Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of vehicle control technology, and in particular to an instrument display control method and a vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] In the automotive field, many vehicles support multiple instrument display modes, including but not limited to ambient mode, map mode, off-road mode, racing mode, and infrared mode for low-visibility scenarios. Among them, ambient mode, also known as the world-recreating mode, integrates perception data to render lanes, surrounding vehicles, and pedestrians in real time, and overlays a red halo on targets during emergency warnings. It is the core interface for assisted driving safety interaction.

[0003] In related technologies, when the instrument panel displays infrared images, the user cannot obtain assisted driving information, which affects the overall judgment of the situation around the vehicle and reduces driving safety. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This application provides an instrument display control method and a vehicle to solve the problem in related technologies where, when the instrument displays an infrared image, the user cannot obtain assisted driving information, thereby affecting the overall judgment of the vehicle's surroundings and reducing driving safety.

[0005] In a first aspect, embodiments of this application provide an instrument display control method, including: When infrared mode is enabled, determine the triggering method for infrared mode; If the triggering method is based on system policy, then environmental confidence verification is performed according to the vehicle's environment and the duration of the environment. If the environmental confidence verification fails, the display mode of the instrument will be controlled based on the first preset linkage mode. The first preset linkage mode includes switching the instrument display mode from infrared mode to a preset environmental mode when the driver assistance function is activated.

[0006] Based on the above technical content, in this embodiment of the application, when determining the triggering method for activating the infrared mode as a system strategy-based triggering method, an environmental confidence verification is performed based on the vehicle's environment and the duration of the environment to determine whether the vehicle is currently in a high-risk environment. If the environmental confidence verification fails, it indicates that the vehicle is not currently in a high-risk environment. In this case, the display mode of the instrument panel can be controlled based on the first preset linkage mode. When the assisted driving function is activated, the display mode of the instrument panel is switched from infrared mode to the preset environmental mode. This effectively avoids the inability to switch from infrared mode to environmental mode when assisted driving is activated due to the system mistakenly triggering the infrared mode, allowing the user to obtain assisted driving information in a timely manner, thereby making a more accurate judgment of the vehicle's surrounding environment and improving driving safety.

[0007] In one possible implementation, environmental confidence verification is performed based on the vehicle's environment and the duration of that environment, including: Obtain environmental data of the vehicle's surroundings and verify the data based on preset environmental data thresholds; If the environmental data verification passes, then determine whether the environmental maintenance time has reached the preset duration threshold; if the environmental maintenance time has reached the preset duration threshold, then the environmental confidence verification is confirmed to have passed. Otherwise, the environmental confidence verification is deemed unsuccessful.

[0008] In this embodiment, environmental data verification determines whether the current environment is high-risk. After successful environmental data verification, the environmental duration is further assessed. Once the environmental duration reaches a preset threshold, the environmental confidence verification is considered successful, eliminating transient interference and thus improving the stability of the instrument display mode. Simultaneously, the dual verification of environmental data and environmental duration effectively prevents the inability to switch from infrared mode to environmental mode when the assisted driving function is activated due to accidental triggering of the infrared mode, ensuring the reliability of the environmental mode.

[0009] In one possible implementation, the environmental data includes visual visibility, ambient light intensity, regional reflectance data, and the vehicle's location and corresponding weather information; the preset environmental data thresholds include a preset visibility threshold, a preset intensity threshold, and a preset normal reflectance threshold range. Based on preset environmental data thresholds, environmental data is validated, including: The system compares visual visibility with a preset visibility threshold, ambient light intensity with a preset intensity threshold, regional reflectance data with a preset normal reflectance threshold range, and determines whether the vehicle's location belongs to a preset risk area and whether the weather information corresponding to the location belongs to a preset risk weather. If at least two of the following conditions are met: visual visibility is less than a preset visibility threshold, ambient light intensity is less than a preset intensity threshold, regional reflectance data is higher than a preset normal reflectance threshold, and the vehicle's location is within a preset risk area and the corresponding weather information is within a preset risk weather, then the environmental data verification is deemed successful. Otherwise, the environmental data verification has failed.

[0010] Here, environmental data is verified through multiple dimensions such as visual visibility, ambient light intensity, regional reflectance data, vehicle location and corresponding weather information, which effectively avoids missed judgments caused by the failure of a single indicator and improves the accuracy of environmental data verification.

[0011] In one possible implementation, the method further includes: Obtain the results of each environmental confidence verification within a preset historical time period and the mode switching operations within the first time period; Based on the results of the environmental confidence verification and the mode switching operations within the first time period, the preset environmental data thresholds are adjusted.

[0012] Specifically, based on the results of environmental confidence verification within a preset historical time period and the mode switching operations within the first time period, the preset environmental data threshold is dynamically adjusted, making the adjusted preset environmental data threshold more in line with the user's personalized needs, reducing the frequency of manual intervention by the user, and thus improving the user experience.

