[0045] 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.

[0046] The embodiment of the present invention discloses an intelligent driving method and related devices. After obtaining a cruise novice mode activation instruction, a vehicle is controlled to enter the cruise novice mode based on the cruise novice mode activation instruction. Since at least one intelligent driving function switch associated with the cruise novice mode is set to a conservative state, the vehicle can adopt a more cautious and conservative driving strategy in the cruise novice mode. Therefore, for users who are not familiar with the advanced navigation assisted driving function, while ensuring the experience of the navigation assisted driving function, the safety hazards caused by unfamiliarity with the advanced navigation assisted driving function can be reduced to a certain extent.

[0047] See also Figure 1 , an embodiment of the present invention discloses a flow chart of an intelligent driving method, the intelligent driving method is applied to a vehicle controller, and the intelligent driving method may include:

[0048] Step S101, obtaining a cruise novice mode activation instruction.

[0049] The cruise novice mode in this application is mainly set for users who do not understand the advanced navigation assisted driving function. To facilitate user use, the cruise novice mode can be turned on by default when the vehicle leaves the factory.

[0050] Currently, a cruise novice mode button can also be set on the vehicle's central control screen, so that the user can decide whether to turn on the cruise novice mode according to actual needs. In this application, the user can send a cruise novice mode turn-on instruction to the vehicle controller by touching the cruise novice mode button.

[0051] Among them, the cruise in the cruise novice mode in this application may include: fixed speed cruise, adaptive cruise, and NOA (Navigate on Autopilot, navigation assisted driving).

[0052] Step S102: controlling the vehicle to enter the novice cruise mode based on the novice cruise mode start instruction.

[0053] The cruise novice mode is associated with at least one intelligent driving function switch, and at least one intelligent driving function switch is set to a conservative state.

[0054] The "conservative state" of the intelligent driving function switch usually refers to a more cautious and safe working mode adopted by the intelligent driving assistance system during operation. In this state, the intelligent driving system may limit the activation of certain advanced functions, or increase the requirements for driver monitoring and takeover, etc., to ensure safety and reliability during driving.

[0055] The "aggressive state" of the intelligent driving function switch usually refers to a more active and proactive working mode adopted by the intelligent driving assistance system during operation. In this state, the intelligent driving system may enable some advanced functions and reduce the monitoring and takeover requirements for the driver, but it will bring some safety risks to the driving process.

[0056] The study found that some novice drivers, not understanding the performance boundaries of advanced intelligent driving functions, set aggressive state options in the advanced intelligent driving personalized switch settings, resulting in users not understanding and / or not understanding the vehicle's control intentions, and even problems with timeouts and failure to take over.

[0057] For example, some novice drivers do not have a clear understanding of the concept of "eyes on the loop" during intelligent driving, and adjust the broadcast simplicity to "simple", resulting in some vehicles not being able to hear the intended broadcast. Another example is the working condition of "about to overtake and change lanes to the left", which requires the user to observe the road conditions. If the novice driver cannot hear the broadcast reminder or does not know how to observe the road conditions, it is easy to have safety hazards during driving.

[0058] To solve the above problems, this application sets up a cruise novice mode. When the vehicle enters the cruise novice mode, the intelligent driving function switches are set to a conservative state to improve the safety and reliability of the driving process. In the cruise novice mode, the intelligent driving system may turn off or limit some advanced functions, such as increasing the requirements for "eyes on the ring" during the intelligent driving process, reducing the duration of the driver's single hand-off and eye-off, adjusting the broadcast conciseness to "standard", and showing all the capabilities of the vehicle's intention broadcast to novice users, so as to improve novice users' perception of the intention of assisted driving, so that novice drivers are always ready to take over the vehicle. For example, in the working condition of "about to overtake and change lanes to the left", it is necessary to remind the novice intelligent driving driver that the assisted driving is about to control the vehicle to overtake and change lanes, and remind the novice intelligent driving driver to observe the road conditions to avoid safety hazards caused by novice drivers not observing road conditions.

[0059] In addition, in the cruise novice mode, the intelligent driving system may shut down or limit some advanced functions, such as automatic lane change and autonomous parking, which not only reduces potential risks, but also may reduce the level of autonomous driving from a higher level of autonomous driving (such as L3 or L4) to a lower level (such as L2). In other words, the intelligent driving system will adopt a more cautious and conservative driving strategy to reduce potential risks and dangers.

[0060] In actual applications, the intelligent driving function switch associated with the cruise novice mode can be one or more types. For example, the intelligent driving function switch associated with the cruise novice mode can be any one or more types of overtaking lane change style switch, hands-off alarm sensitivity switch, intelligent driving voice broadcast switch, and vehicle alarm sound switch.

