Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of intelligent vehicle technology, and in particular to a control method and related device. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of intelligent vehicles and intelligent connected technologies, the interaction needs between users and vehicles are increasing and becoming more diversified.

[0003] Currently, vehicle function status feedback and display mainly rely on the in-vehicle dashboard, central control screen, or remote prompts via keys or mobile applications. However, when users are outside the vehicle, such as when they need to operate vehicle functions directly from outside, the function status lacks effective visual feedback. Users cannot perceive the function status and lack an intuitive, immediate, and non-external interactive method to obtain the function status. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This application provides a control method and related apparatus that enables the state of the adjusted function to be presented in a visual manner, eliminating the need for the user to view the function's state through additional equipment. This enhances the intuitiveness of information feedback and improves the user's perception efficiency of the vehicle's state.

[0005] Firstly, this application provides a control method for adjusting adjustable functions of a vehicle and controlling the illumination of a vehicle's lighting device. This method can be applied to a vehicle, for example, executed by the vehicle itself, or executed by a module within the vehicle (such as a control device or a component within the control device), where the module may include software modules and / or hardware modules. In other words, even when the method is executed by a control device within the vehicle or a component within the control device (such as a chip or module), it can still be considered as the method being applied to the vehicle.

[0006] The control method includes: a control device acquiring first information, the first information including perceived operational information and vehicle status information. The control device adjusts the state of the vehicle's functions based on the first information and controls the vehicle's lighting devices to emit light in a target mode. The lighting device includes at least one of a vehicle logo, headlights, or a display device, and the target mode is associated with the adjusted vehicle function. Optionally, the target mode includes at least one of the following: the luminous area of ​​the lighting device, the number displayed by the lighting device, the luminous color of the lighting device, the luminous duration of the lighting device, and the flashing frequency of the lighting device.

[0007] In the above method, the control device can adjust the state of the vehicle's functions based on the user's operation information and map the state of the functions to changes in the light of the luminous device. This eliminates the need for the user to view the function's state through additional equipment. The adjusted function's state is visually presented through visual signals such as the luminous area of ​​the luminous device, the displayed numbers, the light color, the duration of illumination, and the flashing frequency. Users can intuitively perceive the vehicle's current state, improving operational safety, enhancing the intuitiveness of information feedback, reducing the user's learning curve, and increasing the efficiency of the user's perception of the vehicle's state, thus improving the user experience. Furthermore, in complex scenarios, such as strong light or noisy environments, the light feedback has strong penetration, preventing information feedback failure due to unclear screen text or inaudible sound, thereby improving the effectiveness and stability of information transmission.

[0008] In one possible implementation of the first aspect, the light-emitting device emits light in a target pattern to indicate the function of the regulated vehicle.

[0009] In the above embodiments, there is a correspondence between the vehicle's functions and the target mode. Users can intuitively perceive which function of the vehicle is being adjusted through the visual signals of the light-emitting device, which can enhance the intuitiveness of information feedback and improve the user's perception efficiency of the vehicle's status.

[0010] In another possible implementation of the first aspect, the vehicle's functions include at least one of the following: a hood function, a vehicle lock function, an automatic parking function, a power indicator display, a voice interaction function, or a smart safety function. The hood function's states include a hood open state, a hood closed state, and a hood adjustment disabled state. The automatic parking function's states include an automatic parking function activated state. The voice interaction function's states include a voice interaction function activated state.

[0011] The above embodiments illustrate some vehicle functions that support the interaction of multiple functions. These functions are commonly used by users in actual vehicle use, which can minimize the daily operating costs of users, make high-frequency interactions more efficient, and improve the user's vehicle experience.

[0012] In another possible implementation of the first aspect, the luminescent device includes a vehicle emblem, the vehicle function includes a hood function, the vehicle hood includes a front hood, the vehicle emblem includes a front emblem positioned at the center of the front of the vehicle, and the front emblem illuminates in a target mode to indicate the hood function of the front hood. And / or, the vehicle hood includes a rear hood, the vehicle emblem includes a rear emblem positioned at the center of the rear of the vehicle, and the rear emblem illuminates in a target mode to indicate the hood function of the rear hood.

[0013] In the above embodiments, the light-emitting device includes a vehicle logo, which emits light in a target mode to indicate the hood function. That is, the state of the function is mapped to the light change of the vehicle logo, so that the user does not need to use an additional device to view the state of the function. This allows the state of the adjusted function to be presented in a visual way through the visual signal of the vehicle logo, which can give full play to the interactive and display capabilities of the vehicle logo, solve the user's need to obtain the state of the hood function outside the vehicle, enhance the intuitiveness of information feedback, improve the user's perception efficiency of the hood function state, and enhance the user's perception experience.

[0014] In another possible implementation of the first aspect, the vehicle further includes a first vibration sensor for detecting vibrations on the vehicle's hood, and operational information including first vibration data from the first vibration sensor.

[0015] In the above embodiments, the operation information includes vibration data on the hood, which can be used to adjust the vehicle's functions, thereby enabling the adjustment of the vehicle's functions with light touches. This eliminates the need to rely on physical buttons in fixed locations, solving the user's need to adjust the vehicle's functions and obtain the status of the functions from outside the vehicle. The interaction method is more flexible, the hardware design is simplified, the space and aesthetics are improved, and the operation is more convenient. This can minimize the user's daily operating costs, make the interaction more efficient, and improve the user's driving experience.

[0016] In another possible implementation of the first aspect, the light-emitting device includes a vehicle emblem, the vehicle emblem further including a pressure sensor for detecting pressure on the vehicle emblem, and operational information including pressure data from the pressure sensor.

[0017] In the above embodiments, the operation information includes pressure data on the car logo. This pressure data can be used to adjust the vehicle's functions, thereby enabling the adjustment of the vehicle's functions with a light touch. It does not rely on physical buttons in fixed positions, and can leverage the interactive capabilities of the car logo to solve the user's need to adjust the vehicle's functions and obtain the status of the functions from outside the vehicle. The interaction method is more flexible, simplifies hardware design, improves space and aesthetics, and makes operation more convenient. It can minimize the user's daily operating costs, make the interaction more efficient, and improve the user's car use experience.

[0018] In another possible implementation of the first aspect, the light-emitting device includes a vehicle emblem, which further includes a second vibration sensor for detecting vibrations on the vehicle emblem, and the operational information includes second vibration data from the second vibration sensor.

[0019] In the above embodiments, the operational information includes vibration data from the vehicle emblem. This vibration data can be used to adjust vehicle functions, enabling adjustments via light touch. This eliminates the need for physical buttons in fixed locations, leveraging the emblem's interactive capabilities to address users' needs for adjusting vehicle functions and accessing function status from outside the vehicle. The interaction method is more flexible, simplifies hardware design, improves space and aesthetics, and enhances operation. This minimizes daily operating costs for users, making interaction more efficient and improving the user experience. Furthermore, placing the vibration sensor within the emblem, compared to placing it on the hood, optimizes the sensor's placement and addresses issues such as inconsistent left-right recognition rates and difficulty in neutralizing false touch recognition rates when tapping to adjust the hood.

[0020] In another possible implementation of the first aspect, the light-emitting device is configured to emit light in a target mode in response to the state of the vehicle's function being adjusted.

[0021] In the above embodiments, the control device may not need to acquire the first information. When it detects that the state of the vehicle's function has been adjusted, it controls the lighting device to emit light in the lighting mode corresponding to the adjusted vehicle function, providing real-time feedback on the state of the vehicle's function. This allows the user to be aware of the function's state change simultaneously, reducing the user's cognitive burden. Moreover, in some cases, the vehicle's function may be passively adjusted; the light feedback can help the user quickly determine the cause of the function's state change, reducing troubleshooting steps.

[0022] In another possible implementation of the first aspect, the control device adjusts the state of the vehicle's function according to the first information and controls the vehicle's light-emitting device to emit light in a target mode, including: the control device determining, based on operation information, that the first operation is at least one of long press, short press, light press, heavy press, or tap. The control device, based on the first operation and the vehicle's state information, determines the function of the vehicle to be adjusted and the state of adjusting the function of the vehicle to be adjusted, and controls the light-emitting device to emit light in the target mode.

[0023] In another possible implementation of the first aspect, the pressing duration corresponding to a short press is less than a first duration threshold, and the pressing duration corresponding to a long press is greater than a second duration threshold. When the first operation is a short press or two taps, the function of the vehicle being adjusted is the hatch function, and the target mode is the first mode.

[0024] In the above embodiments, when the user taps twice or presses briefly, the control device can adjust the state of the hood function based on the first operation and the vehicle's state information, such as opening or closing the hood, and control the light-emitting device to emit light in the first mode, so that the user can intuitively perceive the state of the hood function through the visual signal of the light-emitting device, which can enhance the intuitiveness of information feedback, improve the user's perception efficiency of the vehicle's state, and enhance the user's perception experience.

[0025] In another possible implementation of the first aspect, the vehicle's status information includes weather information. The control device adjusts the state of the vehicle's function based on the first operation and the vehicle's status information, including: when the weather information meets a first condition, the control device adjusts the state of the hood function to a state where hood function adjustment is prohibited. Optionally, the first condition is extreme weather, such as heavy rain or hail.

[0026] In the above implementation, when the weather information meets the first condition, the control device can adjust the state of the hatch function to the state of prohibiting the adjustment of the hatch function, and control the vehicle logo to light up in the first mode, so that the user can intuitively perceive through visualization that the hatch function is in the state of prohibiting the adjustment of the hatch function, and the hatch function has been prohibited from adjustment (or blocked), thereby understanding why the user's tapping or pressing operation cannot open the hatch at this time.

[0027] In another possible implementation of the first aspect, a light press corresponds to a pressing pressure less than a first pressure threshold, while a heavy press corresponds to a pressing pressure greater than a second pressure threshold. When the first operation is a long press or a heavy press, the function of the vehicle being adjusted is the automatic parking function, and the target mode is the second mode.

[0028] In the above embodiments, when the user presses and holds the button, the control device can adjust the state of the automatic parking function based on the first operation and the vehicle's state information, such as turning the automatic parking function on or off, and control the light-emitting device to emit light in the second mode. This allows the user to intuitively perceive the state of the automatic parking function through the visual signal of the light-emitting device, which can enhance the intuitiveness of information feedback, improve the user's perception efficiency of the vehicle's state, and enhance the user's perception experience.

[0029] In another possible implementation of the first aspect, the method further includes, before the automatic parking function is triggered, the control device outputs a voice prompt or a display prompt.

[0030] In another possible implementation of the first aspect, a voice prompt or display prompt is used to instruct the user to perform a second operation, which is used to confirm the execution of automatic parking.

[0031] In the above implementation, a safety buffer is added before triggering automatic parking to prevent accidental activation, avoid the function from starting at the wrong time, reduce the risk of vehicle damage, allow users to fully control the operation rhythm, enhance user confidence, adapt to complex scenarios, and reduce the probability of operation errors.

[0032] In another possible implementation of the first aspect, when the first operation is a long press or a hard press, the function of the vehicle being adjusted is a voice interaction function, and the target mode is the third mode.

[0033] In the above embodiments, when the user presses or holds down the button, the control device can adjust the state of the voice interaction function based on the first operation and the vehicle's state information, such as turning the voice interaction function on or off, and control the light-emitting device to emit light in a third mode. This allows the user to intuitively perceive the state of the voice interaction function through the visual signal of the light-emitting device, thereby enhancing the intuitiveness of information feedback, improving the user's perception efficiency of the vehicle's state, and enhancing the user's perception experience.

[0034] In another possible implementation of the first aspect, when the first operation is a light press or tap once, the function of the adjusted vehicle is to display the battery level using an illuminated device, and the target mode is the fourth mode.

[0035] In the above embodiments, when a user presses or taps once, the control device can adjust the state of the power display function of the light-emitting device based on the first operation and the vehicle's status information, such as turning the power display function on or off, and controlling the light-emitting device to emit light in a fourth mode. This allows the user to intuitively perceive the status of the power display function through the visual signal of the light-emitting device, thus visually perceiving the remaining battery power of the vehicle. This enhances the intuitiveness of information feedback, improves the user's perception efficiency of the vehicle's status, and enhances the user experience. Moreover, the above embodiments can trigger multiple vehicle functions through different operations, such as different pressing or tapping methods, providing multiple tapping and pressing interaction capabilities.

