2) In response to the condition or state on which the performed operation depends, one or more of the performed operations may be in real-time or may have a set delay when the dependent condition or state is satisfied; there is no restriction on the order of execution of the operations performed unless otherwise specified.

The applicant finds that, in order to facilitate a user to quickly find a vehicle, a related technology generally obtains parking position information of the vehicle based on a field-side modification technology or a vehicle-side modification technology, wherein the field-side modification technology is mainly used for installing a large number of sensors such as video monitoring cameras, bluetooth beacons or laser radars in a parking lot or providing an automatic guided vehicle in an indoor parking lot, and the vehicle-side modification technology is mainly based on an automatic valet parking technology.

Referring to fig. 1A, fig. 1A is a schematic view of a license plate recognition mode based on a video provided in an embodiment of the present application, a large number of fixed surveillance cameras are installed in a parking lot to cover substantially all parking spots, when a user enters the parking lot based on indication information of an entrance information screen of the parking lot to complete parking, the surveillance cameras can capture an image containing license plate information and upload the captured image to a parking lot management cloud platform (i.e., a central server), the platform performs a series of operations such as image preprocessing (e.g., gray scale enhancement, noise processing), license plate area positioning (e.g., based on color space/edge information), character segmentation, character recognition, and the like on the image, and outputs a corresponding license plate number on the parking spot; when a user inputs a license plate number through a query terminal device (terminal query machine) positioned in a parking lot, the platform matches the license plate number input by the user with the license plate number corresponding to each parking space to obtain the position of the parking space corresponding to the matched license plate number, informs the user of navigation information from the current position to the parking space, and completes reverse vehicle searching; however, the cost of the whole set of hardware equipment required by the method is too high, and when the number of car searching users is large and the number of inquiry terminal equipment is small, the users need to queue for car searching, the car searching time is long, and the car searching efficiency is low.

Referring to fig. 1B, fig. 1B is a schematic diagram of an indoor navigation mode based on bluetooth beacons, where a large number of bluetooth beacons are laid in an indoor parking lot to achieve full coverage of the indoor parking lot, a bluetooth base station continuously broadcasts signals and data packets to the surroundings, and after a user enters an effective range, the user communicates with the bluetooth beacons of the indoor parking lot through terminal devices such as a mobile phone and measures Signal field Strength Indication (RSSI) values of the terminal devices under different base stations, and then measures a specific position through a positioning algorithm built in the terminal device, so as to finally provide parking space positioning for the user, quickly guide the vehicle owner to the parking space to park, and record parking position information for reverse vehicle finding after parking; however, the bluetooth beacon installation cost involved in this method is too high, and the bluetooth function of the terminal device needs to be turned on before navigation, and the parking position information of the vehicle cannot be known when the user forgets to turn on the bluetooth function.

Referring to fig. 1C, fig. 1C is a schematic diagram of an unmanned parking mode based on an automated guided vehicle according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, where a large number of automated guided vehicles are configured in an indoor parking lot, and a plurality of sensors are configured on the automated guided vehicles to implement unmanned parking and scheduling, when a user needs to park a vehicle, the user directly parks the vehicle at a designated location, and transports the vehicle from the designated location to a designated idle parking space by the automated guided vehicle; however, the technical implementation difficulty of the method for automatically guiding the transport vehicle is high, and the modification difficulty of most parking lots is also high.

In addition, in an automatic passenger-replacing parking mode based on automatic driving, a large number of sensors such as laser radars and ultrasonic radars are installed in an indoor parking lot, field end communication is enhanced, an internal parking lot model is established, parking lot allocation and route planning are carried out on different vehicles through a unified parking lot management platform, the vehicles only need to analyze and execute driving commands transmitted from a cloud, for example, a user sends positioning to the vehicles through terminal equipment at a connection point, the vehicles automatically leave a warehouse based on the positioning sent by the terminal equipment, and the vehicles automatically drive to the connection point at a low speed; however, this method requires a plurality of sensors such as a camera, a laser radar, and an ultrasonic radar, and has a high hardware cost, and it is also required to verify whether the low-speed automatic driving is applicable to a large and complicated underground parking lot.

The technical scheme of vehicle end transformation is mainly based on an automatic passenger-replacing parking technology, a driver does not need to operate, a vehicle can independently find a parking space after the driver gets off the vehicle, the parking is automatically completed, and the vehicle automatically drives to an appointed position when the driver needs to get the vehicle.

