Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of vehicle technology, and more specifically, to a method, device, vehicle and storage medium for controlling a vehicle in the field of vehicle technology. Background Art

[0002] At night or in a dimly lit parking lot, when a user wants to open the door and get in the car, he or she generally needs to rely on other light sources (such as a flashlight) to find the door handle, and then pull the door handle to open the door. If the user does not carry a tool that can provide light, he or she needs to manually feel around to find the door handle, which is very inconvenient. Summary of the invention

[0003] The present application provides a method, device, vehicle and storage medium for controlling a vehicle. The method can enable a user to quickly and easily find a door handle to open the door in a dimly lit environment, thereby improving the user experience.

[0004] In a first aspect, a method for controlling a vehicle is provided, the method comprising: when a door unlocking command of the vehicle is received, determining whether the vehicle meets a condition for turning on a door handle light; when the vehicle meets the condition for turning on the door handle light, controlling the vehicle to unlock the door and turn on the door handle light.

[0005] In the above technical solution, when the vehicle meets the conditions for turning on the door handle light, the vehicle door is controlled to be unlocked and the door handle light is turned on; since the door handle light can also be turned on when the door is unlocked, the user can quickly find the door handle in a dark environment, which is convenient for the user to open the door and improve the user experience. In addition, turning on the door handle light can also attract the attention of people or animals around to avoid safety accidents.

[0006] In combination with the first aspect, in some possible implementations, determining whether the vehicle meets the conditions for turning on the door handle lights includes: determining whether the vehicle meets the conditions for turning on the door handle lights based on the trigger time of the door unlocking command; or determining whether the vehicle meets the conditions for turning on the door handle lights based on the light information of the vehicle's environment.

[0007] In combination with the first aspect and the above-mentioned implementation methods, in some possible implementation methods, whether the vehicle meets the conditions for turning on the door handle lights is judged according to the trigger time of the door unlocking command, including: if the trigger time is after the preset time, determining that the vehicle meets the conditions for turning on the door handle lights.

[0008] In combination with the first aspect and the above-mentioned implementation methods, in some possible implementation methods, whether the vehicle meets the conditions for turning on the door handle lights is judged based on the light information in the vehicle's environment, including: determining the light intensity of the current environment based on the light information; when the light intensity is lower than a preset light intensity threshold, determining that the vehicle meets the conditions for turning on the door handle lights.

[0009] In the above technical solution, when the trigger time of the unlocking command is after the preset time, or when the light intensity in the environment where the vehicle is located is lower than the preset light intensity threshold, it is determined that the vehicle meets the conditions for turning on the door handle light, and then the door handle light is controlled to be turned on. This can avoid turning on the door handle light when the unlocking command is triggered at any time, and only control the door handle light to be turned on under the set conditions. This can not only meet the user's needs to quickly find the door handle, but also save power.

[0010] In combination with the first aspect and the above-mentioned implementation methods, in some possible implementation methods, the method also includes: when it is detected that the vehicle door is opened, controlling the vehicle's ambient light and / or welcome light to turn on; when the ambient light and / or welcome light are turned on for longer than a preset time, controlling the ambient light and / or welcome light to turn off; or, when it is detected that the vehicle is in driving state, controlling the ambient light and / or welcome light to turn off.

[0011] In the above technical solution, when it is detected that the vehicle door is opened, the ambient light and / or the welcome light of the vehicle are controlled to turn on. The ambient light can create a comfortable atmosphere for the user. Turning on the ambient light when the door is opened can make the user relax after getting in the car, thereby improving the user experience. Controlling the welcome light to turn on when the door is opened can illuminate the environment around the door, improve the safety of opening or closing the door, and at the same time, it can also improve the grade of the vehicle and enhance the user experience.

[0012] In addition, in the above technical solution, when the ambient light and / or the welcome light are turned on for longer than the preset time, the ambient light and / or the welcome light are controlled to be turned off to save power; when it is detected that the vehicle is in driving state, the ambient light and / or the welcome light are controlled to be turned off to avoid the ambient light and / or the welcome light interfering with the owner's line of sight and affecting driving safety.