[0036] In another possible implementation of the first aspect, the vehicle's status information includes the vehicle's charging status, and the control device adjusts the state of the adjusted vehicle's functions based on the first operation and the vehicle's status information, including: when the charging status indicates that the vehicle is charging, the control device displays the battery level via a light-emitting device.

[0037] In the above embodiments, when the charging status indicates that the vehicle is charging, the control device controls the light-emitting device to continuously display the power level, so that the user can intuitively perceive the current charging status of the vehicle in a visual manner through the visual signal of the light-emitting device, thereby enhancing the user's perception of the vehicle status.

[0038] Secondly, this application provides a control device, which includes a transceiver unit and a processing unit. The transceiver unit is used to acquire first information, including sensed operational information and vehicle status information. The processing unit is used to adjust the state of the vehicle's functions according to the first information and control the vehicle's lighting devices to emit light in a target mode. The lighting devices include at least one of a vehicle logo, vehicle lights, or a display device, and the target mode is associated with the state of the adjusted vehicle functions.

[0039] In one possible implementation of the second aspect, the processing unit is further configured to determine, based on the operation information, that the first operation is at least one of a long press, a short press, a light press, a heavy press, or a tap. The processing unit is also configured to, based on the first operation and the vehicle's state information, determine the function of the vehicle to be adjusted and the state of adjusting the function of the vehicle to be adjusted, and control the light-emitting device to emit light in a target mode.

[0040] In another possible implementation of the second aspect, the processing unit is further configured to adjust the state of the canopy function to a state where the canopy function is prohibited from being adjusted when the weather information meets the first condition.

[0041] In another possible implementation of the second aspect, the processing unit is also used to output voice prompts or display prompts before the automatic parking function is triggered.

[0042] In another possible implementation of the second aspect, the vehicle status information includes the vehicle's charging status, and the processing unit is further configured to display the battery level via a light-emitting device when the charging status indicates that the vehicle is charging.

[0043] Thirdly, embodiments of this application provide a computing device, the computing device including a processor and a memory, the memory storing a program, the processor executing the program stored in the memory to enable the computing device to implement the method described in any of the first aspects above.

[0044] Fourthly, this application provides a chip including a processor for executing computer execution instructions to cause a device on which the chip is mounted to perform the method described in any of the first aspects above.

[0045] Fifthly, this application provides a vehicle, which includes a light-emitting device and the control device described in the second aspect, or the computing device described in the third aspect, or the chip described in the fourth aspect, and the vehicle is used to implement the method described in any of the first aspects.

[0059] The vehicle provided in this application will be introduced below. It should be noted that the architecture and application scenarios of the device described in this application are for the purpose of more clearly illustrating the technical solution of this application, and do not constitute a limitation on the technical solution provided in this application. As those skilled in the art will know, with the evolution of architecture and the emergence of new business scenarios, the technical solution provided in this application is also applicable to similar technical problems.

[0060] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 1This is a schematic diagram of a vehicle structure provided in an embodiment of this application. The vehicle 100 includes a control device 10 and a light-emitting device 20. Of course, the vehicle 100 also includes devices supporting vehicle movement and vehicle control, such as a driving system, a braking system, etc., which are not described in detail here. It should be understood that the type of vehicle shown here is only an example. In specific implementations, the vehicle 100 can be different types of vehicles such as automobiles, trucks, trains, buses, vans, and electric vehicles.

[0061] The control device 10 has data processing and control capabilities. For example, the control device 10 can acquire first information, which may include perceived operational information and vehicle 100 status information. Further, the control device 10 adjusts the state of the vehicle 100's functions based on the first information and controls the light-emitting device 20 to emit light in a target mode. The target mode is associated with the adjusted function of the vehicle 100.

[0062] In some possible implementations, the control device 10 may include a hardware module with computing capabilities and / or a software module with computing capabilities. For example, the control device 10 includes at least one processor. The processor is a module with processing capabilities, such as one or more of the following: a central processing unit (CPU), a microprocessor (MPU), a microcontroller unit (MCU), a graphics processing unit (GPU), an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC), or a programmable logic device (PLD). As another example, the data processing device 11 includes software functional units, such as one or more of the following: an executable computer program, computer code, or computer instructions.

[0063] For example, the control device 10 includes, but is not limited to, a domain controller (DC), a mobile data center (MDC), an electronic control unit (ECU), and a vehicle integrated / integration unit (VIU). Among them, the DC may include a cockpit domain controller (CDC) and a vehicle domain controller (VDC).

[0064] The light-emitting device 20 is capable of emitting light. The light-emitting mode of the light-emitting device 20 is controlled by the control device 10. For example, the light-emitting device 20 includes the emblem of the vehicle 100 (such as...). Figure 2 The vehicle logo 201 shown may be located at the center of the front or rear of the vehicle 100. The headlights may be located at the front (e.g., headlights) or rear (e.g., taillights). The display device may be located at the front or rear of the vehicle 100. The display device may include one or more of the following: a physical screen, a projection system, a smart device, a button panel, or a window glass with a display function. Projection systems may include light field screens or other projection systems. Optionally, the number and placement of the light-emitting devices 20 may vary further. Figure 1 This is merely one possible design and does not constitute a limitation on this application.

[0065] The following is combined with Figure 2 An example of a vehicle logo 201 is described. Vehicle logo 201 refers to the mark (or identifier) ​​of a vehicle brand 100, and may include one or more elements such as graphics, letters, and colors. For example... Figure 2 As shown, the vehicle logo 201 includes a light-emitting module 2011 (such as light-emitting module 2011A and light-emitting module 2011B). The light-emitting module 2011 acts as a light source, providing sufficient brightness and uniformly distributed light. Exemplarily, the light-emitting module 2011 includes one or more light sources such as a light strip, a light-emitting diode (LED) array, an organic light-emitting diode (OLED) panel, or a cold cathode fluorescent lamp (CCFL). Further, the light-emitting module 2011 may include multiple light sources, supporting the emission of various colors of light, such as light red, dark red, white, dark blue, light blue, dark green, light green, dark purple, light purple, yellow, and orange. It should be noted that the color of the light source in the light-emitting module and the shape formed by the emitted light beam on the vehicle logo 201 can be designed based on the laws and regulations of the vehicle's production or sales location to ensure compliance with relevant laws and regulations.

[0066] Furthermore, the light-emitting module 2011 also includes one or more of the following: optical film materials (such as light guide plates, reflective sheets, diffuser sheets, brightness enhancement films (or prism sheets)), fixed lamps, and castings of film materials.

[0067] In one possible implementation, the logo 201 further includes a housing, such as an upper housing 2012 and a lower housing 2013. The upper housing 2012 may be the housing on the side of the logo 201 away from the vehicle body 100, and the lower housing 2013 may be the housing on the side of the logo 201 closer to the vehicle body 100. Optionally, the upper housing 2012 may be made of a light-transmitting material, allowing light emitted by the light-emitting module 2011 to pass through the upper housing 2012 and be transmitted to the outside of the logo 201. Exemplarily, the upper housing 2012 may include glass, crystal, light-transmitting ceramic, plastic, resin, etc. The lower housing 2013 may be made of plastic and / or metal, with the metal including alloys, and the alloys including at least one of stainless steel, aluminum alloy, titanium alloy, or magnesium alloy.

[0068] In one possible implementation, the vehicle 100 further includes a vibration sensor 30 (which may be referred to as the first vibration sensor 30 for easy distinction, e.g.) Figure 1 The vibration sensors 30A and 30B shown are configured such that the first vibration sensor 30 detects vibrations on the hood of the vehicle 100 and sends first vibration data to the control device 10. Exemplarily, the first vibration sensor 30 includes at least one of an elastic wave sensor, an acoustic sensor, or a knock-knock (KK) sensor. In one possible design, the vibration sensor 30A is disposed on the front hood of the vehicle 100 and is used to detect vibrations on the front hood, such as when a user taps the hood with their hand. For example, the vibration sensor 30A is disposed in the area of ​​the front hood of the vehicle 100 near the front bumper. As another example, the vibration sensor 30B is disposed on the rear hood of the vehicle 100 and is used to detect vibrations on the rear hood, such as when a user taps the rear hood with their hand.

[0069] In another possible implementation, vehicle 100 further includes a weather sensor 40 for detecting the weather at the location of vehicle 100. Exemplarily, weather sensor 40 includes at least one of sensors such as a sunlight / rainfall sensor and a microphone sensor. For example, weather sensor 40 includes a sunlight / rainfall sensor that can detect rainfall at the location of vehicle 100 and send the rainfall data to control device 10, from which the weather at the location of vehicle 100 can be determined. As another example, weather sensor 40 includes a microphone sensor that can detect sound at the location of vehicle 100 and send sound data to control device 10, from which the weather at the location of vehicle 100 can be determined. Optionally, weather information can also be obtained via a network; for example, control device 10 obtains the weather at the location of vehicle 100 through a vehicle network.

[0070] Another possible implementation method is to combine Figure 2 The logo 201 also includes a pressure sensor 2014. The pressure sensor 2014 is used to detect the pressure on the logo 201 and send the pressure data of the pressure sensor 2014 to the control device 10. For example, when a user presses the logo 201 with their hand, the pressure sensor 2014 can sense the pressure on the logo 201.

[0071] Another possible implementation method is to combine Figure 2 The logo 201 also includes a vibration sensor 2015 (which can be referred to as the second vibration sensor 2015 for easy distinction). The second vibration sensor 2015 is used to detect vibrations on the logo 201 and send the second vibration data of the second vibration sensor 2015 to the control device 10. For example, when a user taps the logo 201 with their hand, the second vibration sensor 2015 can sense the vibration of the logo 201.

[0072] Optionally, the pressure sensor 2014 and the second vibration sensor 2015 can be integrated together, for example, as a piezoelectric ceramic 2016. The piezoelectric ceramic 2016 can detect the pressure on the car emblem 201 and also detect the vibration on the car emblem 201. Piezoelectric ceramics are a type of functional electronic ceramic material with piezoelectric effect, capable of converting mechanical energy into electrical energy. When a user taps or presses the car emblem with their hand, bound charges are generated on the surface of the piezoelectric ceramic 2016, outputting an electrical signal (such as voltage / current), i.e., the direct piezoelectric effect. After processing, the electrical signal can be used to obtain a vibration waveform file or a pressure waveform file, realizing the detection of vibration or pressure on the car emblem. When the piezoelectric ceramic 2016 receives an alternating or direct current electric field applied by the driving circuit, the internal lattice of the piezoelectric ceramic undergoes polarization deformation (such as stretching, bending, torsion, etc.), realizing the conversion of electrical signals into mechanical actions (such as displacement output, vibration generation, etc.), i.e., the inverse piezoelectric effect.

[0073] It should be noted that the above Figure 1 and Figure 2 The sensor described is merely one possible example; in actual use, there may be many more designs with different types and numbers of sensors, which does not constitute a limitation on this application. Optionally, the structure of the headlights or display devices may be similar to that of vehicle logo 201, and will not be illustrated here.

[0074] In some possible implementations, vehicle 100 also includes a functional device (referred to as a first device for easy distinction), which has one or more functions, such as a two-level adjustment function (i.e., the function can be controlled to open / close). For example, the first device is a hatch, which can support adjusting the hatch's function to start or stop, such as adjusting the hatch to an open state, a closed state, or a state where adjustment of the hatch's function is prohibited (e.g., prohibiting the opening of the hatch). Another example is a vehicle lock, which can support adjusting the vehicle lock's function to start or stop, such as adjusting the vehicle lock to a locked state or an unlocked state. Yet another example is a smart system, which can support adjusting the start or stop of automatic parking, voice interaction, or smart safety functions, such as activating automatic parking, voice interaction, or smart safety functions. Furthermore, the first device may also include an air conditioner, which can support adjusting the start or stop of a specific function (e.g., natural wind mode, rapid heating mode, rapid cooling mode, etc.).

[0075] In one possible implementation, the first device is a hatch, which includes a front hatch. The luminous device 20 includes a front emblem positioned at the center of the front of the vehicle 100, and the front emblem illuminates in a target mode to indicate the hatch function of the front hatch. And / or, the luminous device 20 includes a rear emblem positioned at the center of the rear of the vehicle 100, and the rear emblem illuminates in a target mode to indicate the hatch function of the rear hatch.

