[0034] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the application clearer, the embodiments of the application will be further described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

[0035] In the application, the terms "first", "second", and the like are used to distinguish the same or similar items with basically the same function and purpose, and it should be understood that there is no logical or time sequence relationship between "first", "second", and "nth", and the number and execution order are not limited.

[0036] In the application, the term "at least one" means one or more, and the term "multiple" means two or more.

[0037] It should be noted that the information (including but not limited to user equipment information, user personal information, etc.), data (including but not limited to data for analysis, stored data, displayed data, etc.) and signals involved in the application are all authorized by the user or fully authorized by all parties, and the collection, use and processing of related data need to comply with relevant laws, regulations and standards of relevant countries and regions.

[0038] Figure 1 is an implementation environment schematic diagram of a vehicle starting control method according to an embodiment of the application. Referring to Figure 1 , the implementation environment includes a vehicle 101 and a mobile terminal 102. The vehicle-mounted terminal in the vehicle 101 and the mobile terminal 102 are connected through a wireless network.

[0039] In some embodiments, the vehicle 101 can be a car, a bus, a truck, a taxi, etc. according to the use of the vehicle. According to the power source of the vehicle, the vehicle 101 can be a new energy vehicle, including a pure electric vehicle, a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle, a fuel cell electric vehicle, etc. In addition to the vehicle terminal, the vehicle 101 is also configured with an image acquisition device and an output device. The image acquisition device is used to acquire images inside the vehicle 101, which can be a camera. The output device is used to output information, which can be a display screen, a loudspeaker, etc.

[0040] In some embodiments, the mobile terminal 102 is a terminal associated with the vehicle 101. For example, the mobile terminal 102 can be a terminal used by the owner of the vehicle, such as a smartphone, a tablet computer, a notebook computer, a smart watch, etc., but is not limited thereto. The mobile terminal 102 can be installed and run with an application, which is used to remotely start the vehicle.

[0041] In the embodiments of the present application, after the vehicle terminal of the vehicle 101 receives the remote start instruction, it can perform security verification on the remote start instruction to ensure that the remote start instruction is a legal instruction from the mobile terminal 102. After the verification is passed, the vehicle terminal can control the image acquisition device of the vehicle 101 to acquire images and send the acquired images to the mobile terminal 102, so that the owner can determine whether the vehicle user in the vehicle 101 is a legal person through the images displayed on the mobile terminal 102. After determining that the vehicle user is a legal person, the mobile terminal 102 can send an allow start instruction to the vehicle terminal of the vehicle 101 to enable the vehicle terminal to control the vehicle to start.

[0042] Figure 2 is a flowchart of a vehicle start control method according to an embodiment of the present application. The method is executed by a vehicle terminal of a vehicle, as shown in Figure 2 The vehicle start control method includes the following steps:

[0043] 201, in response to a remote start instruction for a vehicle, the vehicle terminal performs security verification on the remote start instruction to obtain a verification result.

[0044] In the embodiment of the present application, when the vehicle user other than the vehicle owner has a demand for using the vehicle, the vehicle user usually needs to ask the vehicle owner for the physical key of the vehicle to start the vehicle. In order to quickly meet the demand of the vehicle user for using the vehicle without relying on the physical key to start the vehicle, the vehicle owner can send a remote start instruction to the vehicle through the terminal used by the vehicle owner after receiving the vehicle use request. The vehicle terminal can perform security verification on the remote start instruction according to a pre-defined algorithm after receiving the remote start instruction, so as to ensure that the remote start instruction is a legal instruction from the terminal used by the vehicle owner, thereby avoiding that the vehicle terminal controls the vehicle to start based on the remote start instruction sent by an illegal device.

[0045] Optionally, in the security verification process, the vehicle terminal can perform error correction verification on the remote start instruction based on a preset error correction code, so as to avoid that the remote start instruction is tampered or has an error in the sending process. The preset error correction code can be a CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check) code.

