Along with the development of science and technology, the development of automobiles is also more and more intelligent, and people also more and more need the control of vehicles, for example, can realize the control of vehicles through simple pronunciation alright. In order to control a vehicle more simply and effectively, an in-vehicle robot has been introduced, and the in-vehicle robot is generally disposed in the middle of an instrument panel of the vehicle, and a user can control the vehicle through the in-vehicle robot. However, the existing vehicle-mounted robot is generally assembled before leaving a factory, and is inflexible to use and relatively high in cost, that is, a user needs to additionally purchase the vehicle-mounted robot on the basis of purchasing a basic vehicle money, and thus the control cost of a vehicle is increased. In addition, the existing vehicle control products cannot be well connected with the life outside and inside the vehicle of a client, namely, the vehicle-mounted robot is mainly installed on the vehicle and can be used only when the user uses the vehicle, and the vehicle-mounted robot cannot interact with the vehicle-mounted robot after the user leaves the vehicle, so that the vehicle-mounted robot cannot better meet the actual requirements of the user.

In order to solve the above technical problems, the applicant has made a long-term study and has proposed a vehicle control method, an apparatus, an electronic controller and a vehicle in the embodiments of the present application, which can reduce the cost of vehicle control by sending a function switching instruction to a target electronic device to instruct the target electronic device to switch its operation mode from a normal use mode to an on-board control mode. Specifically, whether the target electronic device is placed on a designated support of the vehicle or not is determined, whether the target electronic device is connected with a control system of the vehicle or not is determined when the target electronic device is determined to be placed on the designated support of the vehicle, and a function switching instruction is sent to the electronic device if the target electronic device is determined to be connected with the control system of the vehicle, wherein the function switching instruction is used for switching the target electronic device from a normal use mode to an on-vehicle control mode. When the target electronic equipment is determined to be placed on the designated support of the vehicle, the electronic equipment can be indicated to be switched to the vehicle-mounted control mode from the normal use mode through sending the function switching instruction, the cost problem caused by the vehicle-mounted robot can be avoided to a certain extent, and meanwhile the use experience of a user can be improved.

In the embodiment of the application, the vehicle control method can be applied to a vehicle, the vehicle can be connected with an electronic device in a wired or wireless mode, wherein the electronic device can be a mobile terminal, such as a mobile phone, a smart watch and the like.

In some embodiments, the vehicle may detect whether an electronic device is placed on a designated stand, and if so, may take the electronic device as a target electronic device. The designated support can be a support connected with a control system of the vehicle, can be placed in the middle of an instrument panel of the vehicle, or can be placed in a direction right opposite to a driver seat, or can be placed at a position where interaction with a driver is convenient, namely the designated support can be placed at a position where the face image of the driver is easy to collect, and the like, and specific placement of the designated support is not specifically limited and can be selected according to actual conditions. In addition, the designated support may also be connected to a battery management system of the vehicle, and the vehicle may charge the electronic device through the designated support when the target electronic device is placed on the designated support.

In other embodiments, the vehicle may detect whether the target electronic device is placed on a designated support of the vehicle every preset time period, may also start detecting whether the target electronic device is placed on the designated support when it is determined that the vehicle door lock is opened, or may start detecting whether the target electronic device is placed on the designated support when it is detected that a human face is present inside the vehicle, or may start detecting whether the target electronic device is placed on the designated support after it is determined that the vehicle is started, and the specific time when the detection is selected according to actual conditions, which is not described herein.

In the embodiment of the application, the target electronic device can be a designated electronic device for controlling the vehicle, and is mainly used for replacing a vehicle-mounted robot. In other words, the target electronic device may be an electronic device pre-bound with the vehicle, and the embodiment of the application may instruct the electronic device to be bound with the vehicle through the vehicle management application, and then the bound electronic device may be referred to as the target electronic device.