[0076] In some possible implementations, the aforementioned multiple devices are connected to the control device 10 via a bus. The bus includes, but is not limited to, hardwired connections, controller area network (CAN), controller area network with flexible data rate (CANFD), controller area network extra long (CAN_XL), Ethernet, low voltage differential signaling (LVDS), flexray, local interconnect network (LIN), automotive audio bus (A2B), etc., and the number of connection channels can be one or more.

[0077] The following is combined Figure 3 An example of the connection relationship between various devices is described. (Combined with...) Figure 3 The vehicle logo 201 includes a light-emitting module 2011 and a piezoelectric ceramic 2016. The control device 10 includes a controller 101, a controller 102, and a controller 103. The weather sensor 40 includes a sunlight / rainfall sensor 401 and a microphone sensor 402. For example, controller 101 is a VIU, controller 102 is a CDC, and controller 103 is a piezoelectric ceramic MCU. Controller 102 processes the signal sent by the microphone sensor 402 and sends the processed signal to controller 101. Controller 103 processes the signal sent by the vehicle logo 201 and sends the processed signal to controller 101.

[0078] For example, vibration sensor 30 sends its first vibration data to vehicle logo 201, and piezoelectric ceramic 2016 sends its first vibration data and second vibration data to controller 103 via a hardwired connection. Controller 103 then sends the first vibration data and second vibration data to controller 101 via CAN or CANFD. Alternatively, piezoelectric ceramic 2016 sends its first vibration data and pressure data to controller 103 via a hardwired connection, and controller 103 then sends the same data to controller 101 via CAN or CANFD. Sunlight and rain sensor 401 sends its rainfall data to controller 101 via LIN. Microphone sensor 402 sends its sound data to controller 102 via A2B, and controller 102 sends the same sound data to controller 101 via Ethernet. The controller 101 adjusts the state of the vehicle's functions via hardwired adjustments based on the acquired data. Figure 3 (Not shown) and controls the light-emitting module 2011 in the logo 201 to emit light, realizing the interaction between the light of the logo 201 and the user's pressing and tapping adjustment functions.

[0079] It should be noted that the above Figure 3 The device described is only one possible example. In actual use, there may be more designs for the type and number of devices. The connection relationship between the devices is also one possible example. In actual use, there may be more possible designs for the connection between the devices. This does not constitute a limitation on this application.

[0080] The above provides an introduction to the vehicle. It should be noted that due to technological advancements or changes in application scenarios, some vehicles may include only some of the aforementioned components, or may include even more components.

[0081] With the rapid development of intelligent vehicles and intelligent connected technologies, the interaction needs between users and vehicles are increasing and becoming more diversified. The function of opening the vehicle hood without contact or with minimal contact is becoming increasingly common.

[0082] Currently, vehicle status feedback and display mainly rely on the in-vehicle dashboard and central control screen, or remote prompts via key or mobile app. However, when users are outside the vehicle, such as when they need to operate the hood directly from outside, the lack of effective visual feedback for contactless or light-touch hood opening makes it impossible for users to perceive the hood's status. If the hood is locked (or its functions are disabled), users cannot open it, resulting in a degraded user experience.

[0083] Furthermore, some commonly used vehicle functions, such as vehicle locks, automatic parking, and remaining battery power, require users to activate them via the dashboard, central control screen, key, or remote control via a mobile app. There is a lack of an intuitive, immediate, and non-external interactive method to adjust these functions and obtain their status.

[0084] In view of this, this application provides a control method and related device that can activate commonly used vehicle functions by the user without contact or with light contact, and map the adjustment of vehicle functions to the light changes of the light-emitting device, so that the state of the adjusted vehicle functions is presented in a visual way, which can improve the user's perception efficiency of the vehicle state and enhance the user's perception experience.

[0085] The following is combined Figure 4 This application describes the applicable scenarios in its embodiments, mainly including hatch function scenarios, automatic parking function scenarios, voice interaction function scenarios, and power display scenarios using light-emitting devices. Examples of these scenarios are provided below.

[0086] Scenario 1, Hood Function Scenario. Users can activate (or trigger) the vehicle's hood function by short pressing (e.g., short pressing the light-emitting device) or tapping twice (e.g., tapping the hood twice or tapping the light-emitting device twice). The hood function's status is adjusted, and the light-emitting device emits light in the first mode, allowing users to visually perceive the hood function's status through the light-emitting device's visual signals.

[0087] Scenario 2: Automatic Parking Function Scenario. Users can activate (or trigger) the vehicle's automatic parking function by long-pressing (e.g., long-pressing the illuminated device) or pressing hard (e.g., pressing hard on the illuminated device). The status of the automatic parking function can be adjusted, and the illuminated device will light up in a second mode, allowing users to visually perceive the status of the automatic parking function through the visual signals from the illuminated device.

[0088] Scenario 3: Voice Interaction Function Scenario. Users can activate (or trigger) the vehicle's voice interaction function by long-pressing (e.g., long-pressing the light-emitting device) or pressing hard (e.g., pressing hard on the light-emitting device), and adjust the status of the voice interaction function. The light-emitting device emits light in a third mode, allowing users to intuitively perceive the status of the voice interaction function in a visual way through the visual signals of the light-emitting device.

[0089] Scenario 4: Battery level indicator function. Users can activate (or trigger) the battery level indicator function by lightly pressing (e.g., lightly pressing the indicator) or tapping once (e.g., tapping the hood or the indicator). The indicator then adjusts its status, illuminating in a fourth mode. This allows users to visually perceive the battery level indicator's status and the vehicle's battery level through the indicator's visual signals.

[0090] Specifically, the process of recognizing user operations in the above scenarios and the corresponding control logic can be found in the following description.

[0091] For scenario 1, the hatch function scenario, the control device executes the following processing flow, which is explained by S11 to S13 respectively:

[0092] S11, the control device acquires first information, which includes perceived operation information and vehicle status information.

[0093] Operational information includes perception data obtained from sensors in the vehicle where the control unit is located, which is used to instruct the user on the first action.

[0094] There are many possible designs for sensors in vehicles; several are described below.

[0095] Design 1: The sensors in the vehicle include a vibration sensor (which can be referred to as the first vibration sensor for easy distinction). The first vibration sensor detects vibrations on the vehicle's hood. Operational information includes first vibration data from the first vibration sensor, which is used to instruct the user to perform actions such as tapping the hood. The first vibration sensor may include... Figure 1 The vibration sensor 30A and / or vibration sensor 30B are shown. Combined Figure 1 Vibration sensor 30A is installed on the front hood of vehicle 100. Vibration sensor 30A is used to detect vibrations on the front hood of vehicle 100. For example, when a user taps the front hood with their hand, vibration sensor 30A can sense the vibration of the front hood. The operational information includes first vibration data from vibration sensor 30A. Vibration sensor 30B is installed on the rear hood of vehicle 100. Vibration sensor 30B is used to detect vibrations on the rear hood of vehicle 100. For example, when a user taps the rear hood with their hand, vibration sensor 30B can sense the vibration of the rear hood. The operational information includes first vibration data from vibration sensor 30B.

[0096] Design 2: The sensors in the vehicle include a vibration sensor embedded in the vehicle emblem (for easy identification, it can be referred to as a second vibration sensor, such as...). Figure 2 The vibration sensor shown (2015) can detect vibrations on the car emblem. Operational information includes second vibration data from the second vibration sensor, which is used to instruct the user to perform actions such as tapping the car emblem. For example, the second vibration sensor can detect vibrations on the car emblem and send the second vibration data to a control device. For instance, when a user taps the car emblem with their hand, the second vibration sensor can sense the vibration of the emblem, and the operational information includes the second vibration data from the second vibration sensor.

[0097] Design 3, the sensors in the vehicle include pressure sensors (such as...) Figure 2 The pressure sensor (2014) shown can be installed in the car emblem. The pressure sensor can detect the pressure applied to the emblem, and the operational information includes pressure data from the pressure sensor. This pressure data is used to instruct the user to perform actions such as pressing the emblem. For example, the pressure sensor can detect the pressure applied to the emblem and send the pressure data to a control device. For instance, when a user presses the emblem with their hand, the pressure sensor can sense the pressure applied to the emblem, and the operational information includes the pressure data from the pressure sensor.

[0098] Alternatively, the above-mentioned designs can be combined with each other; for example, the second vibration sensor and pressure sensor in the car logo can be integrated together, for example, using piezoelectric ceramics (such as...). Figure 2 The piezoelectric ceramic (2016) can detect the pressure on the car logo and the vibration on the car logo. The operating information includes pressure data and / or second vibration data from the piezoelectric ceramic.

[0099] In Scenario 1, the vehicle's status information includes at least one of the following: vehicle speed, vehicle gear position, vehicle central locking information, and the current status of the vehicle's hood function. The vehicle's central locking information indicates whether the central locking system is locked or unlocked. The current status of the vehicle's hood function includes one of the following: hood open, hood closed, or hood adjustment disabled.

[0100] In Scenario 1, the vehicle's status information also includes weather information. For example, the weather information includes weather data obtained from weather sensors in the vehicle where the control device is located. As another example, the weather information can be obtained by the control device via a network; for instance, the control device obtains weather information about the vehicle's location via a vehicle-to-everything (V2X) network.

[0101] Taking weather information, including weather data obtained from weather sensors in the vehicle where the control unit is located, as an example, the weather data is used to indicate the weather at the vehicle's location. For instance, the sensors in the vehicle include weather sensors (such as...) Figure 1The weather sensor 40 shown can detect the weather at the vehicle's location, and the vehicle's status information includes weather data from the weather sensor. For example, the weather sensor includes at least one of sensors such as a sunlight / rainfall sensor and a microphone sensor. For instance, the weather sensor includes a sunlight / rainfall sensor, which can detect rainfall at the vehicle's location and send the rainfall data to the control device. The rainfall data provides the weather at the vehicle's location, and the weather data includes rainfall data; that is, the vehicle's status information includes rainfall data from the sunlight / rainfall sensor. For example, when the maximum rainfall data is greater than a first rainfall threshold, it indicates very heavy rainfall, possibly extreme weather (such as a rainstorm). When the maximum rainfall data is greater than a second rainfall threshold but less than the first rainfall threshold, it indicates moderate rainfall, possibly moderate rain. As another example, the weather sensor includes a microphone sensor, which can detect sound at the vehicle's location and send sound data to the control device. The sound data provides the weather at the vehicle's location, and the weather data includes sound data; that is, the vehicle's status information includes sound data from the microphone sensor. For example, when the maximum sound value of the sound data is greater than the first sound threshold, it indicates that the sound is very loud, which may be due to extreme weather (such as heavy rain, hail, etc.). When the maximum sound value of the sound data is greater than the second sound threshold but less than the first sound threshold, it indicates that the sound is relatively loud, which may be due to moderate rain, etc.

[0102] S12, the control device determines the first operation as a short press or two taps based on the first information.

[0103] For example, the operation information includes first vibration data from a first vibration sensor. For instance, if the waveform similarity between the waveform of the first vibration data and the first target waveform is greater than a first waveform similarity threshold, the control device determines that the first operation is to tap twice. As another example, the operation information includes second vibration data from a second vibration sensor. For instance, if the waveform similarity between the waveform of the second vibration data and the first target waveform is greater than a first waveform similarity threshold, the control device determines that the first operation is to tap twice. The first target waveform can be a preset target waveform, such as the waveform of vibration data when a user taps the hatch twice with their hand. Waveform similarity can be calculated using algorithms or models, and the first waveform similarity threshold is a set waveform similarity threshold that can be flexibly set based on the actual scenario, such as 60%, 70%, etc.

[0104] For another example, the operation information includes pressure data from a pressure sensor. For instance, if the pressure data is greater than a third pressure threshold and the pressing duration is less than a first duration threshold, the control device determines the first operation to be a short press. The pressing duration can be the duration for which the pressure data is greater than the third pressure threshold. Here, the third pressure threshold is a set pressure threshold, and the first duration threshold is a set duration threshold, which can be flexibly set based on the actual scenario; for example, the first duration threshold could be 2 seconds. Optionally, the user can perceive the pressing operation; for example, during the pressing process, the user can perceive vibration feedback to understand that they have successfully pressed the button.

[0105] S13, the control device determines the function of the vehicle to be adjusted as the hatch function and the state of the hatch function adjustment based on the first operation and the vehicle status information, and controls the light-emitting device to emit light in the first mode.

