Description

L'invention concerne les équipements de communication non filaire qui peuvent être temporairement présents dans des véhicules, et plus précisément l'avertissement d'une personne lorsqu'elle oublie son équipement de communication non filaire dans un véhicule.The invention relates to non-wired communication equipment that may be temporarily present in vehicles, and more specifically to the warning of a person when he forgets his wireless communication equipment in a vehicle.

Aujourd'hui, de nombreuses personnes disposent d'un équipement de communication non filaire qu'elles emportent avec elles dans leur véhicule afin de le connecter à leur module de communication et/ou à leur réseau d'alimentation électrique (pour le recharger). Lorsque ces personnes quittent leur véhicule, il arrive qu'elles oublient leur équipement de communication non filaire dans l'habitacle du véhicule.Today, many people have wireless communication equipment that they carry with them in their vehicle to connect to their communication module and / or their power network (to recharge it). When these people leave their vehicles, they sometimes forget their wireless communication equipment in the passenger compartment of the vehicle.

Plusieurs solutions ont été proposées pour avertir les personnes de leur oubli.Several solutions have been proposed to warn people of their forgetfulness.

Ainsi, il a été proposé dans le document brevet FR 2971877 d'équiper le véhicule d'un dispositif de chargement couplé à son réseau d'alimentation électrique et destiné à permettre le rechargement d'un équipement de communication non filaire et à avertir, avec des moyens de signalisation de ce dernier ou du véhicule, lorsque l'équipement de communication non filaire n'est plus en phase de recharge et que son usager décide de quitter le véhicule.Thus, it has been proposed in the patent document FR 2971877 to equip the vehicle with a charging device coupled to its power supply network and intended to allow the recharging of a wireless communication equipment and to warn, with means of signaling the latter or the vehicle, when the wireless communication equipment is no longer charging and its user decides to leave the vehicle.

Cette solution impose que le véhicule soit équipé d'un dispositif de chargement spécifique et ne permet d'alerter l'usager quittant le véhicule qu'en cas d'interruption d'une phase de recharge consécutive à l'arrêt du moteur. Par conséquent, elle nécessite une adaptation du véhicule, et, lorsque l'équipement de communication non filaire n'interagit pas avec le dispositif de chargement, l'usager ne peut pas être averti, ce qui est assez fréquent.This solution requires that the vehicle is equipped with a specific loading device and can alert the user leaving the vehicle only in case of interruption of a recharge phase following the engine stop. Therefore, it requires an adaptation of the vehicle, and when the non-wired communication equipment does not interact with the charging device, the user can not be warned, which is quite common.

Il a également été proposé d'alerter l'usager lorsque la connexion Bluetooth entre son équipement de communication non filaire et un autre équipement de communication est interrompue. Cette solution, qui n'est pas dédiée aux véhicules, provoque l'alerte de l'usager chaque fois qu'il quitte son véhicule du fait que la connexion Bluetooth est interrompue, indépendamment du fait qu'il ait oublié ou non son équipement de communication non filaire dans l'habitacle du véhicule. Cela peut s'avérer gênant, en particulier pour les usagers qui oublient rarement leur équipement de communication non filaire dans leur véhicule. De plus, cette solution ne peut pas alerter l'usager lorsque l'équipement de communication non filaire est seulement en phase de recharge et qu'il n'avait pas établi de connexion Bluetooth avec un autre équipement de communication du véhicule. GB2502590 divulgue un dispositif comportant un premier détecteur pour détecteur qu'un conducteur quitte son véhicule, et un second détecteur pour détecter que son équipement mobile est connecté au véhicule. Une alerte est générée selon l'état des détections. L'invention a donc notamment pour but d'améliorer la situation.It was also proposed to alert the user when the connection Bluetooth between its wireless communication equipment and other communication equipment is interrupted. This solution, which is not dedicated to vehicles, causes the user to be alerted every time he leaves his vehicle because the Bluetooth connection is interrupted, regardless of whether or not he has forgotten his equipment. non-wired communication in the passenger compartment of the vehicle. This can be inconvenient, especially for users who rarely forget their wireless communication equipment in their vehicle. In addition, this solution can not alert the user when the wireless communication equipment is only charging and has not established a Bluetooth connection with other communication equipment of the vehicle. GB2502590 discloses a device comprising a first detector for a detector that a driver leaves his vehicle, and a second detector for detecting that his mobile equipment is connected to the vehicle. An alert is generated according to the state of detections. The invention is therefore particularly intended to improve the situation.

