[0047] The realization, functional features, and advantages of the present invention will be further described in conjunction with embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings. Specific embodiments

[0048] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0049] In addition, in the present invention, descriptions such as "first" and "second" are only for descriptive purposes, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly indicating the quantity of the indicated technical features. Thus, features defined with "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of such features. In addition, the technical solutions between various embodiments can be combined with each other, but it must be based on the fact that those of ordinary skill in the art can implement them. When the combination of technical solutions conflicts with each other or cannot be implemented, it should be considered that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by the present invention.

[0050] With the diversification of the identities of the main driver and the co-driver, the co-driver and the main driver are not necessarily familiar with each other. For example, it may be a temporary contractual relationship formed temporarily, such as between a car-hailing driver and a passenger. Therefore, in some scenarios, it is necessary to restrict the operation permissions of the co-driver to prevent the co-driver from having all the functions and operation permissions of the in-vehicle tablet computer, which may affect driving or obtain the privacy information of the main driver. In traditional technologies, usually, the main driver uses an APP on a smart terminal such as a mobile phone to restrict the functions of the in-vehicle tablet computer. However, the traditional restriction method requires the main driver to think about the functions that should be restricted according to the different identities of the co-driver first and then make active settings. In most cases, the main driver will forget to make active settings in advance and often remembers to restrict the operation permissions of the co-driver only after the co-driver gets into the car. And after the settings, if the co-driver triggers a restricted function, the in-vehicle tablet computer will directly display that the function is restricted for the co-driver to use, which greatly affects the harmony between the main and co-drivers. Therefore, it is extremely inconvenient to use in practice.

[0051] In response to this, the present invention proposes a method for controlling an in-vehicle tablet computer.

[0052] Referring to Figures 1 to 3 , the method for controlling the in-vehicle tablet computer includes:

[0053] Step S100, detecting whether someone enters the co-driver space;

[0054] Step S200: When it is detected that someone enters the co-pilot space, collect relevant information of the driver and the co-pilot.

[0055] Step S300: Based on the collected relevant information of the driver and the co-pilot, allocate the function operation permission of the co-pilot for the in-vehicle tablet computer and modify the display icon of the prohibited operation function to an abnormal icon; and,

[0056] Step S400: When it is determined that the person sitting in the co-pilot triggers the prohibited operation function, send a prompt message corresponding to the abnormal icon and abandon the execution of the currently triggered prohibited operation function, where the prompt message is used to prompt that the currently triggered prohibited operation function cannot be used normally.

[0057] The execution subject of the in-vehicle tablet computer control method can be the control unit in the in-vehicle tablet computer; or, it can also be the central control unit of the whole vehicle to implement the in-vehicle tablet computer control method proposed by the present invention by communicating with the control unit in the in-vehicle tablet computer; or, it can also be a control device independent of the control unit and the central control unit to implement the in-vehicle tablet computer control method proposed by the present invention by communicating with the control unit and the central control unit respectively. In this embodiment, the execution subject of the in-vehicle tablet computer control method of the present invention is not limited.

[0058] In this embodiment, it is possible to determine whether someone enters the co-pilot space by performing image recognition on the co-pilot space or by detecting the weight of relevant areas in the co-pilot seat. When confirming whether someone enters the co-pilot space, relevant information of the driver and the co-pilot can be obtained by means such as audio collection and image collection. The relevant information includes but is not limited to the language communication information between the two parties, the body communication information between the two parties, their respective behavior information, their respective language information, etc. It can be understood that the relevant information of the driver and the co-pilot is correlated with their relationship. Therefore, based on the collected relevant information, functions suitable for the current co-pilot to use in the in-vehicle tablet computer can be allocated as permitted manipulation functions and operation permissions, and functions not suitable for the current co-pilot to use can be allocated as prohibited operation functions. After that, control the in-vehicle tablet computer to normally display the program icons of the permitted manipulation functions, and modify the display icons of the prohibited operation functions on the in-vehicle tablet computer to abnormal icons. The abnormal icons are used to indicate that the prohibited operation functions cannot be used normally, so that after the co-pilot sees the prohibited operation functions, the probability of the co-pilot using the prohibited operation functions is reduced.

