[0042] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present disclosure more clearly understood, the present disclosure is further described in detail below in combination with specific embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0043] It should be noted that, unless otherwise defined, the technical terms or scientific terms used in the embodiments of the present disclosure should be understood by people with ordinary skills in the field to which the present disclosure belongs.

[0044] The terms used in this disclosure are explained as follows:

[0045] APP: Application (APPlication, APP), mobile application service, is an application service developed for mobile phones that connect to the Internet or wireless network card services.

[0046] With the rapid development of vehicle technology, vehicles have become an important means of transportation in people's daily lives. When using a vehicle, users often use smart keys to control the vehicle, such as unlocking the vehicle, opening the trunk, etc.

[0047] The battery life of the smart key is affected by many factors, especially the change of ambient temperature. Too high or too low temperature will accelerate the consumption of battery power, resulting in a shortened battery life. Since the battery power of the smart key is limited, users often find out that the battery is exhausted and the smart key cannot be used normally, which affects the user's normal use of the vehicle.

[0048] Based on the above description, this embodiment proposes a method for determining the battery power of a smart key, such as Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0049] Step 101, receiving a pressing instruction sent by a smart key, obtaining the ambient temperature of the vehicle, and determining the number of pressing counts according to the ambient temperature.

[0050] In a specific implementation, a pressing instruction sent by the smart key is received, which means that the user presses the smart key. The pressing instruction is a pressing instruction generated after the user presses the pressing module on the smart key, and the pressing module includes at least one of the following: an unlocking module, a locking module, a trunk opening module, a vehicle finding module, etc. The vehicle finding module means that after pressing, if the vehicle is within a preset distance from the smart key, the vehicle will send an alarm signal to remind the user of the vehicle's location.

[0051] Specifically, the specific configuration of the pressing module is related to the vehicle model. For example, the pressing module of the smart key corresponding to vehicle model A includes an unlocking module, a locking module, and a trunk opening module. The pressing module of the smart key corresponding to vehicle model B includes an unlocking module, a locking module, a trunk opening module, and a vehicle finding module.

[0052] In this embodiment, when a button of the smart key is pressed, a pressing instruction is generated and the pressing instruction is transmitted to the vehicle via high-frequency information.

[0053] A pressing command sent by the smart key is received, and the ambient temperature of the vehicle is obtained. Since the ambient temperature will affect the battery power consumption, the pressing count number is determined according to the ambient temperature. The pressing count number is the actual number counted by the vehicle.

[0054] Step 102, accumulating the pressing count times to obtain the total number of pressings.

[0055] In specific implementation, each time a button of the smart key is pressed, a press count is determined according to the ambient temperature. The press count is accumulated, that is, each time a press count is obtained, the press count is added to all previous press counts to obtain the total number of presses.

[0056] Exemplarily, when the key of the smart key is pressed for the first time, the determined pressing count is 2, and when the key of the smart key is pressed for the second time, the determined pressing count is 1, and the total number of pressings after the second pressing is 3.

[0057] Step 103: in response to the total number of presses being greater than a first preset number threshold, outputting a prompt message, wherein the prompt message is information indicating that the battery power of the smart key is less than a preset power threshold.

[0058] In specific implementation, the number of press counts is continuously accumulated until the number of presses is greater than a first preset number threshold, which indicates that the number of presses of the smart key has reached a preset alarm threshold, and a prompt message is output to remind the user that the battery of the smart key is low and to replace the battery in time.

[0059] The prompt information is information indicating that the battery power of the smart key is less than a preset power threshold. The preset power threshold is a pre-set power value. When the battery power of the smart key is less than the preset power threshold, it means that the battery of the smart key is in a low power state but has not been exhausted.

[0060] In this embodiment, the first preset number threshold is less than the maximum number of times the smart key can be pressed in a brand new state.

[0061] The prompting method of the prompt information includes at least one of the following: voice prompt, display prompt, indicator light prompt, etc. When the prompting method is display prompt, the content form of the prompt information includes at least one of the following: text, rich text, image, etc., and the display position of the prompt information includes at least one of the following: instrument panel, central control screen, car window, etc. When the prompt information is an indicator light prompt, the indicator light includes at least one of the following: atmosphere light, instrument panel light, central control screen virtual prompt light, etc.