Elle propose notamment à cet effet un dispositif de détection, destiné à faire partie d'un équipement de communication non filaire d'une personne propre à s'installer dans un poste de conduite d'un véhicule comprenant un module de communication et un réseau d'alimentation électrique auxquels cet équipement de communication est propre à se connecter, et comprenant :

  • des moyens de détection agencés pour détecter une déconnexion de l'équipement de communication du module de communication et/ou du réseau d'alimentation électrique et un début de départ de la personne du poste de conduite, et
  • des moyens de contrôle agencés pour fournir une information de déplacement dudit équipement de communication et pour provoquer la génération d'au moins un message d'alerte par l'équipement de communication lorsque ce dernier n'est pas déplacé pendant une durée prédéfinie suivant cette détection.
It proposes for this purpose a detection device, intended to be part of a non-wired communication equipment of a person adapted to settle in a driving position of a vehicle comprising a communication module and a network of power supply to which this communication equipment is adapted to connect, and comprising:
  • detection means arranged to detect a disconnection of the communication equipment of the communication module and / or the power supply network and a start of departure of the person from the driving position, and
  • control means arranged to provide information for moving said communication equipment and to cause the generation of at least one alert message by the communication equipment when the latter is not moved for a predefined period following this detection .

Ainsi, le dispositif de détection ne provoque la génération d'au moins un signal d'alerte par son équipement de communication qu'à la triple condition que l'équipement de communication ne soit pas déplacé dans le véhicule, qu'il ne soit plus connecté à ce dernier et que son usager soit en train de quitter ce véhicule. Si l'usager utilise son équipement de communication pendant qu'il débute un départ du véhicule, aucune alarme n'est générée.Thus, the detection device causes the generation of at least one alert signal by its communication equipment only under the triple condition that the communication equipment is not moved in the vehicle, that it is no longer connected to it and that its user is leaving this vehicle. If the user uses his communication equipment while he starts a departure from the vehicle, no alarm is generated.

Le dispositif selon l'invention peut comporter d'autres caractéristiques qui peuvent être prises séparément ou en combinaison, et notamment :

  • ses moyens de détection peuvent être agencés pour détecter un début de départ de la personne du poste de conduite par détection d'un événement choisi parmi (au moins) un déverrouillage d'une ceinture de sécurité associée au poste de conduite, une ouverture d'une porte du véhicule donnant accès au poste de conduite, un départ de la personne d'un siège du véhicule sur lequel elle était assise dans le poste de conduite, un arrêt de diffusion de sons issus d'une source sonore du véhicule, et un allumage d'un éclairage interne du véhicule ;
  • la durée prédéfinie peut être comprise entre environ 1 seconde et environ 3 secondes ;
  • ses moyens de contrôle peuvent être agencés pour provoquer la génération par l'équipement de communication d'au moins un message d'alerte choisi parmi (au moins) un signal sonore, un message de synthèse préenregistré, des vibrations, et une animation visuelle ;
  • ses moyens de contrôle peuvent être agencés pour provoquer la génération d'au moins un message d'alerte par l'équipement de communication de façon répétée un nombre de fois prédéfini et selon une périodicité prédéfinie.
The device according to the invention may comprise other characteristics which may be taken separately or in combination, and in particular:
  • its detection means can be arranged to detect a start of departure of the person from the driving position by detecting an event selected from (at least) an unlocking of a seat belt associated with the driving position, an opening of a door of the vehicle giving access to the driving position, a departure of the person from a seat of the vehicle on which she was seated in the driving position, a stop of broadcasting of sounds coming from a sound source of the vehicle, and a ignition of an internal lighting of the vehicle;
  • the predefined duration can be from about 1 second to about 3 seconds;
  • its control means can be arranged to cause the communication equipment to generate at least one alert message selected from (at least) a sound signal, a pre-recorded summary message, vibrations, and a visual animation;
  • its control means can be arranged to cause the generation of at least one alert message by the communication equipment repeatedly a predefined number of times and according to a predefined periodicity.

