However, those skilled in the art should understand that the present application can also be implemented in other embodiments without these specific details.

[0045] Reference to "one embodiment" or "some embodiments" or the like described in the specification of this application means that a specific feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment is included in one or more embodiments of this application. Thus, statements such as "in one embodiment", "in some embodiments", "in other some embodiments", "in still other embodiments", etc. that appear in different places in this specification do not necessarily all refer to the same embodiment, but mean "one or more but not all embodiments", unless otherwise specifically emphasized in another way.

[0046] Existing vehicles with autonomous driving functions are all equipped with autonomous driving identification lights, which are usually set on the doors or the body of the vehicle, thus causing problems such as an increase in vehicle cost and occupation of the space of the vehicle body.

[0047] Based on the above problems, this application provides an integrated vehicle lamp, which integrates the autonomous driving identification lamp and the vehicle condition indicator lamp of the vehicle to form an integrated vehicle lamp. The vehicle condition indicator lamp of the vehicle can be a rearview mirror turn signal lamp, a turn signal lamp at the rear of the vehicle, or a turn signal lamp at the front of the vehicle. In addition, designers can also integrate the autonomous driving identification lamp and other vehicle condition indicator lamps on the vehicle according to actual needs, which is not limited here.

[0048] The integrated vehicle lamp may include a first light-emitting lamp capable of emitting light of a first color and a second light-emitting lamp capable of emitting light of a second color. When the first light-emitting lamp emits light, it is used to indicate that the vehicle is in the autonomous driving mode. When pedestrians or other vehicles observe that the integrated vehicle lamp of the vehicle emits light of the first color, they know that the vehicle is in the autonomous driving mode. The second light-emitting lamp can emit light of the second color in a lighting manner corresponding to the first control signal. When pedestrians or other vehicles observe that the integrated vehicle lamp of the vehicle emits light of the second color and the lighting manner of the integrated vehicle lamp, they know the current driving condition of the vehicle.

[0049] In addition, the light-emitting lamp in the integrated vehicle lamp can also use a third light-emitting lamp (e.g., an RGB lamp) that can emit multiple colors. When the autonomous driving function of the vehicle is turned on, the third light-emitting lamp emits light of a first color. When pedestrians or other vehicles observe that the integrated vehicle lamp of the vehicle emits light of the first color, they know that the vehicle is in the autonomous driving mode. The third light-emitting lamp can also emit light of a second color in a lighting manner corresponding to the first control signal. When pedestrians or other vehicles observe that the integrated vehicle lamp of the vehicle emits light of the second color and the lighting manner of the integrated vehicle lamp, they know the current driving condition of the vehicle.

[0050] Exemplarily, the first color is cyan, and the second color is amber. In addition, designers can design the first color and the second color as other colors according to actual needs to meet the requirements.

[0051] By integrating the autonomous driving identification lamp and the driving condition indicator lamp on the vehicle, there is no need to reserve additional installation space for the autonomous driving identification lamp on the door or the vehicle body, reducing the space occupied on the vehicle. At the same time, integrating the autonomous driving identification lamp and the driving condition indicator lamp on the vehicle can also reduce the cost of the vehicle lamp, and thus can reduce the production cost of the whole vehicle.

[0052] After integrating the autonomous driving identification lamp and the driving condition indicator lamp on the vehicle, due to the limitations of some standard regulations, the autonomous driving identification lamp and the driving condition indicator lamp cannot be lit simultaneously. Therefore, how to light the integrated vehicle lamp has become a design problem.

[0053] Based on the above problems, an embodiment of the present application provides an integrated vehicle lamp control method. Refer to Figure 1 As shown, the integrated vehicle lamp control method includes step S101 and step S102.

[0054] Step S101, when the autonomous driving function of the vehicle is activated, control the integrated vehicle lamp to emit light of a first color.

[0055] Specifically, when the autonomous driving function of the vehicle is activated, the vehicle enters the autonomous driving mode. At this time, control the integrated vehicle lamp on the vehicle to emit light of a first color. When pedestrians or other vehicles observe that the integrated vehicle lamp of the vehicle emits light of the first color, they know that the vehicle is in the autonomous driving mode.

