[0024] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only 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 are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0025] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments of the present invention and the features therein can be combined with each other.

[0026] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, but they are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0027] A smart sensor, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, it includes a box body 1 that is detachably connected to the vehicle center console, and the box body 1 is provided with:

[0028] The thermal infrared sensor chip 2 is arranged on the front side of the box body 1;

[0029] The tank body 5 is provided on the front side of the box body 1, and the bottom surface of the tank body 5 has a charging induction area 6;

[0030] The inductive communication chip 10 is located in the box body 1 and connected to the charging inductive area 6;

[0031] The controller 11 is located in the box body 1 and is connected to the thermal infrared sensor chip 2 to receive infrared signals and the inductive communication chip 10 to receive communication signals;

[0032] The first knob 3 and the second knob 4 are arranged on the front side of the box body 1 and connected to the controller 11 .

[0033] In a preferred embodiment, an encoder 12 connected to the controller 11 is provided in the first knob 3 , and the controller 11 receives a coding signal output by the encoder 12 .

[0034] Specifically, in the present invention, the first knob 3 is a function selection button, which is responsible for selecting the current function mode, such as air conditioning, audio, telephone, etc. The encoder 12 is used to detect the position of the first knob 3, and convert the rotation angle of the first knob 3 into a digital coding signal, and transmit it to the controller 11. The controller 11 identifies the selected function based on these coding signals, and then transmits the selection signal of the first knob 3 to the vehicle electronic system. The vehicle electronic system parses and determines the currently selected function mode.

[0035] In a preferred embodiment, a potentiometer 13 connected to the controller 11 is provided in the second knob 4 , and the controller 11 receives a potential signal output by the potentiometer 13 .

[0036] Specifically, the second knob 4 is responsible for adjusting the parameters of the selected function, such as air-conditioning temperature, audio volume, etc.

[0037] The second knob 4 is connected to the controller 11 using a potentiometer 13. By rotating the second knob 4, the resistance value of the potentiometer 13 is changed, thereby changing the voltage or current to generate a potential signal. After the potential signal is transmitted to the control chip, the corresponding functional parameters are adjusted; for example, if the first knob 3 selects the air conditioning function, the second knob 4 will be used to adjust the temperature of the air conditioner; if the first knob 3 selects the audio function, the second knob 4 will be used to adjust the volume of the audio.

[0038] In other embodiments, the second knob 4 may also use an encoder 12 to measure the position of the knob. The digital signal output by the encoder 12 indicates the rotation degree of the second knob 4, and the control chip adjusts the function parameters according to the signal.

[0039] Preferably, the first knob 3 and the second knob 4 separate function selection and parameter adjustment, thereby simplifying the operation of the user interface and achieving flexible control of vehicle functions.

[0040] In a preferred embodiment, the bottom of the first knob 3 is connected to a first motor 14, the controller 11 outputs a first driving signal according to the thermal infrared signal, and the first motor 14 drives the first knob 3 to move linearly according to the first driving signal.

[0041] Specifically, the thermal infrared sensor chip 2 detects the presence of an object by detecting infrared radiation emitted by it. In the present invention, the thermal infrared sensor chip 2 senses the heat of a human body. When the sensor detects a person in the driver's seat, the control chip sends a first drive signal to activate the first motor 14, causing the first knob 3 to pop out. When no one is in the driver's seat, the control chip sends a first drive signal to drive the first motor 14 to retract the first knob 3.

[0042] First knob 3 only appears when the user approaches, eliminating physical interference and space usage, enhancing intuitive and convenient operation. When not in use, first knob 3 retracts, contributing to a neater interior design and more efficient space utilization. The hidden knob design also adds a modern and premium feel to the interior. Concealed when not in use, it reduces wear and damage, improving component durability.

[0043] In a preferred embodiment, the bottom of the second knob 4 is connected to a second motor 15 , the controller 11 outputs a second driving signal according to the coding signal, and the second motor 15 drives the second knob 4 to move linearly according to the second driving signal.

[0044] Specifically, when the first knob 3 is switched to a function capable of adjusting parameters, the control chip recognizes it and outputs a second drive signal to drive the second motor 15 to pop out the second knob 4. For example, when the first knob 3 is switched to the air-conditioning function, the second knob 4 pops out, and the user changes the air-conditioning temperature by turning the second knob 4; when the first knob 3 is switched to the call function, the second knob 4 is retracted, and the user cannot turn the second knob 4; through the linear motion driven by the second motor 15, the second knob 4 can move smoothly, and combined with the function selection of the first knob 3, the knob can be hidden when not in use, assisting the user in determining whether it is the required function selection, and retracting the second knob 4 when the function parameters do not need to be changed to reduce user misoperation.

[0045] In a preferred embodiment, the charging induction area 6 can be controllably connected to an external mobile device to output a charging connection signal, the induction communication chip 10 establishes wireless communication with the mobile device based on the charging connection signal and outputs a verification signal, and the controller 11 outputs a start signal to the external vehicle electronic system based on the verification signal.

[0046] Specifically, the intelligent sensor of the present invention has a self-starting function. When a user places a mobile device, such as a mobile phone, on the charging induction area 6 in the slot 5, wireless charging of the mobile device is realized. After wireless charging is established, the induction communication chip 10 receives the charging connection signal and establishes wireless communication with the mobile device. At this time, the induction communication chip 10 and the mobile device communicate through radio for pairing verification. When the identity recognition and verification of the mobile device is successful, a verification signal is output. The controller 11 outputs a start signal to the external vehicle electronic system according to the verification signal, thereby realizing the self-starting function of the vehicle.

[0047] In a preferred embodiment, a light bar is further provided on the front side of the box body 1 , and the light bar is connected to the controller 11 .

[0048] In a preferred embodiment, the light strip includes a first light strip 7 located above the slot body 5 and a second light strip 8 located below the slot body 5. The controller 11 receives a coded signal to output a first light-emitting signal to drive the first light strip 7; the controller 11 receives a potential signal to output a second light-emitting signal to drive the second light strip 8.

[0049] Specifically, the light bar is used to indicate the position of the slot 5, especially in low-light conditions or at night. The color of the first light bar 7 corresponds to the function selected by the first knob 3. For example, the air conditioning function is blue, and the audio function is purple. This provides an immediate and clear visual prompt, enhancing the interactivity and intelligence of the device.

[0050] In a preferred embodiment, the rear side of the box body 1 is provided with an interface for connecting to the vehicle electronic system.

[0051] Specifically, the interface design uses a quick-release connector and a fixing device, so that the present invention can be installed and disassembled in a modular manner. The quick-release device includes a lock or a snap. When designing the vehicle center console, a dedicated interface for connecting the sensor of the present invention and a slot for placing the box body 1 are specially reserved.

[0052] In a preferred embodiment, sliders 9 for inserting into the center console of a vehicle are provided on both sides of the box body 1 .

[0053] Specifically, the slot of the vehicle's center console is designed with a slide groove corresponding to the slider 9. When installing the box body 1, first connect the interface on the rear side of the box body 1 to complete the electrical connection between the box body 1 and the vehicle, and then insert the slider 9 along the slide groove to embed the box body 1 into the slot to complete the installation of the box body 1.

[0054] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the implementation method and protection scope of the present invention. For those skilled in the art, it should be aware that all solutions obtained by equivalent substitutions and obvious changes made using the description and illustrations of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