[0061] When the vehicle enters the cruise novice mode, all intelligent driving function switches associated with the cruise novice mode are set to a conservative state. For example, the overtaking lane change style switch is set to a conservative state, the hands-off alarm sensitivity switch is set to normal mode to be in a conservative state, the intelligent driving voice broadcast switch is set to standard mode to be in a conservative state, and the vehicle alarm sound switch is set to high (that is, maximum mode) to be in a conservative state.

[0062] Among them, after the vehicle enters the cruise novice mode, the working mode when all intelligent driving function switches associated with the cruise novice mode are in a conservative state is determined by the corresponding intelligent driving function.

[0063] In summary, the present invention discloses an intelligent driving method, which controls a vehicle to enter the novice cruise mode based on the novice cruise mode start instruction after obtaining the novice cruise mode start instruction, and since at least one intelligent driving function switch associated with the novice cruise mode is set to a conservative state, the vehicle can adopt a more cautious and conservative driving strategy in the novice cruise mode. Therefore, for users who are not familiar with the advanced navigation assisted driving function, while ensuring the experience of the navigation assisted driving function, the safety hazards caused by unfamiliarity with the advanced navigation assisted driving function can be reduced to a certain extent.

[0064] When the vehicle is in the cruise novice mode, in order to improve the safety of vehicle driving, the present application prevents the working state of each intelligent driving function switch associated with the cruise novice mode from being changed to the aggressive state.

[0065] Therefore, in one embodiment, the intelligent driving method may further include:

[0066] When the vehicle is in the cruise novice mode, the working state of the at least one intelligent driving function switch associated with the cruise novice mode is set to a locked state.

[0067] In order to prevent the vehicle user from mistakenly switching the intelligent driving function switch associated with the cruise novice mode from a conservative state to an aggressive state when the vehicle is in the cruise novice mode, thereby causing safety hazards, the present application sets the working states of all intelligent driving function switches associated with the cruise novice mode to a locked state when the vehicle is in the cruise novice mode. For example, all intelligent driving function switches associated with the cruise novice mode are set to gray for locking, so that the vehicle user cannot adjust the working state of the intelligent driving function switch, and further cannot switch the intelligent driving function switch from a conservative state to an aggressive state, so as to improve the safety of vehicle driving.

[0068] For an example, see Figure 2 , it is assumed that the intelligent driving function switches associated with the cruise novice mode include: a vehicle alarm sound switch and an intelligent driving voice broadcast switch.

[0069] Among them, the vehicle alarm sound switch includes three modes: low, medium and high. When the vehicle alarm sound switch is "low", it is determined that the vehicle alarm sound switch is in an aggressive state. When the vehicle alarm sound switch is "high", it is determined that the vehicle alarm sound switch is in a conservative state.

[0070] The smart driving voice broadcast switch includes three modes: off, standard and simple. When the smart driving voice broadcast switch is "off", it is determined that the smart driving voice broadcast switch is in an aggressive state. When the smart driving voice broadcast switch is "standard", it is determined that the smart driving voice broadcast switch is in a conservative state.

[0071] When the vehicle has not entered the cruise novice mode, assuming that the vehicle alarm sound switch is in the "low" mode and the smart driving voice broadcast switch is in the "off" mode, at this time, the modes of the vehicle alarm sound switch and the smart driving voice broadcast switch can be adjusted.

[0072] When the cruise mode is turned on and the vehicle enters the cruise mode, the vehicle warning sound switch is "high" to be in a conservative state, and the intelligent driving voice broadcast switch is "standard" to be in a conservative state. At this time, the modes of the vehicle warning sound switch and the intelligent driving voice broadcast switch cannot be adjusted.

[0073] It is understandable that when the vehicle is in a mode other than the cruise novice mode, for example, the vehicle is in the navigation mode, the intelligent driving function switch can be switched between the conservative state and the aggressive state. In order to improve the safety of vehicle driving, the present application sets that when the vehicle is in the cruise novice mode, all intelligent driving function switches associated with the cruise novice mode cannot be adjusted from the conservative state to the aggressive state.

[0074] Therefore, in one embodiment, see Figure 3 , another intelligent driving method flow chart disclosed in an embodiment of the present invention, the intelligent driving method may include

[0075] Step S201: Obtain adjustment instructions for the cruise novice mode.

[0076] In actual application, the adjustment command of the cruise novice mode can be sent by operating the vehicle central control screen. The adjustment command can be an intelligent driving function deletion command for deleting the intelligent driving function switch associated with the cruise novice mode, or an intelligent driving function addition command for adding the type of intelligent driving function switch associated with the cruise novice mode.