[0062] Through the above scheme, a pressing command sent by the smart key is received, the ambient temperature of the vehicle is obtained, and the number of pressing counts is determined according to the ambient temperature. Because the ambient temperature will affect the battery power consumption, the influence of the ambient temperature is considered when determining the number of pressing counts, so that the subsequent determination of the battery power of the smart key is more accurate. The number of pressing counts is accumulated to obtain the total number of pressings. When the total number of pressings is greater than the first preset number threshold, a prompt message is output to prompt the user that the battery of the smart key is low and needs to be replaced, so as to avoid the user not knowing until the smart key cannot be used due to the exhaustion of the battery of the smart key, thereby improving the user experience.

[0063] In some embodiments, step 101 specifically includes:

[0064] Step 1011, receiving a pressing instruction sent by the smart key, and determining an actual number of pressing times corresponding to the pressing instruction;

[0065] Step 1012, obtaining the ambient temperature of the vehicle, and determining a first target counting coefficient corresponding to the ambient temperature according to the ambient temperature;

[0066] Step 1013: multiply the actual number of presses by the first target counting coefficient to obtain the number of press counts.

[0067] In specific implementation, a pressing instruction sent by the smart key is received, which means that the user presses the smart key, and the actual number of presses corresponding to the pressing instruction is determined, where the actual number of presses is the number of times the user actually presses the smart key.

[0068] The database pre-stores the corresponding relationship between the ambient temperature and the first counting coefficient. In this embodiment, because the ambient temperature is too high or too low, it will have a great impact on the battery power consumption. Therefore, when the ambient temperature is greater than the preset temperature range, the higher the ambient temperature, the larger the corresponding first counting coefficient. When the ambient temperature is less than the preset temperature range, the lower the ambient temperature, the larger the corresponding first counting coefficient.

[0069] Exemplarily, the preset temperature range is 20 degrees Celsius to 25 degrees Celsius, and when the ambient temperature is within the preset temperature range, the first counting coefficient is 1. When the ambient temperature is 30 degrees Celsius, the first counting coefficient is 2. When the ambient temperature is -5 degrees, the first counting coefficient is 3.

[0070] The ambient temperature of the vehicle is obtained, and a first target counting coefficient corresponding to the ambient temperature is found according to the ambient temperature. The actual number of presses is multiplied by the first target counting coefficient corresponding to the ambient temperature, and the product value obtained is the number of press counts.

[0071] For example, the ambient temperature is 15 degrees, and the first target counting coefficient corresponding to the ambient temperature is determined to be 2. If the actual number of presses is determined to be 2, the number of press counts is determined to be 4.

[0072] Through the above scheme, because too high or too low ambient temperature will accelerate the consumption of battery power, when estimating the battery power of the smart key, the counting times should fully consider the ambient temperature, that is, at this time, in order to take into account the impact of ambient temperature on battery power consumption, the number of press counts may be greater than the actual number of presses, thereby making the determination of the battery power of the smart key more accurate.

[0073] In some embodiments, step 101 specifically includes:

[0074] Step 101A, receiving a pressing instruction sent by the smart key, and determining an actual number of pressing times corresponding to the pressing instruction;

[0075] Step 101B, obtaining the ambient temperature of the vehicle, and determining a first target counting coefficient corresponding to the ambient temperature according to the ambient temperature;

[0076] Step 101C, obtaining the altitude information of the vehicle, and determining a second target counting coefficient corresponding to the altitude information according to the altitude information;

[0077] Step 101D: multiply the actual number of presses, the first target counting coefficient, and the second target counting coefficient to obtain the number of press counts.

[0078] In specific implementation, a pressing instruction sent by the smart key is received, which means that the user presses the smart key, and the actual number of presses corresponding to the pressing instruction is determined, where the actual number of presses is the number of times the user actually presses the smart key.

[0079] The database pre-stores the corresponding relationship between the ambient temperature and the first counting coefficient. In this embodiment, because the ambient temperature is too high or too low, it will have a great impact on the battery power consumption. Therefore, when the ambient temperature is greater than the preset temperature range, the higher the ambient temperature, the larger the corresponding first counting coefficient. When the ambient temperature is less than the preset temperature range, the lower the ambient temperature, the larger the corresponding first counting coefficient.

[0080] The database also stores the corresponding relationship between the altitude of the vehicle and the second counting coefficient. In this embodiment, the higher the altitude, the larger the corresponding second counting coefficient.

[0081] The actual number of presses, the first target counting coefficient and the second target counting coefficient are multiplied to obtain a product value, which is the number of press counts.

