It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application.
In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 1, there is provided a pedestrian protection method applied to a vehicle on which a collision detection device, a radar detection device, an image pickup device, and a controller are mounted, wherein the radar detection device may be a millimeter wave radar. The image acquisition equipment can be a camera, and specifically can comprise a fixed camera and a look-around camera, wherein the look-around camera is used for realizing complementation with the fixed camera and acquiring images of a dead zone part of the fixed camera. In this embodiment, the method includes the steps of:
and step S102, when the vehicle is detected to collide with the object, acquiring object characteristic parameters of the object through the radar detection equipment.
The object characteristic parameter may be a parameter characterizing the object, such as the moving speed of the object and the reflected energy of the object.
In the concrete implementation, when the collision detection equipment detects that the vehicle collides with the object, a collision signal is generated and sent to the controller, and after the controller receives the collision signal, a detection instruction is generated and sent to the radar detection equipment, so that the radar detection equipment acquires the object moving speed and the object reflection energy of the object collided by the vehicle.
In practical application, the millimeter wave radar can be adopted to obtain the characteristic parameters of the object. After the millimeter wave radar receives the detection command sent by the controller, the electromagnetic wave is transmitted to the detected object at equal time intervals, and the moving speed of the detected object relative to the vehicle is determined according to the echo signal frequency difference.
Step S104, judging whether the object characteristic parameters meet preset conditions or not; the preset condition is that the object characteristic parameters are matched with the preset pedestrian characteristic parameters.
In the concrete realization, after obtaining object characteristic parameter through radar detection equipment, radar detection equipment will further judge whether object characteristic parameter satisfies preset condition, judge promptly whether object characteristic parameter matches with preset pedestrian characteristic parameter, more specifically, judge promptly whether object moving speed matches with preset pedestrian walking speed, and, judge whether object reflection energy matches with pedestrian reflection energy to whether the object that the judgement vehicle collided belongs to the pedestrian norm, realize the primary identification to this object.
And S106, when the characteristic parameters of the object meet preset conditions, acquiring the object image of the object through the image acquisition equipment.
In the specific implementation, when the radar detection device judges that the object characteristic parameters meet the preset conditions, namely the object characteristic parameters are matched with the pedestrian characteristic parameters, the radar detection device sends the judgment result to the controller, the controller generates an image acquisition instruction according to the judgment result and sends the image acquisition instruction to the image acquisition device, so that the image acquisition device acquires the object image of the object.
In practical application, a plurality of image acquisition devices can be installed on a vehicle, for example, images in front of the vehicle can be acquired through a fixed camera, images in front of the right and left of the vehicle can be acquired through a look-around camera, and therefore partial images of dead zones of the fixed camera can be acquired.
And step S108, identifying whether the object is a pedestrian according to the object image.

In the specific implementation, after the object characteristic parameters of the object are acquired through the radar detection device, the characteristic parameters are matched with the preset pedestrian characteristic parameters, and whether the object characteristic parameters meet the preset conditions or not is judged according to the matching result. Further, a matching result is determined by judging whether the moving speed of the object is within a preset walking speed range or not and judging whether the reflected energy of the object is matched with the preset reflected energy of the pedestrian or not. When at least one of the two conditions that the moving speed of the object is in the preset walking speed range and the reflected energy of the object is matched with the preset reflected energy of the pedestrian is met, the characteristic parameter of the object is judged to meet the preset condition. Otherwise, when the moving speed of the object is not within the preset walking speed range and the reflected energy of the object is not matched with the preset reflected energy of the pedestrian, the characteristic parameter of the object is judged not to meet the preset condition.
In this embodiment, when the moving speed of the object is within the preset traveling speed range and at least one of the two conditions that the reflected energy of the object matches the reflected energy of the preset pedestrian is satisfied, the characteristic parameter of the object is determined to satisfy the preset condition, and the collision object is determined according to the conditions, so that various possibilities that the collision object is a pedestrian are fully considered, and the situation that the collision object is actually a pedestrian is avoided, but the pedestrian protection system is not started due to a misjudgment due to the fact that one of the conditions is not satisfied, and the pedestrian is injured.
