Description

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of providing a retreat for temporary recreation for a person. A method is proposed for providing the retreat space. For this purpose, a vehicle is modified and adapted accordingly. With the introduction of autonomous driving, it is even possible to rent the vehicle specifically for this purpose. The invention further relates to a correspondingly designed vehicle.

[0002] The modern world of work is changing. Fixed working hours with precisely scheduled breaks are becoming rarer. Employees are required to be as flexible as possible. Office spaces are also being designed differently. In some cases, the trend is returning to open-plan offices. Many employees are given the opportunity to work from home for one or more days. Others have to share a pool of rooms that can be used flexibly from day to day. Furthermore, there is a growing realization that well-rested employees can be more productive. Employees are therefore allowed to take short breaks when needed. This applies particularly to employees who work in offices. But it can also be permitted for factory workers. Often, factory workers' break rooms are overcrowded, making it impossible to relax and unwind according to their individual needs.

[0003] Overall, there is a need for improved recreational opportunities for company employees as well as for other individuals, such as the self-employed, students, private individuals, etc. The invention is based on the idea of ​​providing individual recreational space. In this regard, it is proposed to use a vehicle as an individual recreational space.

[0004] DE 10 2015 209 603 A1 discloses a device for performing light therapy in a vehicle. The device comprises lighting devices installed in the vehicle and a control unit. The control unit is designed to control the lighting devices for performing the light therapy in the vehicle. Various light therapies can be set. These include special lighting settings for a so-called sleep scenario, which differ from a so-called wake-up scenario in terms of the color and intensity of the light.

[0005] EP 2 840 000 A2 discloses a method for operating a driver assistance system designed for automatic driving by intervening in the engine control, a transmission, and a braking system of a motor vehicle. A driver activates a sleep mode in which at least one vehicle component is controlled to allow the driver to rest or sleep comfortably. The light sources in the vehicle interior are dimmed or switched off. Likewise, the driver's seat and / or steering wheel can be adjusted to a more comfortable position for the driver.

[0006] US 2015 / 0 094 896 A1 discloses a vehicle equipped as an autonomous vehicle. The vehicle is equipped with an entertainment electronics system designed to present media content on a large display while the vehicle is driving autonomously. The person in the driver's seat can also view this media content. If the vehicle is manually controlled, the media content is played on a different display so that the driver is not disturbed by the playback.

[0007] A management system for vehicle rentals is known from DE 10 2013 222 421 A1. The system allows an owner to create a customer profile with information related to a rentable vehicle. The potential temporary user can request a specific vehicle for rental, and the system can provide a list of vehicles that match this request.

[0008] DE 10 2016 011 857 A1 describes a method for automatically delivering a consignment of goods to a vehicle. To identify the vehicle to be delivered, a comparison is made between the current position of the vehicle and the current position of a mobile unit. A communication connection is established between the vehicle and the mobile unit, and / or an identification feature of the vehicle is recorded using the mobile unit. The delivery service can then be navigated to the vehicle. Furthermore, a security authorization credential for this specific vehicle can be transmitted to the delivery service so that a specified area of ​​the vehicle can be unlocked for delivery to the vehicle.

[0009] The document "Rent A Limo," dated September 4, 2018; URL: https: / / web.archive.org / web / 201809004043933 / https: / / www.rent-a-limo.net, describes various models of stretch limos with different features that are available for rent.

[0010] US 5 917 405 A describes a control unit for a vehicle comprising a first control device. The first control device generates and transmits a first signal for activating, deactivating, activating, and deactivating a vehicle component, a vehicle device, a vehicle system, or a vehicle subsystem. The first control unit is located on the vehicle. The first control unit responds to a second signal, wherein the second signal is either generated by or transmitted by a second control unit. The second control unit is located at a location remote from the vehicle. The second control unit responds to a third signal, wherein the third signal is either generated by or transmitted by a third control unit. The third control device is located at a location remote from the vehicle and from the second control device.

[0011] US 2015 / 0 094 896 A1 describes a vehicle system with an autonomous operation controller that controls a vehicle in an autonomous mode and an entertainment system controller that presents media content while the vehicle is operating in autonomous mode. The entertainment system operates a projection screen in a passenger compartment of the vehicle and activates a projector to project media content onto the projection screen.