[0082] For example, the ambient temperature is -5 degrees, and the first target counting coefficient corresponding to the ambient temperature is determined to be 3. The altitude of the vehicle is 3000 meters, and the second target counting coefficient corresponding to the altitude is determined to be 3. The actual number of presses is determined to be 1, and the number of press counts is determined to be 9.

[0083] Through the above scheme, in addition to considering the influence of ambient temperature on battery power consumption, the influence of altitude on battery power consumption is also considered, so that the subsequent determination of the battery power of the smart key is more accurate.

[0084] In some embodiments, step 103 specifically includes:

[0085] Step 1031, in response to the total number of presses being greater than a first preset number threshold, generating a prompt message, wherein the prompt message is information indicating that the battery power of the smart key is less than a preset power threshold;

[0086] Step 1032, determining device information associated with the vehicle;

[0087] Step 1033: determine the target device according to the device information, and send the prompt information to the target device.

[0088] In specific implementation, when the total number of presses is greater than the first preset number threshold, it means that the number of presses of the smart key has reached the preset alarm threshold, and a prompt message is generated to remind the user that the battery power of the smart key is less than the preset power threshold.

[0089] When a user purchases a vehicle or logs into the vehicle system, the user will bind the corresponding mobile device information, which is the device information associated with the vehicle. The mobile device includes at least one of the following: a mobile phone, a laptop, a tablet computer, a watch, a bracelet, etc.

[0090] The corresponding target device is determined according to the device information, and the prompt information is sent to the target device, so as to realize prompting the user of the low power of the smart key through the mobile device. For example, if the target device corresponding to the device information is determined to be a mobile phone, the prompt information is sent to the mobile phone, and after the mobile phone receives the prompt information, the prompt information is displayed to the user.

[0091] In this embodiment, the display mode of displaying the prompt information on the mobile terminal includes at least one of the following: pop-up window display, voice display, etc. Exemplarily, when the display mode is pop-up window display, after the mobile phone receives the prompt information, a pop-up window containing the prompt information is displayed on the mobile phone interface.

[0092] Through the above solution, in order to avoid the possibility that the prompt information displayed on the vehicle may be ignored by the user, or when the vehicle indicator light prompts the user, the user may not understand the meaning of the prompt. In this case, the prompt information can be displayed on the user's mobile device to achieve a simple and clear prompt, further prompting the user to replace the battery of the smart key, so as to avoid the situation where the smart key battery is exhausted and the user's normal use of the vehicle is affected.

[0093] In some embodiments, step 1033 further includes:

[0094] Step 103A, in response to receiving the battery replacement information sent by the target device, determining that the smart key battery replacement is completed, and clearing the total number of presses.

[0095] In specific implementation, after receiving the prompt information, the user replaces the battery of the smart key. At this time, the user can click the target virtual button corresponding to the replaced smart key battery on the target device. After the target device detects the pressing instruction of the target virtual button corresponding to the replaced smart key battery, it sends the battery replacement information to the vehicle.

[0096] When the vehicle computer receives the battery replacement information sent by the target device, it indicates that the battery replacement of the smart key has been completed, and the accumulated total number of presses is cleared to zero, and accumulated again when the smart key is pressed again.

[0097] Through the above scheme, when the battery of the smart key is replaced, the total number of previously accumulated presses is reset to zero so that the power of the replaced battery can be determined later. When it is determined that the power is too low, a prompt message is resent to replace it again.

[0098] In some embodiments, step 103 further includes:

[0099] Step 10A, in response to receiving a preset number of pressing instructions for a preset module sent by the smart key within a preset time, determining that the smart key battery replacement is completed;

[0100] Step 10B, clearing the total number of presses.

[0101] In specific implementation, after the prompt information is output, if a preset number of pressing instructions for a preset module is received from the smart key within a preset time, it means that the smart key battery replacement is completed. The accumulated total number of pressings is cleared and accumulated again when the smart key is pressed again.

[0102] The preset module is a preset pressing module on the smart key, and the preset module includes at least one of the following: an unlocking module, a locking module, a trunk opening module, a car finding module, etc. The number of the preset modules can be one or more.

[0103] Exemplarily, the preset module is the unlocking module, the preset duration is 1 second, and the preset number of times is 2 times. If after outputting the prompt message, a pressing instruction sent by the smart key is received, and the unlocking module is pressed twice within 1 second, it means that the smart key has been replaced.