[0106] For example, combined Figure 4 When the first operation is a short press or two taps, the control device determines that the function of the vehicle being adjusted is the hatch function, and the light-emitting mode of the light-emitting device corresponding to the hatch function is the first mode.

[0107] The first mode is one of several lighting modes for the light-emitting device, and each lighting mode corresponds to one vehicle function. The first mode corresponds to the hood function. The first mode includes at least one of the following: the light emission color of the light-emitting device, the light emission duration of the light-emitting device, or the flashing frequency of the light-emitting device. Optionally, the first mode can be a lighting mode pre-set at the factory for the hood function, such as the first mode including the car logo flashing white light for 3 seconds at a flashing frequency of 1.5Hz. Alternatively, the first mode can also be determined based on user input information, i.e., it supports user-defined lighting modes, such as user-defined light emission color, light emission duration, or flashing frequency of the light-emitting device in the first mode.

[0108] Optionally, the vehicle status information includes at least one of the following: vehicle speed, vehicle gear position, vehicle central locking information, and the current status of the vehicle's hood function. For example, when the vehicle speed is 0, the gear position information indicates the gear is park, and the central locking information indicates the central locking is unlocked, if the current status of the vehicle's hood function is hood closed, the control device, based on the first operation and the vehicle status information, adjusts the hood function status from hood closed to hood open, and controls the luminous device to illuminate in a first mode. As another example, when the vehicle speed is 0, the gear position information indicates the gear is park, and the central locking information indicates the central locking is unlocked, if the current status of the vehicle's hood function is hood open, the control device, based on the first operation and the vehicle status information, adjusts the hood function status from hood open to hood closed, and controls the luminous device to illuminate in a first mode.

[0109] In Scenario 1, the vehicle's status information also includes weather information. For example, if the weather information meets a first condition, the control device adjusts the hood function to a state where hood adjustment is disabled. That is, the control device can disable hood adjustment based on weather information. For instance, the weather information includes rainfall data from a sunlight and rain sensor, and the first condition includes a maximum rainfall amount exceeding a second rainfall threshold. In other words, if the maximum rainfall amount exceeds the first rainfall threshold, the control device adjusts the hood function to a state where hood adjustment is disabled and controls the light-emitting device to emit light in a first mode.

[0110] For example, when the weather data meets the second condition, the control device adjusts the waveform similarity threshold corresponding to the canopy function to a second waveform similarity threshold, which is greater than the first waveform similarity threshold. In other words, the control device can increase the waveform similarity threshold corresponding to the canopy function based on weather information. For instance, the weather information includes rainfall data from a solar rain gauge, and the second condition includes a maximum rainfall amount greater than the second rainfall threshold and less than the first rainfall threshold. That is, when the maximum rainfall amount is greater than the second rainfall threshold and less than the first rainfall threshold, the waveform similarity threshold corresponding to the canopy function is increased, and the light-emitting device is controlled to emit light in a first mode.

[0111] In some possible cases, the first mode corresponding to the hatch function may differ in different states. For example, the first mode includes four sub-modes: a first sub-mode, a second sub-mode, a third sub-mode, and a fourth sub-mode. At least two of these four sub-modes differ in at least one of the following: the color of the light-emitting device, the duration of light emission, or the flashing frequency of the light-emitting device. Optionally, at least one of the following four sub-modes differs in at least one of the following: the color of the light-emitting device, the duration of light emission, or the flashing frequency of the light-emitting device; that is, the four sub-modes are mutually exclusive. For example, the color of the light-emitting device may differ in each sub-mode. The light-emitting device may include a car logo. In the first sub-mode, the car logo flashes white light for 3 seconds at a flashing frequency of 1.5Hz; in the second sub-mode, the car logo flashes yellow light for 3 seconds at a flashing frequency of 1.5Hz; in the third sub-mode, the car logo flashes dark blue light for 3 seconds at a flashing frequency of 1.5Hz; and in the fourth sub-mode, the car logo flashes dark green light for 3 seconds at a flashing frequency of 1.5Hz. It should be noted that only four sub-patterns are used as examples here. The information in each sub-pattern is only one possible example. In actual use, there are many more possible designs for the number and content of sub-patterns. That is, the number and content of sub-patterns can be expanded, which does not constitute a limitation on this application.

[0112] The following is an example of the first mode corresponding to the hatch function in different states.

[0113] For example, based on the first operation and vehicle status information, the control device adjusts the hood function from the hood closed state to the hood open state, and controls the light-emitting device to emit light in the first sub-mode. That is, when the hood function is adjusted to the hood open state, the control device controls the vehicle logo to flash white light for 3 seconds at a flashing frequency of 1.5Hz. In other words, when the user taps twice or presses briefly, the control device can open the hood based on the first operation and vehicle status information, and control the vehicle logo to emit light in the first sub-mode, so that the user can intuitively perceive that the hood function is in the open state through visualization.

[0114] For example, based on the first operation and vehicle status information, the control device adjusts the hood function from the hood open state to the hood closed state, and controls the light-emitting device to emit light in a second sub-mode. That is, when the hood function is adjusted to the hood closed state, the control device controls the vehicle logo to flash yellow light for 3 seconds at a flashing frequency of 1.5Hz. In other words, when the user taps twice or presses briefly, the control device can close the hood based on the first operation and vehicle status information, and control the vehicle logo to emit light in the second sub-mode, so that the user can visually perceive that the hood function is in the closed state.

[0115] For example, when the weather information meets the first condition, the control device adjusts the hood function to a state where hood adjustment is disabled, and controls the light-emitting device to emit light in a third sub-mode. That is, when the hood function is adjusted to a state where hood adjustment is disabled, the control device controls the vehicle logo to flash dark blue light for 3 seconds at a flashing frequency of 1.5Hz. In other words, when the weather information meets the first condition, the control device can adjust the hood function to a state where hood adjustment is disabled, and control the vehicle logo to emit light in a third sub-mode, so that the user can visually perceive that the hood function is in a state where hood adjustment is disabled, and that the hood function has been disabled (or disabled), thus understanding why the user's tapping or pressing operation cannot open the hood at this time.

[0116] For example, when the weather data meets the second condition, the control device adjusts the waveform similarity threshold corresponding to the hatch function to the second waveform similarity threshold and controls the light-emitting device to emit light in the fourth sub-mode. That is, when the waveform similarity threshold corresponding to the hatch function is adjusted to the second waveform similarity threshold, the control device controls the car logo to flash dark green light for 3 seconds at a flashing frequency of 1.5Hz. In other words, when the weather data meets the second condition, the control device can increase the waveform similarity threshold corresponding to the hatch function and control the car logo to emit light in the fourth sub-mode, allowing the user to intuitively perceive the status of the hatch function through visualization, thereby understanding why the user's operation cannot open or close the hatch at this time, prompting the user to need to tap more accurately (e.g., with greater force) to open or close the hatch.

[0117] In some possible implementations, the vehicle's status information includes the vehicle's speed, gear position, central locking information, and the current status of the hood function. When the vehicle speed is greater than 0, the gear position indicates the gear is not park, or the central locking information indicates the central locking is locked, the control device cannot adjust the hood function's status based on the first operation and the vehicle's status information. Since adjusting the hood function while the vehicle is in motion could be dangerous, the control device cannot adjust the hood function's status based on the first operation and the vehicle's status information when the vehicle is not stationary. Furthermore, since the vehicle may be locked because the owner has left the vehicle, to ensure vehicle safety and prevent others from opening the hood and taking the owner's belongings, the control device cannot adjust the hood function's status based on the first operation and the vehicle's status information.

[0118] For scenario 2, the automatic parking function scenario, the control device executes the following processing flow, which is explained by S21 to S23 respectively:

[0119] S21, the control device acquires first information, which includes perceived operation information and vehicle status information.

[0120] Operational information includes perception data obtained from sensors in the vehicle where the control unit is located, which is used to instruct the user on the first action.

[0121] For example, sensors in a vehicle include pressure sensors (such as...) Figure 2 The pressure sensor (2014) shown can be installed in the car emblem. The pressure sensor can detect the pressure applied to the emblem, and the operational information includes pressure data from the pressure sensor. This pressure data is used to instruct the user to perform actions such as pressing the emblem. For example, the pressure sensor can detect the pressure applied to the emblem and send the pressure data to a control device. For instance, when a user presses the emblem with their hand, the pressure sensor can sense the pressure applied to the emblem, and the operational information includes the pressure data from the pressure sensor.

[0122] Optionally, the second vibration sensor and pressure sensor in the car logo can be integrated together, for example, as a piezoelectric ceramic (such as...). Figure 2 The piezoelectric ceramic (2016) can detect the pressure on the car logo and the vibration on the logo. The operating information includes pressure data from the piezoelectric ceramic.

[0123] In Scenario 2, the vehicle's status information includes at least one of the following: vehicle speed, vehicle gear position, vehicle central locking information, and the current status of the vehicle's automatic parking function. The vehicle's central locking information indicates whether the vehicle's central locking system is locked or unlocked. The current status of the vehicle's automatic parking function includes one of the following: automatic parking function is enabled or disabled.

[0124] S22, the control device determines the first operation as a long press or a hard press based on the first information.

[0125] For example, the operation information includes pressure data from a pressure sensor. For instance, if the pressure data is greater than a third pressure threshold and the press duration is greater than a second duration threshold, the control device determines the first operation to be a long press. The press duration can be the duration for which the pressure data is greater than the third pressure threshold. Here, the third pressure threshold is a set pressure threshold, and the second duration threshold is a set duration threshold, which can be flexibly set based on the actual scenario, for example, the second duration threshold could be 5 seconds. Optionally, the second duration threshold is the same as the first duration threshold.

[0126] For example, the operational information includes pressure data from a pressure sensor. For instance, if the pressure data exceeds a second pressure threshold, the control device determines the first operation to be a hard press. The second pressure threshold is a preset pressure threshold that can be flexibly set based on the actual scenario.

[0127] S23, the control device determines, based on the first operation and the vehicle's status information, that the function of the vehicle being adjusted is the automatic parking function and adjusts the status of the automatic parking function, and controls the lighting device to emit light in the second mode.

[0128] For example, combined Figure 4 When the first operation is a long press or a hard press, the control device determines that the function of the vehicle being adjusted is the automatic parking function, and the illumination mode of the illumination device corresponding to the automatic parking function is the second mode.

[0129] The second mode is one of several illumination modes of the light-emitting device, and it differs from the first mode. The second mode corresponds to the automatic parking function. The second mode includes at least one of the following: the light-emitting color, the illumination duration, or the flashing frequency of the light-emitting device. Optionally, the second mode can be the illumination mode pre-set at the factory for the automatic parking function, such as the second mode including the car logo lighting up in deep red for 3 seconds. Alternatively, the second mode can also be determined based on user input information, i.e., it supports user-defined illumination modes, such as user-defined light-emitting color, illumination duration, or flashing frequency of the light-emitting device in the second mode.

[0130] Optionally, the vehicle status information includes at least one of the following: vehicle speed, vehicle gear position, vehicle central locking information, and the current status of the vehicle's automatic parking function. For example, when the vehicle speed is 0, the gear position information indicates the gear is park, and the central locking information indicates the central locking is unlocked, if the current status of the vehicle's automatic parking function is automatic parking off, the control device, based on the first operation and the vehicle status information, adjusts the status of the automatic parking function from automatic parking off to automatic parking on, and controls the illuminating device to illuminate in a second mode. As another example, when the vehicle speed is 0, the gear position information indicates the gear is park, and the central locking information indicates the central locking is unlocked, if the current status of the vehicle's automatic parking function is automatic parking on, the control device, based on the first operation and the vehicle status information, adjusts the status of the automatic parking function from automatic parking on to automatic parking off, and controls the illuminating device to illuminate in a second mode.

[0131] In some embodiments, under scenario 2, the vehicle status information also includes whether the user has a key. For example, if the user has a key, the control device adjusts the status of the automatic parking function based on the first operation and the vehicle status information, and controls the lighting device to illuminate in a second mode. As another example, if the user does not have a key, the control device cannot adjust the status of the automatic parking function or control the lighting device to illuminate in the second mode based on the first operation and the vehicle status information. Since the user not having a key may mean that someone other than the owner or user of the vehicle is controlling it, to ensure vehicle safety and prevent unauthorized control, the control device cannot adjust the status of the automatic parking function based on the first operation and the vehicle status information.