[0012] In addition, there is a need to improve the use of a vehicle as an individual recreational space not only during the journey, but also for those seeking recreation who do not have access to a suitable recreational space.

[0013] The invention aims to find such an approach.

[0014] This object is achieved by a method for providing a retreat space for temporary recreation of a person according to claim 1 and a vehicle according to claim 10 for use in the method.

[0015] The dependent claims contain advantageous developments and improvements of the invention according to the following description of these measures.

[0016] As mentioned, one idea is to temporarily provide a vehicle as a retreat for a person seeking relaxation.

[0017] In one embodiment, the invention consists in a method for providing a retreat space for the temporary relaxation of a person, wherein a request message is sent to a vehicle with which the vehicle is requested as a retreat space for the person, wherein the vehicle interior is configured at least in terms of lighting and / or climate control and / or entertainment technology at the reserved time in accordance with the request message so that it contributes to the relaxation of the person as a retreat space, wherein the heart rate and / or eye movements and / or skin resistance of the person are measured by measuring instruments installed on the vehicle, and wherein the values ​​measured by the measuring instruments are tracked and evaluated by a portable device of the person in order to make the success of the relaxation visible to the person.The portable device tracks and evaluates the client's state of relaxation using vital signs such as pulse and heart rate to indicate to the client whether the desired relaxation has been achieved. Appropriate accessories are available for the devices to record the relevant data.

[0018] In another variant, a reservation message is sent from a service provider to the vehicle, which has previously received the request message from the person. The reservation message allocates one of the available vehicles in the service provider's fleet to the requesting customer and configures it in the same way as the request message sent directly to the vehicle.

[0019] In the vehicle, the customer is then immersed in a new world where they can relax, supported by music, climate control, visual displays (e.g., via displays, a projector using the roof lining as a projection surface, etc.), and lighting. The person can assume a relaxing sitting position and relax with a massage. Heart rate, eye movements, and / or skin resistance are measured to visualize the success of the relaxation. This is done using on-board measuring instruments.

[0020] In a particularly practical variant, the request message is transmitted to the vehicle via a mobile radio transmission system or another wireless communication system. The other wireless communication system can be a WLAN radio communication system, corresponding to wireless LAN.

[0021] The request message can conveniently be sent from a personal portable device of the person seeking recreation. Such a portable device can be a smartphone, a tablet computer, or a laptop or notebook computer.

[0022] The person can go to their own appropriately equipped vehicle for relaxation. However, an appropriately equipped vehicle can also be rented by a person on demand for specific relaxation. The user can select their own relaxation world as a possible ambience for relaxation. For this purpose, it is advantageous if the request message contains information about a desired time period and, optionally, a location where the vehicle should be kept for the desired period. Information about a set ambience could also be included. For example, pictures or videos from the last vacation could be played. The person's favorite music could also be played. The vehicle thus becomes an oasis of relaxation.

[0023] The vehicle then drives autonomously to the agreed meeting point, and the person climbs in and enters a new world. The vehicle can remain stationary in one location the entire time or even travel a distance. The vehicle does not have to be owned by the person; it can also simply be rented from a provider. Such providers could be commercial rental car providers, car-sharing providers, or mobility service providers.

[0024] For a vehicle for use in the proposed method, it is advantageous if the vehicle is equipped with a lighting unit for illuminating the interior according to the requested ambience, and / or with an entertainment electronics unit for reproducing images, videos and / or music according to the ambience; and / or with an air conditioning unit for air conditioning the vehicle interior according to the requested ambience.

[0025] The vehicle is also equipped with an on-board connectivity unit. This enables the reception of messages via mobile communications or another wireless communication system. This allows the described request message to be received. This allows the vehicle to individually prepare for the customer's needs, for example, by preconfiguring the interior climate in terms of temperature, fragrance, humidity, or air quality.

[0026] It is also advantageous if the air conditioning unit is equipped with a fragrance generator, which creates a scent in the vehicle interior according to the desired ambience. This can also stimulate the occupant's sense of smell for relaxation.

