[0053] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Apparently, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Usually, the components of the embodiments of the present application described and illustrated herein can be arranged and designed in various different configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present application provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the present application to be protected, but merely represents selected embodiments of the present application. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present application without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.

[0054] It should be noted that the term "including" will be used in the embodiments of the present application to indicate the existence of the subsequently stated features, but does not exclude the addition of other features.

[0055] In the prior art, to implement the access of a smart terminal to the intelligent cockpit of a vehicle, the vehicle host factory needs to develop and adjust the vehicle-mounted system. Before using the smart terminal, the user first configures and installs applications on the vehicle-mounted system, and then can achieve wired communication or wireless communication with the smart terminal based on the applications deployed on the vehicle-mounted system.

[0056] That is, when the current smart terminal communicates with the in-vehicle system of a vehicle, it is first necessary to ensure that the in-vehicle system supports the communication method and communication protocol of the smart terminal. Secondly, it is also necessary to ensure that there is an application for controlling the smart terminal in the in-vehicle system.

[0057] However, existing technologies often communicate or transfer data with smart terminals through wired or wireless methods. Since different smart terminals have different communication methods and communication protocols, the in-vehicle system generally has poor compatibility. Moreover, when performing wireless communication based on existing technologies, it depends on the data network, resulting in low connection efficiency and poor stability. When performing wired communication, there is also the problem of single function.

[0058] If the in-vehicle system is to be adapted to different smart terminals, it is necessary to conduct specialized development for the communication and functional logic of the in-vehicle system. Due to the diversity of smart terminal communication protocols and corresponding applications, there will be a problem of high complexity when developing the in-vehicle system.

[0059] In the current methods for controlling smart terminals through applications, users need to manually install and configure the applications on the in-vehicle system in advance, and this process will also affect the user experience.

[0060] Based on this, the present application proposes a smart terminal access method. By integrating the communication method and communication protocol for communicating with smart terminals in the access device, and integrating the deployment and configuration information of the applications corresponding to smart terminals on the in-vehicle system, it is possible to achieve automatic deployment and configuration of applications and seamless interaction between the in-vehicle system and smart terminals after inserting the access device into the interface of the in-vehicle system. Moreover, it is not necessary to perform additional development on the in-vehicle system, which has good compatibility and practicability and effectively improves the user experience.

[0061] The method of the present application can be applied to a smart terminal communication system. Taking the communication system between the in-vehicle system and smart terminals as an example, Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of the architecture of a smart terminal communication system given in the present application. Referring to Figure 1 , in the smart terminal communication system, there are an in-vehicle system, an access device, and a smart terminal. A target application is deployed in the in-vehicle system, and users can control smart terminals and view data through the target application. Smart terminals can be mobile phones, computers, smart speakers, smart headphones, smart bracelets, walkie-talkies, aroma diffusers, etc. that can be connected to the in-vehicle system. The access device and the in-vehicle system can be communicatively connected through a preset interface on the vehicle. The preset interface can be a USB (Universal Serial Bus) interface or a type-C interface, etc., of the in-vehicle system.

[0062] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the architecture of the access device provided in this application. Refer to Figure 2 , the access device includes an upper communication module, a storage module, and a lower communication module. The upper communication module can be a USB interface or a Type-C interface, etc., and can realize communication and data interaction between the access device and the vehicle-mounted system based on communication protocols such as USB, Type-C, or serial port. The lower communication module can be communication methods such as BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy), WiFi, Zigbee, 2.4GHz, radio frequency, etc., to realize communication and data interaction with the smart terminal. The storage module can store the protocol stack of the lower communication module and the communication control software, including the data definition protocol and logic control software for communicating with the smart terminal, and at the same time includes applications for deployment in the vehicle-mounted system, including scripts for application deployment and scripts for application configuration.

