Description

Title of the invention: Method and device for controlling a vehicle's display system when approaching a service station or charging point technical field

[0001] The present invention relates to methods and devices for controlling a display system in a vehicle, particularly a motor vehicle. The present invention also relates to a method and device for guiding a vehicle driver. Technological background

[0002] When approaching an energy distribution station, for example a service station for a vehicle using fuel such as gasoline, ethanol, diesel, or liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), or a charging station for an electric vehicle, it is not always easy to identify the appropriate energy distributor for a given vehicle. Indeed, indicators such as signs or displays sometimes lack visibility, for example, because they are obscured by another vehicle, or legibility.

[0003] Furthermore, a vehicle driver must position the vehicle to easily refuel via a fuel filler flap or electrical outlet. However, the driver may not always know or remember the location of this flap, as they may own several vehicles where the flap or outlet is not always on the same side, or may be driving a vehicle that is not their own, such as a loaner or rental car. Once inside the vehicle, it is not easy to distinguish the position of the flap or electrical outlet located outside the vehicle, and the driver may therefore be unsure whether they are heading towards a fuel dispenser ideally positioned relative to this flap or outlet. Summary of the present invention

[0004] One object of the present invention is to resolve at least one of the drawbacks of the technological background.

[0005] Another object of the present invention is to provide instructions to guide the driver of a vehicle to an energy distributor suitable for his vehicle.

[0006] According to a first aspect, the present invention relates to a method for controlling a vehicle display system, the display system comprising a screen, the method comprising the following steps: - receipt of initial information representative of a geographical position of the vehicle and a second piece of information representing the location of an energy distribution station including at least one energy distributor; - reception of data representative of an image of a scene taking place around the vehicle acquired by an on-board camera of the vehicle according to a result of a comparison between the first and second pieces of information, the scene including the energy distribution station; - determination of a location of a vehicle stopping zone based on the data and a position of a vehicle hatch, the hatch allowing the vehicle to be supplied with energy; - control of image display and graphic content superimposed on the image depending on the location of the stop zone on the screen.

[0007] Such a method thus makes it possible to guide a vehicle driver to an energy distributor suited to their vehicle based on their relative position with respect to the vehicle. The driver can therefore recharge their vehicle without difficulty.

[0008] According to one variant of the method, the first information is received from an on-board navigation system of the vehicle.

[0009] According to yet another variant of the process, the second piece of information is received from the on-board navigation system, the on-board navigation system comprising a map and information received from a remote server.

[0010] According to a further embodiment of the method, the camera (102) belongs to a set of cameras comprising: - a front-facing camera, and - a reversing camera.

[0011] According to another variant, the method further includes a step of identifying an energy distributor from the energy distribution station suitable for the vehicle.

[0012] According to yet another variant of the method, the graphic content comprises at least a first graphic object corresponding to the location of a vehicle stopping zone and at least a second graphic object corresponding to a location of a stopping zone associated with an energy distributor not adapted to the vehicle.

[0013] According to a second aspect, the present invention relates to a control device for a vehicle display system, the device comprising a memory associated with a processor configured for the implementation of the steps of the process according to the first aspect of the present invention.

[0014] According to a third aspect, the present invention relates to a vehicle, for example of the automobile type, comprising a device as described above according to the second aspect of the present invention.

[0015] According to a fourth aspect, the present invention relates to a computer program that includes instructions adapted for executing the steps of the method according to the first aspect of the present invention, in particular when the computer program is executed by at least one processor.

[0016] Such a computer program may use any programming language, and be in the form of source code, object code, or an intermediate form between source code and object code, such as in a partially compiled form, or in any other desirable form.

[0017] According to a fifth aspect, the present invention relates to a computer-readable recording medium on which is recorded a computer program comprising instructions for carrying out the steps of the process according to the first aspect of the present invention.

[0018] On the one hand, the recording medium can be any entity or device capable of storing the program. For example, the medium can include a storage means, such as a ROM, RAM, CD-ROM or a microelectronic circuit-type ROM, or a magnetic recording means or a hard disk drive.

[0019] On the other hand, this recording medium can also be a transmissible medium such as an electrical or optical signal, such a signal being able to be transmitted via an electrical or optical cable, by conventional or radio frequency, by self-directing laser beam, or by other means. The computer program according to the present invention can, in particular, be downloaded from an Internet-type network.

[0020] Alternatively, the recording medium may be an integrated circuit in which the computer program is incorporated, the integrated circuit being adapted to execute or to be used in the execution of the process in question. Brief description of the figures

[0021] Other features and advantages of the present invention will become apparent from the description of the particular and non-limiting embodiments of the present invention below, with reference to the attached Figures 1 to 5, in which:

[0026] [Fig.5] illustrates a flowchart of the different stages of a control process of a vehicle display system, according to a particular and non-limiting embodiment of the present invention. Description of the implementation methods

[0027] A method and a control device for a vehicle display system will now be described in what follows with joint reference to Figures 1 to 5. The same elements are identified with the same reference signs throughout the following description.

