[0030] In related technologies, the anti-fog function is mainly achieved by improving the hardware. However, this method is costly and its performance degrades over a long period of time, making it difficult to achieve a high cost-performance ratio for the anti-fog function.

[0031] To address this issue, this invention proposes an anti-fog control method, storage medium, program product, electronic device, and vehicle. In this solution, after the vehicle is powered on, a dataset of fogging-related parameters is acquired. These parameters include at least: windshield temperature, windshield humidity, ambient temperature, and sunlight intensity. A target fogging probability is predicted based on the dataset of fogging-related parameters. The air conditioning system is then controlled to perform corresponding operations based on the target fogging probability. Thus, this solution can acquire fogging-related parameters to predict the target fogging probability, thereby controlling the air conditioning system to perform corresponding operations based on the target fogging probability. This software-based control method improves accuracy and reliability while enhancing the user's intelligent experience and improving passenger cabin comfort, without requiring additional or upgraded vehicle hardware. This solves the problems of high cost and performance degradation over long periods associated with related technologies.

[0032] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the embodiments.

[0033] like Figure 1 The diagram shown is a flowchart of an anti-fog control method provided in an embodiment of the present invention. The method includes:

[0034] 101. After the vehicle is powered on, obtain a dataset of fogging-related parameters.

[0035] The fogging-related parameters include at least: windshield temperature, windshield humidity, ambient temperature, and solar radiation intensity.

[0036] Specifically, embodiments of the present invention can collect relevant parameters of the windshield through a four-in-one sensor, including glass temperature, glass humidity, sunlight intensity, rainfall, and ambient temperature information detected by in-vehicle and out-of-vehicle temperature sensors. The co-simulation provides glass temperature point data for various combinations of ambient temperature, sunlight intensity, vehicle speed, and airflow mode / speed, and extracts the lowest temperature value of each glass temperature zone and the equivalent temperature value from the four-in-one sensor.

[0037] The embodiments of the present invention fully consider the heat exchange of the windshield of the passenger cabin flow field simulator under multiple scenarios by collecting relevant parameters from sensors and relevant parameters inside the passenger cabin. It can accurately identify the glass temperature distribution and predict the probability of fogging based on the change of dew point temperature to perform corresponding operations, thereby reducing the system's defogging energy consumption and improving anti-fogging efficiency.

[0038] 102. Predict the probability of fog formation on a target based on a dataset of fog-related parameters.

[0039] For example, step 102 above specifically includes the following:

[0040] 102a. Determine the basic fogging probability based on the dataset of fogging-related parameters.

[0041] For example, step 102a above specifically includes the following:

[0042] 102a1. Calculate the current dew point temperature difference based on the dataset of fogging-related parameters.

[0043] For example, step 102a1 above specifically includes the following:

[0044] 102a11. Perform linear regression fitting on fogging-related parameters to calculate the minimum glass temperature and calculate the dew point temperature based on the windshield temperature and windshield humidity in the fogging-related parameters.

[0045] Specifically, based on the fogging-related parameter dataset obtained above, the minimum glass temperature and the temperature from the four-in-one sensor are extracted. After data normalization, multiple linear regression analysis is performed. The correlation between variables is determined based on the coefficients and t-values ​​of the regression model, and signals with low correlation are removed. The statistical confidence level of each variable is determined based on the p-value of the regression model, and data with low confidence are removed. The prediction accuracy of the fitted parameters is determined based on the coefficient of determination (R-squared), and the fitting algorithm is modified to ensure that the R-squared remains above 0.85. For detailed procedures, please refer to [reference needed]. Figure 2 The content shown is used to determine the linear regression fitting formula through a fitting algorithm.

[0046] Furthermore, in step 102a11 above, the minimum windshield temperature is calculated by performing linear regression fitting on the fogging-related parameters. Specifically, this includes: substituting the fogging-related parameters into the linear regression fitting formula to obtain the minimum windshield temperature; the linear regression fitting formula is: MIN=a*x1+b*x2+c*x3+d*x5+e*x6+f*x7+G, where a, b, c, d, e, and f are correction coefficients for the fogging-related parameters, x1, x2, x3, x4, x5, x6, and x7 are the fogging-related parameters, x1 is the ambient temperature, x2 is the vehicle speed, x3 is the blower voltage, x4 is the defrosting ratio, x5 is the glass temperature, x6 is the solar radiation intensity, and x7 is the wind temperature. G is a constant, and MIN is the minimum windshield temperature.