[0013] In combination with the first aspect and the above-mentioned implementation methods, in some possible implementation methods, the method also includes: when a vehicle door unlocking command is received, obtaining the current speed of the vehicle; if the current speed is greater than or equal to the preset speed, controlling the door to be in a locked state.

[0014] In the above technical solution, when the vehicle speed is greater than or equal to the preset speed, the door is controlled to be locked, that is, when the vehicle speed is greater than a certain value, the door cannot be unlocked. This can avoid safety accidents caused by users misunderstanding the lock during vehicle driving, thereby improving driving safety.

[0015] In combination with the first aspect and the above-mentioned implementation methods, in some possible implementation methods, when the vehicle is parked and the power is off, the method also includes: if the vehicle is powered on, detecting whether there is current in the motor of the door; if no current is detected in the motor, controlling the motor in the door to reset.

[0016] In the above technical solution, if no current is detected in the motor, the motor in the door can be controlled to be reset; since no current is detected in the motor in the door, it means that the motor may be faulty; at this time, controlling the motor in the door to be reset can avoid secondary damage to the motor; through the solution of the present application, effective protection measures can be ensured for the motor in the vehicle.

[0017] In combination with the first aspect and the above-mentioned implementation methods, in some possible implementation methods, the method also includes: generating a door unlocking instruction in response to a user's touch operation on the outer handle of the vehicle door; or, generating a door unlocking instruction in response to a user's pressing operation on the switch of the outer handle; or, generating a door unlocking instruction in response to a user's touch operation on the inner handle of the vehicle door.

[0018] In the above technical solution, a variety of triggering methods for the door unlocking command are provided, and the method of unlocking the door can be selected according to the user's habits or the needs of different users, thereby improving the user experience.

[0019] In a second aspect, a device for controlling a vehicle is provided, the device comprising:

[0020] A judgment module, used to judge whether the vehicle meets the conditions for turning on the door handle light when receiving a door unlocking command of the vehicle;

[0021] The first control module is used to control the vehicle door to be unlocked and the door handle light to be turned on when the vehicle meets the conditions for turning on the door handle light.

[0022] In combination with the second aspect, in some possible implementations, the judgment module includes a judgment unit, which is used to judge whether the vehicle meets the conditions for turning on the door handle light based on the trigger time of the door unlocking command; or, based on the light information of the vehicle's environment, to judge whether the vehicle meets the conditions for turning on the door handle light.

[0023] In combination with the second aspect and the above-mentioned implementation manner, in some possible implementation manners, the judgment unit is specifically used to determine that the vehicle meets the conditions for turning on the door handle light if the trigger time is after a preset time.

[0024] In combination with the second aspect and the above-mentioned implementation methods, in some possible implementation methods, the judgment unit is also used to determine the light intensity of the current environment based on the light information; when the light intensity is lower than a preset light intensity threshold, it is determined that the vehicle meets the conditions for turning on the door handle lights.

[0025] In combination with the second aspect and the above-mentioned implementation methods, in some possible implementation methods, the device also includes: a second control module, used to control the vehicle's ambient light and / or welcome light to turn on when it is detected that the vehicle door is opened; a third control module, used to control the ambient light and / or welcome light to turn off when the ambient light and / or welcome light are turned on for longer than a preset time; or, when it is detected that the vehicle is in driving state, control the ambient light and / or welcome light to turn off.

[0026] In combination with the second aspect and the above-mentioned implementation methods, in some possible implementation methods, the device also includes: an acquisition module, which is used to obtain the current speed of the vehicle when a door unlocking command of the vehicle is received; and a fourth control module, which is used to control the door to be in a locked state if the current speed is greater than or equal to a preset speed.

[0039] The technical solution in the present application will be described clearly and in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. In the description of the embodiments of the present application, unless otherwise specified, " / " means or, for example, A / B can mean A or B: "and / or" in the text is only a description of the association relationship of associated objects, indicating that there can be three relationships, for example, A and / or B can mean: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone. In addition, in the description of the embodiments of the present application, "multiple" means two or more than two.