[0063] As an optional implementation, the access device can further include a control module, which is used to realize the automatic deployment and configuration of applications, and the forwarding of interaction information between the vehicle-mounted system and the smart terminal. The control module of the access device can also include security mechanisms for the upper communication module and the lower communication module. The security mechanisms include at least one of the following: data encryption, identity authentication, code signing, authorization, and permission mechanism.

[0064] Next, in combination with Figure 3 , the smart terminal access method of this application will be described. This method can be applied to Figure 1 the smart terminal communication system shown in Figure 3 As shown, this method includes:

[0065] S301. After the access device is inserted into the communication interface of the vehicle-mounted system, the access device establishes a communication connection with the vehicle-mounted system through the upper communication module.

[0066] Optionally, the communication interface of the vehicle-mounted system can be a USB interface or a Type-C interface, etc. After the access device is inserted into the communication interface of the vehicle-mounted system, the vehicle-mounted system can supply power to the access device and establish a communication connection with the access device.

[0067] Among them, the vehicle-mounted system can establish a connection with the access device through the upper communication module. For example, it can read data from the access device through the upper communication module and realize communication with the smart terminal through the upper communication module. For example, it can issue control instructions to the smart terminal via the upper communication module.

[0068] S302. The vehicle-mounted system or the access device determines whether the target application has been deployed in the vehicle-mounted system. If not, the vehicle-mounted system installs and configures the target application in the vehicle-mounted system according to the deployment information and configuration information in the storage module.

[0069] Optionally, the access device may include deployment information and configuration information of an application of a smart terminal, or may include deployment information and configuration information of applications of multiple smart terminals. In this case, one of the multiple smart terminals can be selected for application deployment and configuration.

[0070] Among them, the target application can be an application for controlling a smart terminal. After the target application is deployed on the in-vehicle system, the user can interact with the smart terminal through the application interface of the target application on the in-vehicle system.

[0071] The deployment information can be a deployment script for deploying the target application, or an SDK package of the target application, etc. The configuration information can be configurations such as power-on self-start and background keep-alive for the target application, and a script for initializing the configuration of the target application.

[0072] In the first implementation manner, the in-vehicle system can determine whether the applications included in the access device have been deployed in the in-vehicle system. If the applications have not been deployed in the in-vehicle system, the in-vehicle system can deploy and configure the target application corresponding to the smart terminal according to the deployment information and configuration information in the storage module.

[0073] In the second implementation manner, the access device can determine whether the applications included in the access device have been deployed in the in-vehicle system. If there are multiple applications in the access device that have not been deployed in the in-vehicle system, a prompt message can be generated for the user to select the applications to be deployed, and the in-vehicle system can deploy and configure the target application corresponding to the smart terminal according to the deployment information and configuration information in the storage module.

[0074] It should be noted that the storage module of the access device may also include functions for upgrading the smart terminal or the access device, diagnosing faults of the smart terminal or the in-vehicle system, or may include other integrated functions for the smart terminal or the in-vehicle system, which are not limited in this application.

[0075] S303. After the target application is deployed and configured, the smart terminal interacts with the in-vehicle system via the upper communication module and the lower communication module of the access device and the target application.

[0076] Optionally, after the target application is deployed and configured, a prompt message can be sent to the user through the application interface on the in-vehicle system, and the target application can be started.

[0077] The user can send instructions through the application interface of the target application provided by the in-vehicle system to send the instructions to the smart terminal via the upper communication module and the lower communication module of the access device. The smart terminal can also upload data or send request information to the in-vehicle system via the upper communication module and the lower communication module of the access device.

[0078] It should be noted that since the communication protocols and communication methods required for intelligent terminal communication have been pre-deployed in the lower communication module, through the forwarding of the access device, the communication between the in-vehicle system and the intelligent terminal can be achieved without changing the logical functions and communication methods of the in-vehicle system.

