[0051] The following description of exemplary embodiments of the present invention is made in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which various details of the embodiments of the present invention are included to facilitate understanding. These details should be considered as merely exemplary. Therefore, it should be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications may be made to the embodiments described herein without departing from the scope and spirit of the present invention. Similarly, for the sake of clarity and conciseness, descriptions of well-known functions and structures are omitted in the following description.
[0052] Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a flow chart of a method for automatically adjusting a vehicle exterior rearview mirror according to a first embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, the vehicle exterior rearview mirror automatic adjustment method may include:
[0053] Step S101: determine whether the vehicle is in parking mode.
[0054] In step S101 , it is determined whether the current mode of the vehicle is the parking mode.
[0055] Step S102 : In response to the vehicle being in the parking mode, obtaining a positional relationship between the vehicle and a target parking space, thereby individually adjusting the angles of exterior rearview mirrors on both sides of the vehicle based on the positional relationship between the vehicle and the target parking space.
[0056] If the vehicle is currently in parking mode, the positional relationship between the vehicle and the target parking space corresponding to the vehicle is obtained, such as a vertical relationship, a parallel relationship, or an angled relationship, so that the angles of the left and right exterior rearview mirrors on both sides of the vehicle are adjusted separately based on the positional relationship between the vehicle and the target parking space corresponding to the vehicle.
[0057] Therefore, in the parking mode, the embodiment of the present invention separately adjusts the angles of the exterior rearview mirrors on both sides of the vehicle based on the positional relationship between the vehicle and the target parking space, so that not only the situation near the rear wheels but also pedestrians, vehicles, obstacles, etc. around the vehicle can be observed within the visible range of the exterior rearview mirrors, thereby improving safety and convenience during parking.
[0058] Optionally, based on the positional relationship between the vehicle and the target parking space, the exterior rearview mirrors on both sides of the vehicle are individually adjusted, including: adjusting the angle of a first exterior rearview mirror near the target parking space downward by a first angle; and adjusting the angle of a second exterior rearview mirror farther from the target parking space based on the positional relationship between the vehicle and the target parking space. If the vehicle is currently in parking mode, regardless of the positional relationship between the vehicle and the target parking space, the angle of the first exterior rearview mirror near the target parking space is adjusted downward, and at the same time, the angle of the second exterior rearview mirror farther from the target parking space is adjusted based on the positional relationship between the vehicle and the target parking space. This ensures that at least one exterior rearview mirror can see the entire rear wheels of the vehicle, while the other exterior rearview mirror has a visible range of pedestrians, vehicles, obstacles, etc. around the vehicle, thereby improving safety and convenience during parking.
[0059] Optionally, the first angle is an angle that enables the first exterior rearview mirror to see the rear wheels of the vehicle. If the vehicle is currently in parking mode, regardless of the positional relationship between the vehicle and the target parking space, the angle of the first exterior rearview mirror near the target parking space is adjusted downward so that the first exterior rearview mirror can see the entire rear wheels of the vehicle. This ensures that at least one exterior rearview mirror can see the entire rear wheels of the vehicle, while pedestrians, vehicles, obstacles, etc. around the vehicle are within the visible range of the other exterior rearview mirror, thereby improving safety and convenience during parking.
[0060] like Figure 2a-2c As shown in the figure, taking the case where the target parking space is on the right side of the vehicle as an example, if the vehicle is currently in parking mode, then regardless of the positional relationship between the vehicle and the target parking space, the angle of the right exterior rearview mirror is adjusted downward (as indicated by the solid arrow in the figure) so that the right exterior rearview mirror can see the entire right rear wheel of the vehicle. Similarly, taking the case where the target parking space is on the left side of the vehicle as an example, if the vehicle is currently in parking mode, then regardless of the positional relationship between the vehicle and the target parking space, the angle of the left exterior rearview mirror is adjusted downward so that the left exterior rearview mirror can see the entire left rear wheel of the vehicle.
