[0075] In order to better understand the technical solutions of this specification, the embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0076] It should be clear that the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this specification, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this specification, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of this specification.

[0077] The terms used in the examples of this application are for the purpose of describing specific embodiments only and are not intended to limit this specification. The singular forms "a," "an," "the," and "the" used in the examples of this application and the appended claims are also intended to include the plural forms unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.

[0078] The inventors of this application have discovered that current vehicle control often focuses on ensuring the safety of occupants. However, in addition to safety needs, occupants may also have emotional needs. Therefore, how to meet the emotional needs of occupants through vehicle control is a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved.

[0079] In view of this, an embodiment of the present application provides a vehicle control method, in which when the vehicle receives an emotional interaction message sent by an external terminal, at least one function in the vehicle can be controlled to start, thereby forming an emotional interaction mode. With the help of this emotional interaction mode, the external terminal user's emotions towards the vehicle driver can be more fully expressed and presented, thereby meeting the driver's emotional needs and improving the driving experience.

[0080] See Figure 1 , is a schematic diagram of the architecture of an emotional interaction system provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 1As shown, the emotional interaction system includes a terminal 10 and a vehicle 20, wherein the terminal 10 can be a terminal used by a user who has a social relationship (e.g., superior / subordinate relationship, colleague relationship, friend relationship, teacher-student relationship) or a kinship relationship (e.g., husband-wife relationship, father-son relationship, mother-son relationship) with the driver of the vehicle 20. The terminal 10 can send emotional interaction messages to the vehicle 20. The vehicle 20 includes an in-vehicle communication terminal 201 (e.g., the in-vehicle communication terminal 201 can be a telematics box in the vehicle, referred to as Tbox), an electric power steering system (EPS) 202, an in-vehicle infotainment system (IVI) 203, a heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system 204, an ambient light 205, a seat control module (SCM) 206, a fragrance 207, etc. The in-vehicle communication terminal 201 can receive emotional interaction messages from the terminal 10 and then determine a corresponding emotional interaction mode based on the emotional interaction message. This mode is a combination of at least one function in the vehicle 20 that can be used to present the emotional interaction message to the driver. This at least one function includes, but is not limited to: activating the steering wheel vibration function via the EPS 201; playing voice and video via the IVI 203; adjusting the in-vehicle temperature, humidity, and air quality via the HVAC 204; adjusting the color, brightness, and operating mode (flash / steady) of the ambient light 205; performing seat massage, ventilation, and heating functions via the SCM 206; and adjusting the fragrance type and concentration of the fragrance 207. The in-vehicle communication terminal 201 can directly or indirectly control the activation of at least one of these functions, thereby forming an emotional interaction mode. Through this emotional interaction mode, the user of the terminal 10 can more fully express and present their emotions to the driver of the vehicle 20, thereby satisfying the emotional needs of the driver of the vehicle 20 and enhancing the driving experience.

[0081] It should be noted that the unique identification code of the terminal 10, for example, the Universally Unique Identifier (UUID), can establish a many-to-one binding relationship with the unique identification code of the vehicle 20, for example, the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN), that is, multiple terminals 10 can be bound to the same vehicle 20, and only the emotional interaction messages sent by the terminal 10 that has established a binding relationship with the vehicle 20 will trigger the on-board communication terminal 201 to control the startup of at least one of the above functions; conversely, the on-board communication terminal 201 will not respond to the emotional interaction messages sent by the terminal 10 that has not established a binding relationship with the vehicle 20.

[0082] See Figure 2 , is a vehicle control method provided by an embodiment of the present application, the method comprising Figure 1 The vehicle-mounted communication terminal in the embodiment is executed, and the process of the method is described as follows:

[0083] Step 301: Receive an emotional interaction message from a terminal.

[0084] In the embodiments of the present application, emotional interaction messages include but are not limited to: blessing messages (for example, "Happy birthday to you"), missing messages (for example, "I miss you"), caring messages (for example, "Thank you for your hard work"), encouragement messages (for example, "I hope you keep up the good work"), etc., and the present application does not impose any special restrictions on this.

[0085] Step 302: Determine a corresponding emotional interaction mode according to the emotional interaction message.

[0086] In an embodiment of the present application, the vehicle-mounted communication terminal pre-stores a plurality of correspondences between emotion interaction messages and a plurality of emotion interaction modes. The correspondences between emotion interaction messages and emotion interaction modes can be one-to-one or many-to-one, and this application does not impose any particular limitation thereto. Upon receiving a current emotion interaction message, the vehicle-mounted communication terminal can determine the emotion interaction mode corresponding to the current emotion interaction message based on the aforementioned correspondences.