[0040] In the following, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and are not to be understood as suggesting or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features.

[0041] Figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of a scenario provided in an embodiment of the present application.

[0042] For example, Figure 1 As shown in FIG, the door handle 120 of the vehicle 100 is provided with a door handle light, which can be installed on the inside of the door handle or on the outside of the door handle. It should be understood that the style, quantity and specific location of the door handle light installed on the door handle are not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present application.

[0043] Optionally, a welcome light is provided on the rearview mirror 110 of the vehicle 100 and inside the door to illuminate the ground, thereby improving the grade of the vehicle and enhancing the visual experience of the user.

[0044] Optionally, the vehicle 100 is provided with ambient lights, including door ambient lights, instrument panel ambient lights, central control screen ambient lights, etc., for enhancing the in-vehicle atmosphere and relieving user fatigue, etc.

[0045] For example, in Figure 1 In a scenario where the vehicle is in a dark environment (such as at night, in an underground parking lot), the user wants to open the door and get in the vehicle. Due to the dim light, the user cannot find the door handle quickly and accurately, and needs to use other light sources (such as a flashlight) to find the door handle; if the user does not carry other light sources, he can only rely on manual groping to find the door handle, which is very inconvenient and the user experience is poor.

[0046] In response to the above technical problems, the present application provides a method, device, vehicle and storage medium for controlling a vehicle, which can enable the user to quickly and easily find the door handle to open the door in a dimly lit environment, thereby improving the user experience.

[0047] Figure 2 is a schematic flow chart of a method for controlling a vehicle provided in an embodiment of the present application. It should be understood that the method can be applied to Figure 1 The execution subject may be a computing and processing functional unit or module on the vehicle, such as a vehicle host, a vehicle main control unit (Electronic Control Unit, ECU), etc.

[0048] For example, Figure 2 As shown, the method 200 includes:

[0049] S210, when a door unlocking command of the vehicle is received, determining whether the vehicle meets the condition for turning on the door handle light.

[0050] The door unlock command is used to unlock the door, and the door unlock command can be generated in any of the following ways:

[0051] Method 1: receiving a voice command from the user, the voice command carrying information for unlocking the door, and generating a door unlocking command through the voice command.

[0052] Method 2: Receive the control signal from the vehicle remote control key and generate a door unlocking command.

[0053] Method 3: Receive an operation instruction from the user via a terminal device connected to the vehicle, and generate a door unlocking instruction.

[0054] Mode 4: In response to the user's touch operation on the outer handle of the vehicle door, a vehicle door unlocking instruction is generated.

[0055] Mode 5: In response to a user pressing a switch of an outer door handle, a door unlocking instruction is generated.

[0056] Mode 6: In response to the user's touch operation on the inner handle of the vehicle door, a door unlocking instruction is generated.

[0057] It should be understood that the above method of generating door unlocking is only an example, and the door unlocking instruction can also be generated by other methods, which is not specifically limited in this application.

[0058] Further, it is determined whether the vehicle meets the conditions for turning on the door handle light.

[0059] It should be understood that after receiving the door unlocking command, the embodiment of the present application will not directly turn on the door handle light, but will first determine whether the conditions for turning on the door handle light are currently met. When the conditions for turning on are met, the door handle light is controlled to turn on.

[0060] Optionally, when the vehicle does not meet the conditions for turning on the door handle lights, only the doors may be unlocked while the door handle lights are controlled to be off.

[0061] In some embodiments, the process of determining whether the vehicle meets the conditions for turning on the door handle lights may be: determining whether the vehicle meets the conditions for turning on the door handle lights based on the triggering time of the door unlocking command; or determining whether the vehicle meets the conditions for turning on the door handle lights based on the light information of the vehicle's environment.

