driving technology has a wide range of application scenarios in public transportation; the development of autonomous driving buses in public transportation has become a trend. The autonomous driving bus system is a new generation of public transportation system that organically combines the Internet of Vehicles with smart cars and can replace human operation.

[0003] The existing public transportation system mainly relies on waiting for the bus at the platform and purchasing tickets and getting on and off the bus on the bus. After arriving at the platform, customers wait for the bus to stop. After the bus stops, waiting users queue up to get on the bus and complete the ticket purchase on the bus. They can sit in the back row. When the bus arrives at the station, they need to call the driver to stop the bus or press the button to feedback the stop information. The driver will recognize that the user needs to stop at the current station and will stop the bus in time at the corresponding station for the user to get off.

[0004] After the bus stops at the station, paying for tickets on the bus takes a long time. The driver also needs to identify whether the person is a fare evader. When there are too many people in the station, crowded queues may occur, which brings challenges to the safe riding and management of buses. New bus technologies such as providing advance payment and boarding identification for users waiting for the bus before boarding need to be developed.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a public transportation system based on autonomous driving to solve the above technical problems. Summary of the invention

[0046] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0047] The present invention provides a public transportation system based on automatic driving.

[0048] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 In one embodiment of the present invention, a public transportation system based on autonomous driving includes:

[0049] Platform management module, bus dispatch module and autonomous driving module;

[0050] The platform management module includes a traffic management unit and a personnel statistics unit. The traffic management unit includes vehicle selection, facial recognition, route selection, height recognition and payment recognition. The vehicle selection provides users with the number of routes to select an autonomous driving vehicle. The facial recognition is used to identify the identity of the user to authenticate that the operation of the vehicle selection is a recognizable human operation. The route selection is used to provide an optional destination for the corresponding number of autonomous driving vehicles. The height recognition is used to identify the height of the user and determine whether the user meets the fare-free standard. The payment recognition is used to identify the payment behavior of the user and is used to complete the payment and user information collection at the waiting platform. Users who complete the payment or fare-free standard are recorded and the waiting user information is generated; the personnel statistics unit is used to count the real-time waiting user information;

[0051] The bus dispatching module is used to allocate and manage the departure of the autonomous driving bus;

[0052] The automatic driving module includes an automatic driving unit, a station analysis unit and a personnel identification unit. The automatic driving unit controls the automatic driving of the automatic driving bus along the driving route. The station analysis unit is used to analyze whether there are users getting on and off the bus in the vehicle and the corresponding station. The personnel identification unit is used to identify the people getting on and off the bus.

[0053] If there is a match, the passenger can get on the bus directly. If there is no match, the safety officer will remind the passenger to follow the rules of the self-driving bus or wait for the next self-driving bus.

[0054] Since one bus stop can be used for multiple buses to stop and pick up passengers, when multiple buses are provided, each bus corresponds to a vehicle selection button.

[0055] The vehicle selection button and the route selection are arranged in a corresponding manner. The route selection is displayed on a touch screen. After pressing the vehicle selection button, the touch screen will display the bus route corresponding to the vehicle and road, providing the waiting user with a destination selection; after the selection, the facial recognition collects the facial information of the waiting user and turns on the payment recognition, and the payment recognition can make a payment. After the payment is completed, the facial information of the waiting user is recorded in the platform management module, and the platform management module is fed back to the automatic driving module through the bus dispatching module, so that the automatic driving bus can obtain the number and facial information of the waiting personnel in real time. When the waiting personnel enter the automatic driving bus, the personnel recognition unit can perform a secondary recognition on the face of the waiting personnel, and match it with the recorded facial information after the secondary recognition;

[0056] If they match, the waiting user can directly take the self-driving bus;

[0057] If there is no match, the safety officer will guide the unidentified user to pay before taking the self-driving bus.

[0058] In an autonomous bus, a safety officer is necessary to manage order within the bus and to perform emergency safety control of the bus.

[0059] When the station analysis unit identifies that there are passengers on the autonomous bus or waiting passengers at the station getting on or off the bus, the station analysis unit feeds back a station stop signal to the autonomous driving unit, and the autonomous bus automatically stops at the corresponding station according to the driving program of the autonomous driving unit, so as to facilitate the waiting passengers to get on or the passengers to get off the bus.

[0060] During the process of picking up passengers by the autonomous driving bus, the personnel identification unit identifies the waiting passengers, and the station analysis unit converts the identified waiting passengers into passengers, and the number of passengers increases; if there are passengers getting off the bus, the number of passengers decreases;

[0061] When waiting passengers are converted into passengers, the site analysis unit feeds back the number of converted passengers to the passenger counting unit, and the passenger counting unit adaptively deletes the number and facial information of the corresponding waiting passengers; the displayed number of waiting passengers is reduced to reduce the storage capacity required for the long-term operation of the platform management module.

[0062] When the site analysis unit fails to identify any passengers on the autonomous bus or any waiting users at the site, the site analysis unit feeds back a no-stop-at-site signal to the autonomous driving unit, and the autonomous driving bus continues to autonomously drive along the destination route according to the driving program of the autonomous driving unit and goes to the site where passengers need to be picked up or dropped off.