[0059] In this embodiment, the force direction on the screen when the in-vehicle tablet computer is touched can be used to determine whether the main driver or the co-driver triggers the current function. If it is determined that the co-driver triggers the prohibited operation function, the prompt information corresponding to the current abnormal icon is displayed, and the prohibited operation function is not run. In this embodiment, the abnormal icon can be an icon in which the prohibited operation function is in an unusable state, and the unusable state can be an uninstalled state, a state of too low version, a state of data loss, a state of too much cache, etc.; correspondingly, the prompt information can be information for prompting that the program cannot run because it is not installed, information for prompting that the current version of the program is too low to run, information for prompting that the program cannot run because the data integrity is less than 100%, and information for prompting that the program cannot run because the cache is too much. It can be understood that if it is determined that the main driver triggers the prohibited operation function, the in-vehicle tablet computer can be controlled to normally run the prohibited operation function.

[0060] The technical solution of the present invention detects whether someone enters the co-driver space; when it is detected that someone enters the co-driver space, relevant information of the main driver and the co-driver is collected; based on the collected relevant information of the main driver and the co-driver, the function operation permission of the co-driver for the in-vehicle tablet computer is allocated and the display icon of the prohibited operation function is modified to an abnormal icon; and, when it is determined that the person sitting in the co-driver triggers the prohibited operation function, the prompt information corresponding to the abnormal icon is sent and the currently triggered prohibited operation function is given up from execution, and the prompt information is used to prompt that the currently triggered prohibited operation function cannot be used normally. The method for controlling the in-vehicle tablet computer of the present invention enables the co-driver to only use the suitable functions in the in-vehicle tablet computer and cannot use all functions, thus reducing the probability that the co-driver, who has a relatively distant relationship with the main driver, obtains the privacy information of the main driver, and there is no need for the main driver to think about the functions that need to be disabled by the current co-driver, nor does the main driver need to set or manually set in advance, greatly improving the flexibility of use; in addition, by displaying the abnormal icon and sending the corresponding prompt information, the acceptance of the co-driver for the unusability of the prohibited operation function can be effectively improved, and the negative emotions of the co-driver can be reduced, which is conducive to improving the harmony between the main driver and the co-driver, and further can solve the problem that the practicality of the means for restricting the functions used by the co-driver of the in-vehicle tablet computer is poor.

[0061] Referring to Figures 1 to 3 , the relevant information includes the language interaction information and behavior interaction information of the main driver and the co-driver;

[0062] Collecting the relevant information of the main driver and the co-driver includes:

[0063] Collect the first voice information of the person sitting in the driver's seat and the second voice information of the person supposed to sit in the co-driver's seat, and extract the language interaction information of the main driver and the co-driver based on the first voice information and the second voice information;

[0064] Collect the image information of the front row space of the vehicle, and determine the behavior interaction information of the main driver and the co-driver based on the space information;

[0065] Among them, the front row space of the vehicle at least includes the driver's space, the co-driver's space, the armrest box and the central console.

[0066] In this embodiment, the first voice information and the second voice information can be respectively collected from the sound sources at the driver's seat and the co-driver's seat, and the first interactive part and the first non-interactive part of both parties in the first voice information and the second voice information can be determined, and the first interactive part can be used as the language interaction information of the main driver and the co-driver. In this embodiment, the first interactive part can be the part where the main driver and the co-driver have a language conversation, such as the communication between the online car-hailing driver and the passenger about the mobile phone tail number, or the discussion between friends about the next destination; the first non-interactive part can be the part where the main driver and the co-driver do not have a language conversation, such as the call that the co-driver is communicating.

[0067] In addition, the image information of the front row space of the vehicle can be recognized by image recognition to recognize the main driver and the co-driver, and then their behaviors can be recognized to determine the second interactive part where there is a behavior interaction between the two and the second non-interactive part where there is no behavior interaction between the two, and the second interactive part and the second non-interactive part can be used as the behavior interaction information of the main driver and the co-driver. In this embodiment, the second interactive part can be the part where the main driver and the co-driver have a behavior interaction, such as the main driver helping the co-driver to tidy up the makeup; the second non-interactive part can be the part where the main driver and the co-driver do not have a behavior interaction, such as the behavior of the main driver and the co-driver playing with their mobile phones respectively.