It should be noted that, the target electronic device may be one or multiple electronic devices, which mainly depend on the needs of the user, and when the user binds multiple electronic devices with the vehicle through the vehicle management application, the multiple electronic devices may be referred to as target electronic devices. Optionally, when there are a plurality of target electronic devices, in the embodiment of the present application, one electronic device may be selected from the plurality of target electronic devices as an optimal electronic device, where the optimal electronic device may be specified by a user, or may also be obtained by analyzing interaction data between a vehicle and each of the target electronic devices. Specifically, the historical interaction data of each target electronic device and the vehicle can be obtained, the frequency of interaction between each target electronic device and the vehicle is determined by analyzing the historical interaction data, and then the target electronic device with the maximum frequency is used as the optimal electronic device.

In other embodiments, there may be one or more designated brackets disposed on the vehicle, and when there are a plurality of designated brackets, each of the designated brackets may be installed at a different position of the vehicle, for example, one designated bracket may be disposed in front of a corresponding position of each seat, and when a user places a target electronic device on the designated bracket, the designated bracket may be used to control the vehicle, and at the same time, charging of the target electronic device may also be achieved.

It should be noted that, when there are multiple designated brackets, in the embodiment of the present application, one designated bracket may be selected from the multiple designated brackets as an optimal bracket, and the optimal bracket may be matched with an optimal electronic device, and when the optimal electronic device is placed on the optimal bracket, the optimal electronic device may control the electronic device placed on another bracket. In addition, the optimal electronic device can be placed on not only the optimal support but also other supports, so that the vehicle can be controlled by the other supports, and when any one target electronic device is placed on the optimal support, the vehicle cannot be controlled.

In addition, other target electronic devices may or may not be in one-to-one correspondence with other designated supports, and not in one-to-one correspondence means that other target electronic devices may be placed on any other designated support and control the vehicle through the any other designated support. The working states of other designated supports can be controlled through the optimal support, for example, all other designated supports can be controlled to be in the working states through the optimal support, all other designated supports can be controlled to be in the closed states through the optimal support, or other designated supports can be controlled to be in the working states through the optimal support control part, and the rest designated supports are in the closed states.

Moreover, the working modes of other specified brackets can be controlled through the optimal bracket in the embodiment of the application, and the working modes of other specified brackets can include a charging mode, a placing mode, a control mode and the like, wherein the placing mode is only used for placing electronic equipment, and the control mode can be used for controlling a vehicle, or can be a combination of multiple modes. For example, the operation mode of the other cradle is switched from the placement mode to the charging mode.

Specifically, the control mode may be a mode in which the target electronic device controls the vehicle after receiving a control instruction input by the user, and the control mode may also be a mode in which the target electronic device correspondingly executes a control operation when receiving the control instruction transmitted by the vehicle. For example, after the user wakes up a voice assistant in a vehicle by voice, the user can control the target electronic device to turn on the corresponding function and perform the corresponding operation. In other words, the relationship between the target electronic device and the vehicle in the embodiment of the present application is an interactive relationship, and the two may be mutually controlled.

Optionally, after the target electronic device is switched to the control mode, the target electronic device may exist as a part of the vehicle, and in the embodiment of the present application, content in the target electronic device may be sent to a central control display screen of the vehicle, where the content may be control data, application data stored in the target electronic device, or other data. In addition, the camera of the vehicle can also actively shoot the expression image of the user, and determine whether the user is in a fatigue state according to the expression image, and when the user is determined to be in the fatigue state, the embodiment of the application can turn on an air conditioner of the vehicle, play music, or display a corresponding expression and the like on a screen of the target electronic device.

Step S120: determining whether the target electronic device is connected with a control system of the vehicle when it is determined that the target electronic device is placed on a designated stand of the vehicle.

In some implementations, when it is determined that the target electronic device is placed on a designated cradle of the vehicle, embodiments of the present application may determine whether the target electronic device is connected with a control system of the vehicle. As can be known from the above description, the designated support is connected to the control system of the vehicle, after the target electronic device is placed on the designated support, the embodiment of the present application may determine whether the target electronic device is successfully connected to the control system of the vehicle through the designated support, and if the target electronic device is successfully connected to the control system of the vehicle, it is determined that the target electronic device is connected to the control system of the vehicle, and at this time, a function switching instruction may be sent to the target electronic device, that is, step S130 is performed.