[0028] The terms "first," "second" (or "firsts," "seconds"), etc., are used in this document by arbitrary convention to allow for the identification and distinction of different elements (such as operations, means, etc.) implemented in the embodiments described below. Such elements may be distinct or correspond to a single element, depending on the embodiment.

[0029] According to a particular and non-limiting embodiment of the present invention, the control of a vehicle display system, for example by a vehicle computer, includes the reception of a first piece of information representing a geographical position of the vehicle and a second piece of information representing a location of an energy distribution station including at least one energy distributor.

[0030] The method also includes receiving data representative of an image of a scene taking place around the vehicle by an on-board camera of the vehicle, the scene including the power distribution station.

[0031] A location of a vehicle stopping zone is determined based on data and the position of a vehicle hatch allowing its energy supply.

[0032] The display of the image and graphic content superimposed on the image is then controlled on a screen of the vehicle according to the location of the stopping area.

[0033] Fig. 1 schematically illustrates an environment 1 in which a vehicle evolves, according to a particular and non-limiting embodiment of the present invention.

[0034] Vehicle 10 corresponds, for example, to a vehicle with an internal combustion engine, with electric motor(s), or even a hybrid vehicle with an internal combustion engine and one or more electric motors. Vehicle 10 thus corresponds, for example, to a land vehicle, for example a car, a truck, a bus.

[0035] According to a particular embodiment, the vehicle 10 carries one or more AD / AS systems, each controlled by one or more computers. These computers form, for example, a multiplexed architecture for providing various services useful for the proper functioning of the vehicle and for assisting the driver. and / or the vehicle's passengers in the control of the vehicle 10 via the control of the AD AS system(s) on board the vehicle 10. The computers communicate and exchange data with each other via one or more computer buses, for example a CAN data bus (from the English "Controller Area Network" or in French "Réseau de contrôlers"), CAN FD (from the English "Controller Area Network Flexible Data-Rate" or in French "Réseau de contrôlers à débit de données flexible"), FlexRay (according to the ISO 17458 standard), LIN (from the English "Local Interconnect Network" or in French "Réseau interconnecté local") or Ethernet (according to the ISO / IEC 802-3 standard).

[0036] The vehicle 10 carries a navigation and geolocation system, also called a GNSS system (Geolocation and Navigation by a Satellite System), for example a GPS type system (from the English "Global Positioning System" or in French "Système de géo-positionnement par satellites").

[0037] The vehicle 10 is also configured to communicate (receive and / or transmit) data with other vehicles and / or a communication network infrastructure according to a wireless communication mode, known as V2X.

[0038] For this purpose, the vehicle 10 carries a communication device corresponding for example to a telematic control unit, called TCU (from the English "Telematic Control Unit") associated with one or more antennas.

[0039] The environment 1 of the vehicle 10 includes, for example, a mobile communication infrastructure, for example, a V2X (Vehicle-to-everything) network infrastructure, with which the vehicle 10 is configured to communicate data. The communication infrastructure implements, for example, communications according to LTE (Long-Term Evolution), LTE-Avanced (Long-Term Evolution - Advanced), C-V2X (Cellular - Vehicle to Everything) technology, which is based on 4G and / or 5G, based on LTE. Vehicle 10 communicates advantageously using a so-called V2X communication system, for example based on the 3GPP LTE-V or IEEE 802.1 lp standards of ITS G5.In such a V2X communication system, each vehicle carries a node to enable vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V), vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I), and / or vehicle-to-pedestrian (V2P) communication.

[0040] The network infrastructure includes, for example, communication devices 110 corresponding to relay antennas and / or roadside units (RSUs), each corresponding to a node of the network.

[0041] The antenna or UBR 110 is advantageously connected to one or more remote servers 112, for example via the "cloud" 111, via a wired and / or wireless connection. The antenna or UBR 110 is thus configured to act as a relay between the "cloud" 111 (and the remote server 112) and the vehicle 10.

[0042] As illustrated in [Fig. 2], the vehicle 10 advantageously incorporates in its passenger compartment a display system comprising a screen 104 and a computer configured to control the display of content from a graphical HMI on the touchscreen. The computer corresponds, for example, to the computer of the vehicle's infotainment system, known as the IVI (In-Vehicle Infotainment) computer.

[0043] The screen is, for example, touch-sensitive and corresponds, for example, to an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display), a TFT (Thin-Film Transistor), or an OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode). The screen is, for example, arranged in the center of the dashboard 103, for example above a central panel. Of course, the screen's position is not limited to this example; the screen can be arranged in any position, for example on the central panel.

