DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0018] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0019] Existing vehicle safety systems mainly focus on technologies such as pre-collision systems (PCS), lane departure warning systems (LDWS), and automatic emergency braking systems (AEB), which are mainly used to prevent vehicles from colliding with other vehicles or obstacles. However, these systems are mainly designed for large-scale collisions or side impact accidents, and have not yet formed an effective solution for situations where sharp objects penetrate the vehicle body at a high speed.

[0020] For example, when the current pre-collision system detects an obstacle ahead, it will sound an alarm and automatically brake through sensors such as radar or cameras, but it cannot effectively detect and judge small or irregularly shaped objects (such as the end of a guardrail or a fallen steel pipe). At the same time, traditional collision detection systems usually rely on acceleration sensors and gyroscopes to trigger safety protection measures such as airbags when they detect a drastic change in the vehicle's acceleration. However, in the case of a sudden sharp object piercing the vehicle body, this method often has a lag and cannot trigger the protection device in time, which may cause serious casualties.

[0021] In view of this, the present application proposes a vehicle safety control method, which forms a corresponding protection mechanism in advance for different degrees of foreign object intrusion risks. When applied, the danger level of foreign object intrusion is predicted by combining real-time data such as the vehicle's driving state parameters, the motion parameters of the foreign object and the foreign object attribute parameters, so as to take safety measures corresponding to the danger level in advance and reduce the probability of injury to the occupants in the accident.

[0022] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 1 is a flow chart of a vehicle safety control method proposed in one embodiment of the present application. Figure 1 As shown, the method comprises the following steps: S101: When a foreign object is detected around the vehicle, determine whether the foreign object has a risk of intruding into the vehicle body based on the vehicle's driving state parameters and the movement parameters of the foreign object.

[0023] In this embodiment, the vehicle's driving state parameters are used to characterize the current motion of the vehicle, including the current vehicle speed, acceleration, heading angle, etc. The motion parameters of the foreign object are used to characterize the current motion of the foreign object, including the current motion direction, motion speed, motion acceleration, etc. It is easy to understand that if the foreign object moves toward the vehicle at a faster speed, it means that the foreign object has the risk of invading the vehicle body.

[0024] In a feasible implementation, infrared sensors, LiDAR, high-speed cameras, visual sensors and other devices can be used to monitor environmental changes around the vehicle in real time and detect foreign objects that may exist around the vehicle in a timely manner.

[0025] Specifically, in the detection of foreign objects around the vehicle, infrared sensors can be installed in key parts of the vehicle, such as front and rear bumpers, side doors, etc. When a foreign object enters the infrared detection range around the vehicle, it will block the propagation path of the infrared rays, causing the signal received by the sensor to change. Then, by analyzing this signal change, the presence and location of the foreign object can be determined.

[0026] LiDAR calculates the distance of foreign objects by emitting a laser beam and measuring the time difference between the emission and reception of the laser beam. LiDAR can scan the area around the vehicle and generate point cloud data containing information such as the location, shape and size of foreign objects, and generate a three-dimensional point cloud map of the surrounding environment. Then, through the processing and analysis of the point cloud data, it can identify foreign objects around the vehicle and track their dynamic changes in real time to measure the changes in the relative distance between the foreign object and the vehicle and determine whether there is an object approaching quickly.

[0027] High-speed cameras identify and understand the surrounding environment by capturing video images. They can provide rich visual information, including the color, texture, shape and other features of objects. High-speed cameras can be installed in locations such as front and rear windshields and side windows. Through image processing techniques such as grayscale, binarization, and edge detection, redundant information in the image can be removed and the features of foreign objects can be highlighted. Then, classification algorithms are used to classify and identify foreign objects, such as different types of foreign objects such as pedestrians, animals, and objects.

[0028] Visual sensors can be used for more sophisticated foreign object recognition and classification. For example, by training and optimizing the images captured by visual sensors through deep learning algorithms, accurate recognition of specific types of foreign objects can be achieved, such as identifying different types of roadblocks, dropped objects, etc.

[0029] In addition, the above-mentioned sensors and corresponding detection algorithms have a redundant design to ensure that when a single sensor or module fails, the backup sensor can be used to detect and judge the risk of foreign object intrusion, thereby maintaining all-round monitoring of the vehicle body and promoting the maintenance of vehicle safety.