[0079] In the embodiments of the present application, by integrating the application deployment information and configuration information in the access device, establishing a communication connection with the in-vehicle system through the upper communication module of the access device, and establishing a communication connection with the intelligent terminal through the lower communication module of the access device. Moreover, the communication protocols and communication methods of different intelligent terminals in the present application can be pre-integrated in the access device. Therefore, it is not necessary to specifically develop and adjust the functional logic and communication of the in-vehicle system, and it has good compatibility and universality for different types of intelligent terminals and in-vehicle systems. Compared with the application deployment and configuration methods in the prior art, the present application has the characteristics of high automation, which can help intelligent terminal products quickly access the in-vehicle system, effectively improve the efficiency of application deployment and configuration, and thus improve the user experience. In addition, the present application supports multiple communication protocols, so it can adapt to the connection requirements of different intelligent terminals. Different intelligent terminals can select the most stable connection method, which is more flexible than the prior art and can further ensure the stability and reliability of the connection.

[0080] The following is a further description of the first implementation manner for the in-vehicle system or the access device to determine whether a target application has been deployed in the in-vehicle system, as Figure 4 shown, the above step S302 includes:

[0081] S401. The in-vehicle system reads the deployment information and / or configuration information in the storage module through the upper communication module.

[0082] S402. The in-vehicle system obtains the identifier of the target application according to the deployment information and / or configuration information.

[0083] Optionally, both the deployment information and the configuration information can indicate the identifier of the target application in the storage module. The identifier of the target application can be the application name, application package identifier, etc. of the target application.

[0084] Before obtaining the application identifier, the in-vehicle system can first perform a security check on the configuration information and deployment information in the storage module. After ensuring that the target application is a secure application, then obtain the identifier of the target application. If there is a risk with the target application, the in-vehicle system can generate a risk prompt on the in-vehicle interface to ask the user whether to continue with the application installation, and block the installation process of the target application when the target application is an illegal application.

[0085] The in-vehicle system can read the deployment information and / or configuration information of the application from the access device and determine the identifier of the target application. When there are multiple applications, it can sequentially determine whether each application is an installed application.

[0086] S403. The in-vehicle system determines whether the target application has been deployed in the in-vehicle system according to the identifier of the target application.

[0087] As a possible implementation, the in-vehicle system can match the identifier of the target application with the identifiers of the installed applications in the in-vehicle system to determine whether the target application has been deployed in the in-vehicle system.

[0088] Optionally, if the identifier of the target application is the same as the identifier of the installed application in the in-vehicle system, it is considered that the in-vehicle system has deployed the target application. At this time, the in-vehicle system can check the version of the deployed application and the version of the target application in the access device. If the application version in the access device is a newer version, the application in the in-vehicle system can be updated, and the target application in the in-vehicle system can be started after the update is completed.

[0089] In the second implementation, the step of determining whether the target application has been deployed in the in-vehicle system can also be completed by the control module in the access device, such as Figure 5 As shown, the steps for the access device to determine whether the target application has been deployed in the in-vehicle system include:

[0090] S501. The access device reads the deployment information and / or configuration information in the storage module.

[0091] S502. The access device obtains the identifier of the target application according to the deployment information and / or configuration information.

[0092] Among them, the step for the access device to obtain the identifier of the target application based on the deployment information and / or configuration information is the same as the steps of S401 - S402 above, and this application will not elaborate here.

[0093] S503. The access device sends a first request message to the in-vehicle system through the upper communication module. The first request message is used to request the in-vehicle system to determine whether the target application exists in the in-vehicle system, or the first request message is used to request to obtain the identifiers of the applications deployed in the in-vehicle system.

[0094] In the first implementation, the access device can send the identifier of the target application to the in-vehicle system via the upper communication module, and the in-vehicle system determines whether the target application in the access device is a deployed application.

[0095] In the second implementation, the access device can send a first request message to the in-vehicle system to obtain the application identifiers of the installed applications in the in-vehicle system.

[0096] S504. The access device determines whether the target application has been deployed in the in-vehicle system according to the response information of the first request information sent by the in-vehicle system.

[0097] For the first implementation manner described above, the response information of the first request information may be that the in-vehicle system determines that the target application has been deployed, or the information that the target application has not been deployed.