[0132] In some embodiments, under scenario 2, the vehicle status information also includes whether the user has a key, the key's location information, and the user's location information. For example, if the user has a key, and the key's location information and the user's location information meet a third condition, the control device adjusts the state of the automatic parking function based on the first operation and the vehicle status information, and controls the light-emitting device to emit light in a second mode. The third condition may be that the key's location and the user's location are consistent. Optionally, if the difference between the key's location and the user's location is less than a first error threshold, it can also be understood as the key's location and the user's location being consistent. Further exemplarily, if the user has a key but the key's location information and the user's location information do not meet the third condition, the control device cannot adjust the state of the automatic parking function based on the first operation and the vehicle status information, and cannot control the light-emitting device to emit light in the second mode. Since the user has a key, but the locations are inconsistent, it may not be the user with the key controlling the vehicle. To ensure vehicle safety and prevent others from controlling the vehicle, the control device cannot adjust the state of the automatic parking function based on the first operation and the vehicle status information.

[0133] In some possible cases, the second mode corresponding to the automatic parking function may differ depending on the state. For example, the second mode includes two sub-modes: a fifth sub-mode and a sixth sub-mode. These two sub-modes differ in at least one of the following: the color of the light-emitting device, the duration of its illumination, or the flashing frequency of its light-emitting device. For instance, the color of the light-emitting device differs in each sub-mode. The light-emitting device includes a car logo; the fifth sub-mode includes the car logo remaining constantly lit in deep red light for 3 seconds, while the sixth sub-mode includes the car logo flashing in deep red light for 3 seconds at a flashing frequency of 1.5 Hz. It should be noted that this example only uses two sub-modes, and the information in each sub-mode is only one possible example. In actual use, the number and content of sub-modes can be designed in many more ways; that is, the number and content of sub-modes are expandable and do not constitute a limitation of this application.

[0134] The following is an example of the second mode corresponding to different states of the automatic parking function.

[0135] For example, based on the first operation and vehicle status information, the control device adjusts the automatic parking function from the automatic parking function off state to the automatic parking function on state, and controls the light-emitting device to illuminate in the fifth sub-mode. That is, when the automatic parking function is adjusted to the automatic parking function on state, the control device controls the car logo to light up with a deep red light for 3 seconds. In other words, when the user presses and holds the button, the control device can turn on the automatic parking function based on the first operation and vehicle status information, and control the car logo to illuminate in the fifth sub-mode, so that the user can intuitively perceive that the automatic parking function is on through visualization.

[0136] For example, based on the first operation and vehicle status information, the control device adjusts the automatic parking function from the automatic parking function on state to the automatic parking function off state, and controls the light-emitting device to emit light in the sixth sub-mode. That is, when the automatic parking function is adjusted to the automatic parking function off state, the control device controls the car logo to flash dark red light for 3 seconds, with a flashing frequency of 1.5Hz. In other words, when the user presses and holds the button, the control device can turn off the automatic parking function based on the first operation and vehicle status information, and control the car logo to emit light in the sixth sub-mode, so that the user can intuitively perceive that the automatic parking function is off through visualization.

[0137] In some possible implementations, before the automatic parking function is triggered, the control device may output a voice prompt or a display prompt to instruct the user to perform a second operation, which is used to confirm the execution of automatic parking. For example, the control device may output a voice prompt through the vehicle's audio device, such as "Please confirm whether to execute automatic parking. If you confirm, press and hold again," meaning the second operation is a long press or a hard press. When the user is detected to have pressed and held again, the automatic parking function is triggered. Alternatively, the control device may output a display prompt through the vehicle's display device, such as "Please confirm whether to execute automatic parking. If you confirm, press and hold again," meaning the second operation is a long press or a hard press. When the user is detected to have pressed and held again, the automatic parking function is triggered.

[0138] In some possible implementations, vehicle status information includes vehicle speed, gear position, central locking information, and the current status of the automatic parking function. When the vehicle speed is greater than 0, the gear position indicates the gear is not park, or the central locking information indicates the central locking is locked, the control device cannot adjust the automatic parking function's status based on the first operation and the vehicle status information. Since adjusting the automatic parking function while the vehicle is in motion may be dangerous, the control device cannot adjust the automatic parking function's status based on the first operation and the vehicle status information when the vehicle is detected to be not stationary. Since the vehicle may be in a locked state when the central locking is engaged, indicating the owner has left the vehicle, the control device cannot adjust the automatic parking function's status based on the first operation and the vehicle status information to ensure vehicle safety and prevent unauthorized parking.

[0139] For scenario 3, the voice interaction function scenario, the control device executes the following processing flow, which is explained by S31 to S33 respectively:

[0140] S31, the control device acquires first information, which includes perceived operation information and vehicle status information.

[0141] Operational information includes perception data obtained from sensors in the vehicle where the control unit is located, which is used to instruct the user on the first action.

[0142] For example, sensors in a vehicle include pressure sensors (such as...) Figure 2 The pressure sensor (2014) shown can be installed in the car emblem. The pressure sensor can detect the pressure applied to the emblem, and the operational information includes pressure data from the pressure sensor. This pressure data is used to instruct the user to perform actions such as pressing the emblem. For example, the pressure sensor can detect the pressure applied to the emblem and send the pressure data to a control device. For instance, when a user presses the emblem with their hand, the pressure sensor can sense the pressure applied to the emblem, and the operational information includes the pressure data from the pressure sensor.

[0143] Optionally, the second vibration sensor and pressure sensor in the car logo can be integrated together, for example, as a piezoelectric ceramic (such as...). Figure 2 The piezoelectric ceramic (2016) can detect the pressure on the car logo and the vibration on the logo. The operating information includes pressure data from the piezoelectric ceramic.

[0144] In scenario 3, the vehicle's status information includes at least one of the following: vehicle speed, vehicle gear position, vehicle central locking information, and the current status of the vehicle's voice interaction function. The vehicle's central locking information indicates whether the central locking system is locked or unlocked. The current status of the vehicle's voice interaction function includes one of the following: voice interaction function is enabled or disabled.

[0145] S32, the control device determines the first operation as a long press or a hard press based on the first information.

[0146] For example, the operation information includes pressure data from a pressure sensor. For instance, if the pressure data is greater than a third pressure threshold and the press duration is greater than a second duration threshold, the control device determines the first operation to be a long press. The press duration can be the duration for which the pressure data is greater than the third pressure threshold. Here, the third pressure threshold is a set pressure threshold, and the second duration threshold is a set duration threshold, which can be flexibly set based on the actual scenario, for example, the second duration threshold could be 5 seconds. Optionally, the second duration threshold is the same as the first duration threshold.

[0147] For example, the operational information includes pressure data from a pressure sensor. For instance, if the pressure data exceeds a second pressure threshold, the control device determines the first operation to be a hard press. The second pressure threshold is a preset pressure threshold that can be flexibly set based on the actual scenario.

[0148] S33, the control device determines, based on the first operation and the vehicle's status information, that the function of the vehicle being adjusted is the voice interaction function and the state of the voice interaction function, and controls the light-emitting device to emit light in the third mode.

[0149] For example, combined Figure 4 When the first operation is a long press or a hard press, the control device determines that the function of the vehicle being adjusted is a voice interaction function (also known as a voice assistant), and the illumination mode of the illumination device corresponding to the voice interaction function is the third mode.

[0150] The third mode is one of several illumination modes of the illumination device, and the third mode is different from the first and second modes. The third mode corresponds to the voice interaction function. The third mode includes at least one of the following: the illumination color of the illumination device, the illumination duration of the illumination device, or the flashing frequency of the illumination device. Optionally, the third mode can be the illumination mode corresponding to the voice interaction function preset at the vehicle's factory, such as the third mode including the car logo being constantly lit in dark purple light for 3 seconds. Alternatively, the third mode can also be determined based on user input information, i.e., it supports user-defined illumination modes, such as user-defined illumination color, illumination duration, or flashing frequency of the illumination device in the third mode.

[0151] Optionally, the vehicle status information includes at least one of the following: vehicle speed, vehicle gear position, vehicle central locking information, and the current status of the vehicle's voice interaction function. For example, when the vehicle speed is 0, the gear position information indicates the gear is park, and the central locking information indicates the central locking is unlocked, if the current status of the vehicle's voice interaction function is voice-off, the control device, based on the first operation and the vehicle status information, adjusts the voice interaction function from voice-off to voice-on, and controls the luminous device to illuminate in a third mode. As another example, when the vehicle speed is 0, the gear position information indicates the gear is park, and the central locking information indicates the central locking is unlocked, if the current status of the vehicle's voice interaction function is voice-on, the control device, based on the first operation and the vehicle status information, adjusts the voice interaction function from voice-on to voice-off, and controls the luminous device to illuminate in a third mode.

[0152] In some embodiments, in scenario 2, the vehicle status information also includes whether the user has brought the key. For example, if the user has brought the key, the control device adjusts the state of the voice interaction function based on the first operation and the vehicle status information, and controls the light-emitting device to illuminate in a second mode. As another example, if the user does not bring the key, the control device cannot adjust the state of the voice interaction function based on the first operation and the vehicle status information, and cannot control the light-emitting device to illuminate in a third mode. Since the user not bringing the key may mean that someone other than the owner or user of the vehicle is controlling it, to ensure vehicle security and prevent unauthorized control, the control device cannot adjust the state of the voice interaction function based on the first operation and the vehicle status information.

[0153] In some embodiments, under scenario 2, the vehicle status information also includes whether the user has a key, the key's location information, and the user's location information. For example, if the user has a key, and the key's location information and the user's location information meet a third condition, the control device adjusts the state of the voice interaction function based on the first operation and the vehicle status information, and controls the light-emitting device to emit light in a third mode. Further exemplarily, if the user has a key, but the key's location information and the user's location information do not meet the third condition, the control device cannot adjust the state of the voice interaction function based on the first operation and the vehicle status information, nor can it control the light-emitting device to emit light in the third mode. Since the user may have a key, but the locations are inconsistent, it is possible that someone other than the user with the key is controlling the vehicle. To ensure vehicle safety and prevent others from controlling the vehicle, the control device cannot adjust the state of the voice interaction function based on the first operation and the vehicle status information.

[0154] In some embodiments, under scenario 2, the vehicle's status information also includes the user's voice information. For example, if the extracted voice features from the user's voice information match pre-stored user voice features, the control device adjusts the state of the voice interaction function based on the first operation and the vehicle's status information, and controls the light-emitting device to emit light in a third mode. Voice features include, for example, voiceprints. Further exemplarily, if the extracted voice features from the user's voice information do not match pre-stored user voice features, the control device cannot adjust the state of the voice interaction function or control the light-emitting device to emit light in a third mode based on the first operation and the vehicle's status information. Since inconsistent user voice features may indicate that the vehicle is not being controlled by the owner or user, to ensure vehicle safety and prevent unauthorized control, the control device cannot adjust the state of the voice interaction function based on the first operation and the vehicle's status information.

[0155] In some possible cases, the third mode corresponding to the voice interaction function may differ under different states. For example, the third mode includes two sub-modes: a seventh sub-mode and an eighth sub-mode. These two sub-modes differ in at least one of the following: the color of the light-emitting device, the duration of its illumination, or the flashing frequency of its light-emitting device. For instance, the color of the light-emitting device may differ in different sub-modes. If the light-emitting device includes a car logo, the seventh sub-mode may include the car logo being constantly illuminated with a deep purple light for 3 seconds, while the eighth sub-mode may include the car logo flashing with a deep purple light for 3 seconds at a flashing frequency of 1.5 Hz. It should be noted that this example only uses two sub-modes, and the information in each sub-mode is only one possible example. In actual use, the number and content of sub-modes can be designed in many more ways; that is, the number and content of sub-modes are expandable and do not constitute a limitation of this application.

[0156] The following is an example of a third mode corresponding to different states of a voice interaction function.

[0157] For example, based on the first operation and the vehicle's status information, the control device adjusts the voice interaction function from the voice interaction function off state to the voice interaction function on state, and controls the light-emitting device to emit light in the seventh sub-mode. That is, when the voice interaction function is adjusted to the voice interaction function on state, the control device controls the car logo to light up with a deep purple light for 3 seconds. In other words, when the user presses and holds the button, the control device can turn on the voice interaction function based on the first operation and the vehicle's status information, and control the car logo to emit light in the fifth sub-mode, so that the user can intuitively perceive that the voice interaction function is on through visualization.

