Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to a method, a computer program with instructions and a device for adapting settings of components of a means of transportation (Fortbewegungsmittel). The invention also relates to a means of transport in which the method according to the invention or the device according to the invention is used.
Background
Many vehicles, such as motor vehicles, provide user-personalized settings that can be set by a user and stored for that user, for example in a memory of the vehicle or in an online account. The stored settings may then be recalled at a later point in time, for example, when other users have changed the settings. When switching between sets of settings for different users of a vehicle, it is often necessary to change a very large number of different settings simultaneously. Potentially security critical settings are also changed at the time of the handover. Thus, it may be necessary to alert the user or wait for confirmation of the user before activating the changed settings. This may be the case, for example, when activating these settings would cause distraction to the operator (beiener) of the vehicle, for example, in the case of adjusting a rear view mirror. Likewise, for reasons of functional safety or product liability, for example when moving the seat position of the operator of the vehicle, it may be necessary to first stop (anhalten) or to solicit (einholen) an unambiguous confirmation. Furthermore, the following situation may arise: as a result of the activation of these settings, the (aktiv) auxiliary system activated up to now is switched off (abscalante), without the operator noticing this. Otherwise, the operator may continue to believe that the corresponding system is still active, such as a stopping distance sensor or a dead-angle assistant.
Thus, when switching to a further set of settings, the operator must be informed which critical settings of the system of the vehicle are to be changed thereby. Here, only truly relevant information should also be provided to the user. Therefore, the operator should be notified only when a truly relevant setting is changed due to the switching. In this case, it must be taken into account whether a corresponding system is installed in the vehicle at all, which system contains such potentially dangerous settings. In addition, it must be considered whether such potentially dangerous settings are indeed altered by switching the user's setting set, since the old setting set and the new setting set may contain the same values.
The identification of the information or warnings to be displayed in relation to the safety-critical settings to be switched is technically very complex, since the identification must take into account a large number of different equipment of the means of transport with different modes of operation.
Therefore, often only a fixed (pauschal), always the same warning is displayed, for example the vehicle seat may move. And may lead to misunderstandings by the user if no corresponding equipment is available at all in the vehicle or if the settings are not changed at all at the time of the switch.
One possible solution to simplify the identification of the information to be displayed is to combine (vereinen) a large number of functions in a single control device. For these functions, information about the safety-critical settings to be switched is then available directly in the control device.
For example, DE 102009019957 a1 describes a vehicle with a computer unit. The computer unit is a central computer unit, in which at least two control devices are integrated and which is arranged in the interior of the vehicle and controls or regulates a plurality of different vehicle functions.
However, depending on the equipment variant, different functions are available in the vehicle. Thus, either a different control device adapted to these functions has to be provided or a general control device covering also functions that may not be available. In both cases, the control device is very expensive, which is disadvantageous, in particular, in the case of maintenance.
Thus, user settings are often provided by a single central control device, a so-called Online Connectivity Unit (OCU), which may be equipped with an internet connection. In which functions that can be dangerous by automatically adopting the changed settings are implemented distributively in other control devices in the vehicle without user interaction. These further control devices communicate with the central control device via a bus system.
In this respect, EP 1773613B 1 describes a motor vehicle which comprises a plurality of electrically operable control devices (stellenarichtung) which are provided for carrying out one or more vehicle guiding functions. The regulating means which perform at least some of the vehicle guiding functions are operated by a central vehicle guiding control device comprising at least one microcontroller. The microcontroller is equipped with a Memory Management Unit (MMU) for assigning virtual memory areas to software programs, wherein each software program is assigned to a vehicle guidance function.
Disclosure of Invention
The object of the invention is to provide an improved solution for adapting the arrangement of components of a vehicle.
This object is achieved by a method having the features according to the invention, a computer program having instructions according to the invention and an apparatus having the features according to the invention. Preferred embodiments of the invention are the subject matter described below.
According to a first aspect of the invention, a method for adapting settings of a component of a vehicle comprises the steps of:
-sending a request for adapting the settings to a control device for the component;
-receiving feedback of the control device about conditions for adapting the settings;
-checking whether a condition for adapting the settings is fulfilled; and
-if a condition for adapting the settings is fulfilled, sending a permission (Freigabe) for adapting the settings to the control device.
According to another aspect of the invention, a computer program contains instructions which, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to perform the following steps for adapting settings of a component of a vehicle:
-sending a request for adapting the settings to a control device for the component;
-receiving feedback of the control device about conditions for adapting the settings;
-checking whether a condition for adapting the settings is fulfilled; and
-if a condition for adapting the settings is fulfilled, sending permission for adapting the settings to the control device.