[0027] Accordingly, it is advantageous if the entertainment electronics unit is equipped with a number of display devices on which the images and / or videos in the vehicle interior are displayed according to the desired ambience. Likewise, the entertainment electronics unit can typically include an audio device that plays the desired music according to the desired ambience.

[0028] The vehicle is equipped with an interface that allows items ordered from outside, either manually by a delivery service or automatically by a robot / drone, to be delivered to the vehicle. Ideally, these items could be food or beverages. It is also advantageous if the interface includes a container for keeping food and / or beverages warm and / or cool until the customer enters the vehicle. This interface or an additional interface can then also be used for garbage disposal. A newspaper or magazine, for example, could also be delivered.

[0029] Embodiments of the invention are illustrated in the drawings and are explained in more detail below with reference to the figures.

[0030] They show: Fig. 1 a representation of a vehicle serving as a retreat for a person seeking recreation; Fig. 2 a representation of the vehicle and a personal portable device with which the recreational person sends a request message to the vehicle or a service provider; Fig. 3 the format of a request message; Fig. 4 an example of the design of the vehicle interior in which the person seeking recreation is staying; and Fig. 5 a block diagram of the vehicle's enhanced infotainment system, which serves as a retreat space for a person seeking relaxation.

[0031] The present description illustrates the principles of the inventive disclosure. It is thus understood that those skilled in the art will be able to devise various arrangements that, although not explicitly described herein, embody the principles of the inventive disclosure and are also intended to be protected within their scope.

[0032] The Fig. Figure 1 shows an overview of the concept according to the invention. Reference number 10 denotes a vehicle that is available as a retreat for a person 12 seeking recreation. In the example shown, the vehicle 10 is parked in front of the building in a public parking lot where the person 12 seeking recreation is working or has an appointment. A passenger car is depicted. However, any other vehicle could also be considered as the vehicle 10. Examples of other vehicles include buses, commercial vehicles, camper vans, mobile homes, agricultural machinery, construction machinery, rail vehicles, etc. The invention would generally be applicable to land vehicles, rail vehicles, watercraft, and aircraft.

[0033] In a typical case, person 12 is the owner of the vehicle. It would then also be typical for the owner to have driven vehicle 10 to work and parked the vehicle in a reserved parking space reserved by the employer. Person 12, seeking recreation, could then also access vehicle 10 in the reserved parking space.

[0034] In another typical case, the person seeking recreation is not the owner of vehicle 10. Person 12 may have rented vehicle 10 and driven the rental vehicle to the appointment.

[0035] In another case considered, the recreational person 12 rented the vehicle 10 solely for the purpose of recreation during a work break (e.g., lunch break). This case will be examined in detail below.

[0036] The recreational person 12 plans the use of the vehicle 10 as a retreat in advance. The planning is done using a personal portable device belonging to the person 12. Fig. 2 shows the vehicle 10 and the personal portable device 14 of the person 12. Typically, the personal portable device 14 is a smartphone or smartwatch, a tablet computer, laptop computer, or notebook computer. Such devices can be connected to the Internet 300 via cellular or another wireless communication system, e.g., WLAN. Fig. In the example shown in Figure 2, the device 14 is a smartphone and is connected to the Internet 300 via mobile radio, e.g., via the LTE mobile radio system according to Long Term Evolution. The vehicle 10 is also equipped with a communication module that is also configured for mobile radio communication. A mobile radio base station 210 is shown separately. This serves a mobile radio cell, into which both the vehicle 10 and the personal portable device 14 are logged in when in close proximity. However, the vehicle 10 and the portable device 14 can also be logged in to different mobile radio cells. Fig. 2 also shows the message exchange between the personal portable device 14 and the vehicle 10.

[0037] In a first step, a request message ANFN is sent from the personal portable device 14 to a backend server 320 of a service provider. A service provider could be, for example, a rental car provider, a car sharing provider, or a general vehicle provider. The message is forwarded in the usual manner first to the base station 210, to which the portable device 14 is logged on, and from there via the Internet 300 to the backend server 320.