[0158] For example, based on the first operation and vehicle status information, the control device adjusts the voice interaction function from the voice interaction function enabled state to the voice interaction function disabled state, and controls the light-emitting device to emit light in the eighth sub-mode. That is, when the voice interaction function is adjusted to the voice interaction function disabled state, the control device controls the car logo to flash dark purple light for 3 seconds, with a flashing frequency of 1.5Hz. In other words, when the user presses and holds the button, the control device can disable the voice interaction function based on the first operation and vehicle status information, and control the car logo to emit light in the eighth sub-mode, so that the user can intuitively perceive that the voice interaction function is disabled through visualization.

[0159] In some possible implementations, vehicle status information includes vehicle speed, gear position, central locking information, and the current status of the vehicle's voice interaction function. When the vehicle speed is greater than 0, the gear position indicates the gear is not park, or the central locking information indicates the central locking is locked, the control device cannot adjust the voice interaction function's status based on the first operation and the vehicle's status information. Since adjusting the voice interaction function while the vehicle is in motion may be dangerous, the control device cannot adjust the voice interaction function's status based on the first operation and the vehicle's status information when the vehicle is detected to be not stationary. Since the vehicle may be locked because the owner has left the vehicle, to ensure vehicle safety and prevent unauthorized control, the control device cannot adjust the voice interaction function's status based on the first operation and the vehicle's status information.

[0160] For scenario 4, where the light-emitting device displays the battery level, the control device executes the following processing flow, which will be explained using steps S41 to S43 respectively:

[0161] S41, the control device acquires first information, which includes perceived operation information and vehicle status information.

[0162] Operational information includes perception data obtained from sensors in the vehicle where the control unit is located, which is used to instruct the user on the first action.

[0163] In conjunction with the aforementioned design 1, the sensors in the vehicle include a first vibration sensor, which can detect vibrations on the vehicle's hood. The operational information includes first vibration data from the first vibration sensor, which is used to instruct the user to perform actions such as tapping the hood.

[0164] In conjunction with the aforementioned design 2, the sensors in the vehicle include a second vibration sensor (such as one embedded in the vehicle emblem) Figure 2The vibration sensor shown (2015) can detect vibrations on the car logo. The operation information includes second vibration data from the second vibration sensor, which is used to instruct the user to perform actions such as tapping the car logo.

[0165] In conjunction with the aforementioned design 3, the sensors in the vehicle include pressure sensors (such as...) Figure 2 The pressure sensor shown is 2014. The pressure sensor can be installed in the car emblem. The pressure sensor can detect the pressure on the car emblem. The operation information includes pressure data from the pressure sensor. The pressure data is used to instruct the user to perform operations such as pressing the car emblem.

[0166] Optionally, the second vibration sensor and pressure sensor in the car logo can be integrated together, for example, as a piezoelectric ceramic (such as...). Figure 2 The piezoelectric ceramic (2016) can detect the pressure on the car logo and the vibration on the car logo. The operating information includes pressure data and / or second vibration data from the piezoelectric ceramic.

[0167] Optionally, in scenario 4, the vehicle's status information includes at least one of the following: vehicle speed, vehicle gear information, vehicle central locking information, and the current status of the vehicle's battery level indicator. The current status of the vehicle's battery level indicator includes one of the following: the battery level indicator is on (i.e., the indicator displays the battery level) or the battery level indicator is off (i.e., the indicator does not display the battery level).

[0168] Alternatively, in scenario 4, the vehicle's status information may also include the vehicle's remaining battery power and the vehicle's charging status.

[0169] S42, the control device determines the first operation as a light press or tap once based on the first information.

[0170] For example, the operation information includes first vibration data from a first vibration sensor. For instance, if the waveform similarity between the waveform of the first vibration data and the second target waveform is greater than a third waveform similarity threshold, the control device determines that the first operation is a single tap. As another example, the operation information includes second vibration data from a second vibration sensor. For instance, if the waveform similarity between the waveform of the second vibration data and the second target waveform is greater than a third waveform similarity threshold, the control device determines that the first operation is a single tap. The second target waveform can be a preset target waveform, such as the waveform of vibration data when a user taps the hatch once with their hand. Waveform similarity can be calculated using algorithms or models, and the third waveform similarity threshold is a set waveform similarity threshold that can be flexibly set based on the actual scenario, such as 60%, 70%, etc. Optionally, the third waveform similarity threshold can be the same as the first waveform similarity threshold.

[0171] As another example, the operational information includes pressure data from a pressure sensor. For instance, if the pressure data is less than a first pressure threshold, the control device determines that the first operation is a light press. Here, the first pressure threshold is a set pressure threshold that can be flexibly set based on the actual scenario. Optionally, the second pressure threshold is the same as the first pressure threshold.

[0172] S43, the control device determines, based on the first operation and the vehicle's status information, that the function of the vehicle being adjusted is the power display function of the light-emitting device and the state of adjusting the power display function of the light-emitting device, and controls the light-emitting device to emit light in the fourth mode.

[0173] For example, combined Figure 4 When the first operation is a light press or tap, the control device determines that the function of the vehicle being adjusted is the power display function of the light-emitting device, and the light-emitting mode of the light-emitting device corresponding to the power display function is the fourth mode.

[0174] The fourth mode is one of several illumination modes of the illumination device, and each illumination mode corresponds to one vehicle function. The fourth mode corresponds to the illumination device's battery level display function. The fourth mode includes at least one of the following: the illumination area of ​​the illumination device (also known as the area of ​​the illumination region of the illumination device), the displayed number of the illumination device, or the illumination brightness of the illumination device. The fourth mode also includes at least one of the following: the illumination color of the illumination device, the illumination duration of the illumination device, or the flashing frequency of the illumination device. Optionally, the fourth mode can be a illumination mode corresponding to the battery level display function of the illumination device preset at the vehicle's factory. For example, the fourth mode includes the illumination area of ​​the illumination device, which is related to the vehicle's battery level (i.e., the vehicle's remaining battery level). Alternatively, the fourth mode can also be determined based on user input information, i.e., it supports user-defined illumination modes, such as user-defined illumination color, illumination duration, or flashing frequency of the illumination device in the fourth mode.

[0175] In one possible implementation, the fourth mode includes a light-emitting area of ​​a light-emitting device, which includes a vehicle logo. The area of ​​the logo's light-emitting region is related to the vehicle's remaining battery power. That is, after receiving the remaining battery power from the control device, the logo maps the remaining power onto the area of ​​its light-emitting region; for example, the higher the remaining battery power, the larger the area of ​​the logo's light-emitting region. Optionally, the ratio between the area of ​​the logo's light-emitting region and the total area of ​​the logo's light-emitting region is the same as the ratio between the vehicle's remaining battery power and the vehicle's rated battery power. Figure 5 If the ratio of the vehicle's remaining battery power to its rated battery power is 0.5, then the ratio of the area of ​​the luminous area of ​​the vehicle emblem to the total luminous area of ​​the emblem is also 0.5. The total luminous area of ​​the emblem is... Figure 5The area of ​​the hexagonal region is the first area, and the area of ​​the luminous area of ​​the car logo is... Figure 5 The area of ​​the gray region is the second area, and the ratio between the second area and the first area is also 0.5. In other words, when the user presses lightly, the control device can control the indicator light to display the battery level based on pressure data from the pressure sensor and the vehicle's remaining battery power, i.e., adjusting the area of ​​the indicator light's luminous region. Alternatively, when the user taps once, the control device can control the indicator light to display the battery level based on vibration data from the vibration sensor and the vehicle's remaining battery power, i.e., adjusting the area of ​​the indicator light's luminous region. This allows the user to visually perceive the vehicle's remaining battery power, enhancing their awareness of the vehicle's status.

[0176] In another possible implementation, the fourth mode includes a number displayed by a light-emitting device, which includes a display unit. The number displayed on the display unit is related to the vehicle's remaining battery power. That is, after the vehicle logo receives the remaining battery power from the control device, it maps the remaining battery power onto the number displayed on the display unit. For example, the higher the remaining battery power, the larger the number displayed on the display unit. Optionally, the number displayed on the display unit is the ratio between the vehicle's remaining battery power and the vehicle's rated battery power. Figure 6 If the ratio between the vehicle's remaining battery power and its rated battery power is 0.5, the display device will show a number of 0.5. In other words, when the user presses a light button, the control device can adjust the displayed battery level based on pressure data from a pressure sensor and the vehicle's remaining battery power. Similarly, when the user taps the device once, the control device can adjust the displayed battery level based on vibration data from a vibration sensor and the vehicle's remaining battery power. This allows the user to visually perceive the vehicle's remaining battery power, enhancing their awareness of the vehicle's status.

[0177] In another possible implementation, the fourth mode includes the brightness of the light-emitting device, which is related to the remaining battery power. That is, after receiving the remaining battery power from the control device, the light-emitting device maps the remaining power to its brightness; for example, the higher the remaining battery power, the brighter the light-emitting device. In other words, when the user presses lightly, the control device can control the display of battery power based on pressure data from a pressure sensor and the vehicle's remaining battery power, i.e., adjust the brightness of the light-emitting device. Alternatively, when the user taps once, the control device can control the display of battery power based on vibration data from a vibration sensor and the vehicle's remaining battery power, i.e., adjust the brightness of the light-emitting device. This allows the user to intuitively perceive the vehicle's remaining battery power visually, enhancing the user's awareness of the vehicle's status.

[0178] Optionally, the vehicle status information includes at least one of the following: vehicle speed, vehicle gear information, vehicle central locking information, and the current status of the vehicle's illuminated device displaying battery level. For example, when the vehicle speed is 0, the gear information indicates the gear is park, and the central locking information indicates the central locking is unlocked, if the current status of the vehicle's illuminated device displaying battery level is off, the control device, based on the first operation and the vehicle status information, adjusts the status of the illuminated device displaying battery level from off to on, and controls the illuminated device to illuminate in a fourth mode. For another example, when the vehicle speed is 0, the gear information indicates that the gear is parking, and the vehicle's central locking information indicates that the central locking is in the unlocked state, if the current status of the vehicle's illumination device displaying the battery level is in the on state, the control device, based on the first operation and the vehicle's status information, adjusts the status of the illumination device displaying the battery level from the on state to the off state, and controls the illumination device to illuminate in the fourth mode.

[0179] Alternatively, in scenario 4, the vehicle's status information also includes the vehicle's charging status. For example, when the charging status indicates the vehicle is charging, the control device displays the battery level via a light-emitting device. That is, the control device can determine the battery level to be displayed via the light-emitting device based on the charging status. For instance, when the charging status indicates the vehicle is charging, the control device controls the light-emitting device to continuously display the battery level, allowing the user to intuitively perceive the vehicle's current charging status visually, enhancing the user's awareness of the vehicle's status.

[0180] Alternatively, in scenario 4, the vehicle's status information also includes weather information. For example, if the weather information meets the first condition, the control device adjusts the status of the power display function of the illumination device to a state where adjustment of the power display function is prohibited. That is, the control device can prohibit adjustment of the power display function of the illumination device based on weather information. For instance, the weather information includes rainfall data from a sunlight and rain sensor. If the maximum rainfall data exceeds a first rainfall threshold, the control device adjusts the power display function of the illumination device to a state where adjustment of the power display function is prohibited, and controls the illumination device to emit light in a fourth mode.

[0181] For another example, when the weather data meets the second condition, the control device adjusts the waveform similarity threshold corresponding to the power display function of the light-emitting device to a fourth waveform similarity threshold, which is greater than the third waveform similarity threshold. In other words, the control device can increase the waveform similarity threshold corresponding to the power display function of the light-emitting device based on weather information. For instance, if the weather information includes rainfall data from a sunlight and rain gauge sensor, and the maximum rainfall is greater than a second rainfall threshold but less than a first rainfall threshold, the waveform similarity threshold corresponding to the power display function of the light-emitting device is increased, and the light-emitting device is controlled to emit light in a fourth mode.