Therefore, the method requires higher requirements on hardware equipment of the vehicle and other supporting facilities, and has higher cost.

Therefore, a parking lot needs to be modified on a large scale based on a field end modification technical scheme, enough sensors are mounted to cover each parking space in the parking lot, the vehicle end modification technology needs to carry high-precision and high-cost sensors at a vehicle end to achieve automatic driving, and for most parking lots and driving users, the modification cost is high, large-scale landing application is basically impossible, so that the users cannot find own vehicles under the condition that the modified parking lot or the vehicles which cannot achieve automatic driving do not exist, and the vehicle searching efficiency is low.

In view of this, embodiments of the present application provide a vehicle searching method, apparatus, device and computer-readable storage medium, so that parking position information of a vehicle can be obtained based on a low-cost vehicle-mounted device, a large-scale installation of hardware devices in each parking lot is not required, and it is also not required to depend on whether the vehicle has an automatic driving technology, thereby greatly reducing hardware cost and improving vehicle searching efficiency.

Next, an exemplary application of the embodiment of the present application in a practical application scenario will be described. Taking the vehicle-mounted device in the terminal 200 (user mobile terminal), the server 300 (cloud server), and the vehicle terminal 400 (target vehicle) shown in fig. 2 to cooperatively implement the vehicle searching method provided in the embodiment of the present application as an example, the vehicle searching method provided in the embodiment of the present application is continuously described. The vehicle searching method provided by the embodiment of the application can be applied to scenes that a user parks in an indoor parking lot, parks in an outdoor parking lot and the like.

Referring to fig. 13, fig. 13 is a schematic view of a vehicle searching method provided in the embodiment of the present application, and when a user parks a vehicle in an indoor parking place, the vehicle searching method provided in the embodiment of the present application may be implemented by the following steps:

step 201: the user drives the target vehicle to travel.

Step 202: and the vehicle-mounted equipment of the target vehicle judges whether the target vehicle drives into the underground parking lot.

In practical applications, before a user drives a target vehicle into a parking lot, whether vehicle-mounted devices such as a vehicle-mounted recorder, a vehicle-mounted camera, a vehicle-mounted positioning system and the like in front of the target vehicle are started or not can be judged, and when the vehicle-mounted devices of the target vehicle are not started, the vehicle-mounted devices need to be started first.

After the vehicle-mounted device is started, the driving information (such as driving video and the like) collected by the vehicle-mounted device can be analyzed, whether the target vehicle drives into the underground parking lot or not is judged, when the target vehicle does not drive into the underground parking lot, step 203 is executed, and otherwise, step 204 is executed.

Step 203: the vehicle finding application is not started.

Step 204: and starting the vehicle searching application.

Step 205: the vehicle-mounted device collects parking information.

When a user sets a target vehicle through a vehicle-finding application, the user mobile terminal and the vehicle-finding application need to be bound firstly, when the user mobile terminal is bound, the device identifier of the user mobile terminal, the license plate number of the target vehicle and the vehicle-finding application are bound, when the user drives the target vehicle to park, the vehicle-finding application is started, and vehicle-mounted equipment of the target vehicle collects parking information of the target vehicle in the parking process, such as parking videos, positioning information and the like.

Step 206: and the target vehicle judges whether parking is finished.

In the parking process of the target vehicle, the vehicle-mounted positioning system of the target vehicle positions the position of the target vehicle in real time, acquires the parking track of the target vehicle through an accelerometer and a gyroscope of the target vehicle, and represents that the target vehicle has finished parking when the positioning shows that the position of the target vehicle in the target time period is unchanged and the running speed and the acceleration of the target vehicle are zero, and executes step 207; otherwise, the target vehicle does not complete parking, and execution continues at step 205.

In addition, the parking of the target vehicle can be represented by detecting the working state of the engine of the target vehicle when the engine is switched off or is switched off, and the parking of the target vehicle is not represented when the engine is in the working state.

Step 207: and the vehicle-mounted equipment uploads the collected parking information to the server.

In practical applications, in order to improve the transmission efficiency of information and reduce the resource consumption of the transmission information, before uploading the acquired parking information to the server, the vehicle-mounted device may perform screening and compression processing on the parking information, for example, perform processing such as frame extraction and compression on a video frame image associated with a parking space in a parking video acquired by the vehicle-mounted camera, and upload the processed parking information to the server.

Through the above steps 201 to 207, the parking of the target vehicle can be completed.

Step 208: and the server identifies the parking information to obtain the parking space information of the target vehicle.