[0047] Furthermore, in step 102a11 above, the dew point temperature is calculated based on the windshield temperature and windshield humidity among the fogging-related parameters, specifically including the following:

[0048] Substituting the windshield temperature and windshield humidity from the fogging-related parameters into the calculation formula, we obtain the dew point temperature. The calculation formula is as follows: .in, T is the filtered windshield temperature, RH is the filtered windshield humidity, and a and b are constants.

[0049] 102a12. Calculate the current dew point temperature difference based on the lowest glass temperature and the dew point temperature.

[0050] For example, substituting the minimum glass temperature and dew point temperature mentioned above into the calculation formula yields the current dew point temperature difference, as shown in the following formula: ,in, This is the lowest temperature for glass. This is the current dew point temperature difference. This is the dew point temperature.

[0051] 102a2. Determine the basic fogging probability based on the current dew point temperature difference.

[0052] For example, step 102a2 above specifically includes the following: determining the basic fogging probability based on the current dew point temperature difference and the mapping relationship between the dew point temperature difference and the fogging probability.

[0053] Optionally, the mapping relationship between the dew point temperature difference and the probability of fogging described above can be represented by a linear table. For example, the content of the linear table is as follows:

[0054] Dew point temperature difference -1 0 2 4 6 10 Baseline probability of fogging (%) 100 95 80 50 20 0

[0055] In this table, the endpoint values ​​represent upper and lower limits. For example, a dew point temperature difference less than -1°C corresponds to a basic fogging probability of 100%, and a dew point temperature difference greater than 10°C corresponds to a basic fogging probability of 0°C. Specifically, in algorithm or model calculations, the two axis endpoints (dew point temperature difference values) can be set as A0 and A1, and the value endpoints (basic fogging probabilities) as B0 and B1. If the input value (current dew point temperature difference value) is C, and C is between A0 and A1, then the lookup value is D = B0 + [(C-A0)*(B1-B0)] / (A1-A0), where D is the basic fogging probability corresponding to the current dew point temperature difference. For example, if the current dew point temperature difference C is -0.5, then A0=-1, A1=0, B0=100, B1=95. Then, by looking up the table above, the basic probability of fogging is D=100+[(-0.5+1)(95-100)] / (0+1)=97.5.

[0056] 102b. The target fogging probability is obtained by correcting the basic fogging probability based on the scene information.

[0057] The aforementioned scenario information includes at least one or more of the following: the number of people in the vehicle, weather conditions, and altitude information.

[0058] For example, step 102b above specifically includes the following:

[0059] 102b1. When the number of people in the vehicle is a first preset value, the target fogging probability is the base probability plus a first threshold; and / or,

[0060] 102b2. When the weather condition is the target weather, the target fog probability is the base probability plus a second threshold; the target weather includes, but is not limited to: rainy weather, foggy weather, and snowy weather; and / or,

[0061] 102b3. When the altitude is the second set value, the probability of fogging of the target is the base probability plus a third threshold.

[0062] Furthermore, step 102b can include any one of steps 102b1-102b3, or it can include two of steps 102b1-102b3, or it can include three of steps 102b1-102b3.

[0063] Specifically, the system uses in-vehicle and external sensors to deduce fogging event scenarios that affect the probability of fogging. For example, it uses rain sensor values ​​and wiper speed to determine rainy scenarios; fog light status and weather forecasts to determine foggy scenarios; seat sensor status to determine the number of people in the vehicle; and altitude to determine high-altitude scenarios. The base fogging probability is then adjusted based on these scenarios. For example, the fogging probability increases by 10% when the number of people increases by 4; and the fogging probability increases by 5% for every 1000m increase in altitude.

[0064] By combining user scenarios, the embodiments of the present invention can achieve seamless intervention in a more intelligent and user-friendly way, which greatly improves the comfort and noise of the passenger cabin.

[0065] 103. Control the air conditioning system to perform corresponding operations based on the target fogging probability.