[0013] In one possible implementation, after performing environmental confidence verification based on the vehicle's environment and the duration of that environment, the following is also included: If the environmental confidence verification passes, the instrument display mode is controlled based on the second preset linkage mode, and a prompt is given; wherein, the second preset linkage mode includes preventing the instrument display mode from switching from infrared mode to environmental mode when the driver assistance function is activated; During the control of the instrument in the second preset linkage mode, if a first mode switching command is received, and the first mode switching command carries a first target mode, which is a display mode other than the infrared mode, then the display mode of the instrument will be switched to the first target mode; wherein, the first mode switching command is sent through the vehicle's preset human-machine interface; If the instrument's display mode returns from the first target mode to the infrared mode within the first preset time period, the instrument's display mode will be controlled again based on the second preset linkage mode.

[0014] In this embodiment, when the environmental confidence verification is passed (i.e., the vehicle is in a high-risk environment), the display mode of the control instrument is prevented from switching from infrared mode to ambient mode when the driver assistance function is activated. This allows the use of infrared mode for basic environmental perception, thereby improving vehicle safety in high-risk environments. Furthermore, during the control of the instrument in the second preset linkage mode, the user can switch to the first target mode to meet user needs. After returning from the first target mode to infrared mode, the system reverts to the second preset linkage mode to prevent the instrument display mode from switching from infrared mode to ambient mode when the driver assistance function is activated, thus improving safety.

[0015] In one possible implementation, the triggering method also includes a triggering method based on external instructions; Determine the triggering method for infrared mode, including: Obtain the operation log of the human-computer interaction interface; the operation log of the human-computer interaction interface includes the trigger source for enabling infrared mode; If the trigger source is a second mode switching command received through the vehicle's preset human-machine interface, then the triggering method for infrared mode is determined to be an external command-based triggering method; otherwise, the triggering method is determined to be a system policy-based triggering method.

[0016] Based on the above technical content, the trigger source for activating infrared mode can be traced through the operation log of the human-computer interaction interface, realizing the distinction between two triggering methods: system policy triggering and external command triggering, which is simple and efficient.

[0017] In one possible implementation, the method further includes: If the driver assistance function is enabled, the instrument panel will retrieve its original display mode before the driver assistance function was enabled. If the original display mode is non-environmental mode, the instrument panel will revert to the original display mode when the driver assistance function is disengaged or when the augmented reality head-up display takes over.

[0018] In this embodiment, when the driver assistance function is disengaged or the enhanced head-up display takes over, the control instrument automatically reverts to the original display mode, avoiding manual operation by the user and improving the user experience.

[0019] In one possible implementation, the method further includes: When the driver assistance function is activated and the instrument display mode is switched from non-environmental mode to environmental mode, the instrument display mode is controlled based on a third preset linkage mode within a second preset time period. The third preset linkage mode includes prohibiting the instrument display mode from being switched from environmental mode to non-environmental modes other than infrared mode.

[0020] Here, after the instrument switches to ambient mode, switching the display mode from ambient mode to any non-ambient mode other than infrared mode is prohibited for a second preset time period, ensuring the stability of ambient mode. Meanwhile, since infrared mode can perform basic environmental sensing in high-risk environments, switching from ambient mode to infrared mode is not prohibited, which helps ensure safety.

[0021] In one possible implementation, the method further includes: After the driver assistance function is activated, if a third mode switching command is received, and the third mode switching command carries the second target mode, the instrument display mode will be switched from the ambient mode to the second target mode; the third mode switching command is sent through the vehicle's preset human-machine interface.

[0022] Here, after the driver assistance function is activated, users can send a third mode switching command through the vehicle's preset human-machine interface to switch the environment mode to the second target mode, which meets the user's personalized mode switching needs during driver assistance and improves the system's flexibility.

[0023] Secondly, embodiments of this application provide an instrument display control device, comprising: The determination module is used to determine the triggering method of infrared mode when infrared mode is enabled; The verification module is used to perform environmental confidence verification based on the vehicle's environment and the duration of the environment if the triggering method is based on system policy. The control module is used to control the display mode of the instrument based on the first preset linkage mode if the environmental confidence verification fails. The first preset linkage mode includes switching the instrument display mode from infrared mode to a preset environmental mode when the driver assistance function is activated.

[0024] Thirdly, embodiments of this application provide a vehicle including a memory and a processor. The memory stores a computer program that can run on the processor. When the processor executes the computer program, it implements the instrument display control method as described in any of the first aspects.

[0025] Fourthly, embodiments of this application provide a computer-readable storage medium storing a computer program, which, when executed by a processor, implements the instrument display control method as described in any of the first aspects.

[0026] It is understood that the beneficial effects of the second to fourth aspects mentioned above can be found in the relevant descriptions in the first aspect mentioned above, and will not be repeated here.