[0077] Step S202: determine whether the vehicle is in the cruise novice mode. If yes, execute step S203.

[0078] Step S203: outputting a prompt message indicating that the adjustment instruction cannot be effective.

[0079] In practical applications, the prompt information may be a voice reminder, a text reminder, etc., which depends on actual needs and is not limited in the present invention.

[0080] In summary, the present application aims to improve the safety of vehicle driving and prevent the user from accidentally switching the intelligent driving function switch associated with the cruise novice mode from a conservative state to an aggressive state due to improper operation by the user. After receiving an adjustment instruction for at least one intelligent driving function switch associated with the cruise novice mode, it is first determined whether the vehicle is in the cruise novice mode. If it is determined that the vehicle is in the cruise novice mode, a prompt message indicating that the adjustment instruction cannot take effect is output to prevent the user from accidentally switching the intelligent driving function switch associated with the cruise novice mode from a conservative state to an aggressive state, thereby reducing the safety hazards of vehicle driving to a certain extent.

[0081] In one embodiment, when the judgment in step S202 is no, the following may also be included:

[0082] Step S204: Execute corresponding adjustment operations according to the adjustment instruction.

[0083] When determining that the vehicle is not in the cruise novice mode, the present application can perform corresponding operations according to the user's adjustment requirements for the vehicle, such as adjusting the vehicle alarm sound to "medium".

[0084] It should be noted that, in the present application, when the vehicle is in the cruise novice mode, the intelligent driving function switch associated with the cruise novice mode cannot be adjusted. However, when the vehicle is not in the cruise novice mode, the intelligent driving function switch associated with the cruise novice mode can be adjusted, for example, the intelligent driving function switch associated with the cruise novice mode can be added, or the intelligent driving function switch associated with the cruise novice mode can be deleted.

[0085] In one embodiment, for the case where the adjustment instruction is a smart driving function deletion instruction, see Figure 4 , another intelligent driving method flow chart disclosed in an embodiment of the present invention, the intelligent driving method may include:

[0086] Step S301: Obtain an adjustment instruction for the cruise novice mode.

[0087] In this embodiment, the adjustment instruction is an intelligent driving function deletion instruction.

[0088] Step S302: determine whether the vehicle is in the cruise novice mode, if not, execute step S303.

[0089] Step S303: In response to the adjustment instruction being an intelligent driving function deletion instruction, extracting a first driving function switch identifier to be deleted from the intelligent driving function deletion instruction.

[0090] In actual application, when a certain intelligent driving function switch associated with the cruise novice mode needs to be deleted, the intelligent driving function deletion instruction will carry the first driving function switch identifier corresponding to the first target intelligent driving function switch to be deleted.

[0091] Step S304: determine a corresponding first target intelligent driving function switch according to the first driving function switch identifier.

[0092] In practical applications, there is a unique correspondence between the first target intelligent driving function switch and the corresponding first driving function switch identifier, so that the unique corresponding first target intelligent driving function switch can be determined according to the first driving function switch identifier.

[0093] Step S305: Control the first target intelligent driving function switch to disassociate from the cruise novice mode.

[0094] In summary, the present application controls the disassociation between the first target intelligent driving function switch and the cruise novice mode, so that after the vehicle enters the cruise novice mode, the state of the first target intelligent driving function switch is no longer limited to the conservative state, and the user can actually decide to set the state of the first target intelligent driving function switch to a conservative state or an aggressive state. By adopting the disassociation method disclosed in the present application, the user can decide which intelligent driving function switches need to be disassociated from the cruise novice mode according to their own needs, thereby meeting the personalized setting needs under different vehicle operating conditions.

[0095] In one embodiment, for the case where the adjustment instruction is to add an instruction to the intelligent driving function, see Figure 5 , another intelligent driving method flow chart disclosed in an embodiment of the present invention, the intelligent driving method may include:

[0096] Step S401: Obtain an adjustment instruction for the cruise novice mode.

[0097] Among them, the adjustment instruction in this embodiment is an instruction to add the intelligent driving function.

[0098] Step S402: determine whether the vehicle is in the cruise novice mode, if not, execute step S403.

[0099] Step S403: In response to the adjustment instruction being the intelligent driving function adding instruction, extracting a second driving function switch identifier to be added from the intelligent driving function adding instruction.

[0100] In actual application, when it is necessary to add a new intelligent driving function switch in the cruise novice mode, the intelligent driving function adding instruction will carry the second driving function switch identifier corresponding to the second target intelligent driving function switch to be added.