[0104] Another example, the preset modules are the trunk opening module and the car finding module, the preset duration is 2 seconds, and the preset number of times is 1 time. If after outputting the prompt message, the smart key sends a message, and the trunk opening module is pressed once and the car finding module is pressed once within 2 seconds, it means that the smart key has been replaced.

[0105] With the above solution, when the user receives the prompt message and replaces the battery of the smart key, the user can directly press the smart key at this time to inform the vehicle that the replacement of the smart key battery is completed, which is more convenient and faster.

[0106] In some embodiments, after step 103, it further includes:

[0107] Step A, in response to the total number of presses being greater than a second preset number threshold, sending a mode switching instruction to the smart key, where the second preset number threshold is greater than the first preset number threshold.

[0108] Wherein, after receiving the mode switching instruction, the smart key switches from the first mode to the second mode, and the key response distance corresponding to the second mode is less than the key response distance corresponding to the first mode.

[0109] Specifically, when implementing, if the user does not replace the battery of the smart key in time after the prompt message is displayed, the press count is still being accumulated at this time, that is, the total number of presses is still increasing. If the total number of presses is greater than the second preset number threshold, it means that the battery power of the smart key is extremely low at this time, and a mode switching instruction is sent to the smart key. It can be understood that the second preset number threshold is greater than the first preset number threshold.

[0110] After receiving the mode switching instruction, the smart key switches from the first mode to the second mode, where the key response distance corresponding to the second mode is less than the key response distance corresponding to the first mode. The key response distance represents the farthest distance at which the vehicle can respond to the press instruction after the smart key is pressed. Switching from the first mode to the second mode means that the smart key needs to be closer to the vehicle to make the vehicle respond to the press instruction of the smart key, further reducing the power consumption of the smart key and extending the available duration of the smart key.

[0111] With the above solution, if the user still does not replace the battery of the smart key after prompting the user to replace the battery of the smart key, a mode switching instruction can be sent to the smart key when the total number of presses is greater than the second preset number threshold, so as to reduce the power consumption of the smart key and extend the available duration of the smart key.

[0112] Based on the same inventive concept, another embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method for determining the battery power of a smart key, including:

[0113] According to experimental data, obtain the standard number of times N that the smart key button can be pressed under the best service life of the battery, and set an alarm threshold M (M < N) according to the standard number of presses. At the same time, determine the press count coefficient within different temperature ranges. For example: when the temperature range is 20°C to 25°C, the coefficient is 1; when the temperature range is -5°C to -10°C, the coefficient is 2.

[0114] When the button of the smart key is pressed, the pressing information is transmitted to the body domain controller through high-frequency information. The body domain controller counts the number of presses. When counting, the body domain controller accumulates according to the current ambient temperature and the corresponding coefficient. For example: when the temperature is 20℃~25℃, the count increases by 1 for each press; when the temperature is -5℃~-10℃, the count increases by 2 for each press. Assume that the number of presses counted by the body domain controller is n at this time.

[0115] When the number of presses counted by the body domain controller is n=M, the number of presses of the smart key has reached the alarm threshold. At this time, the body domain controller sends a warning signal and prompts through the instrument to remind the user to replace the battery. At the same time, the pre-alarm information is sent to the mobile phone APP. After receiving the alarm information, the mobile phone APP uses it to confirm whether the battery should be replaced.

[0116] When the user confirms on the mobile phone APP that the key battery has been replaced, the APP sends a command to the body controller. After receiving the confirmation command, the body controller resets the number of button presses and starts a new round of counting.

[0117] It should be noted that the method of the embodiment of the present disclosure can be performed by a single device, such as a computer or a server. The method of the present embodiment can also be applied in a distributed scenario and completed by multiple devices cooperating with each other. In the case of such a distributed scenario, one of the multiple devices can only perform one or more steps in the method of the embodiment of the present disclosure, and the multiple devices will interact with each other to complete the described method.

[0118] It should be noted that the above describes some embodiments of the present disclosure. Other embodiments are within the scope of the appended claims. In some cases, the actions or steps recorded in the claims can be performed in an order different from that in the above embodiments and still achieve the desired results. In addition, the processes depicted in the accompanying drawings do not necessarily require the specific order or continuous order shown to achieve the desired results. In some embodiments, multitasking and parallel processing are also possible or may be advantageous.

[0119] Based on the same inventive concept, corresponding to any of the above-mentioned embodiment methods, the present disclosure also provides a device for determining the battery power of a smart key.