Detailed Implementation

[0030] The present application will be described more clearly below with reference to specific embodiments. These embodiments will help those skilled in the art to further understand the function of the present application, but do not limit the present application in any way. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make several modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of the present application. These all fall within the protection scope of the present application.

[0031] It should be understood that, when used in this application specification and the appended claims, the term "comprising" indicates the presence of the described features, integrals, steps, operations, elements and / or components, but does not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integrals, steps, operations, elements, components and / or a collection thereof.

[0033] In the description of this application and the appended claims, the terms "first," "second," "third," etc., are used only to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0034] References to "one embodiment" or "some embodiments" as described in this specification mean that one or more embodiments of this application include a specific feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with that embodiment. Therefore, the phrases "in one embodiment," "in some embodiments," "in other embodiments," "in still other embodiments," etc., appearing in different parts of this specification do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, but rather mean "one or more, but not all, embodiments," unless otherwise specifically emphasized. The terms "comprising," "including," "having," and variations thereof mean "including but not limited to," unless otherwise specifically emphasized.

[0035] Furthermore, the term "multiple" mentioned in the embodiments of this application should be interpreted as two or more.

[0036] In the automotive field, many vehicles support multiple instrument display modes, including ambient mode, map mode, off-road mode, racing mode, and infrared mode. Ambient mode is used to present a reconstructed world view for driver assistance, including but not limited to lane markings, surrounding vehicles, and pedestrian information. Map mode provides a visual path and environmental guidance for vehicle operation. Off-road mode is adapted for monitoring vehicle status and the environment on unstructured roads. Racing mode monitors vehicle performance in high-performance driving scenarios such as highways and racetracks. Infrared mode displays a thermal image of the vehicle's surrounding environment based on infrared thermal imaging principles.

[0037] When the driver assistance function is activated and the vehicle does not have an augmented reality head-up display (SR-HUD), or the SR-HUD is not activated or does not display the content corresponding to the environmental mode, the instrument panel will automatically switch from the non-environmental mode to the environmental mode.

[0038] However, in related technologies, when the instrument panel is in infrared mode, if the driver assistance function is activated and the SR-HUD does not effectively display the content corresponding to the ambient mode, switching from infrared mode to ambient mode will be prohibited to avoid interruption of the infrared image.

[0039] However, in one implementation scenario, if the system makes a brief misjudgment and automatically activates infrared mode due to lens damage or strong glare, it will unexpectedly block the environmental mode and cause the user to lose key safety prompts. This will prevent the user from obtaining assisted driving information, thereby affecting the overall judgment of the situation around the vehicle and reducing driving safety.

[0040] Alternatively, in severe weather conditions, if a user actively activates infrared mode and still wants to obtain warning capabilities for assisted driving, such as lane change alerts and collision halos, being forcibly locked to the infrared screen will prevent the user from obtaining assisted driving information, thereby affecting the overall judgment of the situation around the vehicle and reducing driving safety.

[0041] The applicant has found that, in order to improve driving safety, it is necessary to consider a new method for controlling instrument displays.

[0042] To improve driving safety and prevent the inability to switch from infrared mode to ambient mode when assisted driving is activated due to system erroneous triggering of infrared mode, this application's implementation, when determining whether the infrared mode activation is triggered based on system strategy, performs environmental confidence verification based on the vehicle's environment and the duration of the environment to determine if the vehicle is in a high-risk environment. If the environmental confidence verification fails, the instrument display mode can be controlled based on a first preset linkage mode to switch from infrared mode to the preset ambient mode when the assisted driving function is activated. This effectively prevents the inability to switch from infrared mode to ambient mode when assisted driving is activated due to system erroneous triggering of infrared mode, allowing users to obtain assisted driving information in a timely manner and make more accurate judgments about the vehicle's surrounding environment, thereby improving driving safety.

[0043] First refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 The illustration shows an application scenario diagram provided according to an embodiment of this application. The device involved in the application scenario includes a processor, an interaction unit, an environmental data acquisition unit, and an instrument.

[0044] In one implementation scenario, the user can send a command to the processor through the interaction unit to control the display mode of the instrument, and the processor controls the display mode of the instrument based on the command.

[0045] In another implementation scenario, the environmental data acquisition unit can collect environmental data, and the processor can automatically activate the infrared mode based on the environmental data when it determines that the vehicle is in a high-risk environment to ensure driving safety.

[0046] The following is combined Figure 1 Application scenarios, refer to Figures 2-3 This application describes an instrument display control method provided according to exemplary embodiments. It should be noted that the above application scenarios are shown only to facilitate understanding of the spirit and principles of this application, and the embodiments of this application are not limited in any way. Rather, the embodiments of this application can be applied to any applicable scenario.

[0047] It should be noted that the embodiments of this application can be applied to vehicles, and the vehicle can be a server or a host computer of the vehicle, that is, the instrument display control method provided by the exemplary embodiments of this application can be executed on the server or the host computer of the vehicle.

