[0015] Other features, objects, and advantages of this application will become more apparent from the following detailed description of non-limiting embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings: Figure 1 A flowchart illustrating the vehicle management method based on electronic fences provided in this application embodiment; Figure 2 A structural block diagram of a vehicle management system based on electronic fences provided in an embodiment of this application; Figure 3 This is a structural block diagram of a computer device provided in an embodiment of this application. Detailed Implementation
[0016] The present application will now be described in further detail with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the application. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, only the parts relevant to the application are shown in the accompanying drawings.
[0017] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features of the embodiments in this application can be combined with each other. This application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0018] The following describes in detail, with reference to the accompanying drawings, a vehicle management method, system, and device based on electronic fences according to embodiments of this application.
[0019] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of a vehicle management method based on an electronic fence according to an embodiment of this application. Figure 1 As shown, the vehicle management method based on electronic fence according to an embodiment of this application includes the following steps: S101: Based on the vehicle management needs within the area, set up one or more electronic fences that can cover the area, wherein the electronic fence includes a fence type and vehicle management rules, and the shape of the electronic fence is arbitrary.
[0020] The shape of the electronic fence can be designed according to the vehicle management needs of the area, and can be a circle, rectangle, polygon, or a custom shape designed according to the needs of the area.
[0021] In one embodiment of this application, the vehicle management needs within the area are one or more, and the step of setting one or more electronic fences that can cover the area according to the vehicle management needs within the area includes: determining a fence type and a vehicle management rule according to each vehicle management need; and setting an electronic fence that can cover the area according to the determined fence type and the vehicle management rule.
[0022] The fence types include preset types such as loading points, unloading points, charging stations, factory areas, and operating areas, and can also be customized such as maintenance stations and temporary parking points.
[0023] Vehicle management rules include control rules and alarm rules. Control rules include speed limits, charging limits, and vehicle locking controls, such as limiting vehicle speed to 20km / h within a region, limiting charging to no more than 90%, and supporting vehicle locking for exceeding boundaries and locking after a timeout. Alarm rules include entry alarms, exit alarms, and timeout alarms, such as sending cloud push notifications and vehicle-side voice announcements when entering and leaving a region, and issuing timeout alarms when staying for more than a preset time.
[0024] S102: When a vehicle enters the area, the vehicle is controlled by the vehicle management rules covering each electronic fence of the area.
[0025] In one embodiment of this application, when a vehicle enters the area, the vehicle is controlled by vehicle management rules covering each electronic fence in the area, including: determining the on / off state of the electronic fence; if the electronic fence is in an enabled state, controlling the vehicle to execute the vehicle management rules; if the electronic fence is in a disabled state, not executing the vehicle management rules.
[0026] It also supports copying, deleting, and modifying electronic fences, and synchronizes them to associated vehicles within a preset time after the operation.
[0027] Furthermore, a single vehicle can be bound to multiple geofences, and multiple vehicles can also be bound to the same geofence through fleet grouping. When vehicle management rules for multiple geofences conflict, the higher-priority rule will be executed according to the pre-set rule priority.
[0028] When the vehicle receives the vehicle management rules from the cloud, it parses the rule instructions and sends them back to the cloud. Then, it sends control signals to the vehicle's electronic control unit via the CAN bus. For example, for speed limit control rules, it adjusts the throttle output.
[0029] Meanwhile, the central control screen displays the currently bound electronic fence and rules to be executed; voice broadcasts are generated through voice synthesis technology, such as: "Entering the unloading point, please prepare to unload" and "Overspeed warning triggered, current speed 25km / h".
[0030] S103: Receive the location information uploaded by the vehicle and the execution status of vehicle control.
[0031] In one embodiment of this application, receiving the location information uploaded by the vehicle and the execution status of vehicle control includes: dynamically adjusting the monitoring frequency according to the vehicle status; receiving the location information uploaded by the vehicle according to the monitoring frequency, and recording the vehicle's execution status of the vehicle management rules.
[0032] For example: Assume that the default monitoring frequency is 10 seconds per update to receive vehicle location information and the execution status of vehicle management rules. When the vehicle is traveling at high speed, the monitoring frequency is adjusted to 5 seconds per update; when the vehicle is stationary, the monitoring frequency is adjusted to 30 seconds per update. The vehicle location information includes the vehicle's latitude and longitude coordinates and the location time; the vehicle's execution status of vehicle management rules is such as "the factory area speed limit of 20 km / h has been executed".
[0033] In one embodiment of this application, the method further includes: automatically lifting the restrictions of the vehicle management rules when a network anomaly is detected; caching the vehicle's location information and fence trigger records during the network anomaly period; and receiving the vehicle's cached location information and fence trigger records during the network anomaly period within a predetermined time after the network is restored.
[0034] Specifically, upon detecting a network anomaly, such as three consecutive unresponsive heartbeat packets, the network disconnection logic is triggered, automatically lifting the restrictions of the vehicle management rules and restoring the vehicle to its default state, such as canceling the speed limit and unlocking the vehicle; and displaying the message "Network interrupted, fence control has been lifted" on the central control screen; then, the vehicle's location information and fence trigger records during the network anomaly are cached locally, such as "14:30 crossing the factory fence", and are retransmitted within a predetermined time after the network is restored, and the cloud updates the database after receiving the retransmitted data.
[0035] In one embodiment of this application, the method further includes: receiving an application for temporary release of vehicle management rules for the vehicle; and, upon approval of the application, temporarily releasing the vehicle management rules specified in the application.
[0036] Drivers can submit applications to temporarily lift vehicle management rules via the central control screen. The application information is uploaded to the cloud in real time. Once approved by the administrator, the vehicle management rules specified in the application are temporarily lifted. In addition, automatic approval is supported. If the application is not approved within 1 minute in an emergency, it will be automatically approved.
[0037] In one embodiment of this application, the method further includes: storing information about the electronic fence, vehicle data, and alarm data; automatically generating operation reports to analyze the operation of the electronic fence.
[0038] The electronic fence information includes fence shape, fence type, vehicle management rules, a list of bound vehicles, the person who created / modified the fence information, and the operation time; vehicle data includes vehicle location information reporting records, vehicle management rule execution records, and application records for temporarily lifting vehicle management rules; alarm data includes alarm type, trigger time, trigger location, and processing status. It supports multi-dimensional information queries based on time, vehicle, fence type, and alarm type.
[0039] In addition, it can automatically generate operation reports, such as "Top 10 vehicles with the most boundary crossing alarms this month" or "Usage frequency of each fence type", and supports visualization through bar charts, line charts or map annotations.
[0040] According to the vehicle management method based on electronic fences in this application, firstly, one or more electronic fences covering the area are set up according to the vehicle management needs within the area. Each electronic fence includes a fence type and vehicle management rules, and its shape can be arbitrary. When a vehicle enters the area, the vehicle is controlled according to the vehicle management rules of each electronic fence covering the area. Finally, the location information uploaded by the vehicle and the execution status of the vehicle control are received. Therefore, the shape and function of the electronic fences can be specifically set according to the vehicle management needs within the area, thereby controlling the vehicle, improving management accuracy, and making vehicle management more aligned with business needs.