[0046] 202. In the case where the verification result is qualified, in response to detecting that the vehicle door is opened, the vehicle terminal controls the image acquisition device of the vehicle to acquire the image of the vehicle user entering the vehicle, and sends the image to the terminal associated with the vehicle. The terminal is used to send an allowed start instruction to the vehicle in the case where it is determined based on the image that the vehicle user is a legal person.

[0047] In the embodiment of the present application, in the case where the verification result of the remote start instruction is qualified, it indicates that the remote start instruction passes the security verification, and therefore the vehicle terminal can send an unlocking instruction to the body controller of the vehicle, so as to control the body controller to unlock the vehicle door. After the vehicle door is unlocked, the vehicle user can enter the cab of the vehicle by opening the vehicle door. Correspondingly, in the case where it is detected that the vehicle door is opened, it is confirmed that the vehicle user has entered the vehicle, and therefore the vehicle terminal can control the image acquisition device of the vehicle to start, so as to make the image acquisition device acquire the image of the vehicle user in the vehicle. When the vehicle terminal receives the image of the vehicle user acquired by the image acquisition device, the vehicle terminal can send the image to the terminal associated with the vehicle, that is, the terminal used by the vehicle owner, through a wireless network.

[0048] After receiving the image of the vehicle user, the terminal associated with the vehicle can display the image and prompt information, the prompt information being used to prompt whether the vehicle user in the image is a legal person. In response to the confirmation operation of the vehicle owner on the prompt information, the terminal can determine that the vehicle user is a legal person, and therefore the terminal can send an allowed start instruction to the vehicle.

[0049] 203. In response to receiving the allowed start instruction of the terminal, the vehicle terminal controls the vehicle to start.

[0050] In the embodiment of the present application, in the case that the vehicle-associated terminal receives the start permission instruction sent by the vehicle-associated terminal, it indicates that the vehicle user entering the vehicle is a legal person, and thus the vehicle terminal sends a start instruction to the power system of the vehicle to control the engine of the vehicle to start.

[0051] The embodiment of the present application provides a vehicle start control method, which can not only perform security verification on the received remote start instruction when remotely starting the vehicle, but also control the image acquisition device of the vehicle to acquire the image of the vehicle user entering the vehicle after the security verification is passed, so that the vehicle terminal can control the vehicle to start in the case that the vehicle-associated terminal determines that the vehicle user is a legal person based on the acquired image, thereby greatly improving the security of remote start of the vehicle.

[0052] Figure 3 It is a flowchart of another vehicle start control method provided by the embodiment of the present application, which is executed by the vehicle terminal of the vehicle, as shown in Figure 3 The vehicle start control method comprises the following steps:

[0053] 301. In response to the remote start instruction of the vehicle, the vehicle terminal performs security verification on the remote start instruction to obtain a verification result.

[0054] In the embodiment of the present application, the step 301 is the same as the step 201 described above, and will not be repeated here.

[0055] 302. In the case that the verification result is qualified, the vehicle terminal controls the vehicle to enter a disarm state, and the disarm state is used to indicate that the anti-theft system of the vehicle is in a non-alert mode and the vehicle door is unlocked.

[0056] In the embodiment of the present application, in the case that the verification result of the remote start instruction is qualified, it indicates that the remote start instruction passes the security verification, and thus the vehicle terminal can send an unlocking instruction to the body controller of the vehicle to control the vehicle to enter the disarm state. The unlocking instruction is used to instruct the body controller to control the vehicle door to be unlocked, and send a disarm instruction to the anti-theft control unit of the vehicle to make the anti-theft system of the vehicle in the non-alert mode. In the non-alert mode, the vehicle will not alarm due to the opening of the vehicle door.

[0057] Optionally, the vehicle terminal can also control the vehicle to accompany the disarm sound and light action in the process of controlling the vehicle to enter the disarm state, to remind the vehicle user that the vehicle enters the disarm state. The disarm sound and light action includes a sound action and a light action. The sound action can be a vehicle unlocking prompt sound, and the light action can be a vehicle light flashing.