L'invention propose également un équipement de communication non filaire, destiné à être utilisé par une personne propre à s'installer dans un poste de conduite d'un véhicule comprenant un module de communication et un réseau d'alimentation électrique auxquels il est propre à se connecter, et comprenant un dispositif de détection du type de celui présenté ci-avant.The invention also proposes a non-wired communication equipment, intended to be used by a person able to settle in a driving station of a vehicle comprising a communication module and a power supply network to which it is specific to connect, and comprising a detection device of the type of that presented above.

Un tel équipement peut, par exemple, être choisi parmi (au moins) un téléphone portable, un ordinateur portable et une tablette électronique.Such equipment may, for example, be selected from (at least) a mobile phone, a laptop and an electronic tablet.

D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention apparaîtront à l'examen de la description détaillée ci-après, et du dessin annexé, sur lequel l'unique figure illustre schématiquement et fonctionnellement, un véhicule dans lequel est temporairement embarqué un équipement de communication non filaire comprenant un exemple de réalisation d'un dispositif de détection selon l'invention.Other features and advantages of the invention will appear on examining the detailed description below, and the attached drawing, in which the single figure illustrates schematically and functionally, a vehicle in which is temporarily embarked communication equipment non-wired device comprising an exemplary embodiment of a detection device according to the invention.

L'invention a notamment pour but de proposer un dispositif de détection D destiné à permettre la détection de l'oubli d'un équipement de communication EC de type non filaire dans un véhicule V lorsque le conducteur quitte ce dernier (V) sans lui (EC).The object of the invention is in particular to propose a detection device D intended to enable the detection of the omission of an equipment of non-wired EC communication in a vehicle V when the driver leaves the latter (V) without him (EC).

Dans ce qui suit, on considère, à titre d'exemple non limitatif, que le véhicule V est de type automobile. Il s'agit par exemple d'une voiture. Mais l'invention n'est pas limitée à ce type de véhicule. Elle concerne en effet tout type de véhicule terrestre, maritime (ou fluvial) ou aérien, dès lors qu'il comprend un poste de conduite pouvant accueillir au moins une personne et disposant d'un module de communication embarqué et d'un réseau d'alimentation électrique.In what follows, it is considered, by way of non-limiting example, that the vehicle V is automotive type. This is for example a car. But the invention is not limited to this type of vehicle. It concerns any type of land vehicle, maritime (or fluvial) or air, since it includes a driving position that can accommodate at least one person and having an on-board communication module and a network of power supply.

Par ailleurs, on considère dans ce qui suit, à titre d'exemple non limitatif, que l'équipement de communication EC (non filaire) est un téléphone portable (ou mobile), éventuellement de type intelligent (ou « smartphone »). Mais l'invention n'est pas limitée à ce type d'équipement de communication. Elle concerne en effet tout type d'équipement de communication, portable ou mobile, et pouvant communiquer par voie d'ondes ou par voie filaire, avec un module de communication embarqué dans un véhicule. Ainsi, il pourra également s'agir d'une tablette électronique ou d'un ordinateur portable, par exemple.Furthermore, it is considered in the following, by way of non-limiting example, the communication equipment EC (non-wired) is a mobile phone (or mobile), possibly intelligent type (or "smartphone"). But the invention is not limited to this type of communication equipment. It concerns indeed any type of communication equipment, portable or mobile, and can communicate by wave or wired, with a communication module embedded in a vehicle. Thus, it may also be an electronic tablet or a laptop, for example.

On a schématiquement représenté sur l'unique figure un exemple de véhicule V comprenant un module de communication MCN et un réseau d'alimentation électrique RA, et dans lequel est temporairement embarqué un équipement de communication (non filaire) EC comprenant un exemple de réalisation d'un dispositif de détection D selon l'invention.FIG. 1 is a schematic representation of a vehicle V comprising a communication module MCN and an electrical power supply network RA, and in which a communication equipment (non-wired) EC is temporarily embarked, comprising an exemplary embodiment of the invention. a detection device D according to the invention.