[0038] Fig. Figure 3 shows an example of the format of the request message ANFN. It contains a reservation request for a vehicle 10 that the recreational person 12 would like to rent as a retreat. The reservation request includes the following information: • the location x chosen by the person seeking recreation where the vehicle 10 is to be parked, • the time t at which the vehicle is to be made available, • the duration Δt for which the vehicle is to be rented, • the ambience Λ that is to be set in the vehicle interior, • the items G to be delivered, • the media content (audio, video, images) AVS that should be played.

[0039] Typical items that can be delivered include a selection of food and drinks or snacks.

[0040] The request message ANFN is evaluated by the backend server 320. A reservation message RSVN is then sent to an available vehicle 10, informing it that it is being rented to the requesting person 12. The relevant information, which was already contained in the request message ANFN, is transmitted to the vehicle 10.

[0041] After reserving vehicle 10, the backend server 320 sends a confirmation message RSVBN back to the requesting person 12. In addition to the person's confirmation information, this message also includes an authentication code, which the person 12 must use to authenticate themselves in order to gain access to the vehicle 10 at the desired time. The person 12 must send this authentication code to the backend server 320 in order to gain access to the vehicle 10 at the agreed location and at the agreed time. This can be done in the form of an SMS message or another message. The backend server 320 will unlock the vehicle 10 with another message as soon as the valid authentication code is received from the authorized person at the desired time.Other forms of authentication would also be possible, including entering a code on the numeric keypad on vehicle 10, activation by scanning the fingerprint on a fingerprint scanner on vehicle 10, or by means of an RFID chip that the person receives in advance from the service provider.

[0042] In vehicle 10, person 12 can expect a pleasant and relaxing ambience entirely according to their individual preferences, which they communicated in the request message ANFN. Furthermore, the customer can change the settings for lighting, climate control, displays, etc., on-site in the vehicle.

[0043] Fig. 4 shows the interior of vehicle 10. The interior has already been heated to a comfortable temperature. For this purpose, air conditioning is provided, which is programmed accordingly during the reservation. The windows of vehicle 10 can be tinted to suppress disruptive light from outside. Displays 30 are mounted on the interior windows, showing images / videos corresponding to the desired ambience. These displays can be OLED displays, which can be manufactured very thin and can even be glued to the windows. Vehicle 10 includes a seat that can be adjusted to a comfortable position for relaxation. The audio system in vehicle 10 can play music that matches the selected ambience. The individual's own favorite music could also be played.In addition, the person will receive the items ordered when reserving the vehicle (food, drinks, etc.). These were previously delivered to vehicle 10. The service provider placed this order according to the customer's request and will list the relevant items on their invoice to the customer. The commissioned delivery service must have access to vehicle 10 to deposit the items there. For this purpose, vehicle 10 can be equipped with a special interface so that the delivery service can deposit the items without opening the vehicle door. The interface can be in the form of a flap or small door, which in turn can be opened using common authentication systems such as a smartphone, RFID chip, fingerprint scanner, key, etc. The interface can also be equipped with a cooling zone and / or a warming zone to keep drinks or food hot or cold.Automatic delivery can also be carried out using appropriate drone or robot delivery systems.

[0044] Fig.Figure 5 shows the block diagram of the modified infotainment system of the vehicle 10. In motor vehicles, especially cars, an infotainment system refers to the combination of the car radio, navigation system, hands-free system, driver assistance systems, and other functions in a central control unit. The term infotainment is a portmanteau of the words information and entertainment. A touch-sensitive screen 30 ("touchscreen") is primarily used to operate the infotainment system. Mechanical control elements, such as buttons, rotary controls, or combinations thereof, such as push-button dials, can also be arranged below the screen 30 in an input unit 50. Typically, steering wheel operation of parts of the infotainment system is also possible. This unit is not shown separately but is considered part of the input unit 50.

[0045] In addition, a computing device 40 and a memory 60 are provided. The display unit 30 comprises both a display surface for displaying variable graphic information and a user interface (touch-sensitive layer) arranged above the display surface for inputting commands by a user. Further display units 30' relate to the aforementioned OLED displays for displaying the ambient images and videos.