[0087] For example, when the current emotional interaction message is a blessing message, the emotional interaction mode can be: playing blessing voice, blessing video, playing cheerful music, turning on fragrance (for example, the fragrance can be fresh fruity), and starting the atmosphere light (for example, forming golden / red flowing ripples) through IVI; when the current emotional interaction message is a missing message, the corresponding emotional interaction mode can be: playing missing voice, missing video, showing family photos, and starting the atmosphere light (for example, forming a soft warm yellow static light) through IVI; the current emotional interaction message is a caring message When the current emotional interaction message is an incentive message, the corresponding emotional interaction mode can be: adjusting the temperature, humidity, and air quality in the car to an appropriate level through HVAC, turning on the fragrance (for example, the fragrance can be a soothing fragrance represented by lavender purple), playing caring voice and caring videos through IVI, and starting the massage function and ventilation function (or heating function) of the seat through SCM; when the current emotional interaction message is an incentive message, the corresponding emotional interaction mode can be: starting the steering wheel vibration function through EPS, playing encouraging voice and encouraging videos through IVI, and turning on the ambient light (forming a dynamic flashing encouraging color).

[0088] It should be noted that the above is only an enumeration of the emotional interaction modes corresponding to different emotional interaction messages. In actual applications, the types of functions required to be activated in the emotional interaction mode can be adjusted according to actual conditions, and this application does not impose any special restrictions on this.

[0089] In some embodiments, considering that the relationship type between the terminal user and the driver of the vehicle may be different, in an embodiment of the present application, even if the in-vehicle communication terminal receives the same type of emotional expression message, different emotional interaction patterns can be determined in combination with the different emotional relationships between the terminal user and the driver of the vehicle.

[0090] See Figure 3 , is a flow chart of a method for determining an emotional interaction pattern provided in an embodiment of the present application. The flow of the method is described as follows:

[0091] Step 401: Determine the corresponding emotional relationship type based on the emotional title, where the emotional relationship type is the type of emotional relationship between the driver of the vehicle and the user of the terminal.

[0092] Step 402: Determine a corresponding emotional interaction mode according to the emotional relationship type and the emotional interaction content.

[0093] In an embodiment of the present application, emotional interaction messages include emotional titles and emotional interaction content. The emotional relationship type between the terminal user and the driver in the vehicle can be determined through the emotional title, and then the emotional interaction pattern is determined based on the emotional relationship type and the emotional interaction content, so that the formed emotional interaction pattern is more in line with the emotional relationship between the terminal user and the driver in the vehicle.

[0094] For example, an emotional interaction message is "Husband, thank you for your hard work", where "husband" is an emotional title and "thank you for your hard work" is emotional interaction content. Then, the emotional title "husband" can be used to determine that the emotional relationship type between the terminal user and the driver in the vehicle is "husband-wife relationship". On this basis, the corresponding emotional interaction pattern can be determined by combining the emotional relationship type "husband-wife relationship" and the emotional interaction content "thank you for your hard work".

[0095] As a possible implementation method, since "Husband, you have worked hard" is a caring message, the emotional interaction mode corresponding to the caring message can be used as a benchmark. On this basis, the above benchmark can be appropriately adjusted in combination with the emotional relationship type "husband-wife relationship" to obtain an adjusted emotional interaction mode. The adjusted emotional interaction mode can be: adjusting the temperature, humidity, and air quality in the car to a suitable level through HVAC, turning on the fragrance (for example, the fragrance can be a soothing fragrance represented by lavender purple), playing caring voice through IVI (the caring voice here can be replaced from a general caring voice to a caring voice that simulates the wife's voice), caring video (the caring video here can be replaced from a general caring video to a caring video recorded by the wife herself), and starting the massage function and ventilation function (or heating function) of the seat through SCM. Based on the above-mentioned adjusted emotional interaction mode, the end user "wife" can better present the care of the vehicle driver "husband", thereby being closer to the emotional needs of the driver "husband".

[0096] It should be noted that when the emotional interaction messages are of other types, such as missing messages, encouragement messages or blessing messages, they are also based on the corresponding emotional interaction patterns and adjusted in combination with the specific emotional relationship types. They will not be elaborated here.

[0097] In some embodiments, considering that the driver in the vehicle has specific emotions when receiving the emotional interaction message sent from the terminal user, the emotional interaction mode can also be determined in combination with the driver's own specific emotions in the embodiments of the present application.

[0098] See Figure 4 , is a flow chart of another method for determining an emotional interaction pattern provided in an embodiment of the present application. The flow of this method is described as follows:

[0099] Step 501: Determine the corresponding emotional relationship type according to the emotional title, where the emotional relationship type is the type of emotional relationship between the driver of the vehicle and the user of the terminal.

[0100] In the embodiment of the present application, emotional interaction messages include emotional titles and emotional interaction content. For how to determine the type of emotional relationship between the vehicle driver and the end user through emotional titles, please refer to the content recorded above and will not be repeated here.