[0030] This embodiment can integrate and fuse data from different sensors through data fusion technology to generate a more complete and accurate environmental model. Then, the fused data is processed and analyzed using a foreign object recognition algorithm based on deep learning to timely and accurately identify foreign objects around the vehicle, such as those from the rear and sides of the vehicle. In this way, the possible danger of the vehicle can be perceived earlier, especially when driving at high speeds, which can provide users with more reaction time and ultimately provide strong protection for the safe driving of the vehicle.

[0031] S102: When it is determined that the foreign object has a risk of intruding into the vehicle body, a danger level of the foreign object is determined based on the vehicle driving state parameters, the motion parameters of the foreign object, and the foreign object attribute parameters.

[0032] In this embodiment, the foreign body attribute parameters refer to some characteristic parameters inherent in the foreign body itself, including the shape, size, material, etc. The foreign body attribute parameters can be obtained by fusion analysis of various data collected by the above-mentioned laser radar and visual sensor and other equipment.

[0033] In a feasible implementation, when it is determined that a foreign object has a risk of intruding the vehicle body, the time interval of the foreign object intrusion can be predicted based on the vehicle's driving state parameters and the foreign object's motion parameters, and the danger level of the foreign object can be determined based on the time interval. The time interval refers to the time interval from the moment the foreign object is detected to the moment the foreign object and the vehicle invade each other. The shorter the time interval, the higher the danger level of the foreign object.

[0034] Specifically, the time interval may be compared with the preset time information. The preset time information includes a first preset time and a second preset time, and the first preset time is less than the second preset time. Wherein, when the time interval is less than or equal to the first preset time, the danger level is a high-level threat. When the time interval is greater than the first preset time and less than or equal to the second preset time, the danger level is a medium-level threat. When the time interval is greater than the second preset time, the danger level is a primary threat.

[0035] Therefore, by setting the preset time information and comparing it with the time interval of foreign object intrusion, the danger level of the current foreign object can be accurately judged. The preset time can be set by the driver himself according to his driving experience. For example, the first preset time is 3s and the second preset time is 6s.

[0036] In a feasible implementation, when it is determined that a foreign object has a risk of intruding into the vehicle body, the possibility score of the foreign object intrusion can be predicted based on the vehicle's driving state parameters, the foreign object's motion parameters, and the foreign object's attribute parameters, and the foreign object's danger level can be determined based on the possibility score. The possibility score refers to the probability that the foreign object intrusion will affect the vehicle safety, and the possibility score is between 0 and 1. It is easy to understand that the larger the possibility score, the higher the danger level of the foreign object.

[0037] Specifically, based on the vehicle's driving state parameters and the foreign object's motion parameters, we can understand the changes in the relative motion between the two. If the speed of the two is faster and the relative distance is shortened faster, it means that the depth of the foreign object's invasion will be deeper and the impact on vehicle safety will be greater, so the possibility score is higher. On this basis, if the foreign object attribute parameters indicate that the foreign object is large in size and irregular in shape, it means that the foreign object will cause a larger area of ​​damage to the vehicle body after intrusion, and the impact on vehicle safety will also be greater, so the possibility score is higher.

[0038] For example, when the probability score of foreign body intrusion is less than 0.4, the danger level of foreign body intrusion is determined to be a primary threat. When the probability score of foreign body intrusion is greater than or equal to 0.4 and less than 0.8, the danger level of foreign body intrusion is determined to be a medium threat. When the probability score of foreign body intrusion is greater than 0.8, the danger level of foreign body intrusion is determined to be a high threat.

[0039] S103: Control the vehicle based on a protection strategy corresponding to the danger level of the foreign object.

[0040] In this embodiment, different danger levels correspond to different protection strategies. The protection strategy refers to a series of safety response measures that need to be controlled by the vehicle, including automatic braking and deceleration, deployment of airbags, etc. When applied, when a foreign object is detected and the danger level of the foreign object is determined, the protection strategy corresponding to the danger level is immediately executed to control the vehicle's brakes, airbags and other module equipment to take corresponding actions, so as to activate defense in advance and reduce the impact of accidents.

[0041] This embodiment pre-sets different protection strategies and matches them according to the current danger level of foreign objects, so as to take appropriate and effective safety defense measures in time for different foreign object intrusion situations, thereby minimizing the risk of casualties.

[0042] Optionally, when a foreign object is detected around the vehicle, determining whether the foreign object has a risk of intruding into the vehicle body based on the vehicle driving state parameters and the motion parameters of the foreign object includes: S201: When a foreign object is detected around a vehicle, a first motion trajectory of the vehicle is generated based on a driving state parameter of the vehicle, and a second motion trajectory of the foreign object is generated based on a motion parameter of the foreign object.

