Therefore, how to automatically start the relevant app and control the vehicle when the mobile phone is close to the vehicle is a technical problem that needs to be solved in this field. At present, traditional button remote control in the prior art includes the following solutions: using a dedicated remote control key to control the vehicle, with limited control distance, single function, and inability to achieve complex interaction and personalized settings; using Bluetooth technology to achieve close connection and control between the mobile phone and the vehicle, but it is necessary to manually open the mobile phone app and perform Bluetooth pairing, which is cumbersome; the effective distance is short, usually not exceeding 10 meters. To use the mobile network to remotely control the vehicle through a mobile app, you need to manually open the app to operate; it depends on the network conditions and there may be delays; maintaining a network connection for a long time will increase the vehicle's power consumption; using NFC technology to achieve close-range identification and control between the phone and the vehicle requires the user to actively place the phone close to the vehicle's NFC sensing area; only supports phones equipped with NFC function; the effective distance is extremely short, usually no more than a few centimeters; based on GPS positioning, related functions are triggered when the user enters the preset area, the positioning accuracy is limited, and false triggers are prone to occur.

Specifically, it includes the following steps:

[0107] Install an iBeacon transmitter on the vehicle and set a unique identifier; install the car manufacturer's app on an Apple phone and continuously listen to the iBeacon signal in the background; when the phone detects that the vehicle's iBeacon signal strength reaches the preset threshold, the car manufacturer's app is automatically launched; after the car manufacturer's app is launched, it establishes a connection with the vehicle via Bluetooth or mobile network; users perform vehicle control operations such as unlocking and starting the vehicle through the car manufacturer's app interface.

[0108] The specific implementation modes of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0109] like Figure 2 As shown, it is a Beacon vehicle control system architecture diagram in the embodiment of the present invention, including:

[0110] In-vehicle iBeacon transmitter; user mobile phone; car company app; in-vehicle control system; cloud server (optional, for data synchronization and remote control)

The identifier can be the VIN code or other unique number of the vehicle; installing the car manufacturer app on the user's Apple mobile phone, and continuously monitoring the iBeacon signal in the background of the app, which can be achieved through the Core Location framework of iOS; when the Apple mobile phone detects that the vehicle iBeacon signal strength reaches a preset threshold, such as -70dBm, a system event is triggered; after receiving the event, the iOS system automatically activates and starts the car manufacturer app; after the car manufacturer app is started, it establishes a connection with the vehicle through Bluetooth or mobile network, and the specific connection method can be selected according to the communication protocol supported by the vehicle; after the connection is successfully established, the app interface displays the vehicle control options, such as unlocking, starting, air conditioning control, etc.; the user performs the required vehicle control operations through the app interface. In specific implementation, the functions of the present invention can be further optimized in the following ways: the distance threshold for iBeacon recognition is set in the car manufacturer's app, and the user can customize the trigger distance according to needs. Combined with geographic location information, the app can be automatically triggered to start at a specific location (such as home or office). Through machine learning algorithms, the most likely operation options can be predicted and prepared based on user usage habits, and voice control functions can be integrated to achieve hands-free control of the vehicle.