[0101] Step S404: determine a corresponding second target intelligent driving function switch according to the second driving function switch identifier.

[0102] In practical applications, there is a unique corresponding relationship between the second driving function switch identifier and the second target intelligent driving function switch, so that the unique corresponding second target intelligent driving function switch can be determined according to the second driving function switch identifier.

[0103] Step S405: Control the second target intelligent driving function switch to establish an association relationship with the cruise novice mode.

[0104] In summary, the present application establishes an association relationship between the second target intelligent driving function switch and the cruise novice mode by controlling the second target intelligent driving function switch, so that after the vehicle enters the cruise novice mode, the state of the second target intelligent driving function switch becomes a conservative state, so that for users who do not understand the high-level navigation assisted driving function, while ensuring the experience of the navigation assisted driving function, the safety hazards caused by unfamiliarity with the high-level navigation assisted driving function can be reduced to a certain extent. In addition, by adopting the association establishment method disclosed in the present application, users can decide which intelligent driving function switches need to be associated with the cruise novice mode according to their own needs, thereby meeting the personalized setting requirements under different vehicle operating conditions.

[0105] It is understandable that smart driving safety switches play a vital role in vehicles, and their main function is to provide additional safety protection to ensure the safety of vehicles and passengers under specific circumstances. Smart driving safety switches include automatic emergency braking switches, lane departure warning switches, door opening warning switches, front collision warning switches, emergency steering avoidance switches, rear collision warning switches, etc. Under normal circumstances, smart driving safety switches are usually in an aggressive state to ensure the safety of vehicles and passengers under specific circumstances. If these smart driving safety switches are set to a conservative state, the safety of vehicles and passengers will be reduced. Based on this, this application stipulates that only non-intelligent driving safety switches can establish an association relationship with the cruise novice mode.

[0106] In one embodiment, step S405 may specifically include:

[0107] Determining whether the second target intelligent driving function switch is a preset intelligent driving safety switch;

[0108] If not, control the second target intelligent driving function switch to establish an association relationship with the cruise novice mode.

[0109] Among them, the preset intelligent driving safety switches include but are not limited to automatic emergency braking switch, lane departure warning switch, door opening warning switch, front collision warning switch, emergency steering avoidance switch, and rear collision warning switch.

[0110] In one embodiment, if the second target intelligent driving function switch is a preset intelligent driving safety type switch, a notification of failure to establish an association relationship between the second target intelligent driving function switch and the cruise novice mode is output.

[0111] In summary, in the process of controlling the second target intelligent driving function switch to establish an association with the cruise novice mode, the present application first needs to determine whether the second target intelligent driving function switch is a preset intelligent driving safety switch. Only when the second target intelligent driving function switch is not a preset intelligent driving safety switch, the second target intelligent driving function switch is controlled to establish an association with the cruise novice mode. Usually, under normal circumstances, the intelligent driving safety switch is in an aggressive state to ensure the safety of the vehicle and passengers under specific circumstances, while the intelligent driving function switches in the cruise novice mode are all in a conservative state. The present application limits the establishment of an association with the cruise novice mode by limiting that only non-intelligent driving safety switches can be associated with the cruise novice mode, thereby ensuring the safety of the vehicle and passengers under specific circumstances while meeting the user's personalized setting requirements under different vehicle operating conditions.

[0112] In one embodiment, after the vehicle enters the cruise novice mode, the intelligent driving method may further include:

[0113] Get the command to exit the cruise novice mode;

[0114] Based on the cruise novice mode exit instruction, the vehicle is controlled to exit the cruise novice mode, and the at least one intelligent driving function switch associated with the cruise novice mode is restored to a memory value before the vehicle enters the cruise novice mode.

[0115] In actual application, the user can input the cruise novice mode exit command to the vehicle controller through the cruise novice mode button set on the vehicle's central control screen. Since the working state of the smart driving function switch associated with the cruise novice mode is locked when the vehicle is in the cruise novice mode, when the vehicle exits the cruise novice mode, the smart driving function switch associated with the cruise novice mode needs to be restored to the memory value before the vehicle enters the cruise novice mode, so as to restore the state before the vehicle enters the cruise novice mode.

[0116] For an example, see Figure 6, assuming that the smart driving function switches associated with the cruise novice mode include: vehicle alarm sound switch and smart driving voice broadcast switch. When the vehicle enters the cruise novice mode, the vehicle alarm sound switch is "high" to be in a conservative state, and the smart driving voice broadcast switch is "standard" to be in a conservative state. At this time, the modes of the vehicle alarm sound switch and the smart driving voice broadcast switch cannot be adjusted.