Here, the server performs recognition processing on parking information uploaded by the vehicle-mounted device in the vehicle end, for example, performs parking space recognition on a video frame image in a parking video to obtain parking space information such as a parking space number associated with a parking space and a region and the number of layers where the parking space is located, or analyzes positioning information such as a numerical value of a vehicle-mounted positioning system (such as an accelerometer and a gyroscope), calculates a parking trajectory of a target vehicle by integrating an acceleration and a direction angle, and determines a final position where the parking space is located.

Step 209: the server determines a download link of the parking video and the parking trajectory of the target vehicle based on the parking information.

Step 210: and the server aggregates the parking position information of the target vehicle, the parking video of the target vehicle and the download link of the parking track to obtain the parking position information of the target vehicle.

Through the steps 208 to 210, the parking position information of the target vehicle can be determined, and the parking position information of the target vehicle can be transmitted to the corresponding user mobile terminal.

Step 211: the user searches for a car-finding application in the terminal.

Here, when the user needs to pick up a car, car-finding applications in the user mobile terminal, such as a car-finding client, an applet, a public number, etc. for finding a car, such as a car-finding function item "car-finding assistant" in fig. 5A, may be searched.

Step 212: and the terminal responds to a vehicle searching instruction triggered based on the vehicle searching application and presents the parking position information of the target vehicle in the parking position page.

Here, the parking space number of the target vehicle, the parking space information and the parking track such as the area where the parking space is located and the number of layers can be presented in the parking position page, and the parking video of the target vehicle can be played in the parking position page.

Through the steps 211 to 212, the parking position information of the target vehicle can be obtained, and the user can quickly find the target vehicle based on the parking position information of the target vehicle.

When a user parks in an outdoor parking place, because a Global Positioning System (GPS) signal exists but no parking place number exists, and the number of layers and areas where parking places are located and other parking place information exist, after the fact that the target vehicle is judged to be parked, the obtained accurate GPS position is directly sent to the user terminal, or the parking position information, namely the final parking absolute position of the target vehicle, is directly sent to the user mobile terminal to assist the user in finding the vehicle.

In practical application, when the view interface of the mobile terminal is large enough, the parking position information, the parking video and the parking track of the target vehicle can be displayed on the same page, and a user can select to view the parking information of the target vehicle at the same time.

Referring to fig. 14A-14B, fig. 14A-14B are schematic diagrams of a car-finding interface provided in the embodiment of the present application, in fig. 14A, when a user clicks a car-finding application, that is, a "car-finding assistant" in a user mobile terminal, the user mobile terminal determines that a parking record exists in a target time period (for example, 24 hours) and a parking position of a target vehicle is located in an indoor parking lot in response to a car-finding instruction triggered based on the car-finding application, directly presents a parking position page, and presents a number of parking places corresponding to the parking places of the target vehicle, a number of layers and an area where the parking places are located, a parking video corresponding to the target vehicle, and a map of the parking area corresponding to the target vehicle in the parking position page, and presents an absolute position of the parking places in the map.

In fig. 14B, when the user clicks a vehicle finding application, i.e. a "vehicle finding assistant" in the user mobile terminal, in response to a vehicle finding instruction triggered based on the vehicle finding application, the user mobile terminal determines that a parking record exists in a target time period (e.g. 24 hours) for the target vehicle and the parking location of the target vehicle is located in an outdoor parking lot, directly presents a parking location page, presents a parking video corresponding to the target vehicle and a map of a parking area corresponding to the target vehicle in the parking location page, presents an absolute location where the target vehicle parks in the map, and may also present a navigation function item (e.g. viewing a vehicle finding route) for the absolute location, and when the user mobile terminal receives a triggering operation for the navigation function item, may directly present a navigation route for guiding the user to reach the absolute location in the navigation map so that the user can reach the parking location according to the navigation route, the vehicle searching efficiency is improved.

As shown in fig. 6A, when a user clicks a vehicle finding application, namely a "vehicle finding assistant" in the user mobile terminal, in response to a vehicle finding instruction triggered based on the vehicle finding application, and it is determined that a target vehicle does not have a parking record within a target time period (for example, 24 hours), a parking record page for the target vehicle is first presented, and at least one parking record selectable in the parking record page is presented, and when the user selects the target parking record based on the parking record page, the terminal presents a parking location page of the target vehicle corresponding to the target parking record, and presents parking location information of the target vehicle corresponding to the selected target parking record in the parking location page.