[0062] It should be understood that the door handle light generally needs to be turned on after a certain time in the evening (e.g., 7 p.m.), or in a dimly lit environment, such as at night, in a parking lot, etc. Therefore, it is possible to determine whether the vehicle meets the conditions for turning on the door handle light based on the triggering time of the door unlocking command, or to determine whether the vehicle meets the conditions for turning on the door handle light based on the light information.

[0063] In some embodiments, based on the triggering time of the door unlocking instruction, the process of determining whether the vehicle meets the conditions for turning on the door handle lights may be as follows: if the triggering time is after a preset time, determining that the vehicle meets the conditions for turning on the door handle lights.

[0064] Among them, the triggering time of the door unlocking command is the time when the user initiates the door unlocking command, such as the time when the user touches the door handle, and the time when the user presses the door unlocking button of the vehicle remote control key.

[0065] Among them, the preset time can be the time when it is about to get dark in a day. When the trigger time of the vehicle unlocking command is before the preset time, it can be understood that the light is stronger at the current moment. When the trigger time of the vehicle unlocking command is after the preset time, it can be understood that the light is darker at the current moment.

[0066] The preset time can be adjusted according to the season, for example, in winter, the preset time can be set to 6 o'clock, and in summer, the preset time can be set to 7:30; it can also be determined according to the region and season where the vehicle is located, for example, in the summer in the north, the preset time can be set to 7 o'clock, in the winter in the north, the preset time can be set to 6 o'clock; in the summer in the south, the preset time can be set to 8 o'clock; in the winter in the south, the preset time can be set to 6 o'clock. The above is only an example, and the specific value of the preset time is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present application.

[0067] Optionally, if the triggering time of the door unlocking instruction is after the first preset time and before the second preset time, it is determined that the vehicle meets the condition for turning on the door handle light.

[0068] The first preset time may be the time when it gets dark in one day, and the second preset time may be the time when it gets light the next day. The first preset time may be the same as the above preset time, such as 7 o'clock; the second preset time may be set according to actual conditions, such as 8 o'clock in the morning.

[0069] For example, when the user initiates a door unlock command, if the current time is between 7 p.m. and 8 a.m., the light is considered dim and the door handle light is turned on; if the current time is not between 7 p.m. and 8 a.m., the door is unlocked and the door handle light is turned off.

[0070] In some embodiments, based on the light information of the vehicle's environment, the process of determining whether the vehicle meets the conditions for turning on the door handle lights can be: determining the light intensity of the current environment based on the light information; when the light intensity is lower than a preset light intensity threshold, determining that the vehicle meets the conditions for turning on the door handle lights.

[0071] The light information can be obtained by installing a light sensor, which collects the light information and determines the light intensity based on the light information.

[0072] The light intensity threshold can be set according to actual conditions, such as 0.3 lux.

[0073] Table 1

[0074] environment Light intensity sunny 30000~300000 lux cloudy day 3000~10000 lux Night 0.001~0.02lux Moonlit Night 0.02~0.3lux Dark Night 0.003~0.0007lux PARKING LOT 1~5lux … …

[0075] For example, Table 1 is an example of the corresponding light intensity in various environments. For example, in a sunny environment, the light intensity is 30000-300000 lux; in a cloudy environment, the light intensity is 3000-10000 lux; in a dark night environment, the light intensity is 0.001-0.02 lux; in a moonlit night environment, the light intensity is 0.02-0.3 lux; in a dark night environment, the light intensity is 0.003-0.0007 lux; in a parking lot environment, the light intensity is 1-5 lux.

[0076] Exemplarily, based on Table 1 above, the preset light intensity threshold can be set to 5lux, that is, when the light intensity of the current environment is lower than 1lux, it can be determined that the current environment is dim and the conditions for turning on the door handle light are met.

[0077] For example, when the user initiates a door unlocking command, if the light intensity in the current environment is lower than 1lux, the door handle light is turned on; if the light intensity in the current environment is greater than or equal to 1lux, the door is unlocked and the door handle light is turned off.