[0117] When the vehicle exits the cruise novice mode, the vehicle alarm sound switch returns to the "low" mode, and the smart driving voice broadcast switch returns to the "off" mode. At this time, the modes of the vehicle alarm sound switch and the smart driving voice broadcast switch can be adjusted.

[0118] Corresponding to the above method embodiment, the present invention also discloses an intelligent driving device.

[0119] See also Figure 7 , a schematic diagram of the structure of an intelligent driving device disclosed in an embodiment of the present invention, the device is applied to a vehicle controller, and the intelligent driving device may include:

[0120] The start instruction acquisition unit 501 is used to acquire a cruise novice mode start instruction.

[0121] The cruise novice mode in this application is mainly set for users who do not understand the advanced navigation assisted driving function. To facilitate user use, the cruise novice mode can be turned on by default when the vehicle leaves the factory.

[0122] Currently, a cruise novice mode button can also be set on the vehicle's central control screen, so that the user can decide whether to turn on the cruise novice mode according to actual needs. In this application, the user can send a cruise novice mode turn-on instruction to the vehicle controller by touching the cruise novice mode button.

[0123] Among them, the cruise in the cruise novice mode in this application may include: fixed speed cruise, adaptive cruise, and NOA (Navigate on Autopilot, navigation assisted driving).

[0124] The cruise novice mode entry unit 502 is used to control the vehicle to enter the cruise novice mode based on the cruise novice mode start instruction.

[0125] Among them, at least one intelligent driving function switch associated with the cruise novice mode is set to a conservative state.

[0126] The intelligent driving function switches are all set to a conservative state to improve the safety and reliability of the driving process. In this state, the intelligent driving system may turn off or limit some advanced functions, such as automatic lane change and autonomous parking, to reduce potential risks, and may also reduce the level of autonomous driving from a higher level of autonomous driving (such as L3 or L4) to a lower level (such as L2). In other words, the intelligent driving system will adopt a more cautious and conservative driving strategy to reduce potential risks and dangers.

[0127] In actual applications, the intelligent driving function switch associated with the cruise novice mode can be one or more types. For example, the intelligent driving function switch associated with the cruise novice mode can be any one or more types of overtaking lane change style switch, hands-off alarm sensitivity switch, intelligent driving voice broadcast switch, and vehicle alarm sound switch.

[0128] When the vehicle enters the cruise novice mode, all intelligent driving function switches associated with the cruise novice mode are set to a conservative state. For example, the overtaking lane change style switch is set to a conservative state, the hands-off alarm sensitivity switch is set to normal mode to be in a conservative state, the intelligent driving voice broadcast switch is set to standard mode to be in a conservative state, and the vehicle alarm sound switch is set to high (that is, maximum mode) to be in a conservative state.

[0129] Among them, after the vehicle enters the cruise novice mode, the working mode when all intelligent driving function switches associated with the cruise novice mode are in a conservative state is determined by the corresponding intelligent driving function.

[0130] In summary, the present invention discloses an intelligent driving device, which controls a vehicle to enter the novice cruise mode based on the novice cruise mode start instruction after obtaining the novice cruise mode start instruction. Since at least one intelligent driving function switch associated with the novice cruise mode is set to a conservative state, the vehicle can adopt a more cautious and conservative driving strategy in the novice cruise mode. Therefore, for users who are not familiar with the advanced navigation assisted driving function, while ensuring the experience of the navigation assisted driving function, the safety hazards caused by unfamiliarity with the advanced navigation assisted driving function can be reduced to a certain extent.

[0131] In one embodiment, the intelligent driving device may further include:

[0134] An adjustment instruction acquisition unit, used to acquire an adjustment instruction for the cruise novice mode;

[0135] A judging unit, used for judging whether the vehicle is in the cruise novice mode;

[0136] The prompt information output unit is used to output a prompt information that the adjustment instruction cannot take effect when the vehicle is in the cruise novice mode.

[0137] In one embodiment, the intelligent driving device may further include:

[0138] a deletion response unit, configured to extract a first driving function switch identifier to be deleted from the intelligent driving function deletion instruction in response to the adjustment instruction being an intelligent driving function deletion instruction when the vehicle is not in the cruise novice mode;

[0139] A first determining unit, configured to determine a corresponding first target intelligent driving function switch according to the first driving function switch identifier;

[0140] An association removal unit is used to control the first target intelligent driving function switch to remove the association with the cruise novice mode.

[0141] In one embodiment, the intelligent driving device may further include:
