The following describes a payment management method for a parking lot according to an embodiment of the present disclosure in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Fig. 1 shows a flowchart of a payment management method for a parking lot according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. In a possible implementation manner, the payment management method for the parking lot may be executed by a terminal device or a server or other processing device. The terminal device may be a User Equipment (UE), a mobile device, a User terminal, a cellular phone, a cordless phone, a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), a handheld device, a computing device, a vehicle-mounted device, or a wearable device. In some possible implementations, the parking lot payment management method may be implemented by a processor calling computer readable instructions stored in a memory. As shown in fig. 1, the payment management method for a parking lot includes steps S11 to S13.

In step S11, the current location of the user and the parking space information of the user are acquired.

In step S12, a target geographic area to which the parking space of the user belongs is determined according to the parking space information of the user.

In step S13, payment reminding information is generated in response to the current location of the user being within the target geographic area.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the current location of the user represents a current location of the user. In one possible implementation, the current location of the user includes current coordinates of the user. In another possible implementation, the current location of the user includes current coordinates and a current orientation of the user. Wherein the current coordinate of the user can be represented by a three-dimensional coordinate or a two-dimensional coordinate, and the current orientation of the user can be represented by an angle.

In a possible implementation manner, the acquiring the current location of the user and the parking space information of the user includes: and responding to a navigation request taking the parking space of the user as a destination, and acquiring the current position of the user and the parking space information of the user. Fig. 2 is a schematic view illustrating a navigation interface of a user terminal in the payment management method for a parking lot according to the embodiment of the disclosure. As shown in fig. 2, it may be determined that a navigation request addressed to a parking space of a user is received in response to detecting that a navigation button in a navigation interface of a user terminal is triggered, and a current location of the user and parking space information of the user may be obtained in response to the navigation request. In the implementation manner, the current position of the user and the parking space information of the user are acquired by responding to the navigation request taking the parking space of the user as the destination, so that the current position of the user and the parking space information of the user are acquired based on the navigation requirement of the user, the calculation amount of the user terminal can be saved, and the power consumption of the user terminal can be saved. In this implementation manner, in the process of navigating by using the parking space of the user as the destination, the current position of the user may be obtained at a preset frequency so as to update the current position of the user. Alternatively, the current location of the user may be retrieved in response to receiving a request to update the current location. As shown in fig. 2, for example, it may be determined that a request to update the current location is received in response to detecting that a visual positioning button in a navigation interface is triggered, and the current location of the user may be retrieved in response to the request to update the current location.

In another possible implementation manner, the current position of the user may be obtained at a preset frequency or continuously obtained, and the parking space information of the user may be obtained in response to that the current position of the user is in a parking space. In this implementation, the parking space information of the user may be automatically acquired for navigation in response to the current location of the user being within the parking lot.

In a possible implementation manner, the obtaining the current location of the user includes: acquiring an environment image; and carrying out visual positioning according to the environment image and the point cloud map of the parking lot to obtain the current position of the user. In this implementation, the environment image may represent an image obtained by photographing the surrounding environment of the user terminal. For example, a user may lift a user terminal (e.g., a mobile phone) in a parking lot, and the user terminal may capture an image of an environment faced by an image capture module (e.g., a camera module) to obtain an environment image. In this implementation, the number of the environment images may be one or more, and the environment images may also be a short video including multiple frames of images, which is not limited herein. In the implementation mode, the current position of the user is obtained by acquiring the environment image and performing visual positioning according to the environment image and the point cloud map of the parking lot, so that any active equipment does not need to be arranged in the parking lot in advance, the current position of the user can be obtained only through surrounding visual information, the positioning cost can be reduced, and the accurate current position of the user can be obtained.

As an example of this implementation, in a case where the payment management method of the parking lot is executed by a server, the server may receive a visual positioning request from a user terminal, where the visual positioning request may include the environment image. The server can perform visual positioning according to the environment image and the point cloud map of the parking lot to obtain the current position of the user, and can return the current position of the user to the user terminal. In this example, the server may store the point cloud map of the parking lot, extract the feature points of the environment image, match the feature points of the environment image with the point cloud map of the parking lot to obtain the visual positioning result of the user terminal, and determine the current position of the user according to the visual positioning result of the user terminal. Wherein the visual positioning result of the user terminal may include coordinates and posture information of the user terminal. The attitude information of the user terminal may include an orientation, a pitch angle, and the like of the user terminal. According to the user terminal visual positioning result, the coordinates and the orientation of the user when the user uses the user terminal to shoot the environment image can be determined, and therefore the current position of the user can be obtained.

As another example of the implementation manner, in a case where the user terminal executes the payment management method for the parking lot, the user terminal may generate a visual positioning request according to the environment image, send the visual positioning request to a server, perform visual positioning by the server according to the environment image and a point cloud map of the parking lot, obtain a current location of the user, and receive the current location of the user returned by the server. In this example, the server can be enabled to obtain the environment image by sending the visual positioning request to the server. In this example, a visual positioning request is generated by the user terminal according to the environment image, the visual positioning request is sent to the server, the server performs visual positioning according to the environment image and the point cloud map of the parking lot to obtain the current position of the user, and the current position of the user returned by the server is received, so that the calculation amount of the user terminal can be reduced, and the accurate current position of the user can be obtained.

In one example, if the server does not determine the visual positioning result matching with the environment image, the server may return the positioning failure information to the user terminal. After receiving the information of positioning failure, the user terminal can prompt the user to acquire the environment image again. For example, the user is prompted to change the orientation of the user terminal, adjust the pitch angle of the user terminal, move the position of the user terminal, and the like, so as to collect environment images of different viewing angles and different positions, and send a visual positioning request to the server again after the environment images are collected, thereby improving the success probability of visual positioning.

As another example of the implementation manner, in a case where the payment management method of the parking lot is executed by a user terminal, the user terminal may obtain a point cloud map of the parking lot in advance, and perform visual positioning according to the environment image and the point cloud map of the parking lot to obtain the current location of the user. In this example, visual positioning can still be achieved with the user terminal offline.

Fig. 3 shows a schematic diagram of a point cloud map. In one possible implementation, a point cloud map of a location may be obtained by collecting a large number of photos and/or videos of the location to recover a sparse feature point cloud of the location. In one possible implementation, the point cloud map may be generated by SFM (Structure From Motion). For example, a large number of photographs or videos of parking lots (e.g., a collection of photographs including different times, different angles, and different locations of the parking lots) may be obtained, and a point cloud map of the parking lots may be generated using SFM techniques based on the large number of photographs and/or videos of the parking lots.

In other possible implementations, the current location of the user may also be obtained through a positioning technology based on a Global Positioning System (GPS), a positioning technology based on a wireless local area network or bluetooth, a positioning technology based on an ultra wideband, and the like, which is not limited herein.

In this disclosure, the parking space information of the user indicates information of a parking space where the vehicle of the user is located. The parking space information of the user may include coordinates of the parking space of the user and/or a number of the parking space of the user. And determining the coordinates of the parking space of the user according to the corresponding relation between the serial number of the parking space and the coordinates of the parking space under the condition that the parking space information of the user comprises the serial number of the parking space of the user.

In a possible implementation manner, the parking space information of the user may be determined according to the parking space information selected by the user through the user terminal. Fig. 4 is a schematic view illustrating a parking space selection interface of a user terminal in the parking lot payment management method according to the embodiment of the disclosure. In one example, a parking space selection interface may be displayed in response to a navigation request with the user's parking space as a destination, and the user's parking space information may be determined according to the parking space information selected by the user.