[0101] Step 502: Identify the current emotion of the driver of the vehicle.

[0102] In an embodiment of the present application, the driver's current emotion can be identified by collecting the driver's heart rate data, body impedance data, and facial expression data. Of course, the driver's current emotion can also be determined by other means, and this application does not impose any special restrictions on this.

[0103] For example, the driver's current emotion may be happiness, sadness, anger, anxiety, etc. This application does not impose any particular restrictions on the types of emotions that can be identified.

[0104] Step 503: Determine a corresponding emotional interaction mode according to the emotional relationship type, emotional interaction content, and current emotion.

[0105] In an embodiment of the present application, after determining the type of emotional relationship between the user of the terminal and the driver in the vehicle and the current emotional state of the driver in the vehicle, the corresponding emotional interaction pattern can be jointly determined in combination with the emotional interaction content sent by the user of the terminal to the driver in the vehicle, so that the formed emotional interaction pattern is more in line with the emotional relationship between the user of the terminal and the driver in the vehicle, and is also closer to the driver's current emotion.

[0106] Taking the emotional interaction message "Husband, thank you for your hard work" as an example, since "Husband, thank you for your hard work" is a caring message, the emotional interaction pattern corresponding to the caring message can be used as a baseline. Based on this, the baseline can be appropriately adjusted based on the emotional relationship type "couple relationship" and the driver's current emotion "anxiety", thereby obtaining an adjusted emotional interaction pattern. The adjusted emotional interaction pattern can include: adjusting the vehicle's temperature, humidity, and air quality to appropriate levels through HVAC; activating a fragrance (for example, a calming fragrance such as lavender); playing a caring voice message through the IVI (here, the caring voice message can be adjusted from a generic caring voice message to a caring voice message that simulates the wife's voice and is played in a humorous and playful manner); playing a caring video message (here, the caring video can be adjusted from a generic caring video message to a caring video recorded by the wife and played in a humorous and playful manner); and activating the seat massage function (focusing on acupuncture points that help relieve anxiety) and the ventilation function (or heating function) through the SCM. Based on the above-mentioned adjusted emotional interaction model, it can better show the end user "wife"'s care for the vehicle driver "husband" and better alleviate the driver "husband"'s anxiety.

[0107] It should be noted that when the emotional interaction message is of other types, such as missing messages, encouragement messages or blessing messages, the corresponding emotional interaction pattern is also used as a benchmark, and adjustments are made in combination with the specific emotional relationship type and the driver's current mood. I will not go into details here.

[0108] In some embodiments, considering that the external environment is also changeable when the driver is driving the vehicle, the emotional interaction mode can also be determined in combination with the external environment in the embodiments of the present application.

[0109] See Figure 5 , is a flow chart of another method for determining an emotional interaction pattern provided in an embodiment of the present application. The flow of this method is described as follows:

[0110] Step 601: Determine the corresponding emotional relationship type based on the emotional title, where the emotional relationship type is the type of emotional relationship between the driver of the vehicle and the user of the terminal.

[0111] In the embodiment of the present application, emotional interaction messages include emotional titles and emotional interaction content. For how to determine the type of emotional relationship between the vehicle driver and the end user through emotional titles, please refer to the content recorded above and will not be repeated here.

[0112] Step 602: Identify the current emotion of the driver of the vehicle.

[0113] In the embodiment of the present application, the method for identifying the current emotion and the type of the current emotion can be found in the above description and will not be repeated here.

[0114] Step 603: Acquire external environment parameters.

[0115] In the embodiment of the present application, the external environment parameters include external traffic status and external weather type. Among them, the external traffic status includes: smooth, congested, paralyzed, etc.; the external weather type includes: sunny, rainy, foggy, snowy, etc.

[0116] Step 604: Determine a corresponding emotional interaction mode according to the emotional relationship type, emotional interaction content, current emotion, and external environmental parameters.

[0117] In an embodiment of the present application, after respectively determining the type of emotional relationship between the user of the terminal and the driver in the vehicle, the current emotional state of the driver in the vehicle, and the external environmental parameters, the emotional interaction pattern can be jointly determined in combination with the emotional interaction content sent by the user of the terminal to the driver in the vehicle, so that the emotional interaction pattern formed is more in line with the emotional relationship between the user of the terminal and the driver in the vehicle, is closer to the driver's current emotions, and is also more conducive to adapting to the external environment.