[0078] In the above technical solution, when the trigger time of the unlocking command is after the preset time, or when the light intensity in the environment where the vehicle is located is lower than the preset light intensity threshold, it is determined that the vehicle meets the conditions for turning on the door handle light, and then the door handle light is controlled to be turned on. This can avoid turning on the door handle light when the unlocking command is triggered at any time, and only control the door handle light to be turned on under the set conditions. This can not only meet the user's needs to quickly find the door handle, but also save power.

[0079] S220, when the vehicle meets the conditions for turning on the door handle lights, control the vehicle's doors to be unlocked and the door handle lights to be turned on.

[0080] Optionally, when the vehicle meets the conditions for turning on the door handle lights, it can receive radio waves sent by the vehicle remote control key to control the door unlocking, and at the same time send a command to turn on the door handle lights to the light controller, thereby turning on the door handle lights.

[0081] Exemplarily, the remote control key emits radio waves, the vehicle antenna can receive the radio wave signal, the controller recognizes the signal code, and then the system's actuator motor or electromagnet performs the unlocking action.

[0082] Optionally, when the vehicle meets the conditions for turning on the door handle lights, the doors can also be unlocked by electrical unlocking, and at the same time, a command to turn on the door handle lights is sent to the light controller, thereby turning on the door handle lights.

[0083] Exemplarily, an electric unlocking instruction initiated by a user is received, the motor is controlled to operate to unlock the door according to the electric unlocking instruction, and after the electrolysis is successful, the motor is reset.

[0084] Next, combine Figure 3 The principle of electric unlocking is introduced.

[0085] Figure 3 It is a schematic flow chart of electrolysis startup and electrolysis reset provided in an embodiment of the present application.

[0086] For example, Figure 3 As shown, S310, receiving an electric unlocking instruction.

[0087] Among them, the command for electric unlocking can be generated by the user by touching the outside door handle, by pressing the switch of the outside door handle, or by touching the inside door handle. The triggering method of the electric unlocking command is not specifically limited in the embodiment of this application.

[0088] S320, electrolysis starts.

[0089] For example, after receiving the electric unlocking instruction, the door module drives the motor in the door to unlock, and the unlocking time may be 200ms, and then the motor is powered off and the motor pins are short-circuited to brake the motor, and the braking time may be 200ms. Then S330 is executed.

[0090] S330, detect whether the pawl switch is turned on, if so, execute S340, if not, execute S370.

[0091] It should be understood that the pawl switch being turned on indicates that the door has been unlocked and the door can be opened by pulling the door handle.

[0092] If the pawl switch is not turned on, it indicates that the electrolysis has failed, and then S370 is executed.

[0093] S340, check whether the door status switch is on, if so, execute S350, if not, execute S370.

[0094] Exemplarily, the door status can be acquired by a sensor installed on the vehicle door, and the sensor can detect the status of the vehicle door, such as whether the vehicle door is closed, locked, etc.

[0095] S350, detecting whether the ratchet switch is turned on.

[0096] It should be understood that the ratchet switch being turned on indicates that the door has been fully opened, and the door can be opened by manually pulling the door lightly, which means that the electrolysis is successful. After the electrolysis is successful, S370 is executed.

[0097] If the ratchet switch is not turned on, it means that the car door is not opened. At this time, the car owner can pull the door handle to open it. After a preset time (for example, 8 seconds), the electrolysis is considered successful, and then S370 is executed.

[0098] S360, electrolysis successful.

[0099] After the electrolysis is successful, execute S370.

[0100] S370, motor reset.

[0101] Exemplarily, after the electrolysis succeeds or fails, the motor needs to be reset. Specifically, the motor can be powered on in the reverse direction, and the duration can be 200ms.

[0102] In some embodiments, if the electrolysis fails, it is possible that the motor in the door is faulty, in which case a prompt message may be sent to the user, or the user may be informed of the electrolysis failure through an alarm.

[0103] In the above technical solution, unlocking the car door by electric unlocking is more intelligent than manual unlocking, and is more friendly to the elderly, women, and children. When the user has a lot of things in his hands and it is inconvenient to pull the car door, electric unlocking can conveniently open the car door without user participation, thereby improving the user experience.