[0044] The screen displays content for the driver and passengers of the vehicle. The screen is also configured to allow the driver and / or passengers to interact with one or more on-board vehicle systems via a human-machine interface (HMI) displayed on the screen. For example, the screen allows control of the vehicle's infotainment system, also known as the IVI (In-Vehicle Infotainment) system, as well as, for example, the system responsible for controlling a vehicle's journey 10, as described below.

[0045] According to another example, not illustrated here, the screen is not integrated into the passenger compartment but corresponds to a screen of a second mobile communication device, such as a smartphone or a tablet, connected in communication, for example wirelessly, with the vehicle's on-board system.

[0046] The vehicle 10 is powered by an engine, the engine being supplied with energy. This energy is, according to a first example, a fuel stored in a tank, such as gasoline, ethanol, diesel, or LPG. According to a second example, this energy is electricity stored in a traction battery. The vehicle 10 includes a hatch 101 allowing the vehicle to be supplied with energy. Thus, this hatch corresponds to a fuel filler flap according to the first example or to a hatch providing access to an electrical outlet according to the second example.

[0047] Such a hatch is located, according to the vehicle 10, in a specific place. By For example, the hatch is positioned: - in the middle of a front bumper, or - on a front or rear wing of the vehicle, on the right or left side.

[0048] This position differs from one vehicle to another, so a first internal combustion engine vehicle has a fuel filler flap on its right side while a second internal combustion engine vehicle has a fuel filler flap on its left side.

[0049] The vehicle 10 advantageously includes at least one camera 102. This camera allows for the acquisition of images of a scene taking place around the vehicle 10.

[0050] According to one particular embodiment, the camera 102 is placed at the top of the windshield of the vehicle 10 and acquires images of a scene taking place in front of the vehicle 10.

[0051] According to another particular embodiment, the camera 102 is placed in a rear bumper of the vehicle 10 and corresponds to a reversing camera. This camera 102 acquires images of a scene taking place behind the vehicle 10. For example, it is only active when the vehicle 10 performs a maneuver such as "reversing," that is, when the vehicle 10 is moving backward.

[0052] The vehicle 10 is located near a power distribution station 12. The power distribution station 12 is, as illustrated in [Fig. 1], positioned in front of the vehicle 10, a common situation when the vehicle has an internal combustion engine. The power distribution station 12 is thus within the field of view of the camera 102 if the camera is positioned to acquire an image of a scene located in front of the vehicle 10.

[0053] According to another example, the power distribution station 12 is placed behind the vehicle 10, such a situation occurring when the vehicle has an electric motor and the hatch 101 is placed at the rear of the vehicle 10. The power distribution station 12 is thus located in the field of vision of the camera 102 if the latter is placed so as to acquire an image of a scene located behind the vehicle 10.

[0054] According to the example illustrated in [Fig. 1], the power distribution station 12 comprises four power distributors 12a, 12b, 12c and 12d. Obviously, the invention is not limited to four power distributors but extends to any number of power distributors greater than or equal to one.

[0055] Among the energy distributors, some 12a and 12c are accessible from the left, while others 12b and 12d are accessible from the right. Each distributor has a vehicle parking area 13a, 13b, 13c, and 13d, where a vehicle must park to recharge. A vehicle placed in one of these parking areas 13a, 13b, 13c, and 13d is ideally located if that parking area is suitable for its position. hatch 101.

[0056] It should be noted that not all fuel dispensers provide all possible fuels; some are compatible with vehicle 10 while others are not. For example, fuel dispenser 12a dispenses both gasoline and diesel, while fuel dispenser 12c dispenses only diesel. In this example, if vehicle 10 has a fuel filler flap on its right side and is powered by a gasoline engine, it can only refuel from fuel dispenser 12a and must therefore position itself in the stopping zone 13a associated with fuel dispenser 12a. It is then useful to instruct the driver of vehicle 10 to position the vehicle 10 in the stopping zone 13a.

[0057] A control process for a vehicle display system 10 is advantageously implemented by one or more processors of one or more computers of the vehicle 10.

[0058] In a first operation, a first piece of information representing a geographical position of the vehicle 10 and a second piece of information representing a location of an energy distribution station 12 comprising at least one energy distributor are received.

[0059] According to a particular embodiment, the first information is received from the vehicle 10's on-board navigation system. It then allows the vehicle 10 to be positioned on a road map or a plan, for example, determined using geolocation coordinates of the vehicle 10.

[0060] According to one particular embodiment, the second piece of information is also received from the on-board navigation system. The on-board navigation system includes, for example, a map and information received from a remote server 112 that allows one or more energy distribution stations to be located on the same road map or plan. The information received from the remote server 112 includes, for example, the availability of energy, the price of that energy, and / or the compatibility between an energy distributor and the vehicle 10.