[0098] For the second implementation manner in the above S503 step, the response information of the first request information may be the application identifier of the deployed application sent by the in-vehicle system. After receiving the response information, the access device may compare the application identifier in the response information with the identifier of the target application stored by itself, so as to determine whether the target application is a deployed application on the in-vehicle system.

[0099] Optionally, the deployment information includes: a deployment script. The steps for the in-vehicle system to install and configure the target application in the in-vehicle system according to the deployment information and configuration information in the storage module are as Figure 6 shown, including:

[0100] S601. The in-vehicle system obtains the deployment information and configuration information from the storage module.

[0101] It should be noted that if the step of determining whether the target application has been deployed in the in-vehicle system is completed by the in-vehicle system, that is, the in-vehicle system has obtained the deployment information and configuration information from the storage module, this step can be skipped and the following step S602 can be directly executed; if the step of determining whether the target application has been deployed in the in-vehicle system is completed by the access device, the in-vehicle system can first obtain the deployment information and configuration information from the storage module.

[0102] Optionally, if there are multiple applications in the access device that have not been deployed on the in-vehicle system, the user can select at least one application to be deployed from the multiple applications as the target application, and the in-vehicle system obtains the deployment information and configuration information of the target application selected by the user from the storage module.

[0103] S602. The in-vehicle system runs the deployment script to install the target application in the in-vehicle system.

[0104] S603. The in-vehicle system adjusts the application parameters of the target application according to the configuration information.

[0105] The in-vehicle system can automatically run the deployment script, install the target application in the in-vehicle system, and open the application interface of the target application after the installation is completed, respond to the user's configuration instructions, or automatically complete the configuration of the target application according to the configuration information.

[0106] Among them, the configuration information may include compatibility check, permission configuration, security verification, application auto-start configuration, background keep-alive configuration, network and connection configuration, etc.

[0107] When performing configurations that require secondary confirmation, such as permission configuration, application auto-start configuration, background keep-alive configuration, and network and connection configuration, the in-vehicle system may send a confirmation message to the user through the application interface provided by the in-vehicle system, and perform automatic configuration after receiving the user's confirmation instruction.

[0108] As a possible implementation, an option for user self-configuration may also be provided after installation. When a user self-configuration instruction is received, the application parameters of the target application are modified according to the configuration instruction input by the user.

[0109] In the second implementation, the steps for the in-vehicle system to install and configure the target application in the in-vehicle system according to the deployment information and configuration information in the storage module are as Figure 7 shown, including:

[0110] S701. Generate a first prompt message on the in-vehicle interface to prompt the user to install the target application.

[0111] S702. In response to the user's installation instruction, the in-vehicle system reads the deployment script from the access device.

[0112] S703. The in-vehicle system runs the deployment script to install the target application in the in-vehicle system.

[0113] When performing application deployment, if there are multiple deployable applications, the in-vehicle system may display the applications to be deployed in a list on the in-vehicle interface and generate a first prompt message to prompt the user to select at least one target application from the multiple deployable applications.

[0114] When there is one deployable application, the first prompt message is used to indicate the name of the deployable application and to enable the user to confirm whether to use the deployable application as the target application to be installed.

[0115] The user can generate an installation instruction by clicking the confirmation button on the in-vehicle interface. After receiving the installation instruction, the in-vehicle system can read and run the deployment script from the access device to install the target application in the in-vehicle system.

[0116] S704. Generate a second prompt message on the in-vehicle interface to prompt the user to configure the target application.

[0117] S705. In response to the user's configuration instruction, the access device adjusts the application parameters of the target application according to the configuration information.

[0118] Among them, the second prompt message is used to instruct the user to configure the application by themselves or perform automatic configuration of the application based on the configuration information.

[0119] If the user chooses to configure the application by themselves, the configuration instruction includes the configuration information input or selected by the user, and the in-vehicle system can adjust the application parameters based on the configuration information input by the user.