[0104] Furthermore, while the vehicle door is unlocked, a door handle light turn-on instruction is sent to a vehicle light controller to turn on the door handle light.

[0105] In the above technical solution, when the user unlocks the car door and turns on the door handle light, the user can quickly find the door handle in a dark environment, which is convenient for the user to open the door and improve the user experience. In addition, turning on the door handle light can also attract the attention of people or animals around to avoid safety accidents.

[0106] In some embodiments, when the door handle light is turned on for a longer period than a first period, the door handle light is controlled to be turned off.

[0107] It should be understood that after the user gets in the car, in order to save power, the door handle light can be controlled to turn off after the first time period. The first time period can be set by the user according to actual conditions, for example, 10 seconds.

[0108] In some embodiments, when it is detected that the vehicle is in driving state, the door handle light is controlled to be turned off.

[0109] It should be understood that when the vehicle is in motion, it means that the user has gotten on the vehicle and there is no need to use the door handle light to find the door handle. Therefore, in order to save power of the door handle light, the door handle light can be turned off when the vehicle is in motion.

[0110] Exemplarily, a controller in the vehicle (eg, a body domain controller) may obtain the status of the vehicle in real time, and when the vehicle is in operation, may send an off command to a light controller to control the door handle lights to be turned off.

[0111] Next, combine Figure 4 The above-mentioned embodiment is described.

[0112] Figure 4 A flow chart of a method for controlling a door handle light provided in an embodiment of the present application.

[0113] For example, Figure 4 As shown in S410, the whole vehicle is locked and a door unlocking command is received.

[0114] Exemplarily, the entire vehicle is in a locked state, that is, all doors on the vehicle are in a closed state.

[0115] Optionally, when the user unlocks the door by electric unlocking, the door unlocking instruction is an electric unlocking instruction.

[0116] S420, determining that the current time is after 19:00 and before 8:00.

[0117] Exemplarily, when a door unlocking command is received, the triggering time of the door unlocking command is determined, and when the triggering time is a time period after 19:00 and before 8:00, step 430 is executed.

[0118] S430, control the door handle light to turn on.

[0119] Exemplarily, the door handle lights of all doors on the vehicle may be controlled to light up, or only the door handle light of the main driver's door may be controlled to light up, which is not specifically limited here.

[0120] S440: After lighting up for 10 minutes or the vehicle is moving, the door handle light is turned off.

[0121] Exemplarily, the on-time of the door handle light is detected, and when the on-time exceeds 10 minutes, the door handle light is controlled to be turned off; or, the state of the vehicle is detected, and when the vehicle is in driving state, the door handle light is controlled to be turned off.

[0122] In some embodiments, to further enhance the user experience, the embodiments of the present application also provide a method: when it is detected that the vehicle door is opened, the vehicle's ambient light and / or welcome light are controlled to turn on; when the ambient light and / or welcome light are turned on for longer than a preset time, the ambient light and / or welcome light are controlled to turn off; or, when it is detected that the vehicle is in driving state, the ambient light and / or welcome light are controlled to turn off.

[0123] The ambient light can be an ambient light on the door or an ambient light in the whole vehicle. The welcome light can be a welcome light at the bottom of the door or a welcome light on the rearview mirror. The embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit the installation position and quantity of the ambient light and the welcome light.

[0124] One possible implementation is to control the ambient light to turn on when it is detected that the vehicle door is opened.

[0125] Optionally, the ambient light on the door can be controlled to turn on, lighting up the moment the door is opened, so that the user can have a better visual experience before getting in the car; all the ambient lights in the car can also be controlled to turn on, and after the user gets in the car, the user's emotions can be recognized in real time through image recognition technology, and the mode of the ambient light can be adjusted accordingly.

[0126] Another possible implementation is to control the welcome light to turn on when it is detected that the vehicle door is opened.