[0063] Facial recognition and payment recognition are added at the platform to facilitate users to complete the payment of fares while waiting for the bus. After payment, the waiting users can be recorded through facial recognition, which is convenient for paying the fare in advance during the waiting time; and the waiting users in a station are counted collectively. The station analysis unit is used to count whether the waiting users in the self-driving bus and on the platform can be boarded at one time. When riding, the personnel recognition unit automatically identifies whether the waiting users have paid, thereby reducing congestion caused by users paying on the bus and improving the riding efficiency of waiting users.

[0064] Please refer again Figure 4 The autonomous driving module also includes a data synchronization unit, which is used to synchronously update the real-time number of passengers of the autonomous driving bus. The data synchronization unit is also used to feed back the boarding passengers to the personnel statistics unit to update the waiting user information in real time.

[0065] It facilitates the data interaction between the autonomous bus and the bus station, and is used to update the user information of the remaining passengers waiting at the station.

[0066] It is applicable to data exchange between autonomous driving buses and stations after they stop at the stations. After the autonomous driving buses pick up passengers, the bus dispatching module provides data synchronization support for the waiting users that can be picked up at the stations, so as to facilitate the real-time display of the maximum number of passengers that the autonomous driving buses on the corresponding roads can currently carry.

[0067] Furthermore, the data synchronization unit is also used for data synchronization of two autonomous driving buses, so that when one autonomous driving bus fails and cannot move, the other autonomous driving bus takes over to ensure the continuity of the bus system after the autonomous driving vehicle fails.

[0068] It facilitates information exchange and synchronization between the two self-driving buses, and the new self-driving bus can completely replace the old self-driving bus to continue carrying passengers.

[0069] Applicable to when an autonomous driving bus cannot continue to drive safely after an accident or failure during driving, the bus dispatching module dispatches a new autonomous driving bus to the parking location of the autonomous driving bus in the faulty state, and the new autonomous driving bus simultaneously receives the carrying information of the autonomous driving bus in the faulty state, and continues the driving route and plan of the autonomous driving bus before the failure after picking up the passengers. In the face of emergency, timely countermeasures can be taken, the customer's destination stop plan can be continued, and waiting users at subsequent stations can continue to be received.

[0070] Please refer again Figure 2 The platform management module also includes a voice broadcast unit, which is connected to the facial recognition signal and is used to broadcast operation reminders.

[0071] When the facial recognition captures the face of the user, the voice broadcast unit begins to voice remind the user how to operate and ride the self-driving bus.

[0072] When the user presses the vehicle selection button, the voice announcement unit reminds the user to select the destination corresponding to the vehicle route;

[0073] When used to select a destination, the voice announcement unit reminds the user to perform payment identification and explains the available payment methods for the autonomous bus.

[0074] Please refer again Figure 5 Specifically, the personnel counting unit includes waiting personnel and remaining personnel. The waiting personnel are users who have completed vehicle route selection, destination selection and payment, and are used to count the number of waiting personnel; the remaining personnel are used to count the number of people who cannot be carried by the autonomous driving vehicle corresponding to the same vehicle route.

[0075] It is convenient to count the waiting passengers and the remaining passengers at a station; it provides data support for the dispatching and allocation of autonomous buses.

[0076] In this embodiment, the waiting passengers refer to the waiting users within the allowed number of passengers of the autonomous bus;

[0077] The remaining passengers are waiting users who exceed the number of passengers allowed by the autonomous bus.

[0078] Waiting passengers are allowed to board the self-driving bus after it stops, while the remaining passengers need to wait for the next self-driving bus; subsequent passengers will queue up in the same way.

[0079] In this embodiment, the total number of waiting passengers that can actually be carried displayed at the station is adaptively adjusted according to the real-time carrying information of the autonomous bus, providing support for the allocation and management of waiting passengers at multiple stations.

[0080] Please refer again Figure 5 The personnel statistics unit also includes unidentified personnel, and the unidentified personnel are users who have not completed payment and have not performed any operation and appear within the recognition range of the facial recognition; when the unidentified personnel appear, the voice broadcast unit automatically broadcasts a reminder voice.

[0081] It is convenient to automatically identify whether the user is in the waiting area of ​​the self-driving bus, and provide auxiliary guidance for the user to understand and use the self-driving bus.

[0082] The voice content may be a combination of "Please select the route you need to take"; "Please select the destination to arrive at"; "Please complete the ticket purchase in the payment area"; "Ticket purchase completed, please wait", or a combination of other reminder voices.

[0083] Please refer again Figure 6 Specifically, the bus dispatching module includes a vehicle statistics unit, a personnel analysis unit and a vehicle allocation unit. The vehicle statistics unit is used to count the running vehicles and waiting vehicles, the personnel analysis unit is used to count the number of surplus personnel, and the vehicle allocation unit automatically allocates the departure of the autonomous driving bus according to the number of surplus personnel.