The term "computer" is to be understood broadly herein. In particular, the computer also comprises a control device, an embedded system and a further processor-based data processing device.
The computer program may for example be provided for electronic invocation or may be stored on a computer readable storage medium.
According to another aspect of the invention, a device for adapting the settings of a component of a vehicle has:
-a sending module for sending a request for adapting the settings to a control device for the component and for sending permission for adapting the settings to the control device if a condition for adapting the settings is fulfilled;
-a receiving module for receiving feedback of the control device regarding conditions for adapting the settings; and
-a checking module for checking whether a condition for adapting the settings is fulfilled.
A central control device for providing settings for further control devices is usually not aware of what effects if the settings in the control devices are changed within the scope of synchronization (Rahmen). The synchronization may for example consist in: comparing (Abgleich) the settings stored in the user's online account for the user of the vehicle with the settings currently activated in the vehicle. After such a comparison, possibly a plurality of settings of the vehicle must then be changed simultaneously. From the point of view of the central control device, in the solution according to the invention, the control device of a component is first informed by the central control device that one or more settings should be changed, within the scope of switching between sets of settings. The changed settings have now not become active immediately in the control device of the component. Upon receiving the updated settings, the control device of the component compares the updated settings with currently active settings and reports to the central control device: whether these new settings can be activated immediately; or whether a condition must first be satisfied. The central control device receives this information and checks whether the condition is fulfilled. Corresponding measures can be taken to satisfy the conditions if necessary. If these settings can now be activated as a result of the condition being met, the central control device will correspondingly notify the control devices of the components. The control device of the component can then activate these new settings.
With the solution according to the invention, the central control device does not require any knowledge about which settings are associated with a particular precondition. Instead, the central control device automatically obtains the necessary information from the participating control devices and may then, for example, generate a corresponding warning. In this way, the adaptation of the arrangement is made significantly easier, since the central control device no longer has to take into account a large number of different equipment of the vehicle with different modes of operation.
According to another aspect of the invention, a method for adapting settings of a component of a vehicle comprises the steps of:
-receiving a request for adapting the settings from a central control device;
-sending feedback to the central control device about conditions for adapting the settings;
-receiving permission to adapt the settings from the central control device if a condition for adapting the settings is fulfilled; and
-adapting the settings in response to receiving the permission.
According to another aspect of the invention, a computer program contains instructions which, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to perform the following steps for adapting settings of a component of a vehicle:
-receiving a request for adapting the settings from a central control device;
-sending feedback to the central control device about conditions for adapting the settings;
-receiving permission to adapt the settings from the central control device if a condition for adapting the settings is fulfilled; and
-adapting the settings in response to receiving the permission.
The term "computer" is to be understood broadly herein. In particular, the computer comprises in particular a control device, an embedded system and a further processor-based data processing device.
The computer program may for example be provided for electronic invocation or may be stored on a computer readable storage medium.
According to another aspect of the invention, a device for adapting the settings of a component of a vehicle has:
-a receiving module for receiving a request from a central control device for adapting the settings and for receiving permission from the central control device for adapting the settings if a condition for adapting the settings is fulfilled;
-a sending module for sending feedback to the central control device about conditions for adapting the settings; and
-a control module for adapting the settings in response to receiving the permission.
From the point of view of the control devices for the components, the control device in the solution according to the invention first receives a request to change one or more settings from the central control device within the scope of switching between the sets of settings. The changed settings have now not become active immediately in the control device of the component.
Alternatively, the control device first compares the changed setting with the currently activated setting and reports to the central control device: whether these new settings can be activated immediately; or whether a condition must first be satisfied. The central control device receives this information for checking. The control devices of the components activate these new settings only upon receiving the corresponding permissions sent by the central control device.
According to an aspect of the invention, the condition comprises a requirement for user interaction or the presence of a predetermined state of the vehicle. The user interaction may for example consist in: output information or warnings to the user or solicit an explicit confirmation. This can be advantageous, for example, if activating the setting would lead to operator distraction of the vehicle or if the operator should be informed that the auxiliary system activated so far is switched off. In view of the predefined state of the vehicle, for example for reasons of product liability, it may be necessary to first stop before a setting can be changed, for example when moving the driver's seat position.
According to one aspect of the invention, the predetermined state of the vehicle is a stationary state (Stillstand) of the vehicle, an ignition that has been switched off or a speed threshold of the vehicle being exceeded or fallen below. For reasons of product liability, certain safety-critical settings should or should be allowed to be carried out only in the stationary state of the vehicle, for example seat adjustments of the driver's seat. In some cases, for example for an electric steering wheel adjustment, it may even be required to allow the setting only if the ignition has been switched off. If necessary, the automatic speed regulation can only be activated above a predefined minimum speed, whereas the congestion assistant can only be activated below a predefined maximum speed.