[0048] The server can be a monolithic server or a distributed server spanning multiple computers or computer data centers. Servers can also be of various categories, such as, but not limited to, web servers, application servers, database servers, or proxy servers.

[0049] Optionally, a server may include hardware, software, or embedded logic components for performing suitable functions supported or implemented by the server, or a combination of two or more such components. For example, a server may be a blade server, a cloud server, or a server group consisting of multiple servers, which may include one or more of the above-mentioned categories of servers, etc.

[0050] It should be noted that the instrument display control method provided according to the exemplary embodiments of this application can be executed on the same device or on different devices.

[0051] refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a schematic flowchart of an instrument display control method provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 2 As shown, the method in the embodiments of this application may include: Step 201: When infrared mode is enabled, determine the triggering method of infrared mode.

[0052] Infrared mode relies on an onboard infrared thermal imaging camera to capture infrared thermal radiation signals from various objects in the vehicle's surrounding environment, and then generates a visualized thermal image based on the captured infrared thermal radiation signals. Here, because different objects such as pedestrians, vehicles, obstacles, and road surfaces have different temperatures, they will radiate infrared energy of varying intensities.

[0053] When a vehicle is in a high-risk environment where the performance of a visible light camera is limited, such as in heavy fog, rainstorms, or sandstorms, the infrared mode is not affected by the intensity of visible light. Even in high-risk environments, it can still clearly identify different objects in the environment around the vehicle and has a certain basic perception capability, which is conducive to ensuring the driving safety of the vehicle in high-risk environments.

[0054] Infrared mode can be triggered in two ways: by external commands and by system policies. External command-based triggering means the user manually activates infrared mode, which can be done via the central control screen, buttons, or voice commands. System policy-based triggering means the system automatically activates infrared mode.

[0055] Step 202: If the triggering method is based on the system policy, then environmental confidence verification is performed according to the vehicle's environment and the duration of the environment.

[0056] In one implementation scenario, if the infrared mode is triggered based on a system policy, to avoid false triggering, environmental confidence verification can be performed based on the vehicle's environment and the duration of the environment to determine whether the vehicle is currently in a high-risk environment.

[0057] In one implementation scenario, the environmental confidence verification is passed after both the vehicle's environment and the environment duration are verified. Optionally, the vehicle's environment can be verified first. If the verification passes, it can be determined that the current vehicle environment is a high-risk environment. Then, the environment duration is further determined to eliminate the influence of instantaneous interference factors, which helps to improve the stability of the instrument display mode.

[0058] Step 203: If the environmental confidence verification fails, the display mode of the instrument is controlled based on the first preset linkage mode; wherein, the first preset linkage mode includes switching the display mode of the instrument from infrared mode to preset environmental mode when the assisted driving function is activated.

[0059] Assisted driving functions include, but are not limited to, Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC), Navigation on Autopilot (NOA), and Moving Object Detection (MOD).

[0060] The failure of the environmental confidence verification indicates that the vehicle is not currently in a high-risk environment. This may be due to the system mistakenly triggering the infrared mode. Therefore, when the driver assistance function is activated, if the SR-HUD does not effectively display the content corresponding to the environmental mode, the display mode of the control instrument can be switched from infrared mode to environmental mode. This is to avoid the problem that the infrared mode cannot be switched to environmental mode when driver assistance is activated due to the system mistakenly triggering the infrared mode, and the user cannot obtain driver assistance information through the environmental mode.

[0061] In another implementation scenario, if the driver assistance function is activated, the content corresponding to the environmental mode is displayed through the SR-HUD, then there is no need to switch the instrument display mode from infrared mode to environmental mode.

[0062] In another implementation scenario, if the triggering method is based on external commands, environmental confidence verification is not required. The instrument display mode can be controlled based on the first preset linkage mode. That is, when the driver assistance function is activated, if the SR-HUD does not effectively display the content corresponding to the environmental mode, the instrument can be controlled to switch from infrared mode to environmental mode. At this time, the infrared image will be covered to meet the user's needs for driver assistance information and avoid over-protection that could reduce safety. It should be noted that after the instrument switches from infrared mode to environmental mode, the user can manually switch back to infrared mode at any time. However, after switching to infrared mode, the system will not automatically switch back to environmental mode until the user exits infrared mode or disables the driver assistance function.

[0063] In another implementation scenario, if the environmental confidence verification passes, it indicates that the vehicle is currently in a high-risk environment. Therefore, activating infrared mode for basic environmental perception is necessary. When driver assistance functions are enabled, the instrument panel can be prevented from switching from infrared mode to environmental mode to ensure driving safety.