[0061] The first and second pieces of information are compared in a second operation. This comparison makes it possible, for example, to locate the energy distribution station 12 in relation to the vehicle 10, for example by determining the distance separating the vehicle 10 from the energy distribution station 12 and / or by locating the energy distribution station 12 in relation to the vehicle 10, locating the energy charging station 12 in front of or behind the vehicle 10.

[0062] In a third operation, representative data of an image 23 of a scene taking place around the vehicle 10 and including the power distribution station 12 acquired by a camera 102 on board the vehicle 10 are received in function of a result of a comparison between the first and second pieces of information. The acquisition of image 23 is triggered for example when the energy distribution station 12 is at a distance from the vehicle 10 less than a threshold, for example 50, 20 or 10m.

[0063] According to one particular embodiment, camera 102 belongs to a set of cameras comprising: - a front camera, and - a rear camera.

[0064] The camera 102 acquiring the image 23 when the result of the comparison indicates that it is located in the direction of the energy charging station 12, that is to say that the energy charging station 12 is in the field of vision of the camera 102.

[0065] According to a particular embodiment, in a fourth step, a suitable power distributor 12a, 12b, 12c and / or 12d of the power distribution station 12 for the vehicle 10 is identified. "Suitable" here means a power distributor that provides the same type of power as the power used to propel the vehicle 10, and, for example, compatibility with a type of electrical gun or plug. This operation uses, for example, the second piece of information as input data, the characteristics of the power distributors being received, for example, from the remote server 112. According to another example, this operation uses representative data from Figure 23 received, for example, by reading or observing signs or markings that allow identification of a type of power available for a power distributor 12a, 12b, 12c, 12d.

[0066] In a fifth step, a location of a stopping zone of the vehicle 10 is determined based on the data and a position of a hatch 101 of the vehicle 10, the hatch allowing the supply of energy to the vehicle 10. The position of the hatch 101 is for example recorded in a memory of the computer or in a memory accessible to the navigation system.

[0067] For example, if the hatch 101 is located on the left side of the vehicle 10, then it is necessary to position the vehicle 10 in a stopping area located on the right side of a power distributor. According to the example illustrated in [Fig. 1], of the four power distributors 12a, 12b, 12c, and 12d, only power distributors 12b and 12d are ideally located. The locations of the stopping areas 13b and 13d associated with these power distributors 12b and 12d are then determined.

[0068] In a sixth step, the display of the image 23 and of graphic content superimposed on this image 23 is controlled according to the location of the stop zone on the screen 104.

[0069] According to the example illustrated in [Fig. 1], the determined locations correspond to stopping zones 13b and 13d. [Fig.3] illustrates an example of displaying these zones on screen 104.

[0070] In a first part 1041 of the screen 104, a representation of a road map is displayed for example, showing a route 21 planned for the vehicle 10 and the current position 22 of the vehicle 10.

[0071] In a second part 1042 of the screen 104, the image 23 is displayed and graphic content comprising at least a first graphic object 24 corresponding to the location of a stopping area of ​​the vehicle 10 and at least a second graphic object 25 corresponding to a location of a stopping area associated with an energy distributor not suitable for the vehicle 10 is also displayed, superimposed on the image 23.

[0072] In this example, two identical graphic objects 24 indicate the locations of the previously determined stopping zones 13b and 13d. These graphic objects 24 correspond, for example, to arrows or chevrons, for example green or blue in color, whose point is directed towards a previously determined stopping zone.

[0073] Similarly, in this example, two identical graphic objects 25 indicate the locations of the stopping zones 13a and 13c corresponding to stopping zones associated with energy distributors 12a, 12c located on the wrong side with respect to the position of the hatch 101. These graphic objects 25 correspond, for example, to barred circles, for example of red or orange color, placed near the positions of the stopping zones 13a and 13c.

[0074] By looking at the screen 104 of the vehicle 10, the driver easily identifies the compatible and well-positioned energy distributor in relation to the position of the hatch 101 of the vehicle 10. He then heads towards one of the stopping areas whose location has been previously determined.

[0075] According to a particular embodiment, the image 23 is acquired repeatedly as the vehicle 10 approaches a power distributor, and its display is updated. The driver then has access to current guidance information adapted to the movement of the vehicle 10.

[0076] Such a process thus makes it possible to guide a vehicle driver to an energy distributor suited to their vehicle in terms of distributor type, energy type, and its relative positioning with respect to the vehicle, by presenting them with augmented reality-type information. The driver therefore encounters no compatibility problems between the energy distributor and their vehicle and can recharge their vehicle without difficulty.