[0127] Optionally, the welcome light can be controlled to turn on in a certain order, such as lighting the position light first, and then lighting the low beam light while turning off the position light. The lighting duration is the duration of each light, such as the position light is on for 5 seconds and the low beam light is on for 3 seconds. The lighting method can include direct lighting, gradual lighting, and stream lighting, etc. Stream lighting can be set to stream lighting when a lamp is composed of multiple lamp beads. In the actual lighting process, the lamps can be lit one by one from one side to the other to achieve the effect of stream lighting.

[0128] Another possible implementation method is to control the welcome light and the ambient light to turn on at the same time when it is detected that the car door is opened, giving the user a better visual experience.

[0129] Optionally, when the atmosphere light and / or the welcome light are turned on for longer than a preset time (e.g., 10 seconds), the atmosphere light and / or the welcome light are turned off. The preset time can be set by the user, e.g., 20 seconds, and this embodiment of the application does not specifically limit this.

[0130] Optionally, when it is detected that the vehicle door is closed, the ambient light and / or the welcome light are controlled to be turned off.

[0131] It should be understood that the main function of the welcome light is to illuminate the way for users to get on the bus and make them feel at home. Therefore, when the user gets on the bus and closes the door, the welcome light can be controlled to turn off to save power.

[0132] Optionally, when it is detected that the vehicle is in driving state, the ambient light and / or the welcome light are controlled to be turned off.

[0133] It should be understood that during the driving process, the ambient light and / or the welcome light may interfere with the driver's vision and affect driving safety. Therefore, the ambient light and / or the welcome light can be turned off when the vehicle is in driving state. At the same time, the door handle light can also be turned off to save power.

[0134] Next, combine Figure 5 The above-mentioned embodiment is described.

[0135] Figure 5 A flow chart of a method for controlling an atmosphere light and a welcome light provided in an embodiment of the present application.

[0136] For example, Figure 5 As shown, in S510, the vehicle door is in a closed state, and it is detected that the vehicle door is opened.

[0137] Exemplarily, the door status may be acquired through a sensor installed on the door, such as open, closed, locked, etc. When the sensor indicates that the door is in an open state, S520 is executed.

[0138] S520, controlling the ambient light and / or the welcome light to turn on.

[0139] Exemplarily, the implementation method of this step has been described in the above embodiment and will not be repeated here.

[0140] S530: After being lit for 10 minutes or the vehicle is running, the ambient light and / or the welcome light are turned off.

[0141] For example, when the door handle light is on for more than 10 minutes, it is assumed that the user has gotten on the vehicle. At this time, the ambient light or the welcome light can be controlled to be turned off; or, after normal driving, the ambient light and / or the welcome light can be controlled to be turned off. It can be understood that when the user starts to enter the driving state, if the ambient light is always on, it may interfere with the user's line of sight and affect the user's driving. Therefore, when the entire vehicle is in the driving state, the ambient light and / or the welcome light can be controlled to be turned off.

[0142] In the above technical solution, when it is detected that the vehicle door is opened, the ambient light and / or the welcome light of the vehicle are controlled to turn on. The ambient light can create a comfortable atmosphere for the user. Turning on the ambient light when the door is opened can make the user relax after getting in the car, thereby improving the user experience. Controlling the welcome light to turn on when the door is opened can illuminate the environment around the door, improve the safety of opening or closing the door, and at the same time, it can also improve the grade of the vehicle and enhance the user experience.

[0143] In addition, in the above technical solution, when the ambient light and / or the welcome light are turned on for longer than the preset time, the ambient light and / or the welcome light are controlled to be turned off to save power; when it is detected that the vehicle is in driving state, the ambient light and / or the welcome light are controlled to be turned off to avoid the ambient light and / or the welcome light interfering with the owner's line of sight and affecting driving safety.

[0144] In some embodiments, when the vehicle is parked and powered off, if it is detected that the vehicle is powered on, the motor in the door is controlled to reset.