[0058] Optionally, in the case that the check result is unqualified, the vehicle terminal can keep the vehicle in a security state, where the security state is used to indicate that the anti-theft system of the vehicle is in an alert mode and the vehicle is locked.

[0059] 303、In the case that the vehicle door is detected to be opened, the vehicle terminal controls the image acquisition device to acquire an image of a vehicle user entering the vehicle, and sends the image to the terminal associated with the vehicle.

[0060] In the embodiments of the present application, after the vehicle door is unlocked, the vehicle user can enter the cab of the vehicle by opening the vehicle door. Accordingly, in the case that the vehicle door is detected to be opened, it can be confirmed that the vehicle user has entered the vehicle, and thus the vehicle terminal can control the image acquisition device of the vehicle to start. After starting, the image acquisition device can acquire images of the environment inside the vehicle in real time, and send the acquired images of the inside of the vehicle to the vehicle-mounted face recognition system. The vehicle-mounted face recognition system can perform face detection on the images of the inside of the vehicle to detect whether the images contain faces. If the vehicle-mounted face recognition system detects a face in the images, the images can be sent to the vehicle terminal, so that the vehicle terminal sends the images to the terminal associated with the vehicle, i.e., the terminal used by the vehicle owner, through a wireless network.

[0061] After receiving the image of the vehicle user, the terminal associated with the vehicle can display the image and prompt information, where the prompt information is used to prompt whether the vehicle user in the image is a legal person. In response to a confirmation operation of the vehicle owner on the prompt information, the terminal can determine that the vehicle user is a legal person, and thus the terminal can send a start permission instruction to the vehicle. Conversely, in response to a denial operation of the vehicle owner on the prompt information, the terminal can determine that the vehicle user is an illegal person, and thus the terminal can send an alarm instruction to the vehicle.

[0062] In some embodiments, the vehicle terminal is further capable of setting a time threshold for the duration of the vehicle being in the disarming state when controlling the vehicle to enter the disarming state. Accordingly, in the case that the vehicle enters the disarming state, if the terminal's permission to start instruction is not received within the time threshold, the vehicle terminal is capable of controlling the vehicle to switch from the disarming state to the arming state, the arming state being used to indicate that the vehicle's anti-theft system is in an alert mode and the vehicle is locked. The time threshold can be 5 minutes, 8 minutes, 10 minutes, which is not limited in the embodiments of the application. If the terminal's permission to start instruction is still not received within the time threshold, the vehicle terminal is capable of sending a locking instruction to the body controller to control the vehicle to enter the arming state. The locking instruction is used to instruct the body controller to control the vehicle's door to be locked, and send an arming instruction to the vehicle's anti-theft control unit, so that the vehicle's anti-theft system is in an alert mode. In the alert mode, the vehicle will issue an alarm when the door is opened. By setting a time threshold for the duration of the disarming state, the vehicle can be prevented from being in the disarming state for a long time when the permission to start instruction is not received for a long time, thereby improving the safety of the vehicle.

[0063] It should be noted that the terminal associated with the vehicle is capable of determining whether the vehicle user is a legal person or an illegal person based on the image. Accordingly, in the case that the vehicle user is determined to be a legal person, the vehicle terminal is capable of performing the following step 304; in the case that the vehicle user is determined to be an illegal person, the vehicle terminal is capable of performing the following steps 305-306.

[0064] 304、In response to receiving the terminal's permission to start instruction, the vehicle terminal controls the vehicle to start.

[0065] In the embodiments of the application, in the case that the permission to start instruction sent by the terminal associated with the vehicle is received, it indicates that the vehicle user entering the vehicle is a legal person, and therefore the vehicle terminal sends a start instruction to the vehicle's power system to control the vehicle's engine to start.

[0066] In some embodiments, after the vehicle is allowed to start, the vehicle user can start the vehicle by voice or password. Accordingly, the vehicle terminal is capable of controlling the vehicle to start in the following two implementation manners.