In another possible implementation manner, the pre-stored parking space information of the user may be acquired in response to a navigation request with the parking space of the user as a destination. In the implementation mode, after the user parks, the parking space information of the user can be automatically recorded, or the parking space information of the user can be manually recorded by the user, so that the pre-stored parking space information of the user can be acquired when the user needs to find a vehicle in a parking lot. As an example of this implementation, the server may obtain a video stream in the parking lot, determine parking space information of the user according to image coordinates in an image coordinate system corresponding to the video stream in the parking lot of the vehicle of the user and a correspondence between the image coordinates and parking spaces, and automatically record the parking space information of the user. As another example of this implementation, the server may obtain a video stream in the parking lot, determine three-dimensional coordinates in a world coordinate system corresponding to the video stream of the vehicle of the user in the parking lot according to image coordinates in an image coordinate system corresponding to the video stream of the vehicle of the user in the parking lot and a correspondence between the image coordinates and the three-dimensional coordinates, determine parking space information of the user according to three-dimensional coordinates in the world coordinate system corresponding to the video stream of the vehicle of the user in the parking lot and a correspondence between the three-dimensional coordinates and parking spaces, and automatically record parking space information of the user.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, according to the parking space information of the user, a target geographic area to which the parking space of the user belongs may be determined. The target geographic area may include an area occupied by the parking space of the user and/or one or more areas adjacent to the area occupied by the parking space of the user. The target geographic area may be any shape such as a quadrilateral, a circle, an ellipse, and the like, and is not limited herein.

In a possible implementation manner, a distance between any one of the positions in the target geographic area and the parking space of the user is smaller than or equal to a preset distance threshold. In this implementation, when the current location of the user is within the target geographic area, it may be determined that a distance between the current location of the user and the parking space of the user is less than or equal to a preset distance threshold. For example, the preset distance threshold may be 5 meters. Of course, those skilled in the art can flexibly set the distance threshold according to the actual application scenario requirements and/or personal preferences, and is not limited herein. According to the implementation manner, under the condition that the current position of the user is in the target geographic area, the user can be determined to be close to the parking space of the user. The payment reminding information is generated at the opportunity, so that the payment reminding information can be generated based on the accurate parking time, the user can pay based on the accurate parking time, and the condition that the navigation of the user is influenced due to the early payment reminding can be reduced.

As an example of this implementation, for any location in the target geographic area, the distance between the location and the space of the user may be a minimum distance between the location and the space of the user. Wherein the parking space is generally quadrilateral (e.g. rectangular) in shape. In this example, for any position in the target geographic area, if the position is within the area occupied by the parking space of the user, it may be determined that the distance between the position and the parking space of the user is 0; if the position is outside the area occupied by the parking space of the user, the side closest to the position may be determined in the quadrangle corresponding to the parking space, and the distance between the closest side and the position may be determined as the distance between the position and the parking space of the user. As another example of this implementation manner, for any position in the target geographic area, the distance between the position and the parking space of the user may be a distance between preset edges of a quadrangle corresponding to the position and the parking space of the user. The preset side of the quadrangle corresponding to the parking space of the user can be the side marked with the serial number of the parking space of the user. Or the preset side of the quadrangle corresponding to the parking space of the user may be a side towards which the head and/or the tail of the vehicle of the user face. As another example of this implementation, for any one location in the target geographic area, the distance between the location and the parking space of the user may be a distance between geometric centers of quadrangles corresponding to the location and the parking space of the user. Of course, for any position in the target geographic area, the distance between the position and the parking space of the user may also be a distance between any point in a quadrilateral corresponding to the position and the parking space of the user, and a person skilled in the art may select the distance according to actual application scene requirements and/or personal preferences, which is not limited herein.

In a possible implementation manner, the payment reminding information may be directly generated under the condition that the current location of the user is within the target geographic area. In this implementation, it may not be considered whether the user is facing the user's space and/or whether there are obstacles (e.g., other vehicles or walls, etc.) between the user's current location and the user's space.

In another possible implementation manner, in response to that the current position of the user is within the target geographic area and the parking space of the user facing the user is determined according to the current orientation of the user, payment reminding information is generated. In this implementation, after detecting that the current location of the user is within the target geographic area, it may be further determined whether the user is facing a parking space of the user according to the current orientation of the user. If the current position of the user is in the target geographic area and the user faces to the parking space of the user, payment reminding information can be generated; if the current position of the user is in the target geographic area and the user is not facing the parking space of the user, no payment reminding information can be generated.

In another possible implementation manner, in response to that the current position of the user is within the target geographic area, and it is determined according to the video stream in the parking lot that no obstacle exists between the current position of the user and the parking space of the user, payment reminding information may be generated. In this implementation, after detecting that the current location of the user is within the target geographic area, it may be determined whether an obstacle exists between the current location of the user and a parking space of the user according to a video stream within the parking lot. If the current position of the user is in the target geographic area and no barrier exists between the current position of the user and the parking space of the user, payment reminding information can be generated; if the current position of the user is in the target geographic area and an obstacle exists between the current position of the user and the parking space of the user, the payment reminding information is not generated.