[0043] In this implementation manner, the first motion trajectory represents the motion path of the vehicle within a short period of time in the future, and the second motion trajectory represents the motion path of the foreign object within a short period of time in the future.

[0044] Specifically, when a foreign object is detected around the vehicle, the first motion trajectory of the vehicle can be generated by establishing a vehicle dynamic model to simulate the actual driver control process. The vehicle's driving state parameters that need to be considered at this time include the vehicle's acceleration, deceleration, steering angle and other parameters. At the same time, a projectile motion model, a curve motion model, etc. can be constructed, and numerical integration, differential equations and other methods can be used to solve the second motion trajectory of the foreign object. The motion parameters of the foreign object that need to be considered at this time include the speed, direction and other parameters of the foreign object.

[0045] S202: Determine whether the foreign object has a risk of intruding into the vehicle body based on the first motion trajectory and the second motion trajectory.

[0046] In this embodiment, after obtaining the first motion trajectory of the vehicle and the second motion trajectory of the foreign object, a preset collision detection algorithm, such as an algorithm based on polygon intersection (such as libgeos library), can be used to determine whether the vehicle and the foreign object will collide. These algorithms usually also need to consider the geometric shape, size and relative position relationship of the vehicle and the foreign object, as well as their changes over time.

[0047] The preset collision detection algorithm is obtained through multiple simulation tests. By using simulation software to simulate the motion trajectory of the vehicle and foreign objects, the relative position and motion between the two can be intuitively observed, and by simulating collision situations under different scenes and conditions, the collision detection algorithm can be further verified and adjusted to improve the effectiveness and accuracy of the collision detection algorithm.

[0048] Specifically, the judgment process of the risk of foreign object intrusion mainly includes: determining the minimum distance between the first motion trajectory and the second motion trajectory; when the minimum distance is less than the distance threshold, determining that the foreign object has the risk of intruding the vehicle body; when the minimum distance is greater than or equal to the distance threshold, determining that the foreign object does not have the risk of intruding the vehicle body.

[0049] In this embodiment, the minimum distance refers to the distance corresponding to the moment when the first motion trajectory of the vehicle and the second motion trajectory of the foreign object are closest. The distance threshold represents the safe distance between the vehicle and the foreign object. By comparing the minimum distance with the preset distance threshold, it can be determined whether the foreign object has the risk of invading the vehicle body. If the minimum distance is less than the distance threshold, it means that in the future, the foreign object may break through the safe distance defense line of the vehicle, and the foreign object may be very close to the vehicle, so it is considered that the foreign object has the risk of invading the vehicle body. If the minimum distance is greater than or equal to the distance threshold, it means that in the future, the foreign object is outside the safe distance defense line of the vehicle, so it is considered that the foreign object does not have the risk of invading the vehicle body.

[0050] Therefore, by comparing the movement trajectories of the vehicle and the foreign object, we can observe whether the two overlap or approach each other in space. If the movement trajectories of the two are very close or overlapped at a certain time point or time period, it means that there may be a risk of collision, and it is determined that the foreign object has the risk of invading the vehicle body. If the movement trajectories of the two are always far apart, it means that there is a high probability that there is no risk of collision, and it is determined that the foreign object does not have the risk of invading the vehicle body. In turn, the accuracy and reliability of collision risk judgment are effectively improved to ensure driving safety.

[0051] Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a flow chart for determining the danger level of foreign matter in one embodiment of the present application. Figure 2 As shown, when it is determined that the foreign object has the risk of intruding into the vehicle body, the danger level of the foreign object is determined based on the vehicle driving state parameters, the motion parameters of the foreign object and the attribute parameters of the foreign object, including: S301: Based on the driving state parameters of the vehicle and the motion parameters of the foreign object, determine the intrusion parameters of the foreign object and the relative motion parameters between the foreign object and the vehicle.

[0052] In this embodiment, the relative motion parameters between the foreign object and the vehicle include the relative distance change rate and / or relative speed change rate of the two. The relative motion parameters can reflect the possibility of foreign objects invading the vehicle body. If the relative distance change rate between the vehicle and the foreign object is faster, it means that the distance between the foreign object and the vehicle is shortened faster in a short time, and the foreign object is approaching the vehicle body quickly and there is a high possibility that the foreign object is invading the vehicle body. If the relative speed change rate between the vehicle and the foreign object is faster, it means that the relative acceleration between the foreign object and the vehicle is greater, which will cause the distance between the foreign object and the vehicle to shorten sharply in a short time, and there is a high possibility that the foreign object is invading the vehicle body.