Cet équipement de communication (non filaire) EC est utilisé par une personne (non représentée) qui s'est installée dans le poste de conduite PC du véhicule V, sur le siège SC dédié au conducteur. Par ailleurs, cet équipement de communication EC est agencé de manière à communiquer avec le module de communication MCN, par voie filaire ou par voie d'ondes, et à être éventuellement connecté au réseau d'alimentation électrique RA (via un connecteur adapté à cet effet) notamment en vue du rechargement de sa batterie.This (non-wired) communication equipment EC is used by a person (not shown) who has settled in the driver's cab of the vehicle V, on the seat SC dedicated to the driver. Moreover, this communication equipment EC is arranged so as to communicate with the communication module MCN, by wire or by wave, and possibly be connected to the power supply network RA (via a connector adapted to this purpose). effect) especially for recharging its battery.

Par exemple, l'équipement de communication EC et le module de communication MCN peuvent communiquer entre eux par voie d'ondes selon le standard Bluetooth. Mais d'autres standards de communication à courte portée peuvent être utilisés, et notamment WiFi (ou WiFi-SD (« Short Distance »)) et NFC (« Near Field Communication »). Par ailleurs, dans une variante de réalisation la connexion entre l'équipement de communication EC et le module de communication MCN pourrait être de type filaire.For example, the communication equipment EC and the communication module MCN can communicate with each other by waves according to the Bluetooth standard. But other standards of short-range communication can be used, including WiFi (or WiFi-SD ("Short Distance")) and NFC ("Near Field Communication"). Moreover, in an alternative embodiment the connection between the communication equipment EC and the communication module MCN could be of wired type.

On notera que le module de communication MCN peut éventuellement offrir une connexion à un réseau de communication non filaire d'un opérateur.Note that the MCN communication module may optionally provide a connection to a wireless network of an operator.

Egalement par exemple, l'équipement de communication EC peut être connecté au réseau d'alimentation électrique RA via un câble et une prise implantée dans l'habitacle H du véhicule V (qui comprend ici le poste de conduite PC). A titre d'exemple, et comme illustré non limitativement, cette prise peut être implantée dans une console centrale CC qui est installée dans l'habitacle H entre le siège conducteur SC et le siège du passager avant. Mais dans une variante de réalisation la connexion entre l'équipement de communication EC et le réseau d'alimentation électrique RA pourrait se faire par induction grâce à un chargeur implanté dans l'habitacle H du véhicule V et connecté au réseau d'alimentation électrique RA.Also for example, the communication equipment EC can be connected to the power supply network RA via a cable and a socket located in the passenger compartment H of the vehicle V (which here comprises the control station PC). By way of example, and as illustrated without limitation, this socket can be located in a center console CC which is installed in the passenger compartment H between the driver's seat SC and the front passenger seat. But in an alternative embodiment the connection between the communication equipment EC and the power supply network RA could be done by induction thanks to a charger located in the passenger compartment H of the vehicle V and connected to the power supply network RA .

Comme illustré sur l'unique figure, un dispositif de détection D, selon l'invention, comprend au moins des moyens de détection MD et des moyens de contrôle MC.As illustrated in the single figure, a detection device D according to the invention comprises at least detection means MD and control means MC.

Un tel dispositif de détection D est installé dans l'équipement de communication EC. Par conséquent, il peut être réalisé sous la forme de modules logiciels (ou informatiques ou encore « software »), ou bien d'une combinaison de circuits électroniques (ou « hardware ») et de modules logiciels. On notera que lorsqu'il est exclusivement réalisé sous la forme de modules logiciels, il peut constituer un programme informatique ou une application pouvant tourner automatiquement dans un équipement de communication EC une fois qu'il a été sélectionné par l'usager de ce dernier (EC). Une telle application peut, par exemple, être téléchargée dans l'équipement de communication EC via un réseau de communication.Such a detection device D is installed in the communication equipment EC. Therefore, it can be realized in the form of software modules (or computer or "software"), or a combination of electronic circuits (or "hardware") and software modules. Note that when it is exclusively realized in the form of software modules, it can constitute a computer program or an application that can automatically turn into an EC communication equipment once it has been selected by the user of the latter ( EC). Such an application can, for example, be downloaded into the communication equipment EC via a communication network.

Les moyens de détection MD sont agencés pour détecter une déconnexion de l'équipement de communication EC (embarqué (ici dans la console centrale CC) et ici utilisé par le conducteur) du module de communication MCN et/ou du réseau d'alimentation électrique RA, et un début de départ du conducteur du poste de conduite PC.The detection means MD are arranged to detect a disconnection of the communication equipment EC (embedded (here in the DC central console) and here used by the driver) of the MCN communication module and / or the power supply network RA, and a starting start of the driver of the PC operator station.