In another possible implementation manner, in response to that the current position of the user is in the target geographic area, the parking space of the user, which is oriented to the user by the user, is determined according to the current orientation of the user, and it is determined according to a video stream in the parking space that no obstacle exists between the current position of the user and the parking space of the user, so that payment reminding information is generated. In this implementation, after detecting that the current location of the user is within the target geographic area, it may be further determined whether the user is facing a parking space of the user according to the current orientation of the user, and it may be determined whether an obstacle exists between the current location of the user and the parking space of the user according to a video stream in the parking space. If the current position of the user is in the target geographic area, the user faces the parking space of the user, and no barrier exists between the current position of the user and the parking space of the user, payment reminding information can be generated; if the current position of the user is in the target geographic area and the user is not facing the parking space of the user, no payment reminding information can be generated; if the current position of the user is in the target geographic area and an obstacle exists between the current position of the user and the parking space of the user, the payment reminding information is not generated.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, in a case where the service end executes the payment management method of the parking lot, after the service end generates the payment reminding information in response to the current position of the user being in the target geographic area, the service end may send the payment reminding information to the user terminal, so that the user terminal displays the payment reminding information. Under the condition that the user terminal executes the payment management method of the parking lot, after the user terminal responds to the current position of the user in the target geographic area and generates payment reminding information, the payment reminding information can be displayed.

In a possible implementation manner, the generating payment reminding information in response to the current location of the user being within the target geographic area includes: and generating payment reminding information in response to the situation that the current position of the user is in the target geographic area and the departure intention of the user is detected. In this implementation, the departure may represent an intention to leave the parking lot, and the departure intention may represent an intention to leave the parking lot. The detection of the user's departure intention may indicate that the user is intentionally leaving the parking lot. In the implementation mode, the payment reminding information is generated by responding to the situation that the current position of the user is in the target geographic area and detecting the departure intention of the user, so that the probability of generating the payment reminding information at unnecessary time can be reduced, the efficiency of payment reminding is improved, and unnecessary influence on the user is reduced.

As an example of this implementation, the method further comprises: determining that the departure intention of the user is detected in response to the current navigation destination of the user being the parking space of the user; and/or determining that the departure intention of the user is detected in response to the fact that the parking time of the user is greater than or equal to the preset time. In one example, the payment reminding message may be generated when the current location of the user is within the target geographic area and the current navigation destination of the user is the parking space of the user. In another example, the payment reminding message may be generated when the current location of the user is within the target geographic area and the parking duration of the user is greater than or equal to a preset duration. In another example, the payment reminding information may be generated when the current navigation destination of the user is the parking space of the user or the parking time of the user is greater than or equal to a preset time, and the current position of the user is in the target geographic area. In this example, the departure intention of the user can be accurately determined by determining that the departure intention of the user is detected in response to the current navigation destination of the user being the parking space of the user, and/or determining that the departure intention of the user is detected in response to the parking time of the user being greater than or equal to a preset time.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the payment reminding information may be any information for reminding payment. For example, the payment reminding information may be information in the form of text, picture, audio/video, and the like, which is not limited herein.

In a possible implementation manner, the generating payment reminding information in response to the current location of the user being within the target geographic area includes: and generating payment reminding information for displaying in the live-action image in response to the current position of the user in the target geographic area. In this implementation manner, the payment reminding information may be payment reminding information in an AR (Augmented Reality) form. The payment reminding information used for being displayed in the live-action image is generated by responding to the current position of the user in the target geographical area, so that the payment reminding information can be conveniently displayed in the AR navigation process, the AR navigation information is not influenced when the payment reminding information is displayed, and the user can use the payment reminding information more conveniently. Of course, in other possible implementation manners, the payment reminding information may also be presented in a non-AR form, and is not limited herein.