[0056] It should be noted that when the integrated vehicle lamp emits light of the first color, the integrated vehicle lamp can emit light of the first color in a constant-on manner or in a flashing manner. The lighting manner of the integrated vehicle lamp is not limited herein.

[0057] Step S102, when receiving a first control signal for characterizing a preset driving condition of the vehicle, control the integrated vehicle lamp to emit light of a second color in a lighting manner corresponding to the first control signal.

[0058] Specifically, during the automatic driving process of the vehicle, when the vehicle is in some driving conditions, it is necessary to integrate the lighting prompt of the vehicle lights, that is, when the vehicle is in a preset condition, it is necessary to integrate the lighting prompt of the vehicle lights. When receiving the first control signal used to represent the preset driving condition of the vehicle, control the integrated vehicle lights to emit light of a second color in a lighting manner corresponding to the first control signal. When the vehicle is in different driving conditions, the lighting manner of the integrated vehicle lights is different. Pedestrians or other vehicles can know the current driving condition of the vehicle by observing the light of the second color emitted by the integrated vehicle lights of the vehicle and the lighting manner of the integrated vehicle lights.

[0059] Exemplarily, the preset driving conditions of the vehicle may include an emergency braking condition, a steering condition, and a danger warning condition. Correspondingly, the first control signal may include an emergency braking control signal, a steering control signal, and a danger warning control signal.

[0060] When receiving the emergency braking control signal, control the integrated vehicle lights on both sides of the vehicle to flash and emit light, and the integrated vehicle lights emit light of a second color when emitting light. After pedestrians or other vehicles observe the lighting situation of the integrated vehicle lights of the vehicle, they can know that the vehicle is in the emergency braking condition.

[0061] When receiving the danger warning control signal, control the integrated vehicle lights on both sides of the vehicle to flash and emit light, and the integrated vehicle lights emit light of a second color when emitting light. After pedestrians or other vehicles observe the lighting situation of the integrated vehicle lights of the vehicle, they can know that the vehicle is in the danger warning condition.

[0062] When receiving the steering control signal, control the integrated vehicle lights on the side corresponding to the steering control signal on the vehicle to flash and emit light, and the integrated vehicle lights emit light of a second color when emitting light. After pedestrians or other vehicles observe the lighting situation of the integrated vehicle lights of the vehicle, they can know that the vehicle is in the steering condition.

[0063] When the vehicle is in the danger warning condition and the emergency braking condition, the integrated vehicle lights on both sides of the vehicle flash and emit light. In order to distinguish the two conditions, designers can design the flashing frequency of the integrated vehicle lights. For example, when the vehicle is in the emergency braking condition, the flashing frequency of the integrated vehicle lights on both sides of the vehicle is higher than that when the vehicle is in the danger warning condition, or when the vehicle is in the emergency braking condition, the flashing frequency of the integrated vehicle lights on both sides of the vehicle is lower than that when the vehicle is in the danger warning condition.

[0064] Only some examples of the preset driving conditions of the vehicle are given above. Designers can also set other conditions of the vehicle as the preset driving conditions according to actual needs, which are not limited here.

[0065] Through steps S101 and S102, when the autonomous driving function of the vehicle is activated, the integrated vehicle lights are controlled to emit light of a first color. When a pedestrian or another vehicle observes that the integrated vehicle lights of the vehicle emit light of the first color, it is known that the vehicle is in the autonomous driving mode. When the vehicle is in the autonomous driving mode, if a first control signal for characterizing a preset driving condition of the vehicle is received, the integrated vehicle lights are controlled to emit light of a second color in a lighting manner corresponding to the first control signal. A pedestrian or another vehicle can know the current driving condition of the vehicle by observing the lighting manner of the integrated vehicle lights and the light of the second color emitted. The integrated vehicle light control method provided by the embodiments of the present application can not only control the integrated vehicle lights to emit light of a first color to indicate that the vehicle is currently in the autonomous driving mode, but also control the integrated vehicle lights to emit light of a second color in a lighting manner corresponding to the first control signal to indicate the current driving condition of the vehicle. By integrating the autonomous driving indicator light on the vehicle condition indicator light to form the integrated vehicle lights, the integrated vehicle lights have the functions of the autonomous driving indicator light and the vehicle condition indicator light, and there is no need to additionally set an autonomous driving indicator light on the vehicle, reducing the space occupied by the vehicle and at the same time reducing the production cost of the vehicle.