[0084] When the number of remaining passengers reaches the preset number, the vehicle allocation unit automatically allocates the standby autonomous driving bus, and the autonomous driving bus adaptively departs according to the actual waiting situation;

[0085] When the number of remaining persons does not reach the preset number, the vehicle allocation unit automatically dispatches vehicles at a preset dispatching interval.

[0086] The vehicle statistics unit facilitates statistical analysis of the autonomous driving bus to identify and calculate the number of buses in operation and the number of buses on standby.

[0087] In this embodiment, the vehicle allocation unit is also used to intelligently switch the vehicle and road of the autonomous driving bus, and the autonomous driving module realizes automatic route switching according to the switching of the vehicle and road.

[0088] The lanes and routes for each vehicle are preset in advance:

[0089] For example, there are four buses on route 1;

[0090] Six buses on route 2;

[0091] Four buses on route 3;

[0092] When the number of surplus passengers on Route 1 is difficult to be transported by four Route 1 buses, the dispatch center automatically switches an idle self-driving bus on Route 2 or 3 to Route 1, facilitating the adaptive allocation of vehicles.

[0093] In this embodiment, each independent autonomous driving bus can switch the number of lanes and driving routes according to the needs of use, and the lanes and driving routes are set in a corresponding manner;

[0094] When there are not too many people on the bicycle lane, there is no need to change the pre-set driving lane and driving route;

[0095] When there are too many surplus passengers on a single route, it is necessary to allocate subsequent self-driving buses in advance or switch to self-driving buses on other routes to replace the current route for additional transportation; in order to cope with the problem of too many passengers on a single route and inability to dispatch buses in time, on the one hand, it can achieve flexible deployment of self-driving buses, and on the other hand, it is convenient to quickly transport waiting passengers at bus stops.

[0096] In this embodiment, the payment identification includes a QR code scanner, a bus card identifier, and a coin acceptor.

[0097] Can be a separate QR code scanner;

[0098] It can be a separate bus card reader;

[0099] Can be a separate coin-operated meter;

[0100] Can be a QR code scanner + coin acceptor;

[0101] It can be a bus card reader + coin acceptor;

[0102] It can be a QR code scanner + bus card reader + coin acceptor.

[0103] It is convenient for waiting users to complete ticket purchase and identity record while waiting; face recognition is used to determine whether the ticket has been purchased when boarding the bus, which improves the efficiency of waiting personnel boarding the bus and reduces the phenomenon of users being congested at the door waiting to pay and insert coins during the pick-up and drop-off process.

[0104] The usage process of the public transportation system based on autonomous driving is as follows:

[0105] The user presses the bus number to select the bus route;

[0106] Facial recognition collects personal information and records users who choose the lane;

[0107] Analyze facial information to determine whether a ticket has been purchased repeatedly;

[0108] If the route has been recorded, the route selection interface will not be displayed to save power and avoid accidental touch of the route selection interface;

[0109] Automatically delete newly recorded user information (face data) without displaying the route selection interface;

[0110] If it is not recorded, the route selection interface will be displayed to provide support for the user to select the destination;

[0111] Users select the destination of the journey according to their needs and choose the destination of the self-driving bus in advance, which provides support for the automatic stop of the self-driving bus.

[0112] After the destination is selected, the user is reminded to make payment, and the user completes the payment;

[0113] After the user completes payment, count the number of waiting users;

[0114] When the self-driving bus stops at the station, it will allow waiting users to board the bus based on the records. During the boarding process, the safety officer will assist and guide the passengers to avoid fare evasion or violation of traffic management rules.

[0115] After the waiting passengers get on the bus, the platform management module automatically deletes the corresponding facial information of the waiting passengers, reducing the redundancy of system data and extending the service life of the equipment.

[0116] For further information, please refer to Fig. 9 , Fig.10 and Fig.11 The platform management module includes a frame 1, a bus number button 2, a camera 3, a touch screen 4, a player 5 and a payment device 6, and the bus number button 2, the camera 3, the touch screen 4, the player 5 and the payment device 6 are integrated and installed on the frame 1;

[0118] The movable cover 23 is a light-transmitting plate, and a vehicle road sign is integrated on the movable cover 23 .

[0119] In this embodiment, the indicator light strip 26 is used to show whether the number of people waiting for the bus is overloaded. If the number of people waiting for the bus does not exceed the number that the autonomous bus can carry, the indicator light strip 26 lights up green.

[0120] If the number of waiting passengers exceeds the number that the autonomous bus can carry, the indicator light strip 26 turns red;

[0121] Subsequent passengers can identify the waiting state of the vehicle they are riding through the indicator light strip 26.

[0122] In this embodiment, the touch screen 4 can automatically display the route information of all vehicle roads when no operation is performed, and the touch screen 4 is not unlocked and cannot be manually touched;

[0123] After the touch switch 25 is pressed once to start, the touch screen 4 only displays the driving route corresponding to the pressed road number, and the touch screen 4 is unlocked, and the destination can be selected by touching the touch screen 4.

[0124] When the user presses the movable cover 23, the movable cover 23 can shrink and abut against the touch switch 25. After the touch switch 25 is pressed, the touch screen 4 is activated.