In a possible implementation manner, the generating payment reminding information in response to the current location of the user being within the target geographic area includes: and generating payment reminding information in response to the fact that the user does not pay and the current position of the user is in the target geographic area. In this implementation manner, under the condition that the user is detected to have paid, the payment reminding information may not be generated, so as to reduce unnecessary influence on the user and improve the parking payment experience of the user. Of course, in other implementation manners, the payment reminding information may be generated in response to that the current location of the user is within the target geographic area, regardless of whether the user has paid. In one example, the payment due reminder may also be withheld in response to receiving the request for no more reminders.

In a possible implementation manner, the generating payment reminding information in response to the current location of the user being within the target geographic area includes: determining a predicted departure time corresponding to the parking space of the user in response to the current position of the user being in the target geographic area, wherein the predicted departure time corresponding to the parking space of the user represents a predicted departure time from the parking space of the user to the departure from the parking lot; and generating payment reminding information according to the expected departure time corresponding to the parking space of the user. In the implementation mode, the predicted departure time corresponding to the parking space of the user is determined in response to the fact that the current position of the user is in the target geographic area, and the payment reminding information is generated according to the predicted departure time corresponding to the parking space of the user, so that the user can be reminded of paying by self before arriving at the exit of the parking lot, the departure speed can be further improved, and the jam of the exit of the parking lot can be further reduced.

As an example of this implementation manner, the generating payment reminding information according to the expected departure time corresponding to the parking space of the user includes: determining payment time limit corresponding to the user according to the expected departure time length corresponding to the parking space of the user; and generating payment control information and countdown information corresponding to the payment time limit. In this example, the user terminal may display the payment control according to the payment control information; the user terminal can display the countdown information corresponding to the payment time limit according to the countdown information corresponding to the payment time limit. For example, the user terminal may display the payment control and the countdown information corresponding to the payment time limit in the live-action image. In this example, before the user gets on the car, the payment time limit corresponding to the user may be the same as the expected departure time corresponding to the parking space of the user. After the user gets on the vehicle, the payment time limit can be changed along with the change of the position of the vehicle of the user. In this example, the payment control may be used to jump to a payment interface. According to the expected departure time length corresponding to the parking space of the user, the payment time limit corresponding to the user is determined, and payment control information and countdown information corresponding to the payment time limit are generated, so that the user terminal can display the payment control and the countdown information corresponding to the payment time limit, and the user can be further reminded to pay by self before arriving at an exit of the parking lot.

As another example of the implementation manner, the latest payment time corresponding to the user may be determined according to the expected departure time corresponding to the parking space of the user, and the payment control and the latest payment time may be displayed in the live view image. For example, the sum of the current time and the estimated departure time may be used as the latest payment time.

As an example of this implementation, the determining an expected departure time length corresponding to the parking space of the user includes: under the condition that a plurality of exits exist in the parking lot, acquiring estimated departure time lengths corresponding to the exits; and determining the expected departure time length corresponding to the parking space of the user according to the minimum value of the expected departure time lengths corresponding to the plurality of exits. In this example, the parking lot may include one or more exits. The estimated departure time length corresponding to any one exit can be determined according to the parking space information of the user, the position information of the exit, the estimated congestion time length of the exit and/or the estimated payment time length of the exit. For example, the time length from the parking space of the user to the time length of the user to the exit, the estimated congestion time length of the exit and/or the estimated payment time length of the exit may be determined as the estimated departure time length corresponding to the exit. Wherein the estimated congestion time duration for the egress may represent an estimated time duration that the egress needs to queue. For example, a queuing length of at least one vehicle exiting the exit at the exit may be determined based on the video stream at the exit, and the predicted congestion length for the exit may be determined based on the queuing length of the at least one vehicle exiting the exit at the exit. For example, an average value of the queuing time periods of a plurality of vehicles exiting from the exit at the exit may be determined as the predicted congestion time period of the exit. The estimated payment duration for the export may represent an estimated required payment duration for the export. For example, the time length spent in paying the exit by at least one vehicle driving out from the exit can be determined based on the video stream at the exit, and the estimated paying time length of the exit is determined according to the time length spent in paying the exit by at least one vehicle driving out from the exit. For example, an average value of the time lengths spent by a plurality of vehicles exiting from the exit at the exit may be determined as the estimated payment time length of the exit.