In other embodiments, if it is determined that the target electronic device is not connected to the control system of the vehicle, the embodiment of the present application may determine whether the target electronic device is successfully placed on the designated bracket of the vehicle, and in this process, the present application may also output the prompt message, specifically, the vehicle may directly output the prompt message to the central control display screen, and prompt the user that the target electronic device is not connected to the control system of the vehicle through the central control display screen, so as to request to replace the target electronic device. In addition, in the embodiment of the application, the prompt information may also be directly output by an acousto-optic device of the vehicle, or the vehicle may also directly send the prompt information to the target electronic device to instruct the target electronic device to output the prompt information to the user.

Step S130: and sending a function switching instruction to the target electronic equipment, wherein the function switching instruction is used for switching the target electronic equipment from a normal use mode to a vehicle-mounted control mode.

In some embodiments, after determining that the target electronic device is connected to the control system of the vehicle, embodiments of the present application may send a function switching instruction to the target electronic device, where the function switching instruction is mainly used to switch the target electronic device from the normal use mode to the vehicle-mounted control mode. The normal use mode of the target electronic device may refer to an electronic device independent use mode, i.e. the normal use mode may be an operation mode of the target electronic device before the target electronic device is placed in the designated stand, which is a main operation mode of the target electronic device in which the target electronic device may make a call, chat, watch video, or listen to music, etc. The vehicle-mounted control mode can be a vehicle-mounted robot mode, the function of the target electronic equipment is similar to that of the vehicle-mounted robot in the mode, the function of the target electronic equipment in the normal working mode is reserved, and meanwhile, the function of the vehicle-mounted robot can be achieved.

In addition, after the target electronic device is switched to the vehicle-mounted control mode from the normal use mode, the application program configured in the target electronic device can also be directly projected onto a central control display screen of the vehicle. For example, a chat application named a is configured in the target electronic device, and when the target electronic device is placed in a designated rack of the vehicle and the target electronic device is connected to a control system of the vehicle, the chat application a in the target electronic device may be projected onto a center control display screen, and the user may directly use the chat application a through the center control display screen.

In other embodiments, after the target electronic device switches from the normal use mode to the vehicle-mounted control mode, the target electronic device may analyze a state of the user inside the vehicle, where the state may include a mood or an expression of the user. Specifically, the electronic device can collect facial information of the user, analyze the facial information to obtain emotion or expression of the user, and finally interact with the user based on the acquired state of the user, so that the emotion of the user can be adjusted. When the target electronic device performs expression interaction with the user, the expression content displayed by the target electronic device may change according to the expression of the user, for example, the expression of the user is more hurry, and at this time, the content displayed on the target electronic device may be lovely, as shown in fig. 3, which kind of content displayed on the target electronic device is specifically not specifically limited, and may change according to the actual situation of the user.

In a specific embodiment, when the driver drives the vehicle, the target electronic device may perform expression interaction with the driver, and when the target electronic device analyzes the expression of the driver and determines that the driver is in an exhausted driving state, the target electronic device may play music to relieve the fatigue of the driver, or may also remind the driver to have a rest in a voice form.

In the embodiment of the application, when the target electronic device is placed on the designated support of the vehicle and the target electronic device is connected with the control system of the vehicle, the target electronic device and the vehicle can be connected in a wired manner, so that the efficiency of the target electronic device for controlling the vehicle can be improved, that is, the target electronic device is not affected by the network signal when controlling the vehicle.