[0067] Implementation manner one: in response to receiving the terminal's permission to start instruction, the vehicle terminal controls the vehicle's loudspeaker to output voice prompt information, the voice prompt information being used to prompt the vehicle user to start the vehicle; in response to receiving a voice control signal for starting the vehicle, the vehicle terminal is capable of controlling the vehicle's engine to start. The vehicle also has a voice collection device, such as a microphone. The voice collection device is used to collect the vehicle user's voice data. The voice control signal is a keyword for starting the vehicle recognized from the collected voice data, such as the keyword being "start using / starting the vehicle".

[0068] In a second implementation, in response to receiving the permission starting instruction of the terminal, the vehicle terminal controls a display screen of the vehicle to display a password input interface, the password input interface displays prompt information, the prompt information is used to prompt the user to input a password, in response to a password input operation on the password input interface, the vehicle terminal acquires the password input on the password input interface, and in a case where the password is consistent with a preset password, the vehicle terminal controls the vehicle to start. In this way, after determining that the user is a legal person, the terminal associated with the vehicle can also send the preset password to the terminal used by the user designated by the vehicle owner in the form of a short message, so that the user designated by the vehicle owner can input the correct password on the password input interface. If the password input by the user is inconsistent with the preset password, it indicates that the user entering the vehicle is not the user truly designated by the vehicle owner, that is, an illegal person has invaded the image acquisition device of the vehicle, so that the image acquired by the image acquisition device is not the real image of the user, but a false image after face replacement of the user, thereby causing the terminal used by the vehicle owner to confirm that the user is a legal person. By displaying the password input interface after receiving the permission starting instruction, a second confirmation can be performed before starting the vehicle, thereby further improving the security of remote starting of the vehicle.

[0069] In some embodiments, the vehicle terminal can also automatically control the vehicle to enter an armed state after the user completes the use of the vehicle. Accordingly, in a case where the gear of the vehicle is detected to be a parking gear and the door of the vehicle is opened, it indicates that the vehicle is stopped and the user can open the door to get off, and therefore the vehicle terminal can determine that the user has the intention to end the use of the vehicle. In order to further determine whether the user has left the vehicle, the vehicle terminal can control the image acquisition device of the vehicle to acquire an image of the driving position of the vehicle, and in a case where the user is not present in the image of the driving position of the vehicle and the door of the vehicle is closed, the vehicle terminal can confirm that the user has left the vehicle, and therefore the vehicle terminal can control the vehicle to enter an armed state, the armed state being used to indicate that the anti-theft system of the vehicle is in an alert mode and the vehicle is locked. By controlling the vehicle to enter the armed state after detecting that the user ends the use of the vehicle, the safety of the vehicle can be ensured.

[0070] Optionally, in a case where the gear of the vehicle is detected to be a parking gear and the door of the vehicle is opened, the vehicle terminal can also control the loudspeaker of the vehicle to output prompt information and control the display screen of the vehicle to display the prompt information. The prompt information is used to prompt the user whether to end the use of the vehicle. In response to receiving a voice control signal for ending the use of the vehicle or detecting a confirmation operation on the prompt information displayed on the display screen, the vehicle terminal can control the vehicle to enter the armed state after confirming that the user has left the vehicle.

[0071] Optionally, the vehicle terminal is further capable of sending vehicle information to the terminal associated with the vehicle, the vehicle information being used to prompt the vehicle owner that the vehicle has completed this use and is in a security state.

[0072] 305、In response to receiving the alarm instruction of the terminal, the vehicle terminal controls the vehicle to enter a locking state, the locking state being used to indicate that the doors, engine and steering wheel of the vehicle are locked.

[0073] In the embodiments of the present application, in the case that the alarm instruction sent by the terminal associated with the vehicle is received, it indicates that the person who enters the vehicle is an illegal person, therefore the vehicle terminal can immediately control the vehicle to enter a locking state. In the locking state, the doors, engine and steering wheel of the vehicle are locked. In the case that the doors are locked, the person who uses the vehicle cannot open the doors from inside the vehicle, thereby avoiding the illegal person from escaping during the process of invading the vehicle. In the case that the engine and steering wheel are locked, the engine cannot be started and the steering wheel cannot be turned, thereby avoiding the illegal person from starting the vehicle by illegal means.