[0053] The intrusion parameters of foreign objects include the location, angle and depth of foreign object intrusion. The intrusion parameters can reflect the impact of foreign object intrusion on vehicle safety. If the location of the foreign object intrusion is closer to the important parts of the vehicle, the angle of penetration is closer to the vertical direction and the penetration depth is deeper, the impact of foreign object intrusion on vehicle safety will be greater, which may affect some important functions of the vehicle and be difficult to remove from the vehicle body, which may increase the difficulty of subsequent vehicle maintenance.

[0054] Furthermore, after obtaining the vehicle's driving state parameters and the motion parameters of the foreign object, the foreign object's intrusion parameters can be predicted through a machine learning algorithm. Specifically, by collecting a large amount of data on foreign objects penetrating the vehicle body in different scenarios (different vehicle motion states and foreign object motion states), including the shape, size, material of the foreign object, the material and structure of the vehicle body, and the penetration angle, etc. Then use machine learning algorithms, such as neural networks and support vector machines, to train and learn these data. Finally, through the trained model, the current motion data of the vehicle and foreign objects, as well as the foreign object and vehicle body information are input to predict the position, angle, and depth of the foreign object penetrating the vehicle body.

[0055] S302: Determine the danger level of the foreign object based on the intrusion parameter, the relative motion parameter and the foreign object attribute parameter.

[0056] In this embodiment, when it is determined that a foreign object has the risk of intruding into the vehicle body, the intrusion parameters of the foreign object, the attribute parameters of the foreign object, and the relative motion parameters between the foreign object and the vehicle will affect the current degree of danger of foreign object intrusion. It is easy to understand that when the relative motion parameters between the foreign object and the vehicle reflect that the distance between the foreign object and the vehicle is sharply shortened in a short period of time, the predicted foreign object intrusion parameter table reflects that the position where the foreign object intrudes into the vehicle body is a key position, the angle of penetration is close to vertical, the depth of penetration is deep, and the attribute parameters of the foreign object reflect that the foreign object is large in size and sharp in shape, the greater the threat risk of the foreign object to the vehicle, the higher the danger level of the foreign object.

[0057] Specifically, the risk level of foreign matter can be quantified by calculating the risk score of foreign matter, so as to achieve the classification of the risk level of foreign matter. The process specifically includes: S302-1: Determine the risk score of the foreign body based on the intrusion parameter, relative movement rate and foreign body attribute parameter.

[0058] In this embodiment, the risk score of the foreign object is used to characterize the threat level of the foreign object to the vehicle safety. The higher the risk score, the higher the threat level of the foreign object to the vehicle.

[0059] For example, the intrusion parameter, relative movement rate and foreign body attribute parameter can be assigned corresponding weights according to their respective importance to the risk level judgment, and weighted summation can be performed to obtain the risk score of the foreign body. Specifically, the calculation method is as follows:

[0060] in, represents the risk score of the foreign body, Indicates the intrusion score of foreign matter. Indicates the relative speed between the foreign object and the vehicle, Indicates the property score of the foreign object. The attribute score can be obtained by comprehensive calculation based on the penetration position, penetration angle, and penetration depth of the foreign body. It can be quantified based on parameters such as the shape and size of the foreign body.

[0061] S302-2: When the risk score is lower than the first preset score, the danger level of the foreign body is determined to be primary; when the risk score is higher than or equal to the first preset score and lower than the second preset score, the danger level of the foreign body is determined to be intermediate; when the risk score is higher than or equal to the second preset score, the danger level of the foreign body is determined to be high.

[0062] In this embodiment, the second preset score is greater than the first preset score. By comparing the risk score of the foreign object with the first preset score and the second preset score, the danger level of the current foreign object can be accurately judged.

[0063] For example, the first preset score and the second preset score can be set to 30 points and 70 points respectively. When the risk score is less than 30 points, the danger level of the foreign body is determined to be primary, when the risk score is greater than or equal to 30 points and less than 70 points, the danger level of the foreign body is determined to be intermediate, and when the risk score is greater than or equal to 70 points, the danger level of the foreign body is determined to be high.

[0064] It should be noted that the danger level of foreign objects in this application is not limited to the above-mentioned primary, intermediate and advanced levels. A more detailed risk level division can also be performed based on the risk score of the foreign objects, such as divided into four levels, five levels, etc., to adapt to more foreign object intrusion scenarios.