[0064] In this embodiment, when the triggering method for activating the infrared mode is determined to be based on a system strategy, an environmental confidence verification is performed according to the vehicle's environment and the duration of the environment to determine whether the vehicle is currently in a high-risk environment. If the environmental confidence verification fails, it indicates that the vehicle is not currently in a high-risk environment. In this case, the display mode of the instrument panel can be controlled based on a first preset linkage mode. When the assisted driving function is activated, the display mode of the instrument panel is switched from infrared mode to a preset environmental mode. This effectively avoids the inability to switch from infrared mode to environmental mode when assisted driving is activated due to the system mistakenly triggering the infrared mode, allowing the user to obtain assisted driving information in a timely manner and thus make a more accurate judgment of the vehicle's surrounding environment, improving driving safety.

[0065] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the infrared mode is triggered based on a system strategy. When performing environmental confidence verification according to the vehicle's environment and the duration of the environment, it is also necessary to consider how to improve the accuracy of the environmental confidence verification. In addition, it is also necessary to consider how to control the instrument display mode when the assisted driving system disengages or is taken over by the augmented reality display system. Figure 3 This is a flowchart illustrating an instrument display control method according to another embodiment of this application, as shown below. Figure 3 As shown, the method includes: Step 301: When the infrared mode is enabled, obtain the human-machine interface operation log; the human-machine interface operation log contains the trigger source for enabling the infrared mode; if the trigger source is a second mode switching command received through the vehicle's preset human-machine interface, then the triggering method of the infrared mode is determined to be the triggering method based on external commands; otherwise, the triggering method is determined to be the triggering method based on system policies.

[0066] Among them, the triggering method based on external commands refers to the user manually turning on the infrared mode; the triggering method based on system policies refers to the system automatically turning on the infrared mode.

[0067] The vehicle's preset human-machine interaction interfaces include, but are not limited to, the central control screen interaction interface, the button interaction interface, and the voice interaction interface. Therefore, users can trigger the corresponding human-machine interaction interface and output the second mode switching command by operating the central control screen, pressing the buttons, or issuing voice commands.

[0068] The information recorded in the Human-Machine Interface (HMI) operation log will differ depending on whether the user outputs the second mode switching command through different human-machine interface (HMI) interfaces. In one implementation scenario, if the user outputs the second mode switching command through the central control screen interface, the HMI operation log may include operation records such as the touch coordinates and operation time of the user's operation on the central control screen.

[0069] In another implementation scenario, if the user outputs a second mode switching command through the button interaction interface, the human-computer interaction interface operation log may include the hardware ID of the button and the duration of the press, etc.

[0070] In another implementation scenario, if the user outputs a second mode switching command through the voice interaction interface, the human-computer interaction interface operation log may include the semantic recognition result of the voice command, the wake word, execution record, and other operation records.

[0071] In another implementation scenario, if the human-computer interaction interface operation log does not contain the operation records corresponding to the above-mentioned human-computer interaction interface, it can be determined that the triggering method for enabling infrared mode is based on the system policy triggering method.

[0072] Based on the above technical content, the trigger source for activating infrared mode can be traced through the operation log of the human-computer interaction interface, realizing the distinction between two triggering methods: system policy triggering and external command triggering, which is simple and efficient.

[0073] Step 302: If the triggering method is based on system policy, then obtain the environmental data of the vehicle's environment and verify the environmental data based on the preset environmental data threshold; if the environmental data verification passes, then determine whether the environmental maintenance time reaches the preset duration threshold; if the environmental maintenance time reaches the preset duration threshold, then determine that the environmental confidence verification passes; otherwise, determine that the environmental confidence verification fails.

[0074] In one possible implementation, the environmental data includes visual visibility, ambient light intensity, regional reflectance data, and the vehicle's location and corresponding weather information; the preset environmental data thresholds include a preset visibility threshold, a preset intensity threshold, and a preset normal reflectance threshold range; based on the preset environmental data thresholds, the environmental data is validated, including: The system compares visual visibility with a preset visibility threshold, ambient light intensity with a preset intensity threshold, regional reflectance data with a preset normal reflectance threshold range, and determines whether the vehicle's location belongs to a preset risk area and whether the weather information corresponding to the location belongs to a preset risk weather. If at least two of the following conditions are met: visual visibility is less than a preset visibility threshold, ambient light intensity is less than a preset intensity threshold, regional reflectance data is higher than a preset normal reflectance threshold, and the vehicle's location is within a preset risk area and the corresponding weather information is within a preset risk weather condition, then the environmental data verification is deemed successful; otherwise, the environmental data verification is deemed unsuccessful.

[0075] In one possible implementation, images can be captured by an onboard camera and processed using image processing algorithms such as visibility algorithms to obtain the corresponding visual visibility. If the visual visibility is less than a preset visibility threshold, it indicates that the visible distance of the vehicle's current environment is short, belonging to a low-visibility environment. For example, heavy fog, sandstorms, or heavy rain can limit the visibility of the road ahead, making it impossible to meet the normal recognition needs of the human eye or the onboard camera. In such cases, the conditions are suitable for activating infrared mode to improve environmental perception. The preset visibility threshold can be set according to actual needs, such as 50 meters.