[0074] 306、In the case that the vehicle enters the locking state, the vehicle terminal controls the vehicle to alarm.

[0075] In the embodiments of the present application, in the case that the vehicle enters the locking state, it indicates that the illegal person is located in the vehicle and cannot move, therefore the vehicle terminal can control the vehicle to alarm, to prompt that the vehicle is invaded by the illegal person.

[0076] In some embodiments, the vehicle terminal controls the vehicle to alarm, including at least one of the following:

[0077] (1) controlling the speaker of the vehicle to emit an alarm sound. The speaker is also the horn of the vehicle, which can emit a high-decibel alarm sound.

[0078] (2) controlling the warning light of the vehicle to turn on. The warning light can be the headlamp, tail lamp, turn signal lamp and the like of the vehicle, or can be a special anti-theft alarm light designed for the vehicle, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit this. By controlling the speaker of the vehicle to emit an alarm sound and controlling the warning light of the vehicle to turn on, the vehicle owner or the people around the vehicle can pay attention to the vehicle in time, to avoid the illegal person from damaging the vehicle.

[0079] (3) sending alarm information to the server accessed by the security management mechanism, the alarm information including the image of the person who uses the vehicle and the location of the vehicle. By sending the image of the person who uses the vehicle and the location of the vehicle to the server accessed by the security management mechanism, the security management mechanism can be timely notified that the vehicle is invaded by illegal means, to facilitate the security management personnel to quickly go on duty, to ensure the safety of the vehicle.

[0080] The embodiments of the present application will be described below in combination with Figure 4A structural schematic diagram of the vehicle starting control system is shown, and the vehicle starting control scheme provided by the embodiment of the application is described as a whole. Figure 4 As shown, the terminal used by the vehicle owner can send a remote starting instruction to the TBOX (Telematics Box, vehicle terminal) of the vehicle through a wireless network, the TBOX can perform security verification on the remote starting instruction, and after the verification is passed, the vehicle is allowed to be disarmed, that is, the vehicle body controller is allowed to control the vehicle door to be unlocked. After the vehicle is disarmed, the user can open the door and get on the vehicle. The TBOX can control the camera configured with the vehicle face recognition system to start collecting the face information of the user, and send the collected face information to the terminal used by the vehicle owner through a wireless network. After the vehicle owner confirms that the information is correct, the terminal used by the vehicle owner can send an allowed starting instruction to the TBOX. After the allowed starting, the TBOX directly prompts the user through the vehicle voice "you can start the vehicle, please start the vehicle directly", or the TBOX controls the display screen to pop up a password input prompt "please enter the password", and the user can directly start the vehicle after entering the legal password. When the vehicle owner confirms that the user is an illegal person, the vehicle owner can click the one-key alarm button displayed on the terminal, so that the terminal can send an alarm instruction to the TBOX. At this time, the vehicle will be locked and the sound and light alarm function will be triggered, that is, the TBOX controls the vehicle door to be locked through the vehicle body controller, controls the horn to alarm and controls the warning light to be on. After the user finishes using the vehicle, the TBOX can prompt the user through the vehicle voice whether to end this use, and controls the display screen to synchronously pop up a prompt box, when the voice reply "end use" of the user is collected or the "confirm" button on the display screen is clicked, and the camera monitors that the user leaves the vehicle and closes the door, the TBOX will automatically set the vehicle to be in a defense state.

[0081] The embodiment of the application provides a vehicle starting control method, which can not only perform security verification on the received remote starting instruction when remotely starting the vehicle, but also control the image acquisition device of the vehicle to acquire the image of the user entering the vehicle after the security verification is passed, so that the vehicle terminal can control the vehicle to start under the condition that the vehicle terminal determines that the user is a legal person based on the acquired image, thereby greatly improving the security of the remote starting of the vehicle.