[0065] This embodiment calculates the risk score of foreign objects and classifies the danger levels of foreign objects, thereby laying a foundation for the response of subsequent safety measures and promoting the protection of vehicle safety.

[0066] Optionally, the vehicle is controlled based on a protection strategy corresponding to the danger level of the foreign object, including: S401: When the danger level of the foreign object is primary, a first safety strategy is used to control the vehicle; the first safety strategy includes activating a seat belt pretensioner and issuing a voice prompt, and the voice prompt is used to guide the user to take preset emergency measures.

[0067] In this embodiment, the danger level of the foreign object is primary, indicating that the threat level of the foreign object to vehicle safety is relatively low. At this time, basic measures such as voice prompts and seat belt pre-tightening can be taken to deal with the current foreign object intrusion situation.

[0068] Among them, voice prompts are used to guide users to take preset emergency measures. For example, step on the brakes, turn the steering wheel slightly, etc., to avoid foreign objects as much as possible and prevent foreign objects from invading the car body. The seat belt pretensioner is used to eliminate the gap between the seat belt and the human body, reduce the forward displacement of the human chest, thereby ensuring that the occupants remain in a safe position and reduce the secondary damage caused by the collision impact to the occupants.

[0069] S402: When the danger level of the foreign object is medium, the second safety strategy is used to control the vehicle; the second safety strategy includes activating the seat belt pretensioner, issuing a voice prompt, activating the target airbag, and activating the automatic braking system.

[0070] In this embodiment, when the danger level of the foreign object is intermediate, more caution is required compared to the primary level. At this time, in addition to taking basic measures such as voice prompts and seat belt pre-tightening, protective measures such as activating the target airbag and activating the automatic braking system are also required to reduce the damage to the occupants caused by the intrusion of foreign objects.

[0071] Airbags are installed in many places in the car, such as the center of the steering wheel, the dashboard on the passenger side, the side of the seat, under the dashboard, and in the roof, etc., to provide effective anti-collision protection for passengers. The automatic braking system can automatically decelerate or brake to reduce the damage caused by foreign object collision and minimize the severity of foreign object intrusion accidents, especially in complex road environments, which helps to further ensure the safety of passengers.

[0072] Optionally, the intrusion parameter includes an intrusion position of the foreign object; the above method also includes: determining the airbag corresponding to the intrusion position as a target airbag.

[0073] In this embodiment, when the danger level of the foreign object is medium, the impact of the foreign object intrusion on the vehicle is usually localized and will not cause comprehensive and serious safety impact on the vehicle. At this time, when opening the airbags, there is no need to open all the airbags. It is only necessary to open the corresponding part of the airbags according to the location of the foreign object intrusion, so as to save costs while ensuring the safety of the occupants.

[0074] For example, when it is detected that foreign matter has entered through the front windshield, the airbags at the center of the front steering wheel, the dashboard on the passenger side, etc. are identified as target airbags and opened; when it is detected that foreign matter has entered through the roof, the airbags at the roof, seats, etc. are identified as target airbags and opened to reduce the direct impact on the occupants.

[0075] S403: When the danger level of the foreign object is high, the third safety strategy is used to control the vehicle; the third safety strategy includes activating the seat belt pretensioner, issuing a voice prompt, activating all airbags, activating the automatic braking system, activating the body protection system and issuing an emergency signal, wherein the emergency signal contains the vehicle's location information and accident information.

[0076] In this embodiment, when the danger level of the foreign object is high, it means that the intrusion of the foreign object will cause comprehensive and serious safety impact on the vehicle. At this time, in addition to activating the seat belt pretensioner, issuing voice prompts, activating the airbag, and activating the automatic braking system, all other safety measures must be taken, including activating the body protection system, issuing an emergency call signal, etc., to comprehensively protect the vehicle and minimize the risk of casualties.

[0077] Among them, by sending an emergency distress signal to the nearest emergency service center and uploading the vehicle's location information and accident data, the service center's security personnel can promptly understand the current vehicle's accident situation, and then implement rescue as quickly as possible to reduce the possibility of secondary accidents.

[0078] It should be noted that the above steps S401-S403 are parallel measures in three different situations and there is no order of precedence.

[0079] The safety response mechanism of this embodiment can quickly trigger the corresponding safety strategy when the danger level of foreign body intrusion is detected, so as to take various protective measures in advance, such as airbag deployment, seat belt pretensioner activation, etc., to significantly reduce the probability of injury to passengers in accidents. This hierarchical real-time response mechanism can be applied to various dangerous scenarios of foreign body intrusion and has wide applicability.