[0076] In one possible implementation, the ambient light intensity of the vehicle's current environment can be detected using an ambient light sensor. If the ambient light intensity is less than a preset intensity threshold, it indicates that the light brightness of the vehicle's current environment is insufficient, belonging to nighttime or a dark environment. In this case, the image clarity captured by the vehicle-mounted camera will be significantly reduced, while infrared mode can achieve clear imaging based on the target's thermal radiation, making it necessary to enable infrared mode.

[0077] In one possible implementation, the area reflection data can be determined based on millimeter-wave radar. In one implementation scenario, the area reflection data can be the intensity data of the echo signal in the area ahead collected by the millimeter-wave radar. If the area reflection data is higher than the preset normal reflection threshold range, it indicates that there is an area covered by a highly reflective medium in front of the vehicle, belonging to a scattering interference environment such as dense fog or dust. The electromagnetic waves emitted by the millimeter-wave radar will undergo a large amount of diffuse reflection in such media, causing the echo signal intensity to deviate significantly from the reference range under normal road conditions. Infrared mode is not affected by such scattering media and has the adaptability to the working conditions of enabling infrared mode.

[0078] In another implementation scenario, if the area reflection data is within the preset normal reflection range or below the preset normal reflection threshold, it indicates that the environment in front of the vehicle is in good working condition with normal or low reflection, without large-scale interference from high-scattering media. The visible light perception and radar environment detection capabilities can meet the normal driving safety requirements, so there is no need to activate the infrared mode.

[0079] In one possible implementation, the vehicle's location can be determined using the Global Positioning System (GPS). The weather information corresponding to the vehicle's location can be obtained by the vehicle accessing weather service application programming interfaces (APIs) via the vehicle-to-everything (V2X) network. This weather information includes, but is not limited to, precipitation, wind speed, and snowfall.

[0080] Preset risk areas include, but are not limited to, deserts and mountainous areas, and preset risk weather includes, but is not limited to, heavy fog, heavy rain, and sandstorms. If the vehicle is located in a preset risk area and the corresponding weather information is also preset risk weather, it indicates that the vehicle is currently in a scenario where environmental perception is limited. Infrared mode can ensure the effectiveness of environmental perception by leveraging its thermal radiation recognition advantages, making it necessary to activate infrared mode in certain operating conditions.

[0081] Here, environmental data is verified through multiple dimensions such as visual visibility, ambient light intensity, regional reflectance data, vehicle location and corresponding weather information, which effectively avoids missed judgments caused by the failure of a single indicator and improves the accuracy of environmental data verification.

[0082] In some embodiments, if the environmental data verification passes, it can be further determined whether the environmental maintenance time reaches a preset duration threshold to eliminate the influence of instantaneous interference factors. The preset duration threshold can be set according to actual needs, such as 5 seconds.

[0083] In this embodiment, environmental data verification determines whether the current environment is high-risk. After successful environmental data verification, the environmental duration is further assessed. Once the environmental duration reaches a preset threshold, the environmental confidence verification is considered successful, eliminating transient interference and thus improving the stability of the instrument display mode. Simultaneously, the dual verification of environmental data and environmental duration effectively prevents the inability to switch from infrared mode to environmental mode when the driver assistance function is activated due to accidental triggering of the infrared mode, ensuring the reliability of the environmental mode.

[0084] In some embodiments, the results of each environmental confidence verification and the mode switching operations within a first time period can be obtained; and the preset environmental data threshold can be adjusted based on the results of the environmental confidence verification and the mode switching operations within the first time period.

[0085] Mode switching refers to the user's manual switching of the instrument display mode. In one implementation scenario, if, within a preset historical time period, the environmental confidence verification fails and, within the first duration after the assisted driving function is activated, the user manually switches the environmental mode to infrared mode more than a first preset threshold number of times, then the first target preset environmental data threshold corresponding to the failed environmental confidence verification will be adjusted. The first target preset environmental data threshold is at least one of the preset environmental data thresholds.

[0086] In another implementation scenario, if, within a preset historical time period, the environmental confidence verification passes and, within the first duration after the assisted driving function is activated, the number of times the user switches from infrared mode to environmental mode exceeds a second preset threshold, then the second target preset environmental data threshold corresponding to the successful environmental confidence verification will be adjusted. The second target preset environmental data threshold is at least one of the preset environmental data thresholds.

[0087] In this embodiment, the preset environmental data threshold is dynamically adjusted based on the results of environmental confidence verification within a preset historical time period and the mode switching operation within the first time period. This makes the adjusted preset environmental data threshold more in line with the user's personalized needs, reduces the frequency of manual intervention by the user, and helps to improve the user experience.