[0046] The display units 30 and 30' are connected to the computing device 40 via a data line 70. The data line can be designed according to the LVDS standard, corresponding to Low Voltage Differential Signaling. The display unit 30 receives control data for controlling the display surface of the touchscreen 30 from the computing device 40 via the data line 70. Control data of the input commands from the touchscreen 30 are also transmitted to the computing device 40 via the data line 70. The OLED displays 30' receive the image data and video data via corresponding data lines 70.

[0047] The memory device 60 is connected to the computing device 40 via a data line 80. A pictogram and / or symbol directory is stored in the memory 60, containing the pictograms and / or symbols for the possible display of additional information on the head-up display HUD 20. The image, video, and audio data of the set ambience are also stored in the memory 60.

[0048] The other parts of the infotainment system—camera 150, radio 140, navigation device 130, telephone 120, and instrument cluster 110—are connected to the device for operating the infotainment system via data bus 100. The high-speed variant of the CAN bus according to ISO Standard 11898-2 can be used as data bus 100. Alternatively, a bus system based on Ethernet technology, such as BroadR-Reach, could also be used. Bus systems in which data is transmitted via fiber optic cables can also be used. Examples include the MOST bus (Media Oriented System Transport) or the D2B bus (Domestic Digital Bus). It should also be mentioned here that camera 150 can be designed as a conventional video camera. In this case, it records 25 full frames / s, which corresponds to 50 fields / s in interlace recording mode.Alternatively, a special camera can be used that captures more images per second to increase the accuracy of object recognition for monitoring the surroundings of faster-moving objects. For wireless communication inside and outside, the vehicle 10 is equipped with a communication module 160. This module is often also referred to as the On-Board Connectivity Unit (OCU). It can be designed for mobile communications, e.g., according to the LTE standard, corresponding to Long Term Evolution. It can also be designed for WLAN communication, corresponding to Wireless LAN, whether for communication with devices of the occupants in the vehicle or for vehicle-to-vehicle communication, etc.

[0049] The other components in the block diagram are a programmable air conditioning system 170, a programmable interior lighting unit 180, and an interface 190. The air conditioning system 170 and the lighting unit are adjusted according to the desired ambience. Because it takes a certain amount of time for the vehicle interior to be cooled or heated to the desired temperature, the adjustment process for the air conditioning system takes place in advance, before the person 12 enters the vehicle 10 at the reserved time.

[0050] After the person 12 has left the vehicle 10, the delivery service can dispose of the remaining delivery items. This can also be done via interface 190 or via a second interface provided for this purpose.

[0051] In another variant, the vehicle 10 does not have to remain at a fixed location during the reserved time. Since the vehicle 10 is equipped for autonomous driving, it can also travel a desired or arbitrary route and return to the starting point at the end of the reserved time or drive to another desired location.

[0052] In another variant, the request message ANFN is sent directly to vehicle 10. This is intended for the case where the person sending the request message ANFN is the owner of vehicle 10. In this case, no service provider needs to reserve the vehicle. With the request message, vehicle 10 receives all the information it needs to set the appropriate ambience at the scheduled time. The vehicle could also be equipped to order the desired items from a delivery service, ensuring that they are delivered as described above.

[0053] All examples and conditional language mentioned herein are to be understood without limitation to such specifically cited examples. For example, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the block diagram presented herein represents a conceptual view of an exemplary circuit arrangement. Similarly, it will be appreciated that a depicted flowchart, state transition diagram, pseudocode, and the like represent various variations for representing processes that can be substantially stored in computer-readable media and thus executed by a computer or processor. The object recited in the claims may also expressly be a person.

[0054] It should be understood that the proposed method and associated devices can be implemented in various forms of hardware, software, firmware, special-purpose processors, or a combination thereof. Special-purpose processors may include application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs), reduced instruction set computers (RISCs), and / or field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs). Preferably, the proposed method and device are implemented as a combination of hardware and software. The software is preferably installed as an application program on a program storage device. Typically, this is a machine based on a computer platform that includes hardware such as one or more central processing units (CPUs), random access memory (RAM), and one or more input / output (I / O) interfaces.An operating system is typically also installed on the computer platform.