[0182] In some possible cases, the fourth mode corresponding to the power display function of the light-emitting device may differ depending on the state. For example, the fourth mode includes four sub-modes: a ninth sub-mode, a tenth sub-mode, an eleventh sub-mode, and a twelfth sub-mode. These four sub-modes differ in at least one of the following: the light-emitting area of ​​the light-emitting device (also referred to as the area of ​​the light-emitting region); the number displayed by the light-emitting device; the brightness of the light-emitting device; the color of the light-emitting device; the duration of light emission; or the flashing frequency of the light-emitting device. For instance, the light-emitting area of ​​the light-emitting device differs in different sub-modes, and the light-emitting area changes with the remaining power. For example, when the vehicle is charging, if the ratio between the remaining power and the vehicle's rated power is 0.3, the ratio between the light-emitting area of ​​the light-emitting device and the area of ​​the total light-emitting region in the ninth sub-mode is 0.3. If the ratio between the remaining power and the vehicle's rated power is 0.5, the ratio between the light-emitting area of ​​the light-emitting device and the area of ​​the total light-emitting region in the tenth sub-mode is 0.5. For example, the light-emitting device emits different colors in different sub-modes. The light-emitting device includes the car logo. In the eleventh sub-mode, the car logo is constantly lit with a light blue light for 3 seconds, and in the twelfth sub-mode, the car logo is constantly lit with a light green light for 3 seconds.

[0183] For example, when the weather information meets the first condition, the control device adjusts the status of the power display function of the light-emitting device to a state where the power display function is disabled, and controls the light-emitting device to emit light in the eleventh sub-mode. That is, when the power display function of the light-emitting device is adjusted to a state where the power display function is disabled, the control device controls the car logo to be constantly lit with a light blue light for 3 seconds. In other words, when the weather information meets the first condition, the control device can adjust the power display function of the light-emitting device to a state where the power display function is disabled, and control the car logo to emit light in the eleventh sub-mode, so that the user can intuitively perceive through visualization that the power display function of the light-emitting device is in a state where the power display function is disabled, and that the power display function has been disabled (or disabled), thereby understanding why the user's tapping or pressing operation cannot make the light-emitting device display the power.

[0184] For example, when the weather data meets the second condition, the control device adjusts the waveform similarity threshold corresponding to the power display function of the light-emitting device to the fourth waveform similarity threshold, and controls the light-emitting device to emit light in the twelfth sub-mode. That is, when the waveform similarity threshold corresponding to the power display function of the light-emitting device is adjusted to the fourth waveform similarity threshold, the control device controls the car logo to be constantly lit with a light green light for 3 seconds. In other words, when the weather data meets the second condition, the control device can raise the waveform similarity threshold corresponding to the power display function of the light-emitting device and control the car logo to emit light in the twelfth sub-mode, so that the user can intuitively perceive the status of the power display function of the light-emitting device through visualization, thereby understanding why the user's operation cannot make the light-emitting device display the power, prompting the user to need to tap more accurately (such as with greater force) to make the light-emitting device display the power.

[0185] It should be noted that only four sub-patterns are used as examples here. The information in each sub-pattern is only one possible example. In actual use, there are many more possible designs for the number and content of sub-patterns. That is, the number and content of sub-patterns can be expanded, which does not constitute a limitation on this application.

[0186] In some possible implementations, the vehicle's status information includes the vehicle's speed, gear position, central locking information, and the status of the vehicle's indicator light displaying the battery level. When the vehicle speed is greater than 0, the gear position indicates the gear is not park, or the central locking information indicates the central locking is locked, the control device cannot adjust the battery level indicator based on the first operation and the vehicle's status information. Since adjusting the battery level indicator by tapping or pressing while the vehicle is in motion could be dangerous, the control device cannot adjust the battery level indicator based on the first operation and the vehicle's status information when the vehicle is not stationary. Since the vehicle may be locked because the owner has left the vehicle, to ensure vehicle safety and prevent unauthorized control, the control device cannot adjust the battery level indicator based on the first operation and the vehicle's status information.

[0187] It should be noted that the above examples illustrate multiple lighting modes, each matching a corresponding vehicle function. The matching relationship is not limited; for example, the lighting mode corresponding to the hatch function and the lighting mode corresponding to the automatic parking function can be interchanged. That is, the lighting mode corresponding to the hatch function can change from mode one to mode two, and the lighting mode corresponding to the automatic parking function can change from mode two to mode one. Furthermore, the lighting modes illustrated above are only some possible examples. In actual use, the number and content of lighting modes can be designed in many more ways; that is, the number and content of lighting modes are expandable and do not constitute a limitation of this application.

[0188] The application scenarios of the embodiments of this application have been described above. The method flow of the embodiments of this application is described below.

[0189] Please see Figure 7 , Figure 7 This is a schematic flowchart illustrating a control method provided in an embodiment of this application. Optionally, this method is applied to a device with control capabilities, such as... Figure 1 The control device 10 shown may be a software and / or hardware module within the control device 10. For ease of description, the following description will take the control device as the executing entity.

[0190] like Figure 7 The control methods shown include S701 and S702. S701 and S702 are detailed below:

[0191] S701, the control device acquires the first information.

[0192] The first information includes perceived operational information and vehicle status information. For example, the first information may include perceived data obtained from sensors within the vehicle where the control unit is located; this perceived data is used to indicate the user's first action. There are various possible designs for the types of sensors in the vehicle.

[0193] Based on Design 1 above, the sensors in the vehicle include a first vibration sensor (such as...) Figure 1 The vibration sensors 30A and 30B shown are described. The first vibration sensor can detect vibrations on the vehicle's hood. The operation information includes first vibration data from the first vibration sensor, which is used to instruct the user to perform actions such as tapping the hood.

[0194] Combining with Design 2 above, the sensors in the vehicle include a second vibration sensor (such as one embedded in the vehicle emblem) Figure 2 The vibration sensor shown (2015) can detect vibrations on the car logo. The operation information includes second vibration data from the second vibration sensor, which is used to instruct the user to perform actions such as tapping the car logo.

[0195] Based on Design 3 above, the sensors in the vehicle include pressure sensors (such as...) Figure 2 The pressure sensor shown is 2014. The pressure sensor can be installed in the car emblem. The pressure sensor can detect the pressure on the car emblem. The operation information includes pressure data from the pressure sensor. The pressure data is used to instruct the user to perform operations such as pressing the car emblem.

[0196] Alternatively, the above-mentioned designs can be combined with each other; for example, the second vibration sensor and pressure sensor in the car logo can be integrated together, for example, using piezoelectric ceramics (such as...). Figure 2 The piezoelectric ceramic (2016) can detect the pressure on the car logo and the vibration on the car logo. The operating information includes pressure data and / or second vibration data from the piezoelectric ceramic.

[0197] The vehicle status information includes at least one of the following: vehicle speed, vehicle gear information, vehicle central locking information, current status of the vehicle's hood function, weather information, current status of the vehicle's automatic parking function, whether the user has the key, current status of the vehicle's voice interaction function, user's voice messages, current status of the battery level display function, and vehicle charging status.

[0198] In another possible implementation, the vehicle's status information also includes user-inputted voice information, touch operation information, and button operation information. For example, the control device is connected to a microphone sensor, which can acquire user-inputted voice information and provide it to the control device. The control device can acquire the user-inputted voice information, which constitutes the vehicle's status information. For instance, the voice information acquired by the control device might be "Open the hood." As another example, the user inputs the vehicle's status information via touch operation; that is, the vehicle's status information includes user-inputted touch operation information, such as dragging, pulling, tugging, or text input. For example, the operator (e.g., the user) opens the hood by clicking a control on the interface via touch operation. As yet another example, the user inputs the vehicle's status information via button operation; that is, the vehicle's status information includes user-inputted button operation information, such as pressing a button, clicking a button, or rotating a knob. For example, the operator (e.g., the user) opens the hood by pressing a button.

[0199] S702, the control device adjusts the state of the vehicle's functions according to the first information and controls the vehicle's lighting device to emit light in the target mode.

[0200] The luminous device includes at least one of the following: a vehicle emblem, a vehicle light, or a display device, for example, the luminous device is... Figure 1 The light-emitting device 20 shown.

[0201] The target mode is associated with the function of the vehicle being adjusted. For example, the target mode is one of several illumination modes of the illuminating device, each illumination mode corresponding to one vehicle function. The illuminating device illuminates in the target mode to indicate the function of the vehicle being adjusted. For example, in scenario 1, the illuminating device illuminates in the first mode to indicate that the function of the vehicle being adjusted is the hatch function. As another example, in scenario 2, the illuminating device illuminates in the second mode to indicate that the function of the vehicle being adjusted is the automatic parking function.

[0202] The vehicle's functions include at least one of the following: hatch function, automatic parking function, voice interaction function, battery level indicator function, vehicle lock function, intelligent safety function (such as Sentry Mode), and air conditioning function. The hatch function's status includes hatch open, hatch closed, and hatch adjustment disabled. The vehicle lock function's status includes lock and unlock. The automatic parking function's status includes automatic parking on and off. The voice interaction function's status includes voice interaction on and off. The intelligent safety function's status includes intelligent safety function on and off, for example, Sentry Mode on and off. The air conditioning function's status includes natural wind mode on, rapid heating mode on, or rapid cooling mode on.

[0203] The following describes several possible implementations of a control device that adjusts the state of the vehicle's functions based on first information and controls the vehicle's logo to emit light in a target mode.

[0204] Implementation 1: The sensor includes a first vibration sensor, which can detect vibrations on the vehicle's hood. The operation information includes first vibration data from the first vibration sensor, which is used to instruct the user to perform operations such as tapping the hood.

[0205] Based on Scenario 1 above, the control device determines the first operation to be two taps based on the operation information. Based on the first operation and the vehicle's status information, the control device determines the function of the vehicle being adjusted to be the hatch function and the status of the hatch function adjustment, and controls the lighting device to emit light in the first mode.

[0206] Based on scenario 4 above, the control device determines the first operation to be a single tap based on the operation information. Then, based on the first operation and the vehicle's status information, the control device determines that the function of the vehicle being adjusted is the power display function of the light-emitting device and adjusts the status of this function. Finally, it controls the light-emitting device to illuminate in the fourth mode.

[0207] Implementation 2: The sensor includes a pressure sensor, which can be installed in the car emblem. The pressure sensor can detect the pressure on the car emblem. The operation information includes pressure data from the pressure sensor, which is used to instruct the user to perform operations such as pressing the car emblem.

[0208] Based on Scenario 1 above, the control device determines the first operation to be a short press based on the operation information. Based on the first operation and the vehicle's status information, the control device determines the function of the vehicle being adjusted to be the hatch function and the status of adjusting the hatch function, and controls the lighting device to emit light in the first mode.

[0209] Based on scenario 2 above, the control device determines whether the first operation is a long press or a hard press according to the operation information. Based on the first operation and the vehicle's status information, the control device determines that the function being adjusted is the automatic parking function and adjusts the status of the automatic parking function, and controls the lighting device to illuminate in the second mode.

[0210] Based on scenario 3 above, the control device determines whether the first operation is a long press or a hard press according to the operation information. Based on the first operation and the vehicle's status information, the control device determines that the function of the vehicle being adjusted is the voice interaction function and the status of adjusting the voice interaction function, and controls the light-emitting device to emit light in the third mode.

[0211] Based on scenario 4 above, the control device determines the first operation to be a light press according to the operation information. Based on the first operation and the vehicle's status information, the control device determines that the function of the vehicle being adjusted is the power display function of the light-emitting device and adjusts the status of the power display function, and controls the light-emitting device to emit light in the fourth mode.

[0212] In implementation 3, the sensor includes a second vibration sensor, which can detect vibrations on the car logo. The operation information includes second vibration data from the second vibration sensor, which is used to instruct the user to perform actions such as tapping the car logo.

[0213] Based on Scenario 1 above, the control device determines the first operation to be two taps based on the operation information. Based on the first operation and the vehicle's status information, the control device determines the function of the vehicle being adjusted to be the hatch function and the status of the hatch function adjustment, and controls the lighting device to emit light in the first mode.

[0214] Based on scenario 4 above, the control device determines the first operation to be a single tap based on the operation information. Then, based on the first operation and the vehicle's status information, the control device determines that the function of the vehicle being adjusted is the power display function of the light-emitting device and adjusts the status of this function. Finally, it controls the light-emitting device to illuminate in the fourth mode.