In this example, the minimum value of the expected departure time lengths corresponding to the plurality of exits may be used as the expected departure time length corresponding to the parking space of the user; or, a difference between a minimum value of the expected departure time lengths corresponding to the plurality of exits and a preset time length may be used as the expected departure time length corresponding to the parking space of the user, where the preset time length is greater than 0. In this example, when a plurality of exits exist in the parking lot, the expected departure time lengths corresponding to the plurality of exits are obtained, and the expected departure time length corresponding to the parking space of the user is determined according to the minimum value of the expected departure time lengths corresponding to the plurality of exits, so that the probability that the user pays by himself before arriving at the exits of the parking lot is improved. Of course, in other examples, the estimated departure time corresponding to the parking space of the user may be determined according to an average value of the estimated departure time corresponding to the multiple exits, or the estimated departure time corresponding to the parking space of the user may be determined according to a median of the estimated departure time corresponding to the multiple exits, and the like.

In a possible implementation manner, the generating payment reminding information in response to the current location of the user being within the target geographic area includes: in response to the current position of the user being within the target geographic area, determining a parking duration of the user according to the entry time and the current time of the vehicle of the user; and generating payment reminding information according to the parking duration. In the implementation mode, the current position of the user is responded to be in the target geographic area, the parking duration of the user is determined according to the entrance time and the current time of the vehicle of the user, and the payment reminding information is generated according to the parking duration, so that the parking duration of the user can be determined at a proper time, and the user can pay based on the accurate parking duration.

As an example of this implementation, before the determining the parking duration of the user according to the entry time and the current time of the vehicle of the user, the method further includes: acquiring a video stream in a parking lot; determining an entry time of the user's vehicle based on a time at which the user's vehicle was first detected in a video stream within the parking lot. In this example, by determining the entry time of the user's vehicle according to the time when the user's vehicle is first detected in the video stream in the parking lot, the entry time of the user's vehicle can be determined based on a computer vision method after the user's vehicle enters the parking lot, so that the queuing time of the user's vehicle at the entrance of the parking lot can be reduced, the user's time can be saved, and congestion at the entrance of the parking lot can be reduced.

As an example of this implementation, before the determining the parking duration of the user according to the entry time and the current time of the vehicle of the user, the method further includes: acquiring a video stream of the parking space of the user; and determining the entrance time of the vehicle of the user according to the time of detecting the vehicle of the user for the first time in the video stream of the parking space of the user. In this example, the entry time of the vehicle of the user is determined according to the time when the vehicle of the user is detected for the first time in the video stream of the parking space of the user, so that the entry time of the vehicle of the user can be determined based on a computer vision method after the vehicle of the user enters the parking space of the parking lot, and therefore the queuing time of the vehicle of the user at the entrance of the parking lot can be reduced, the time of the user can be saved, and the congestion of the entrance of the parking lot can be reduced.

In other examples, a license plate of the user's vehicle may be photo identified at an entrance to a parking lot to determine an entry time of the user's vehicle.

The following describes a payment management method for a parking lot according to an embodiment of the present disclosure through a specific application scenario. In the application scene, a user walks through a shopping mall, stands in a parking lot of the shopping mall, and takes out a mobile phone (user terminal) to shoot an environment image. And the mobile phone generates a visual positioning request according to the environment image and sends the visual positioning request to a server. And the server extracts the characteristic points of the environment image, matches the characteristic points of the environment image with the point cloud map of the parking lot, and obtains the current position of the mobile phone. And the server acquires the coordinates of the parking space of the user and determines a target geographical area to which the parking space of the user belongs according to the coordinates of the parking space of the user. The server side can determine whether the current position of the user is in the target geographic area according to the current position of the mobile phone and the coordinates of the target geographic area, can respond to the fact that the current position of the user is in the target geographic area, generates payment control information and countdown information corresponding to payment time limit, and sends the payment control information and the countdown information corresponding to the payment time limit to the mobile phone. The mobile phone can display the payment control and the countdown information corresponding to the payment time limit in the live-action image according to the payment control information and the countdown information corresponding to the payment time limit. The user can carry out self-service payment through the payment control. After the user finishes paying, when the vehicle of the user leaves, the user can respond to the fact that the user pays, and the user is allowed to leave by controlling to open a gate of an outlet of the parking lot.