[0088] Step 303: If the environmental confidence verification fails, the display mode of the instrument is controlled based on the first preset linkage mode; wherein, the first preset linkage mode includes switching the display mode of the instrument from infrared mode to preset environmental mode when the assisted driving function is activated.

[0089] For the implementation of step 303, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 2 The relevant descriptions in the embodiments will not be repeated here.

[0090] Step 304: If the environmental confidence verification passes, the instrument display mode is controlled based on the second preset linkage mode, and a prompt is given; wherein, the second preset linkage mode includes prohibiting the instrument display mode from switching from infrared mode to environmental mode when the assisted driving function is activated.

[0091] If the environmental confidence verification passes, it indicates that the vehicle is currently in a high-risk environment. The automatic activation of the infrared mode based on the system strategy is considered valid. At the same time, the basic environmental perception of the infrared mode takes precedence over the assisted driving information provided by the environmental mode. Therefore, based on the second preset linkage mode, the display mode of the instrument can be controlled. Even when the assisted driving function is activated, if the SR-HUD does not display the content of the environmental mode, the instrument can be prevented from switching from the infrared mode to the environmental mode, and the infrared mode can be kept unchanged to ensure the continuity of the thermal imaging image and improve safety.

[0092] Step 305: During the control of the instrument in the second preset linkage mode, if a first mode switching command is received, and the first mode switching command carries a first target mode, which is a display mode other than the infrared mode, then the display mode of the instrument is switched to the first target mode; wherein, the first mode switching command is sent through the vehicle's preset human-machine interface.

[0093] Here, during the control of the instrument panel in the second preset linkage mode, the current display mode of the instrument panel is infrared mode. Users can still manually switch the display mode of the instrument panel through the vehicle's preset human-machine interface, that is, switch from infrared mode to the first target mode to meet user needs. The first target mode includes display modes other than infrared mode, such as environmental mode, map mode, off-road mode, and racing mode.

[0094] Step 306: If the instrument's display mode returns from the first target mode to the infrared mode within the first preset time period, then the instrument's display mode is controlled again based on the second preset linkage mode.

[0095] In one implementation scenario, within a first preset time period, the user can manually switch the first target mode back to infrared mode. Since the first preset time period is relatively short, the vehicle can be considered to still be in a high-risk environment at this time. Therefore, the instrument display mode can be controlled again based on the second preset linkage mode.

[0096] In another implementation scenario, if the user switches the first target mode back to infrared mode for a longer period of time than the first preset time period, the instrument will display in the first target mode for a longer period of time. Therefore, the environment in which the vehicle is located may have changed. Thus, the instrument display control method of this application can be re-executed to determine the triggering method of the infrared mode and further control the display mode of the instrument based on the triggering method of the infrared mode.

[0097] In this embodiment, when the environmental confidence verification is passed (i.e., the vehicle is in a high-risk environment), the display mode of the control instrument is prevented from switching from infrared mode to ambient mode when the driver assistance function is activated. This allows the use of infrared mode for basic environmental perception, thereby improving vehicle safety in high-risk environments. Furthermore, during the control of the instrument in the second preset linkage mode, the user can switch to the first target mode to meet user needs. After returning from the first target mode to infrared mode, the system reverts to the second preset linkage mode to prevent the instrument display mode from switching from infrared mode to ambient mode when the driver assistance function is activated, thus improving safety.

[0098] In some embodiments, if the driver assistance function is enabled, the instrument panel's original display mode before the driver assistance function is enabled is obtained; if the original display mode is a non-environmental mode, the instrument panel's display mode is the original display mode when the driver assistance function is disabled or when the augmented reality head-up display takes over.

[0099] In one implementation scenario, if the original display mode is infrared mode, and the instrument display mode is controlled based on the second preset linkage mode, it indicates that the infrared mode is automatically activated by the system and has passed environmental confidence verification. When the driver assistance function is activated, the instrument remains in infrared mode. When the driver assistance function is deactivated or the augmented reality head-up display takes over, the instrument is still controlled to maintain infrared mode.

[0100] In another implementation scenario, if the original display mode is infrared mode, and the instrument display mode is controlled based on the first preset linkage mode, it can indicate that the infrared mode was automatically activated by the system but failed the environmental confidence verification, or that the infrared mode was manually activated by the user. When the driver assistance function is activated, the instrument will switch from infrared mode to environmental mode. When the driver assistance function is deactivated or the augmented reality head-up display takes over, the instrument can be controlled to switch back from environmental mode to infrared mode.

[0101] In another implementation scenario, if the original display mode is a non-environmental mode other than infrared mode, such as map mode, off-road mode, or racing mode, the instrument panel will switch from the original display mode to the environmental mode when the driver assistance function is activated. When the driver assistance function is deactivated or the augmented reality head-up display takes over, the instrument panel can be switched back from the environmental mode to the original display mode.

[0102] In this embodiment, when the driver assistance function is disengaged or the enhanced head-up display takes over, the control instrument automatically reverts to the original display mode, avoiding manual operation by the user and improving the user experience.