[0061] Optionally, based on the positional relationship between the vehicle and the target parking space, the angle of the second exterior rearview mirror away from the target parking space is adjusted, including: if the vehicle is perpendicular to the target parking space, or if the vehicle is at an angle to the target parking space, the angle of the second exterior rearview mirror away from the target parking space is adjusted downward by a second angle during parking; if the vehicle is parallel to the target parking space, the angle of the second exterior rearview mirror away from the target parking space is not adjusted during parking. Optionally, the second angle is an angle that enables the second exterior rearview mirror to see the rear wheels of the vehicle. Therefore, before adjusting the angle of the second exterior rearview mirror away from the target parking space, pedestrians, vehicles, obstacles, etc. around the vehicle can be observed within the visible range of the second exterior rearview mirror. After adjusting the angle of the second exterior rearview mirror away from the target parking space, the entire rear wheels of the vehicle can be observed within the visible range of the second exterior rearview mirror.
[0062] like Figure 2a-2b As shown, taking the case where the target parking space is on the right side of the vehicle as an example, if the vehicle is currently in parking mode and the vehicle is perpendicular to the target parking space or the vehicle is at an angle to the target parking space, the angle of the left exterior rearview mirror is adjusted during parking (as indicated by the dotted arrow in the figure) so that the left exterior rearview mirror can see the entire right rear wheel of the vehicle. Similarly, taking the case where the target parking space is on the left side of the vehicle as an example, if the vehicle is currently in parking mode and the vehicle is perpendicular to the target parking space or the vehicle is at an angle to the target parking space, the angle of the right exterior rearview mirror is adjusted during parking so that the right exterior rearview mirror can see the entire right rear wheel of the vehicle.
[0063] It should be noted that the positional relationship between the vehicle and the target parking space can be determined based on the positional relationship between the center line of the vehicle in the length direction and the center line of the target parking space in the length direction, or based on the positional relationship between the center line of the vehicle in the width direction and the center line of the target parking space in the width direction.
[0064] like Figure 2c As shown in the figure, taking the case where the target parking space is on the right side of the vehicle as an example, if the vehicle is currently in parking mode and the vehicle is parallel to the target parking space, the angle of the left exterior rearview mirror will not be adjusted during parking (as indicated by "×" in the figure). Similarly, taking the case where the target parking space is on the left side of the vehicle as an example, if the vehicle is currently in parking mode and the vehicle is parallel to the target parking space, the angle of the right exterior rearview mirror will not be adjusted during parking.
[0065] Figure 3 Flowchart of the method for automatically adjusting the vehicle exterior rearview mirror according to the second embodiment of the present invention. As another embodiment of the present invention, Figure 3As shown, the method for automatically adjusting the vehicle exterior rearview mirror may include:
[0066] Step S301, determine whether the vehicle is in parking mode; if so, execute step S302; if not, end.
[0067] Step S302 , obtaining the positional relationship between the vehicle and the target parking space. If the vehicle is perpendicular to the target parking space, or the vehicle and the target parking space are at an angle, step S303 is executed. If the vehicle is parallel to the target parking space, step S304 is executed.
[0068] Step S303: adjusting the angle of a first exterior rearview mirror close to the target parking space downward by a first angle, and adjusting the angle of a second exterior rearview mirror away from the target parking space downward by a second angle during parking.
[0069] If the vehicle is currently in parking mode and the vehicle is perpendicular to or at an angle to the target parking space, the angle of a first exterior rearview mirror located near the target parking space is adjusted downward by a first angle so that the first exterior rearview mirror can see the rear wheels of the vehicle. Furthermore, during parking, the angle of a second exterior rearview mirror located away from the target parking space is adjusted. Before adjusting the angle of the second exterior rearview mirror located away from the target parking space, pedestrians, vehicles, obstacles, and the like around the vehicle can be observed within the visible range of the second exterior rearview mirror. After adjusting the angle of the second exterior rearview mirror located away from the target parking space, the entire rear wheels of the vehicle can be observed within the visible range of the second exterior rearview mirror.
[0070] Therefore, this ensures that at least one exterior rearview mirror can see the entire rear wheel of the vehicle, while the other exterior rearview mirror has pedestrians, vehicles, obstacles, etc. around the vehicle within its visible range, thereby improving safety and convenience during parking.