[0068] It should be noted that for such temporary contractual relationships as online car-hailing drivers and passengers, there is a high probability that there will be language communication and interaction between the main driver and the co-driver, but there may not necessarily be behavior communication and interaction. Therefore, only the first interactive part can be used as the language interaction information, but both the second interactive part and the second non-interactive part need to be used as the behavior interaction information of the main driver and the co-driver.

[0069] In addition, the technical solution of the present invention obtains the behavior interaction information by collecting at least the image information of the driver's space, the co-driver's space, the armrest box and the central console, which is beneficial to ensuring the accuracy of the collection of the behavior interaction information.

[0070] Refer to Figure 2, the in-vehicle tablet computer has function types including driving parameter adjustment function, entertainment service function, communication and social function, and information service function;

[0071] Step S300, based on the collection of relevant information of the main driver and the co-driver, allocate the function operation permission of the co-driver for the in-vehicle tablet computer and modify the display icon of the prohibited operation function to an abnormal icon, including:

[0072] Step S310, determine the interaction relationship between the co-driver and the main driver based on at least one of the language interaction information and the behavior interaction information;

[0073] Step S320, based on the interaction relationship, set at least one of the driving parameter adjustment function, the entertainment service function, the communication and social function, and the information service function as the permitted operation function of the co-driver, and set the operation permission of the co-driver for the permitted operation function based on the interaction relationship;

[0074] Step S330, set other functions of the in-vehicle tablet computer except the permitted operation function as prohibited operation functions, and modify the display icon of the prohibited operation function to an abnormal icon.

[0075] In this embodiment, the driving parameter adjustment function includes driving mode selection, driving motor output power adjustment, energy recovery intensity adjustment, assisted driving setting, etc. The entertainment service function may include intelligent voice assistant function, music playing function, air conditioning adjustment function, seat adjustment function, etc. The communication and social function includes social software information synchronization function, financial software information synchronization function, recruitment software information synchronization function, etc. The information service function includes news push function, weather information query function, road condition information query function, recruitment information query function, etc. It can be seen that the driving parameter adjustment function will affect the actual driving state of the vehicle, the communication and social function involves more privacy information, the information service function may involve some privacy information, and the entertainment service function basically does not involve privacy information and does not affect the actual driving state of the vehicle.

[0076] And as the determined interaction relationship between the main driver and the co-driver is different, the functions suitable for the co-driver to use will also be different. Generally speaking, the closer the interaction relationship between the main driver and the co-driver, the more functions the co-driver can use and the higher the operation permission should be, and the fewer prohibited operation functions should be; the more distant the interaction relationship between the main driver and the co-driver, the fewer functions the co-driver can use and the lower the operation permission should be, and the more prohibited operation functions should be. Therefore, based on the judged interaction relationship between the main driver and the co-driver, the functions suitable for the current co-driver to use among the driving parameter adjustment function, the entertainment service function, the communication and social function, and the information service function can be set as permitted operation functions and the corresponding operation permissions can be set, and the other functions not suitable for the current co-driver to use can be set as prohibited operation functions.

[0077] Optionally, the interaction relationship includes a temporary contractual relationship;

[0078] Step S320: Based on the interaction relationship, set at least one of the driving parameter adjustment function, the entertainment service function, the communication and social function, and the information service function as an allowed manipulation function for the co-pilot, and set the operation authority of the co-pilot for the allowed manipulation function based on the interaction relationship. Specifically:

[0079] When it is determined that the interaction relationship is a temporary contractual relationship, set the entertainment service function and the information service function as allowed manipulation functions, and do not limit the operation authority of the entertainment service function and the information service function.

[0080] The temporary contractual relationship is common between the main and co-pilots of online car-hailing. It is possible to determine the interaction relationship between the main and co-pilots as a temporary contractual relationship when it is determined that there is an inquiry about the last four digits of the mobile phone number and a reply to the last four digits of the mobile phone number in the language interaction information, and there are no intimate actions between the main and co-pilot in the behavior interaction information. In this embodiment, when it is confirmed that the interaction relationship is a temporary contractual relationship, set the entertainment service function and the information service function as allowed manipulation functions, and do not limit the usage authority of the co-pilot for the entertainment service function and the information service function. It can be understood that at this time, the driving parameter adjustment function and the communication and social function are prohibited manipulation functions, and the display icons of the relevant programs of the driving parameter adjustment function and the communication and social function on the in-vehicle tablet computer will be replaced with corresponding abnormal icons. Such a setting can not only prevent the co-pilot in the temporary contractual relationship from obtaining the privacy information of the main driver or affecting the driving parameters through the in-vehicle tablet computer, but also ensure the comfort of the co-pilot during driving.