[0103] In some embodiments, when the driver assistance function is activated and the instrument display mode is switched from non-environmental mode to environmental mode, the instrument display mode is controlled based on a third preset linkage mode within a second preset time period; wherein, the third preset linkage mode includes prohibiting the switching of the instrument display mode from environmental mode to non-environmental modes other than infrared mode.

[0104] Since the ambient mode is part of the driver assistance safety interface, in order to ensure the stability of the interface and prevent users from accidentally exiting the interface during driver assistance operation, after the instrument enters the ambient mode, the display mode of the instrument is controlled based on the third preset linkage mode within the second preset time period. That is, the instrument is prohibited from switching from the ambient mode to other non-ambient modes except infrared mode, and the mode switching permission is temporarily locked.

[0105] It should be noted that since the infrared mode has basic environmental perception capabilities in low visibility conditions, even if the instrument enters environmental mode, users can manually switch to infrared mode to ensure safety.

[0106] Here, after the instrument switches to ambient mode, switching the display mode from ambient mode to any non-ambient mode other than infrared mode is prohibited for a second preset time period, ensuring the stability of ambient mode. Meanwhile, since infrared mode can perform basic environmental sensing in high-risk environments, switching from ambient mode to infrared mode is not prohibited, which helps ensure safety.

[0107] In some embodiments, after the driver assistance function is activated, if a third mode switching command is received, and the third mode switching command carries the second target mode, the display mode of the instrument panel is switched from the ambient mode to the second target mode; wherein, the third mode switching command is sent through the vehicle's preset human-machine interface.

[0108] After the driver assistance function is activated, if a third mode switching command is received, since the third mode switching command is sent by the human-machine interface, that is, the user manually switches the environmental mode to the second target mode, it can be regarded as the user actively taking over the display control of the instrument. Therefore, the system will not perform automatic recovery and respects the user's current choice.

[0109] Here, after the driver assistance function is activated, users can send a third mode switching command through the vehicle's preset human-machine interface to switch the environment mode to the second target mode, which meets the user's personalized mode switching needs during driver assistance and improves the system's flexibility.

[0110] In this embodiment, when the infrared mode is activated, the triggering method of the infrared mode can be determined based on the operation log of the human-machine interface. If the triggering method is based on the system policy, environmental confidence verification is performed on the environmental data and environmental duration of the vehicle's environment. This eliminates momentary interference and effectively avoids the situation where the infrared mode cannot be switched to the environmental mode when the assisted driving function is activated due to accidental triggering of the infrared mode, thus ensuring the reliability of the environmental mode. If the environmental confidence verification fails, it indicates that the vehicle is not in a high-risk environment. Therefore, based on the first preset linkage mode, the instrument display mode can be controlled so that the instrument display mode can switch from the infrared mode to the environmental mode when the assisted driving function is activated, allowing the user to obtain assisted driving information in a timely manner. If the environmental confidence verification passes, it indicates that the vehicle is in a high-risk environment. Therefore, to ensure driving safety, the instrument display mode is controlled based on the second preset linkage mode so that the instrument display mode will not switch from the infrared mode to the environmental mode when the assisted driving function is activated, allowing the vehicle to perform basic environmental perception through the infrared mode in a high-risk environment. During the control of the instrument in the second preset linkage mode, if a first mode switching command is received via the human-machine interface, the instrument's display mode is switched to the first target mode carried by the first mode switching command to meet user needs. If the instrument's display mode returns from the first target mode to the infrared mode within the first preset time period, the instrument's display mode is controlled again based on the second preset linkage mode, eliminating the need to repeatedly determine the linkage mode corresponding to the infrared mode, thus effectively improving response efficiency.

The execution order of each process should be determined by its function and internal logic, and should not constitute any limitation on the implementation process of the embodiments of this application.

[0118] In one possible implementation, the triggering method also includes a triggering method based on external instructions; Module 401 is specifically used for: Obtain the operation log of the human-computer interaction interface; the operation log of the human-computer interaction interface includes the trigger source for enabling infrared mode; If the trigger source is a second mode switching command received through the vehicle's preset human-machine interface, then the triggering method for infrared mode is determined to be an external command-based triggering method; otherwise, the triggering method is determined to be a system policy-based triggering method.

[0119] In one possible implementation, the control module 403 is further configured to: If the driver assistance function is enabled, the instrument panel will retrieve its original display mode before the driver assistance function was enabled. If the original display mode is non-environmental mode, the instrument panel will revert to the original display mode when the driver assistance function is disengaged or when the augmented reality head-up display takes over.

[0120] In one possible implementation, the control module 403 is further configured to: When the driver assistance function is activated and the instrument display mode is switched from non-environmental mode to environmental mode, the instrument display mode is controlled based on a third preset linkage mode within a second preset time period.