According to one aspect of the invention, interaction with a user is initiated by means of a user interface in response to a need for user interaction. For this purpose, the central control device can for example send corresponding instructions to the control devices of the user interface. This is achieved in this way: the required user interaction is performed without unnecessary time delay.
According to one aspect of the invention, settings of two or more components of the vehicle are adapted, wherein the adaptation of the settings is permitted only if all conditions are met. This ensures that as complete a change of the settings as possible is done in one process.
The method according to the invention or the device according to the invention is particularly advantageously used in a vehicle, for example in a motor vehicle. However, the vehicle may also be an aircraft, such as a rental airplane, a Volocopropter (manned unmanned aerial vehicle), or the like.

Detailed Description
Fig. 1 schematically shows a method for adapting the settings of components of a vehicle from the perspective of a central control device. In a first step 10, a request for adapting the settings is sent to a control device for the component. Feedback of the control device about conditions for adapting the settings is then received 11. The condition may be, for example, a requirement for user interaction or the presence of a predefined state of the vehicle, for example a stationary state of the vehicle, an ignition which has been switched off, or a speed threshold of the vehicle being exceeded or undershot. It is then checked 12 whether the conditions for adapting the settings are fulfilled. To this end, in response to a need for user interaction, interaction with the user may first be initiated by means of the user interface. If the conditions for adapting the settings are fulfilled, permission for adapting the settings is sent 13 to the control device. If the settings of two or more components of the vehicle should be adapted, the adaptation of the settings is preferably permitted only if all conditions are met.
Fig. 2 shows a simplified schematic diagram of a first embodiment of a device 20 for adapting the settings of components of a vehicle, implemented on the side of a central control device. The device 20 has a communication interface 21 via which communication interface 21 the sending module 22 can send a request for adapting the settings to the control device 62 for the component. In addition, the receiving module 23 may receive feedback of the control device 62 via the communication interface 21 regarding the conditions for adapting the settings. The condition may be, for example, a requirement for user interaction or the presence of a predetermined state of the vehicle, for example a stationary state of the vehicle, an ignition which has been switched off, or a speed threshold of the vehicle being exceeded or undershot. The checking module 24 is set up to check whether the conditions for adapting the settings are fulfilled. To this end, in response to a need for user interaction, the inspection module 24 may first initiate interaction with the user by means of a user interface. The sending module 22 sends permission to adapt the settings to the control device 62 via the communication interface 21 if the conditions for adapting the settings are fulfilled. If the settings of two or more components of the vehicle should be adapted, the sending module 22 preferably sends permission to adapt the settings only if all conditions are met.
The sending module 22, the receiving module 23 and the checking module 24 may be controlled by a monitoring module (kontrol module) 25. The settings of the sending module 22, the receiving module 23, the checking module 24 or the monitoring module 25 may be changed as necessary via the user interface 27. Data accumulated in device 20 may be stored in memory 26 of device 20, if desired, for use, for example, for later evaluation or by components of device 20. The sending module 22, the receiving module 23, the checking module 24 and the monitoring module 25 may be implemented as dedicated hardware, for example as an integrated circuit. However, they may of course also be combined or implemented partly or completely as software running on a suitable processor, e.g. a GPU or a CPU. Instead of a bidirectional communication interface 21, the input and output can also be implemented as separate interfaces. The apparatus 20 is implemented as a stand-alone component in fig. 2. However, the device 20 may also be integrated into the central control device.
Fig. 3 shows a simplified schematic view of a second embodiment of a device 30 for adapting the setting of components of a vehicle. The device 30 is implemented on the side of a central control device and has a processor 32 and a memory 31. The device 30 is, for example, the central control device or an embedded system. In the memory 31 there are stored instructions which, when executed by the processor 32, cause the device 30 to carry out the steps according to one of the described methods. The instructions stored in the memory 31 thus embody a program executable by the processor 32, which program implements the method according to the invention. The device 30 has an input 33 for receiving information, in particular feedback of a control device of the component whose setting should be adapted. The data generated by the processor 32 is provided via an output 34. In addition, these data may be stored in the memory 31. The input 33 and output 34 may be combined into a bi-directional interface.
The processor 32 may include one or more processor units, such as a microprocessor, a digital signal processor, or a combination thereof.
The memories 26, 31 of the described embodiments may have both volatile and non-volatile storage areas and may include a wide variety of storage devices and storage media, such as hard disks, optical storage media, or semiconductor memories.