[0120] If the configuration instruction instructs the user to select automatic configuration of the application, the access device can adjust the application parameters of the target application already deployed in the in-vehicle system according to the configuration information.

[0121] After the application deployment and configuration are completed, the steps for the above intelligent terminal to interact with the in-vehicle system via the upper communication module and the lower communication module of the access device and the target application include:

[0122] The access device obtains data from the intelligent terminal through the lower communication module and sends the data to the in-vehicle system through the upper communication module.

[0123] The intelligent terminal can upload its own data to the in-vehicle system. Taking the safety seat as an example, it can upload the sensor data of the safety seat to the in-vehicle system, so that the in-vehicle system can determine the attitude information and occupant status information of the safety seat based on the sensor data and adjust the safety seat.

[0124] The intelligent terminal can upload the data to the lower communication module of the access device. Since the communication method and communication protocol of the intelligent terminal have been pre-deployed in the storage module, the lower communication module can communicate with the intelligent terminal and receive the data of the intelligent terminal.

[0125] Since the access device can communicate with the in-vehicle system through the upper communication module, the access device can send the data to the in-vehicle system through the upper communication module.

[0126] In another implementation scenario, the steps for the intelligent terminal to interact with the in-vehicle system via the upper communication module and the lower communication module of the access device and the target application include:

[0127] The access device receives the request information sent by the intelligent terminal through the lower communication module and sends the request information to the in-vehicle system through the upper communication module.

[0128] In a possible implementation scenario, the intelligent terminal may need to send a request information to the in-vehicle system. Continuing with the example of the safety seat, when the seat belt of the safety seat is not fastened or the safety seat needs to perform automatic seat adjustment, a request information can be sent to the in-vehicle system through the access device. After receiving the request information, the access device can send the request information to the in-vehicle system through the upper communication module.

[0129] The following is an explanation of the interaction between the above intelligent terminal, the upper communication module and the lower communication module of the access device, and the target application with the vehicle-mounted system, as Figure 8 shown, the above step S303 includes:

[0130] S801. After the user issues a target instruction through the application deployed on the vehicle-mounted system, the access device receives the target instruction through the upper communication module.

[0131] In this embodiment, the user can issue an instruction on the application interface of the vehicle-mounted system to control the intelligent terminal to make adjustments or obtain data that needs to be viewed from the intelligent terminal. Among them, the target instruction can be an adjustment instruction for the intelligent terminal or a data viewing instruction for the intelligent terminal.

[0132] S802. The access device determines the target communication protocol of the target application based on the identifier of the target application, and sends the target instruction to the intelligent terminal through the target communication protocol in the lower communication module.

[0133] Optionally, if the access device includes multiple applications, the target instruction may include an application identifier, and the communication protocols of each application in the storage module also include the identifier of the application. After the access device receives the target instruction through the upper communication module, it can identify the application identifier in the target instruction and determine the corresponding target communication protocol of the identifier.

[0134] The access device can convert the target instruction into the format of the target communication protocol and send the converted target instruction to the intelligent terminal. After the intelligent terminal responds to the target instruction and sends a response message, the lower communication module in the access device can convert the response message into a protocol format recognizable by the vehicle-mounted system and send it to the vehicle-mounted system through the upper communication module.

[0135] Next, in combination with Figure 9 , the overall process of the intelligent terminal access method in this application will be described.

[0136] After the user inserts the access device into the preset interface of the vehicle-mounted system, the vehicle-mounted system or the access device can judge whether the application has been deployed. If the application has been deployed, the application is started and the upper communication and the lower communication are established.

[0137] If the application has not been deployed, manual or automatic deployment and configuration of the application are performed based on the deployment information and configuration information in the access device, and the upper communication and the lower communication are established after the configuration is completed.

[0138] In different interaction scenarios, the vehicle-mounted system and the intelligent terminal can communicate and interact through the upper communication module and the lower communication module in the access device.

[0139] Based on the same inventive concept, an access device is further provided in an embodiment of the present application.