According to the vehicle control method, the function switching instruction is sent to the target electronic equipment to indicate the target electronic equipment to switch the operation mode of the target electronic equipment from the normal use mode to the vehicle-mounted control mode, and therefore the vehicle control cost can be reduced. Specifically, whether the target electronic device is placed on a designated support of the vehicle or not is determined, whether the target electronic device is connected with a control system of the vehicle or not is determined when the target electronic device is determined to be placed on the designated support of the vehicle, and a function switching instruction is sent to the electronic device if the target electronic device is determined to be connected with the control system of the vehicle, wherein the function switching instruction is used for switching the target electronic device from a normal use mode to an on-vehicle control mode. When the target electronic equipment is determined to be placed on the designated support of the vehicle, the electronic equipment can be indicated to be switched to the vehicle-mounted control mode from the normal use mode through sending the function switching instruction, the cost problem caused by the vehicle-mounted robot can be avoided to a certain extent, and meanwhile the use experience of a user can be improved.

As shown in fig. 4, another embodiment of the present application provides a vehicle control method, which may include the following steps S210 to S230.

Step S210: it is determined whether the target electronic device is placed on a designated cradle of the vehicle.

In this application embodiment, the main effect of appointed support is as the medium of connecting target electronic equipment and vehicle-mounted device, is provided with the module interface that charges on this appointed support, and this application embodiment can pass through the module interface that charges can awaken up the vehicle control service of presetting in the target electronic equipment. In addition, the designated support also has a magnetic attraction charging function, and the control of the Vehicle can be realized more conveniently and rapidly through the function In the embodiment of the application, so that the designated support not only can call a charging interface, but also can acquire corresponding information to a Vehicle-mounted IVI (In-Vehicle information system).

Step S220: when it is determined that the target electronic device is placed on a designated stand of the vehicle, it is determined whether the target electronic device is in a charging state.

In some embodiments, when it is determined that the target electronic device is placed on a designated cradle of the vehicle, the vehicle may determine whether the target electronic device is in a charging state, and thus the designated cradle may be used not only to communicate with a control system of the vehicle, but also to charge the target electronic device, which may control charging, emotive interaction, and the like, via a vehicle management application. Specifically, the vehicle can be charged for the target electronic device through the magnetic attraction charging mode, that is, when the target electronic device is placed on the designated support, the vehicle can be charged for the target electronic device through the magnetic attraction charging mode.

In order to more clearly understand the process of the target electronic device interacting with the vehicle, the embodiment of the application provides a block diagram of the target electronic device, and please refer to fig. 5 in detail. As can be seen from fig. 5, the target electronic device 20 may include a cell phone os layer 21 and a cell phone driver layer 22, wherein the cell phone os layer 21 may include a vehicle management application 211, the vehicle management application 211 may be an APP1, and the APP1 may include a vehicle smart device sdk; the cell phone driving layer 22 may include a magnetic attraction charging related module 221 and a Camera (Camera)222 module.

In some embodiments, after the target electronic device is placed on the designated rack of the vehicle, the vehicle-mounted smart device SDK of the vehicle management application 211 may obtain the charging status of the target electronic device, and for example, ios is taken as an example, the system level provides an interface that can obtain information such as the charging status and the electric quantity. Specifically, the vehicle-mounted intelligent device SDK can firstly acquire the current electric quantity of the target electronic device, then calculate the battery electric quantity percentage, and then give a prompt when switching according to the battery state. The content of the reminder may be "uncharged," "charging," "fully charged," or "unknown state," etc. In summary, the charging status of the target electronic device in the embodiment of the present application may include four cases, which are "uncharged", "charging", "fully charged" or "unknown status", respectively.

In other embodiments, after the vehicle management application 211 obtains the charging status of the target electronic device, it may send the charging status and the device identifier of the target electronic device to the vehicle, that is, the vehicle management application 211 may send the charging status information of the target electronic device and the device identifier of the target electronic device to the vehicle via the vehicle hardware interface by using the vehicle-mounted smart device SDK. After the vehicle receives this information, it can be determined whether the designated mount is connected to the control system of the vehicle.

As one mode, after acquiring the charging state sent by the target electronic device, the embodiment of the present application may determine whether the charging state information is charging or full, if so, it indicates that the target electronic device is connected to the control system of the vehicle, and if the charging state information of the target electronic device is not charging or is in an unknown state, it indicates that the target electronic device may not be connected to the control system of the vehicle, and at this time, a prompt message may be output, and a user may be prompted to relocate the target electronic device through the prompt message.