[0071] Taking the case where the target parking space is on the right side of the vehicle as an example, the angle of the right exterior rearview mirror is adjusted downward by a first angle so that the right exterior rearview mirror can see the entire right rear wheel of the vehicle, and the angle of the left exterior rearview mirror is adjusted during parking. Taking the case where the target parking space is on the left side of the vehicle as an example, the angle of the left exterior rearview mirror is adjusted downward by a first angle so that the left exterior rearview mirror can see the entire left rear wheel of the vehicle, and the angle of the right exterior rearview mirror is adjusted during parking.
[0072] Optionally, during parking, the angle of the second exterior rearview mirror away from the target parking space is adjusted downward by a second angle, including: during parking, obtaining the field of view of the second exterior rearview mirror away from the target parking space in real time, and determining whether any endpoint of the target parking space appears in the field of view; in response to any endpoint of the target parking space appearing in the field of view, adjusting the angle of the second exterior rearview mirror downward by a second angle. Figure 4a As shown, taking the case where the target parking space is on the right side of the vehicle as an example, the field of view of the left exterior rearview mirror is acquired in real time to determine whether any endpoint of the target parking space appears in the field of view of the left exterior rearview mirror. If any endpoint of the target parking space appears in the field of view of the left exterior rearview mirror, the angle of the left exterior rearview mirror is adjusted downward so that the left exterior rearview mirror can see the left rear wheel of the vehicle. Similarly, taking the case where the target parking space is on the left side of the vehicle as an example, the field of view of the right exterior rearview mirror is acquired in real time to determine whether any endpoint of the target parking space appears in the field of view of the right exterior rearview mirror. If any endpoint of the target parking space appears in the field of view of the right exterior rearview mirror, the angle of the right exterior rearview mirror is adjusted downward by a second angle so that the right exterior rearview mirror can see the right rear wheel of the vehicle.
[0073] Optionally, during parking, the angle of the second exterior rearview mirror away from the target parking space is adjusted downward by a second angle, including: during parking, obtaining the angle (θ) between the vehicle and the target parking space in real time, and determining whether the angle (θ) between the vehicle and the target parking space is less than or equal to an angle threshold; in response to the angle (θ) between the vehicle and the target parking space being less than or equal to the angle threshold, adjusting the angle of the second exterior rearview mirror downward by a second angle. Figure 4b As shown, taking the case where the target parking space is on the right side of the vehicle as an example, during the parking process, the angle (θ) between the vehicle and the target parking space is obtained in real time, and a determination is made as to whether the angle between the vehicle and the target parking space is less than or equal to an angle threshold. If the angle between the vehicle and the target parking space is less than or equal to the angle threshold, the angle of the left exterior rearview mirror is adjusted downward by a second angle so that the left exterior rearview mirror can see the left rear wheel of the vehicle. Similarly, taking the case where the target parking space is on the left side of the vehicle as an example, during the parking process, the angle (θ) between the vehicle and the target parking space is obtained in real time, and a determination is made as to whether the angle between the vehicle and the target parking space is less than or equal to the angle threshold. If the angle (θ) between the vehicle and the target parking space is less than or equal to the angle threshold, the angle of the right exterior rearview mirror is adjusted downward by a second angle so that the right exterior rearview mirror can see the right rear wheel of the vehicle.
[0074] It should be noted that the angle (θ) between the vehicle and the target parking space can be determined based on the angle between the center line of the vehicle in the length direction and the center line of the target parking space in the length direction, or the angle (θ) between the vehicle and the target parking space can be determined based on the angle between the center line of the vehicle in the width direction and the center line of the target parking space in the width direction.
[0075] Step S304: Adjusting the angle of the first exterior rearview mirror close to the target parking space downward by a first angle, but not adjusting the angle of the second exterior rearview mirror away from the target parking space.
[0076] If the vehicle is currently in parking mode and is parallel to a target parking space, the angle of a first exterior rearview mirror close to the target parking space is adjusted downward by a first angle so that the first exterior rearview mirror can see the rear wheels of the vehicle, but the angle of a second exterior rearview mirror away from the target parking space is not adjusted. Therefore, pedestrians, vehicles, obstacles, etc. around the vehicle can be observed within the visible range of the second exterior rearview mirror, thereby improving safety and convenience during parking.