On comprendra que la détection de déconnexion peut ici résulter soit d'une interruption de communication entre l'équipement de communication EC et le module de communication MCN, du fait de l'arrêt du moteur par le conducteur (par exemple du fait du retrait de la clé de contact (éventuellement électronique)), soit d'une interruption d'alimentation de l'équipement de communication EC par le réseau d'alimentation électrique RA, du fait de l'arrêt du moteur par le conducteur, soit encore d'une interruption de communication entre l'équipement de communication EC et le module de communication MCN et d'une interruption d'alimentation de l'équipement de communication EC par le réseau d'alimentation électrique RA, du fait de l'arrêt du moteur par le conducteur. Cette détection résulte de l'obtention par les moyens de détection MD, sur requête ou automatiquement (par programmation), d'informations de connexion (de communication ou d'alimentation) qui sont accessibles dans l'équipement de communication EC.It will be understood that the disconnection detection can result here either from a communication interruption between the communication equipment EC and the communication module MCN, due to the driver stopping the motor (for example because of the withdrawal of the ignition key (possibly electronic)), either of a power supply interruption of the communication equipment EC by the power supply network RA, because of the stopping of the motor by the driver, or else of a communication interruption between the communication equipment EC and the communication module MCN and an interruption of supply of the communication equipment EC by the electrical power supply network RA, because of the stopping of the engine by the driver. This detection results from the obtaining by the detection means MD, on request or automatically (by programming), connection information (communication or supply) which are accessible in the communication equipment EC.

La détection d'un début de départ du conducteur du poste de conduite PC peut se faire de différentes manières, éventuellement combinables, selon les options de conception du dispositif de détection D.The detection of a starting start of the driver of the PC operator station can be done in different ways, possibly combinable, according to the design options of the detection device D.

Par exemple, les moyens de détection MD peuvent être agencés pour détecter un début de départ du conducteur du poste de conduite PC par détection de l'un au moins des exemples d'événement suivants :

  • le déverrouillage de la ceinture de sécurité associée au poste de conduite PC (et donc ici au siège conducteur SC). Ce déverrouillage peut être soit déduit par un équipement embarqué (par exemple un capteur) du véhicule V (suite à la fin de la coopération du pêne de la ceinture de sécurité avec la boucle de verrouillage associée) puis signalé par un message dédié à l'équipement de communication EC, via le module de communication MCN, soit déduit par le module de détection MD du bruit caractéristique qu'induit le déverrouillage du pêne de la ceinture de sécurité et qui est enregistré dans l'habitacle H par un microphone de l'équipement de communication EC,
  • l'ouverture de la porte PA du véhicule V qui donne accès au poste de conduite PC. Cette ouverture peut être soit détectée par un capteur d'ouverture de porte du véhicule V, puis signalé par un message dédié à l'équipement de communication EC, via le module de communication MCN, soit déduite par le module de détection MD du bruit caractéristique qu'elle induit et qui est enregistré dans l'habitacle H par un microphone de l'équipement de communication EC,
  • le départ de la personne du siège conducteur SC du véhicule V sur lequel elle était assise dans le poste de conduite PC. Ce départ peut être soit détecté par un capteur de présence qui est installé dans l'assise du siège conducteur SC du véhicule V, puis signalé par un message dédié à l'équipement de communication EC, via le module de communication MCN, soit déduit par le module de détection MD d'images qui sont prises par des moyens d'acquisition d'images de l'équipement de communication EC (lorsque ce dernier est placé dans une position lui permettant d'observer le poste de conduite PC),
  • l'arrêt de la diffusion de sons issus d'une source sonore du véhicule V, comme par exemple un autoradio. Cet arrêt peut être déduit par le module de détection MD de l'évolution des sons enregistrés dans l'habitacle H par un microphone de l'équipement de communication EC,
  • l'allumage d'un éclairage interne du véhicule V, provoqué par l'ouverture d'une porte ou l'arrêt du moteur par le conducteur. Cet allumage peut être soit signalé par un message dédié à l'équipement de communication EC, via le module de communication MCN, soit déduit par le module de détection MD d'images qui sont prises par des moyens d'acquisition d'images de l'équipement de communication EC.
For example, the detection means MD may be arranged to detect a starting start of the driver of the PC operator station by detecting at least one of the following event examples:
  • unlocking the safety belt associated with the PC operator station (and thus here at the driver's seat SC). This unlocking can be either deduced by an on-board equipment (for example a sensor) of the vehicle V (following the end of the cooperation of the safety belt bolt with the associated locking loop) and then signaled by a message dedicated to the communication equipment EC, via the communication module MCN, is deduced by the detection module MD of the characteristic noise that induces the unlocking of the bolt of the safety belt and which is recorded in the cockpit H by a microphone of the EC communication equipment,
  • the opening of the door PA of the vehicle V which gives access to the cockpit PC. This opening can be detected by a door opening sensor of the vehicle V, then indicated by a message dedicated to the communication equipment EC, via the communication module MCN, or deduced by the detection module MD of the characteristic noise. that it induces and which is recorded in the cockpit H by a microphone of the communication equipment EC,
  • the departure of the person from the driver's seat SC of the vehicle V on which she was sitting in the cockpit PC. This departure can be either detected by a presence sensor which is installed in the seat of the driver's seat SC of the vehicle V, then indicated by a message dedicated to the communication equipment EC, via the communication module MCN, or deduced by the image detection module MD which is taken by image acquisition means of the communication equipment EC (when the latter is placed in a position enabling it to observe the PC operator station),
  • stopping the broadcast of sounds from a sound source of the vehicle V, such as a car radio. This stop can be deduced by the detection module MD of the evolution of the sounds recorded in the passenger compartment H by a microphone of the communication equipment EC,
  • the lighting of an internal lighting of the vehicle V, caused by the opening of a door or the stopping of the engine by the driver. This ignition can be either indicated by a message dedicated to the communication equipment EC, via the communication module MCN, or deduced by the detection module MD images that are taken by image acquisition means of the computer. EC communication equipment.

