[0019] To make the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0020] The embodiment of the present invention provides a blind spot warning system for two-wheeled vehicles, comprising: a blind spot monitoring module, a mobile terminal, a vehicle-side instrument, and a Bluetooth headset. The blind spot monitoring module is used to monitor the position of the vehicle's blind spot and send the warning information generated corresponding to the target object detected in the vehicle's blind spot to the vehicle-side instrument or the mobile terminal; the mobile terminal is connected to the blind spot monitoring module via Bluetooth, and is used to determine whether the vehicle-side instrument supports active connection to the blind spot monitoring module, and according to the judgment result, sends the warning information output by the blind spot monitoring module to the vehicle-side instrument or receives the warning information output by the blind spot monitoring module obtained from the vehicle-side instrument; the vehicle-side instrument is connected to the mobile terminal via Bluetooth, and is used to send the warning information to the mobile terminal when the warning information output by the blind spot monitoring module is sent to the vehicle-side instrument; when the warning information output by the blind spot monitoring module is sent to the mobile terminal, the warning information sent from the mobile terminal is received; the Bluetooth headset is connected to the mobile terminal via Bluetooth, and is used to receive the warning information from the mobile terminal.

[0021] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present utility model, see Figure 1 As shown, the mobile terminal (mobile phone APP) connects the vehicle-side instrument (recorder / meter) and the blind spot monitoring module to be matched via Bluetooth; the user selects the vehicle-side instrument to be bound to the blind spot monitoring module via the mobile phone. The mobile phone APP inquires via Bluetooth whether the Bluetooth of the vehicle-side instrument to be bound supports active / direct connection to the blind spot monitoring module;

[0022] The first case: if the Bluetooth of the vehicle-side instrument supports active / direct connection to the blind spot monitoring module, the vehicle-side instrument obtains the warning information output by the blind spot monitoring module, and the vehicle-side instrument sends the warning information to the mobile terminal.

[0023] The second case: If the recorder / instrument Bluetooth does not support active / direct connection to the blind spot monitoring module, the mobile terminal obtains the warning information output by the blind spot monitoring module and sends it to the vehicle-side instrument, and the vehicle-side instrument receives the warning information sent from the mobile terminal.

[0024] So far, two Bluetooth networking modes have been formed. The first is that the vehicle-side instrument is used as the terminal, and the blind spot monitoring module and the mobile phone are connected at the same time; the second is that the mobile phone is used as the terminal, and the vehicle-side instrument and the blind spot detection module are connected at the same time; in addition, the mobile phone can also be connected to Bluetooth headsets to form a complete Bluetooth early warning network.

[0025] Therefore, this utility model, through an early warning system consisting of a blind spot monitoring module, a mobile device, a vehicle-side instrument, and a Bluetooth headset, overcomes the drawbacks of existing two-wheeled vehicle blind spot monitoring systems, which require complex wired installation and a single alarm method. Furthermore, the alarm sound played through the Bluetooth headset solves the problem of being unable to hear the vehicle-side instrument alarm due to loud noise during riding. Furthermore, the entire matching process intelligently selects a connection method based on the user's device support (determining whether the vehicle-side instrument supports active connection to the blind spot monitoring module), automatically establishing a Bluetooth early warning network without the user noticing.

[0026] Optionally, the mobile terminal is also used to obtain the Bluetooth MAC address of the blind spot monitoring module and transmit it to the vehicle-side instrument when it is determined that the vehicle-side instrument supports active connection to the blind spot monitoring module, and disconnect the Bluetooth connection with the blind spot monitoring module.

[0027] Optionally, the mobile terminal is further configured to, when it is determined that the vehicle-side instrument supports active connection to the blind spot monitoring module, obtain the warning information output by the blind spot monitoring module and send it to the mobile terminal.

[0028] For details, see also Figure 2 As shown, for the solution with the vehicle-side instrument as the terminal, the warning information of the blind spot detection module is transmitted to the vehicle-side instrument via Bluetooth, and an interface reminder is displayed for the warning information. At the same time, the data is transmitted to the mobile phone APP via Bluetooth, and the mobile phone plays the alarm audio synchronously and plays it through the Bluetooth headset.

[0029] Optionally, the mobile terminal is further used to obtain the warning information output by the blind spot monitoring module and send it to the vehicle-side instrument when it is determined that the vehicle-side instrument does not support active connection to the blind spot monitoring module.

[0030] For details, see also Figure 3As shown, for the solution with a mobile phone as the terminal, the warning information of the blind spot detection module is transmitted to the mobile phone via Bluetooth. After the mobile phone processes and analyzes the data, it plays the alarm audio via Bluetooth for the alarm information, and at the same time transmits the data to the vehicle-side instrument via Bluetooth. After receiving the data, the vehicle-side instrument displays a reminder on the vehicle-side instrument interface.

[0031] Optionally, the blind spot monitoring module includes an electrically connected millimeter wave radar and a Bluetooth MCU module;

[0032] Millimeter-wave radar, used to collect information about objects in the vehicle's blind spots;

[0033] The Bluetooth MCU module is connected to the mobile terminal and the vehicle-side instrument via Bluetooth, and is used to obtain the target object that needs warning based on the object information, and send the warning information generated corresponding to the target object to the vehicle-side instrument or mobile terminal.

[0034] Optionally, the blind spot monitoring module also includes a Bluetooth power module electrically connected to the millimeter wave radar and the Bluetooth MCU module, and the Bluetooth power module is used to power the millimeter wave radar and the Bluetooth MCU module.

[0035] For details, see also Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the millimeter wave radar module is responsible for collecting target data and transmitting the data to the Bluetooth MCU module through the serial port.

[0036] The Bluetooth MCU module is responsible for analyzing the data collected by the millimeter-wave radar module, filtering out targets that require alarms through calculations, and transmitting data such as the direction, distance, speed, and TTC (relative distance between the module and the target / relative speed between the module and the target) between the target and the millimeter-wave radar module to the instrument or mobile phone via Bluetooth. The Bluetooth power module is also responsible for powering the millimeter-wave radar module.

[0037] For module installation, users only need to fix the blind spot warning module at the rear of the vehicle and connect it to the vehicle battery to provide power.

[0038] Therefore, in order to improve the user experience, the utility model has developed a blind spot monitoring module. This module can build a Bluetooth network with the existing vehicle-side instrument, mobile phone APP and Bluetooth headset connected to the mobile phone. This solution adopts wireless connection and optimizes many limitations of wired connection. Not only the recorder / instrument interface will prompt the user, but the Bluetooth headset connected by the user will also prompt the user.

[0039] At the same time, since the old recorder / meter products only support passive Bluetooth connection and cannot actively connect to other devices' Bluetooth, the recorder / meter product of the present invention supports active connection to other Bluetooth devices; therefore, a solution has been developed to intelligently select the connection method by judging the connected recorder / meter device.

[0040] Therefore, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0041] 1. Through the combination of Bluetooth and millimeter wave radar, the blind spot warning module can use Bluetooth wireless transmission data, which greatly facilitates installation;

[0042] 2. It can form a Bluetooth network consisting of two-wheeled vehicle recorders / meters, supporting mobile phone APP, user headphones, and blind spot monitoring modules;

[0043] 3. It can intelligently judge the currently connected recorder / meter and select the connection method suitable for the user.