[0066] In an embodiment of the present application, if a first control signal for characterizing a preset driving condition of the vehicle is received, the integrated vehicle lights are controlled to alternately emit light of the first color and light of the second color periodically.

[0067] Specifically, when the vehicle is in the autonomous driving mode, if the vehicle enters a preset driving condition, that is, when a first control signal for characterizing a preset driving condition of the vehicle is received, the integrated vehicle lights are controlled to alternately emit light of the first color and light of the second color periodically. The light of the first color indicates that the vehicle is currently in the autonomous driving state, and the light of the second color and the manner of emitting the light of the second color indicate the current driving condition of the vehicle. By controlling the integrated vehicle lights to alternately emit light of the first color and light of the second color periodically, a pedestrian or another vehicle can more comprehensively know the current situation of the vehicle by observing the light emitted by the integrated vehicle lights, thereby improving the prompting effect of the integrated vehicle lights.

[0068] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 shown, step S102 includes steps S1021 to S1023.

[0069] Step S1021, controlling the integrated vehicle lights to emit light of the second color.

[0070] Specifically, when the autonomous driving function of the vehicle is activated, that is, when the vehicle is in the autonomous driving state, if a first control signal for characterizing the preset driving condition of the vehicle is received at this time, the integrated vehicle lights are controlled to emit light of a second color, and the integrated vehicle lights no longer emit light of the first color. At this time, when a pedestrian or other vehicle observes that the integrated vehicle lights of the vehicle emit light of the second color, they can know the current driving condition of the vehicle.

[0071] Step S1022, after a first preset time period, control the integrated vehicle lights to emit light of the first color.

[0072] Specifically, after a first preset time period, control the integrated vehicle lights to emit light of the first color, and the integrated vehicle lights no longer emit light of the second color. When a pedestrian or other vehicle observes that the integrated vehicle lights of the vehicle emit light of the second color, they know that the vehicle is in the autonomous driving mode.

[0073] Step S1023, after a second preset time period, continue to execute the step of controlling the integrated vehicle lights to emit light of the second color.

[0074] Specifically, after a second preset time period, continue to execute the step of controlling the integrated vehicle lights to emit light of the second color, that is, control the integrated vehicle lights to emit light of the second color, and the integrated vehicle lights no longer emit light of the first color. At this time, when a pedestrian or other vehicle observes that the integrated vehicle lights of the vehicle emit light of the second color, they can know the current driving condition of the vehicle.

[0075] Through steps S1021 to S1023, when the vehicle is in the autonomous driving mode and the vehicle is in the preset driving condition, the integrated vehicle lights are controlled to alternately emit light of the first color and the second color periodically. The first color light indicates that the vehicle is currently in the autonomous driving state, and the second color light and the way of emitting the second color light indicate the current condition of the vehicle. By controlling the integrated vehicle lights to alternately emit light of the first color and the second color periodically, pedestrians or other vehicles can more comprehensively know the current situation of the vehicle by observing the light emitted by the integrated vehicle lights, thereby improving the prompting effect of the integrated vehicle lights.

[0076] In some embodiments, the second preset time period is less than the first preset time period.

[0077] Specifically, when the vehicle is in the autonomous driving mode and the vehicle is in a preset driving condition, the vehicle should preferentially display the driving condition of the vehicle. When controlling the integrated vehicle lamp to periodically emit light of a first color and light of a second color alternately, in one lighting cycle, the time for the integrated vehicle lamp to emit light of the second color is a first preset duration, and the time for the integrated vehicle lamp to emit light of the first color is a second preset duration, and the second preset duration is less than the first preset duration. That is, in one lighting cycle, the time for the integrated vehicle lamp to emit light of the second color is greater than the time for it to emit light of the first color, so that the time for the integrated vehicle lamp to emit light of the second color is relatively long, which emphasizes the current condition of the vehicle; at the same time, the integrated vehicle lamp emits light of the first color for a short time, indicating that the vehicle is currently in the autonomous driving mode.