[0081] With the increasing number of new energy vehicle models in China currently, the probability of some models being reused as private cars and online car-hailing is relatively high, which may easily lead to misjudgment of the interaction relationship in the technical solution of the present invention as a temporary contractual relationship.

[0082] Further, to address this issue, the in-vehicle tablet computer control method further includes:

[0083] Step S500: When it is confirmed that the interaction relationship is a temporary contractual relationship, continue to determine the interaction relationship between the co-pilot and the main driver again based on at least one of the language interaction information and the behavior interaction information;

[0084] Step S600: When the interaction relationship confirmed again is not a temporary contractual relationship, use the interaction relationship confirmed again as the interaction relationship between the co-pilot and the main driver, and determine the allowed manipulation function, operation authority, and prohibited manipulation function corresponding to the co-pilot based on the interaction relationship confirmed again.

[0085] In the above misjudgment scenario, by reconfirming the interaction relationship between the main and co-drivers, when it is determined that there are apology-related words in the language interaction information and there are happy behaviors in the behavioral interaction information, it can be confirmed that the above misjudgment situation has occurred. The interaction relationship between the main and co-drivers is probably not a temporary contractual relationship, but may be a closer relationship. Based on this, the re-determined interaction relationship can be used as the final interaction relationship between the main and co-drivers, and the corresponding permitted manipulation functions, their operation permissions, and prohibited manipulation functions of the co-driver can be re-determined.

[0086] It can be understood that when it is confirmed that the above misjudgment situation does not occur at this time, the interaction relationship between the main and co-drivers remains a temporary contractual relationship.

[0087] Optionally, the interaction relationship includes a social etiquette relationship;

[0088] Based on the interaction relationship, at least one of the driving parameter adjustment function, the entertainment service function, the communication and social function, and the information service function is set as the permitted manipulation function of the co-driver, and the operation permissions of the co-driver with the permitted manipulation function are set based on the interaction relationship, including:

[0089] When it is determined that the interaction relationship is a social etiquette relationship, the driving parameter adjustment function, the entertainment service function, and the information service function are set as permitted manipulation functions, and the operation permissions of the driving parameter adjustment function and the entertainment service function are not restricted, while the operation permissions of the information service function are restricted.

[0090] The social etiquette relationship is common in corporate relationships (such as colleagues, superiors). When it is determined that there are specific hierarchical addresses and work content in the language interaction information and there are no intimate actions between the main and co-drivers in the behavioral interaction information, the interaction relationship between the main and co-drivers can be determined as a social etiquette relationship. In this embodiment, when it is confirmed that the interaction relationship is a social etiquette relationship, the driving parameter adjustment function, the entertainment service function, and the information service function are set as permitted manipulation functions, and the usage permissions of the co-driver for the entertainment service function and the information service function are not restricted, and only the operation permissions of the information service function are restricted. Specifically, the co-driver is restricted from viewing and using information service functions with privacy information, such as restricting the co-driver from using and viewing the recruitment information query function, while the usage of the news push function, the weather information query function, and the road condition information query function is not restricted.

[0091] It can be understood that at this time, only the communication and social function is the prohibited operation function, and the display icon of the relevant program of the communication and social function on the in-vehicle tablet computer will be replaced with a corresponding abnormal icon. Such a setting can not only prevent the co-pilot from obtaining the privacy information of the main driver under the social etiquette relationship, but also ensure the comfort of the co-pilot during driving and the co-pilot's ability to assist the main driver.

[0092] Optionally, the interaction relationship includes an intimate relationship;

[0093] Based on the interaction relationship, at least one of the driving parameter adjustment function, the entertainment service function, the communication and social function, and the information service function is set as an allowed operation function for the co-pilot, and the operation permissions of the co-pilot for the allowed operation functions are set based on the interaction relationship, including:

[0094] When it is determined that the interaction relationship is an intimate relationship, the driving parameter adjustment function, the entertainment service function, and the information service function are all set as allowed operation functions, and the operation permissions for the driving parameter adjustment function, the entertainment service function, and the information service function are not restricted.