In summary, when it is determined that the target electronic device is placed on the designated support of the vehicle, the embodiment of the application may detect whether verification data sent by the target electronic device is received, where the verification data may include charging state information and a device identifier corresponding to the target electronic device. In the case where it is determined that the verification data transmitted by the target electronic device is received, the vehicle may determine whether the verification data meets a preset condition, which may be whether the target electronic device meets a function switching condition. The preset condition may be whether the target electronic device is in charge, the device identifier of the target electronic device is matched with the preset identifier, or whether the charge state of the target electronic device is full, and the device identifier of the target electronic device is matched with the preset identifier, and the like. When the verification data sent by the target electronic equipment is determined to meet the preset conditions, the target electronic equipment can be determined to be connected with a control system of the vehicle.

Step S230: and determining that the designated support is connected with a control system of the vehicle, and sending a function switching instruction to the target electronic equipment, wherein the function switching instruction is used for switching the target electronic equipment from a normal use mode to a vehicle-mounted control mode.

In summary, when the target electronic device is placed on the designated support that can be magnetically charged, the target electronic device may monitor the behavior through its built-in operating system, that is, the vehicle control application in the target electronic device may monitor the callable interface of the module related to magnetic charging by monitoring, so that it may be obtained that the target electronic device has been placed on the designated support and starts to be charged at the first time. Then, the embodiment of the application can wake up the vehicle about the capability of the vehicle-mounted intelligent device sdk integrated in the application program, and once the sdk capability is woken up, the target electronic device presents a corresponding expression map on the screen, and at this time, the target electronic device is successfully switched from the normal use mode to the vehicle-mounted control mode.

As one way, when it is determined that the designated stand is connected with the control system of the vehicle, the embodiment of the present application may send a function switching instruction to the target electronic device to instruct the target electronic device to switch the target electronic device from the normal use mode to the vehicle-mounted control mode through the function switching instruction. When the target electronic equipment is switched to the vehicle-mounted control mode from the normal use mode, the image acquisition device of the target electronic equipment can be triggered, the acquisition area of the image acquisition device is larger than a first angle and smaller than a second angle, the first angle can be 90 degrees, and the second angle can be 180 degrees.

In a specific embodiment, after the image capturing device on the target electronic device is triggered, the image capturing device may capture status information (such as emotion or expression) of the driver, and then analyze the emotion corresponding to the driver according to an emotion recognition algorithm, where the emotion corresponding to the driver may include positive direction, negative direction, normal direction, and the like, where the positive direction indicates that the mood of the driver is good, and the negative direction indicates that the mood of the driver is poor. And finally, the target electronic equipment can correspondingly perform expression interaction according to different emotions of the driver. Meanwhile, the target electronic device can call a built-in application program or a vehicle-configured application program to serve the driver. For example, when the target electronic device detects that the driver is tired, it may turn on a built-in music player while selecting some happy music for playing.

According to the vehicle control method, the function switching instruction is sent to the target electronic equipment to indicate the target electronic equipment to switch the operation mode of the target electronic equipment from the normal use mode to the vehicle-mounted control mode, and therefore the vehicle control cost can be reduced. Specifically, whether the target electronic device is placed on a designated support of the vehicle or not is determined, whether the target electronic device is connected with a control system of the vehicle or not is determined when the target electronic device is determined to be placed on the designated support of the vehicle, and a function switching instruction is sent to the electronic device if the target electronic device is determined to be connected with the control system of the vehicle, wherein the function switching instruction is used for switching the target electronic device from a normal use mode to an on-vehicle control mode. When the target electronic equipment is determined to be placed on the designated support of the vehicle, the electronic equipment can be indicated to be switched to the vehicle-mounted control mode from the normal use mode through sending the function switching instruction, the cost problem caused by the vehicle-mounted robot can be avoided to a certain extent, and meanwhile the use experience of a user can be improved. In addition, the mode switching function of the target electronic equipment is triggered through charging, so that the triggering mode is simple and easy to achieve, and the user experience is better.
