Solution Overview

Problem

The verification of the display status of icon images on a dashboard in a vehicle is not adequately addressed, leading to potential incorrect displays that can compromise driving safety.

Innovation Solution

A verification method and apparatus that determine a to-be-verified icon image from the dashboard, calculate a first verification value, identify a corresponding target icon image, and determine a second verification value to verify the display status based on these values, ensuring accurate display of icon images.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of information

If icon images are displayed on the dashboard to indicate vehicle status, then drivers can obtain vehicle status information, but the risk of incorrect display increases which compromises driving safety

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevehicle status information accuracyVSAvoiddisplay correctness
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements a verification mechanism that compares the displayed icon image with the expected icon image and provides feedback when they do not match. The system calculates verification values for both images, compares them, and triggers a verification result indication when discrepancies are found, ensuring that incorrect displays are detected and communicated to the driver.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The patent performs preliminary verification of icon images before they are displayed to the driver. By pre-calculating verification values and comparing the displayed image with the expected image in advance, the system prevents incorrect information from reaching the driver, thereby maintaining display reliability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Reliability

If verification mechanisms are added to ensure display accuracy, then driving safety is improved, but the system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedisplay correctnessVSAvoidverification system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The verification system is designed to automatically perform verification operations without requiring external intervention. The system self-calculates verification values, self-compares displayed images with expected images, and self-indicates verification results, reducing the need for additional complex external verification devices.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The patent merges the verification function with the existing dashboard display system by integrating verification value calculation and comparison operations into the current image processing pipeline. This approach allows verification to be performed using existing system resources without adding significant structural complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

AI summary

The present disclosure relates to the technical field of intelligent driving, and discloses a verification method, apparatus and system for an icon image of a dashboard. In the verification method, a to-be-verified icon image is determined from an image currently displayed on the dashboard, a first verification value of the to-be-verified icon image is determined, and then a target icon image corresponding to the to-be-verified icon image is determined from at least one stored icon image of the dashboard; a second verification value of the target icon image is determined; and a display status of the to-be-verified icon image currently displayed on the dashboard is verified based on the first verification value and the second verification value.