[0215] The above scenarios and implementation examples illustrate how the control device adjusts the vehicle's hood function, automatic parking function, voice interaction function, and battery level display function based on operation information, as well as the illumination modes of the corresponding illumination devices for each function. The following example describes how the control device adjusts the vehicle's lock function, intelligent safety functions (such as sentry mode), and air conditioning function based on operation information, as well as the illumination modes of the corresponding illumination devices for each function.

[0216] In some possible implementations, the control device determines the first operation as three taps based on the operation information. Based on the first operation and the vehicle's status information, the control device determines the function of the vehicle being adjusted as the vehicle's lock function and the state of the vehicle's lock function, and controls the luminous device to emit light in a fifth mode. For example, if the waveform similarity between the waveform of the first vibration data (or the waveform of the second vibration data) and the third target waveform is greater than the fifth waveform similarity threshold, the control device determines the first operation as three taps. The third target waveform can be a preset target waveform, such as the waveform of the vibration data when the user's hand taps the hood three times. The fifth waveform similarity threshold is a set waveform similarity threshold, which can be flexibly set based on the actual scenario, such as 70%, 70%, etc. The fifth mode is one of several luminous modes of the luminous device. The fifth mode corresponds to the vehicle lock function. The fifth mode includes at least one of the following: the luminous color of the luminous device, the luminous duration of the luminous device, or the flashing frequency of the luminous device. Optionally, the fifth mode can be a luminous mode corresponding to the hood function preset at the vehicle's factory, for example, the fifth mode includes the vehicle logo flashing orange light for 3 seconds at a flashing frequency of 1.5Hz, etc. Alternatively, the fifth mode can also be determined based on user input information, that is, it supports user-defined light emission modes, such as user-defined light emission color, light emission duration, or flashing frequency of the light emission device in the fifth mode.

[0217] Optionally, the vehicle status information includes at least one of the following: vehicle speed, vehicle gear position, vehicle central locking information, and the current status of the vehicle's locking function. For example, when the vehicle speed is 0, the gear position information indicates the gear is park, and the central locking information indicates the central locking is unlocked, if the current vehicle locking function is in the off state, the control device, based on the first operation and the vehicle status information, adjusts the locking function status from off to on, and controls the luminous device to illuminate in the fifth mode. As another example, when the vehicle speed is 0, the gear position information indicates the gear is park, and the central locking information indicates the central locking is unlocked, if the current vehicle locking function is on, the control device, based on the first operation and the vehicle status information, adjusts the locking function status from on to off, and controls the luminous device to illuminate in the fifth mode. In other words, when the user taps the door three times, the control device can open or close the car lock based on the vibration data from the vibration sensor, and control the car logo to light up in the fifth mode, so that the user can intuitively perceive the status of the car lock function through visualization.

[0218] Similarly, vehicle status information also includes weather information. If the weather information meets the first condition, the control device adjusts the lock function to a state where adjustment of the lock function is prohibited. If the weather information meets the second condition, the control device adjusts the waveform similarity threshold corresponding to the lock function to the sixth waveform similarity threshold, which is greater than the fifth waveform similarity threshold. In other words, the control device can increase the waveform similarity threshold corresponding to the lock function based on weather information.

[0219] Optionally, the fifth mode corresponding to the vehicle lock function may differ in different states. For example, the fifth mode includes at least two sub-modes, and at least one of the following differs: the color of the light emitted by the light-emitting device, the duration of the light emitted by the light-emitting device, or the flashing frequency of the light-emitting device. For instance, the sub-mode corresponding to when the vehicle lock function is set to "disable adjustment of the vehicle lock function state" is different from the sub-mode corresponding to when the waveform similarity threshold corresponding to the vehicle lock function is adjusted to the sixth waveform similarity threshold.

[0220] In some other possible implementations, the control device determines whether the first operation is a long press or a hard press based on the operation information. Based on the first operation and the vehicle's status information, the control device determines that the function of the vehicle being adjusted is the vehicle's intelligent safety function and adjusts the state of the intelligent safety function, and controls the light-emitting device to emit light in a sixth mode. The sixth mode is one of several light-emitting modes of the light-emitting device. The sixth mode corresponds to the intelligent safety function. The sixth mode includes at least one of the following: the light-emitting color of the light-emitting device, the light-emitting duration of the light-emitting device, or the flashing frequency of the light-emitting device. Optionally, the sixth mode can be a light-emitting mode corresponding to the hood function preset at the factory, for example, the sixth mode includes the car logo flashing light in light purple for 3 seconds at a flashing frequency of 1.5Hz. Alternatively, the sixth mode can also be determined based on user input information, i.e., it supports user-defined light-emitting modes, such as user-defined light-emitting color, light-emitting duration, or flashing frequency of the light-emitting device in the sixth mode.

[0221] Optionally, the vehicle status information includes at least one of the following: vehicle speed, vehicle gear position, vehicle central locking information, and the current status of the vehicle's intelligent safety functions. For example, when the vehicle speed is 0, the gear position information indicates the gear is park, and the central locking information indicates the central locking is unlocked, if the current status of the vehicle's intelligent safety functions is disabled, the control device, based on the first operation and the vehicle status information, adjusts the status of the intelligent safety functions from disabled to enabled, and controls the luminous device to illuminate in a sixth mode. As another example, when the vehicle speed is 0, the gear position information indicates the gear is park, and the central locking information indicates the central locking is unlocked, if the current status of the vehicle's intelligent safety functions is enabled, the control device, based on the first operation and the vehicle status information, adjusts the status of the intelligent safety functions from enabled to disabled, and controls the luminous device to illuminate in a sixth mode. In other words, when a user presses and holds the button, the control device can turn the smart safety function on or off based on the pressure data from the pressure sensor, and control the car logo to light up in the sixth mode, allowing the user to intuitively perceive the status of the smart safety function through visualization.

[0222] Optionally, the sixth mode corresponding to the smart security function may differ depending on the state. For example, the sixth mode includes at least two sub-modes, where at least one of the following differs: the color of the light emitted by the light-emitting device, the duration of light emission, or the flashing frequency of the light-emitting device. For instance, the sub-mode corresponding to when the smart security function is set to the "on" state is different from the sub-mode corresponding to when the smart security function is set to the "off" state.

[0223] In some other possible implementations, the control device determines the first operation as a long press or a hard press based on the operation information. Based on the first operation and the vehicle's status information, the control device determines that the function to be adjusted is the vehicle's air conditioning function and the state of the air conditioning function, and controls the light-emitting device to emit light in a seventh mode. The seventh mode is one of several light-emitting modes of the light-emitting device. The seventh mode corresponds to the air conditioning function. The seventh mode includes at least one of the following: the light-emitting color of the light-emitting device, the light-emitting duration of the light-emitting device, or the flashing frequency of the light-emitting device. Optionally, the seventh mode can be a light-emitting mode corresponding to the hood function preset at the factory, for example, the seventh mode includes the car logo flashing brown light for 3 seconds at a flashing frequency of 1.5Hz. Alternatively, the seventh mode can also be determined based on user input information, i.e., it supports user-defined light-emitting modes, such as user-defined light-emitting color, light-emitting duration, or flashing frequency of the light-emitting device in the seventh mode.

[0224] Optionally, the vehicle status information includes at least one of the following: vehicle speed, vehicle gear position, vehicle central locking information, and the current status of the vehicle's air conditioning function. For example, when the vehicle speed is 0, the gear position information indicates the gear is park, and the central locking information indicates the central locking is unlocked, if the current status of the vehicle's air conditioning function is off, the control device, based on the first operation and the vehicle status information, adjusts the air conditioning function from off to on, and controls the illuminating device to illuminate in the seventh mode. As another example, when the vehicle speed is 0, the gear position information indicates the gear is park, and the central locking information indicates the central locking is unlocked, if the current status of the vehicle's air conditioning function is on, the control device, based on the first operation and the vehicle status information, adjusts the air conditioning function from on to off, and controls the illuminating device to illuminate in the seventh mode. In other words, when the user presses and holds the button, the control device can turn the air conditioning function on or off based on the pressure data from the pressure sensor, and control the car logo to light up in the seventh mode, so that the user can intuitively perceive the status of the air conditioning function through visualization.

[0225] Optionally, the seventh mode corresponding to the air conditioning function may differ depending on the state. For example, the seventh mode includes at least two sub-modes, and at least one of the following is different: the color of the light emitted by the light-emitting device, the duration of the light emitted by the light-emitting device, or the flashing frequency of the light-emitting device. For instance, the sub-modes corresponding to the air conditioning function being adjusted to the air conditioning function on state, the air conditioning function being adjusted to the air conditioning function off state, the air conditioning function being adjusted to the rapid cooling mode on state, the air conditioning function being adjusted to the rapid heating mode on state, and the air conditioning function being adjusted to the natural wind mode on state are all different from each other.

[0226] It should be noted that the first operation for the aforementioned automatic parking, voice interaction, intelligent safety, and air conditioning functions is illustrated using a long press or heavy press as examples. In actual use, the first operation for these functions can have more variations; for example, each function may have a different first operation, or at least two functions may have the same first operation. When a vehicle has multiple functions corresponding to a particular first operation, the function can be determined based on the user's input. For example, the long press or heavy press corresponds to the automatic parking, voice interaction, intelligent safety, and air conditioning functions. The user can customize the settings to set the function corresponding to the long press to automatic parking. When the user long presses, the control device can activate the automatic parking function based on the pressure data from the pressure sensor and control the vehicle logo to illuminate in a second mode, allowing the user to visually perceive the status of the automatic parking function. At this time, the functions of other vehicles will not be adjusted. For example, users can customize the settings to set the function of the corresponding vehicle to voice interaction when pressed hard. When the user presses hard, the control device can turn on the voice interaction function based on the pressure data of the pressure sensor and control the car logo to light up in the third mode, so that the user can intuitively perceive the status of the voice interaction function through visualization. At this time, the functions of other vehicles will not be adjusted.

[0227] The above examples illustrate various lighting modes, each matched with a corresponding vehicle function. The matching relationship is not limited; for instance, the lighting mode corresponding to the hatch function and the lighting mode corresponding to the automatic parking function can be interchanged. That is, the lighting mode corresponding to the hatch function changes from mode one to mode two, and the lighting mode corresponding to the automatic parking function changes from mode two to mode one. Furthermore, the lighting modes and vehicle functions illustrated above are only some possible examples. In actual use, the number and content of lighting modes, the vehicle functions, and the matching relationship between lighting modes and vehicle functions can be designed in many more ways. In other words, the number and content of lighting modes are expandable, and the vehicle functions are expandable, which does not constitute a limitation of this application.

[0228] In some possible implementations, the vehicle's status information also includes user-inputted voice information, touch operation information, and button operation information. For example, the control device can adjust the state of the vehicle's functions based on the vehicle's status information and control the vehicle's lighting devices to emit light in a target mode. For instance, if the vehicle's status information includes user-inputted voice information, such as "open the hood," the control device will adjust the hood function to the hood-open state based on the voice information and control the lighting devices to emit light in a first mode. The control methods for touch operation information and button operation information are similar to those for voice information, and will not be exemplified here.

[0229] In other possible implementations, if the control device does not receive the first information, the light-emitting device is configured to emit light in a target mode in response to the adjustment of the vehicle's function state. The target mode is the light-emitting mode corresponding to the adjusted vehicle function. In this case, the control device does not adjust the vehicle's function state based on the first information, but instead controls the light-emitting device to emit light in the light-emitting mode corresponding to the adjusted vehicle function when it detects that the vehicle's function state has been adjusted. For example, when the control device detects that the hood function state has been adjusted to a hood-open state, it controls the light-emitting device to emit light in the first mode corresponding to the hood function.

[0230] exist Figure 7 In the illustrated embodiment, the control device can adjust the state of the vehicle's functions through the user's first operation and map the state of the functions to changes in the light emitted by the light-emitting device. This eliminates the need for the user to view the function's state using additional equipment. The adjusted function's state is visually presented through visual signals such as the light-emitting area of ​​the light-emitting device, the displayed numbers, the light color, the duration of illumination, and the flashing frequency. Users can intuitively perceive the vehicle's current state, improving operational safety, enhancing the intuitiveness of information feedback, reducing the user's learning curve, and increasing the efficiency of the user's perception of the vehicle's state, thus improving the user experience. Furthermore, in complex scenarios, such as strong light or noisy environments, the light feedback has strong penetration, preventing information feedback failure due to unclear screen text or inaudible audio, thereby improving the effectiveness and stability of information transmission.