[0078] In some embodiments, the integrated vehicle lamp includes a first light-emitting lamp and a second light-emitting lamp. The first light-emitting lamp is used to emit light of a first color, and the second light-emitting lamp is used to emit light of a second color. When receiving a first control signal for characterizing the preset driving condition of the vehicle, control the first light-emitting lamp to turn off, and control the second light-emitting lamp to emit light of the second color in a lighting manner corresponding to the first control signal.

[0079] Specifically, if the integrated vehicle lamp includes a first light-emitting lamp and a second light-emitting lamp, the first light-emitting lamp is used to emit light of a first color, and the second light-emitting lamp is used to emit light of a second color. When the vehicle is in the autonomous driving mode, when receiving a first control signal for characterizing the preset driving condition of the vehicle, control the first light-emitting lamp to turn off and no longer display the autonomous driving mode; at the same time, control the second light-emitting lamp to emit light of the second color according to the first control signal. When pedestrians or other vehicles observe that the integrated vehicle lamp of the vehicle emits light of the second color, they can know the current driving condition of the vehicle. This design can prevent the display of light of the first color by the integrated vehicle lamp from affecting the response to the driving condition of the vehicle. At this time, the integrated vehicle lamp can more stably and accurately reflect the driving condition of the vehicle.

[0080] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 shown, the integrated vehicle lamp control method further includes steps S301 to S303.

[0081] Step S301, when receiving a second control signal for characterizing the preset driving condition of the vehicle, determine the priority levels of the first control signal and the second control signal.

[0082] Specifically, the first control signal can be any one of an emergency braking control signal, a steering control signal, and a hazard warning control signal, and the second control signal can also be any one of an emergency braking control signal, a steering control signal, and a hazard warning control signal.

[0083] After receiving the first control signal and the second control signal simultaneously, determine the priorities of the first control signal and the second control signal.

[0084] Designers can pre-set the priorities of each control signal according to actual needs. For example, set the priority of the emergency braking control signal to be higher than that of the steering control signal, and the priority of the steering control signal to be higher than that of the hazard warning control signal.

[0085] Step S302, if the priority of the first control signal is higher than that of the second control signal, control the integrated vehicle lamp to emit light of the second color in the lighting mode corresponding to the first control signal.

[0086] Step S303, if the priority of the first control signal is lower than that of the second control signal, control the integrated vehicle lamp to emit light of the second color in the lighting mode corresponding to the second control signal.

[0087] Specifically, after determining the priorities of the first control signal and the second control signal, the control signal with the higher priority is preferentially executed. For example, the priority of the emergency braking control signal is higher than that of the steering control signal, and the priority of the steering control signal is higher than that of the hazard warning control signal. When the first control signal is the emergency braking control signal and the second control signal is the steering control signal, since the priority of the emergency braking control signal is higher than that of the steering control signal, the integrated vehicle lamp is controlled to emit light of the second color according to the first control signal, and pedestrians or other vehicles can know that the vehicle is currently in the emergency braking condition by observing the state of the integrated vehicle lamp. When the first control signal is the hazard warning control signal and the second control signal is the steering control signal, since the priority of the steering control signal is higher than that of the hazard warning control signal, the integrated vehicle lamp is controlled to emit light of the second color according to the second control signal, and pedestrians or other vehicles can know that the vehicle is currently in the steering condition by observing the state of the integrated vehicle lamp.

[0088] By designing the priorities of each control signal, it is possible to prevent errors in the control logic of the integrated vehicle lamp when multiple control signals are received, resulting in the problem that the integrated vehicle lamp cannot be displayed normally, and improve the stability and accuracy of the integrated vehicle lamp display.

[0089] It should be understood that the magnitudes of the sequence numbers of the steps in the above embodiments do not mean the order of execution. The order of execution of each process should be determined by its function and internal logic, and should not constitute any limitation to the implementation process of the embodiments of the present application.