[0145] If the vehicle is powered on again after a power outage, in order to protect the motor in the door, the vehicle controller can send a motor reset command to the door module. When the door module receives the motor reset command, it can control the motor to reset. For example, if the vehicle controller drives the motor in the door lock to rotate in response to the door unlock command, a power outage occurs suddenly, and the vehicle is powered on again after the power outage occurs, the vehicle controller does not know the action of the motor at this time, and should control the motor to reset in time to protect the motor and avoid motor failure.

[0146] In some embodiments, the process of controlling the motor reset may be: when the vehicle is parked and powered off, if the vehicle is powered on, detect whether there is current in the door motor; if no current is detected in the motor, control the door motor to reset.

[0147] It should be understood that new energy vehicles rely on batteries for power supply, so when there is no power, the vehicle will not be able to drive. If the door is unlocked by electric unlocking, the door lock function may fail after power is restored. Therefore, when the vehicle is powered off and then restored, the motor in the door is controlled to reset so that the door can be opened later.

[0148] For example, when the vehicle is parked and the power is off, if the vehicle is powered on, it can detect whether current flows through the motor in the door within a preset time (for example, 300ms). When no current flows through the motor, it means that the motor may have failed and cannot normally control the unlocking or locking of the door. The motor in the door is reset to avoid secondary damage to the motor, thereby providing an effective protection measure for the motor, thereby avoiding the situation where the door lock fails and the user cannot open the door after the vehicle is powered off and then powered on.

[0149] Furthermore, when the motor fails, a fault prompt message can be sent to the user so that the user can repair the motor in time. The fault prompt message can be sent via text message, email, etc., which is not limited in the present embodiment.

[0150] In some embodiments, in order to avoid safety accidents caused by the user opening the door while the vehicle is driving, the embodiments of the present application also provide a method: when a vehicle door unlocking command is received, the current speed of the vehicle is obtained. If the current speed is greater than or equal to the preset speed, the door is controlled to be locked.

[0151] It should be understood that when the vehicle is in motion, the user may accidentally touch the unlock button. If the door is unlocked directly, a safety accident may occur. Therefore, whether unlocking is required can be determined based on the current speed of the vehicle.

[0152] Optionally, the vehicle speed may be acquired in real time, and when a door unlocking command of the vehicle is received, the vehicle speed is judged.

[0153] Next, combine Figure 6 Provide a detailed description.

[0154] Figure 6 It is a flow chart of controlling a vehicle door based on vehicle speed provided in an embodiment of the present application.

[0155] For example, Figure 6 As shown, S610, receiving a door unlocking instruction.

[0156] It should be understood that when the vehicle is in motion and a door unlocking command is received, step 620 is performed.

[0157] S620, determine whether the vehicle speed is greater than or equal to a preset vehicle speed, if so, execute S630, if not, execute S640.

[0158] Optionally, the current vehicle speed detected by the vehicle speed sensor can be used to obtain the current vehicle speed detected by the sensor to determine the vehicle speed; the vehicle speed value in the vehicle instrument panel can also be directly obtained to determine the current vehicle speed.

[0159] Among them, the preset vehicle speed can be set according to actual conditions, such as 3km / h or 5km / h, and the embodiment of the present application does not make specific limitations on this.

[0160] Furthermore, the current vehicle speed is compared with the preset speed. If the current vehicle speed is greater than or equal to the preset speed (for example, 5 km / h), the door is controlled to be locked; if the current vehicle speed is less than or equal to the preset speed (for example, 5 km / h), the door is controlled to be unlocked.

[0161] S630, control the vehicle door to be in a locked state.

[0162] Exemplarily, controlling the vehicle door to be in a locked state can be understood as not responding to a vehicle door unlocking instruction.

[0163] S640, controls door unlocking.

[0164] Optionally, the door can be unlocked by electric unlocking. Figure 3 The corresponding embodiments have been introduced and will not be described again here.

[0165] In the above technical solution, when the vehicle speed is greater than or equal to the preset speed, the door is controlled to be locked, that is, when the vehicle speed is greater than a certain value, the door cannot be unlocked. This can avoid safety accidents caused by users misunderstanding the lock during vehicle driving, thereby improving driving safety.