Fig. 4 schematically shows a method for adapting the settings of a component of a vehicle from the perspective of a control device for the component. In a first step 15, a request for adapting the settings is received from a central control device. Feedback regarding the conditions for adapting the settings is then sent 16 to the central control device. The condition may be, for example, a requirement for user interaction or the presence of a predefined state of the vehicle, for example a stationary state of the vehicle, an ignition which has been switched off, or a speed threshold of the vehicle being exceeded or undershot. If the conditions for adapting the settings are fulfilled, permission for adapting the settings is received 17 from the central control device. Finally, the settings of the component are adapted 18 in response to receiving 17 the permission.
Fig. 5 shows a simplified schematic illustration of a first embodiment of a device 40 for adapting the settings of a component of a vehicle, wherein the device 40 is implemented on the control device side for the component. The device 40 has a communication interface 41, via which communication interface 41 the receiving module 42 can receive a request for adapting the settings from the central control device 63. In addition, via the communication interface 41, the sending module 43 may send feedback to the central control device 63 about the conditions for adapting the settings. The condition may be, for example, a requirement for user interaction or the presence of a predefined state of the vehicle, for example a stationary state of the vehicle, an ignition which has been switched off, or a speed threshold of the vehicle being exceeded or undershot. The receiving module 42 receives permission to adapt the settings from the central control apparatus 63 via the communication interface 41 if the conditions for adapting the settings are fulfilled. The control module 44 is set up to adapt the settings of the components in response to receiving the permission.
The receiving module 42, the sending module 43 and the control module 44 may be controlled by a monitoring module 45. The settings of the receiving module 42, the transmitting module 43, the checking module 44 or the control module 45 may be changed as necessary via the user interface 47. Data accumulated in device 40 may be stored in memory 46 of device 40, if desired, for use, for example, for later evaluation or by components of device 40. The receiving module 42, the transmitting module 43, the control module 44 and the monitoring module 45 may be implemented as dedicated hardware, for example as integrated circuits. However, they may of course also be combined or implemented partly or completely as software running on a suitable processor, e.g. a GPU or a CPU. Instead of a bidirectional communication interface 41, the input and output can also be implemented as separate interfaces. The device 40 is implemented as a stand-alone component in fig. 5. However, the device 40 can also be integrated into the control device for the component.
Fig. 6 shows a simplified schematic view of a second embodiment of a device 50 for adapting the setting of components of a vehicle. The device 50 is implemented on the control device side for the components and has a processor 52 and a memory 51. The device 50 is, for example, a control device or an embedded system. In the memory 51 instructions are stored which, when executed by the processor 52, cause the device 50 to perform the steps according to one of the described methods. The instructions stored in the memory 51 thus embody a program executable by the processor 52, which program implements the method according to the invention. The device 50 has an input 53 for receiving information transmitted from the central control device, in particular a request for adapting the settings and the associated permissions 53. The data generated by the processor 52 is provided via an output 54. Further, these data may be stored in the memory 51. The input 53 and output 54 may be combined into a bi-directional interface.
The memories 46, 51 of the described embodiments may have both volatile and non-volatile storage areas and may include a wide variety of storage devices and storage media, such as hard disks, optical storage media, or semiconductor memories.
Fig. 7 schematically shows a vehicle 60 in which the solution according to the invention is implemented. In this example, the vehicle 60 is a motor vehicle. The motor vehicle has a series of settable assemblies 61, two of which are shown by way of example. The settable assembly 61 is for example a vehicle seat, an inside rear view mirror and an outside rear view mirror, an auxiliary system that can be activated or deactivated, etc. The settable assemblies 61 are each controlled by an associated control device 62, the control device 62 also taking care of a plurality of settable assemblies 61 if necessary. For example, the driver's seat and the co-driver's seat may be controlled by a common control device 62. The control devices 62 are each assigned a device 40 according to the invention for adapting the settings of the settable component 61. Alternatively, the device can also be integrated into the respective control device 62. The settings of the settable assemblies 61 are provided by a single central control apparatus 63 to the control apparatuses 62 for different users. The device 20 according to the invention for adapting the settings of the settable component 61 is assigned to the central control device 63. Alternatively, the device 20 can also be integrated into the central control device 63. User interactions which may be required in the context of adapting the settings of the settable component 61 may be made by means of the user interface 64. The user interface 64 may be implemented, for example, as an infotainment system of the motor vehicle. A further component of the motor vehicle is a data transmission unit 65, by means of which, for example, a connection can be established to a backend, which provides an online account of a user of the motor vehicle with a set of settings for the user. A memory 66 is present for storing data. Data exchange between the different components of the motor vehicle takes place via a network 67.