[0118] Taking the emotional interaction message "Husband, thank you for your hard work" as an example, since "Husband, thank you for your hard work" is a caring message, the emotional interaction pattern corresponding to the caring message can be used as a benchmark. On this basis, combined with the emotional relationship type "husband-wife relationship", the driver's current emotion "anxiety", and the current external environment parameters: traffic status "congestion" and weather type "rainy day", the above benchmark can be appropriately adjusted to obtain the adjusted emotional interaction pattern. The adjusted emotional interaction mode can be: adjusting the temperature, humidity, and air quality in the car to appropriate levels through HVAC, turning on the fragrance (for example, the fragrance can be a soothing fragrance represented by lavender purple), playing caring voice through IVI (the caring voice here can be adjusted from a general caring voice to a caring voice simulating the wife's voice, and the caring voice is played in a humorous and funny way, while the simulated wife's voice intermittently inserts "traffic congestion, rainy days are slippery, husband, you have to be careful and drive slowly"), caring videos (the caring video here can be adjusted from a general caring video to a caring video recorded by the wife herself, and the caring video is played in a humorous and funny way), activating the seat massage function (focusing on massaging acupuncture points that are helpful in relieving anxiety), ventilation function (or heating function) through SCM. Based on the above-mentioned adjusted emotional interaction mode, it can better show the end user "wife"'s care for the hard work and driving safety of the vehicle driver "husband", and better alleviate the driver "husband"'s anxiety.

[0119] Step 303: Control at least one function in the vehicle to start up to form an emotional interaction mode.

[0120] In an embodiment of the present application, an emotional interaction mode can be formed by controlling the activation of at least one of the above functions in the vehicle. With the help of this emotional interaction mode, the emotions of the external terminal user towards the driver of the vehicle can be more fully expressed and presented, thereby meeting the driver's emotional needs and improving the driving experience.

[0121] It should be noted that when there are at least two functions that need to be activated in the emotional interaction mode, these at least two functions can be controlled to be activated at the same time, or they can be controlled to be activated in sequence. This application does not impose any special restrictions on this.

[0122] In some embodiments, considering that forming an emotional interaction mode in a vehicle may distract the driver, in embodiments of the present application, how to form the emotional interaction mode can be determined based on the actual driving state of the vehicle.

[0123] See Figure 6 , is a flow chart of a method for forming an emotional interaction pattern provided in an embodiment of the present application. The flow of the method is described as follows:

[0124] Step 701: Obtain the real-time status of the vehicle.

[0125] Step 702: In response to the real-time state of the vehicle being a stationary state, controlling at least one function in the vehicle to start.

[0126] In the embodiment of the present application, the vehicle-mounted communication terminal can first obtain the real-time status of the vehicle. If it is determined that the vehicle is stationary, it can activate at least one function in the vehicle to form an emotional interaction mode, thereby satisfying the driver's emotional needs while avoiding safety accidents caused by driver distraction.

[0127] Step 703: In response to the real-time status of the vehicle being a driving state, and there are at least two functions that need to be activated in the emotional interaction mode, it is determined whether there is a preset disabled function among the at least two functions. The preset disabled function is a function that is prohibited from being turned on when the vehicle is in a driving state.

[0128] Step 704: In response to the presence of a preset disabled function among the at least two functions, control the activation of other functions among the at least two functions except the preset disabled function.

[0129] In an embodiment of the present application, if it is determined that the vehicle is in a driving state, and at least two functions need to be activated to form an emotional interaction mode, it can be determined whether there is a preset disabled function in the at least two functions when the vehicle is in a driving state. The preset disabled function here can be considered as a function that may affect driving safety and is prohibited from being turned on during the driver's driving process. For example, the preset disabled function can be a function such as playing a video, vibrating the steering wheel, etc., and this application does not impose any special restrictions on this. If it exists, then the other functions except the above-mentioned preset disabled functions in at least two functions are controlled to be activated to form a partial emotional interaction mode, thereby satisfying the driver's emotional needs to a certain extent while avoiding safety accidents caused by driver distraction.

[0130] Step 705: In response to the real-time state of the vehicle being a driving state, it is determined whether there is a preset disabled function in at least one function, where the preset disabled function is a function that is prohibited from being turned on when the vehicle is in a driving state.

[0131] Step 706: In response to at least one function being a preset disabled function, a delayed execution message is sent to the terminal, where the delayed execution message is used to indicate that the emotional interaction mode corresponding to the emotional interaction message is delayed in forming.

[0132] In an embodiment of the present application, when it is determined that the vehicle is in a driving state, it can be determined whether there is a preset disabled function in the at least one function under the vehicle driving state. The preset disabled function here can be considered as a function that may affect driving safety and is prohibited from being turned on during the driver's driving process. For example, the preset disabled function can be a function such as playing a video, vibrating the steering wheel, etc., and this application does not impose any special restrictions on this. If at least one of the above functions is a preset disabled function, the terminal user is informed that the emotional interaction mode corresponding to the emotional interaction message is delayed, so as to avoid the disappointment caused by the terminal user thinking that the driver has seen the presented emotional interaction mode but has not provided feedback.