[0066] For example, the above method further includes: 104. Obtaining the operating status of the air conditioning system, wherein step 103 specifically includes the following:

[0067] 103a. When the target fogging probability is less than or equal to the fourth threshold and the air conditioning system is in operation, adjust the air conditioning system's recirculation damper ratio, evaporation temperature, and passenger cabin operating mode; and / or, 103b. When the target fogging probability is greater than or equal to the fifth threshold and less than the sixth threshold, and the air conditioning system is in non-operational state, control the air conditioning system to be in anti-fog mode.

[0068] This invention utilizes existing systems and hardware, without requiring additional hardware devices, and solves the problems of low anti-fog recognition rate and low reliability through software algorithms and control.

[0069] Further optionally, after step 103 above, the method further includes: 103c, when the target fogging probability is less than the seventh threshold, controlling the air conditioning system to exit the anti-fog mode or controlling the air conditioning system to maintain the automatic mode.

[0070] The embodiments of the present invention achieve anti-fogging by determining that the probability of fogging of the target meets a certain threshold and by controlling the air conditioning system according to the different states of the air conditioner, which can improve the user experience.

[0071] Further optionally, the above method also includes: when the air conditioning system is in anti-fog mode, the vehicle interface displays an anti-fog mode mark; or, when the air conditioning system exits anti-fog mode, the vehicle interface displays an anti-fog mode exit mark.

[0072] This invention, by displaying mode markers on the vehicle's infotainment interface, can promptly inform users of the current operating status or mode of the air conditioning system, thereby further enhancing the user experience.

[0073] Further optionally, the above method also includes: 104. Continuously monitoring the changing trend of fogging on the target, and when the probability of fogging on the target continues to rise, controlling the air conditioning system to perform corresponding operations.

[0074] For example, when the probability of fogging of the target continues to rise, the target temperature of the evaporator is dynamically adjusted, the target air outlet temperature is dynamically adjusted, the air volume is dynamically adjusted, the air outlet mode is dynamically adjusted, and the circulation ratio is dynamically adjusted.

[0075] This invention, through continuous monitoring of the target fogging trend, controls the air conditioning system to dynamically adjust relevant actuators, thereby preventing glass fogging and meeting user needs.

[0076] For details, please refer to Figure 3Based on the changing trend of fogging probability, when the target fogging probability T is less than or equal to the fourth threshold (e.g., T≤50%), when the air conditioner is working, the system dynamically adjusts relevant actuators according to operating conditions. Specifically, to achieve optimal economy and user experience, priority is given to controlling the recirculation damper ratio, evaporation temperature, and passenger compartment operating mode, followed by controlling airflow, air temperature, and air outlet mode. The air conditioner UI displays the anti-fog mode. When the fogging probability in the passenger compartment decreases to a safe zone T less than the seventh threshold (e.g., T<20%), actuator control is discontinued, and the UI displays "anti-fog mode exited," with continuous dynamic monitoring. When the target fogging probability is greater than or equal to the fifth threshold but less than the sixth threshold (e.g., 75%≤T<85%), and the air conditioner is not turned on, the multimedia PAD pop-up / voice prompts the driver to switch the air conditioner to intelligent anti-fog mode, and the system dynamically adjusts relevant actuators according to operating conditions. When the probability of fogging in the passenger cabin decreases to a safe zone T that is less than the seventh threshold (e.g., T<20), actuator control is disengaged, and the air conditioning maintains automatic mode and continuously monitors the system.

[0077] The human-computer interaction system also features a master switch, and reminds the user only once during the power-on cycle, allowing for user-defined settings. Simultaneously, to minimize energy consumption, the air conditioning system's execution end is configured with optimal control priorities based on driving scenarios (priority decisions depend on the most efficient control mode currently available), ensuring both comfort and anti-fog functionality while minimizing energy consumption.

[0078] The embodiments of this invention can accurately obtain the temperature values ​​of various areas of the glass, significantly improving the accuracy of dew point temperature calculation and control accuracy; it can generally improve the anti-fogging efficiency in both complex and ordinary scenarios; it can improve anti-fogging efficiency and reduce energy consumption; it can enhance the comfort and intelligent experience of the passenger cabin; it can avoid the shortcomings of traditional defogging methods, such as poor comfort and high wind noise; it has the advantage of not increasing costs, and has strong anti-interference capabilities, with scalability and extensibility; it can prevent problems in advance and improve the air conditioning response speed; it can achieve the effects of precise control, rapid response, and early prevention.