On notera que les informations, contenues dans les messages dédiés, sont fournies à l'équipement de communication EC, via le module de communication MCN, juste avant que la communication entre l'équipement de communication EC et le module de communication MCN ne soit interrompue. Selon le mode de fonctionnement du véhicule V, cette interruption se produit juste après, ou quelques secondes après, l'arrêt du moteur par le conducteur.It will be noted that the information contained in the dedicated messages is provided to the communication equipment EC, via the communication module MCN, just before the communication between the communication equipment EC and the communication module MCN is interrupted. . Depending on the mode of operation of the vehicle V, this interruption occurs just after, or a few seconds after, stopping the engine by the driver.

Les moyens de contrôle MC sont agencés pour provoquer la génération d'au moins un message d'alerte par l'équipement de communication EC lorsque ce dernier EC n'est pas déplacé pendant une durée prédéfinie dp suivant immédiatement la double ou triple détection effectuée par les moyens de détection MD.The control means MC are arranged to cause the generating at least one alert message by the communication equipment EC when the latter EC is not moved for a predefined duration dp immediately following the double or triple detection performed by the detection means MD.

Ainsi, ce n'est que si l'équipement de communication EC n'est pas déplacé dans le véhicule V, alors même qu'il n'est plus connecté au véhicule V et que son usager est en train de quitter ce dernier (V), que le dispositif de détection D provoque la génération d'au moins un signal d'alerte par son équipement de communication EC.Thus, it is only if the communication equipment EC is not moved in the vehicle V, even though it is no longer connected to the vehicle V and that its user is leaving the latter (V ), that the detection device D causes the generation of at least one alert signal by its communication equipment EC.

Si l'usager utilise son équipement de communication EC pendant qu'il débute un départ du véhicule V, aucune alarme n'est générée.If the user uses his communication equipment EC while he starts a departure of the vehicle V, no alarm is generated.

L'information de déplacement est fournie au dispositif de détection D, sur requête ou automatiquement (par programmation), par un module de détection de déplacement faisant partie de son équipement de communication EC, comme par exemple un gyromètre, un gyroscope ou un accéléromètre. Dans une variante non préférentielle, cette information de déplacement pourrait être obtenue sur requête de l'usager/conducteur.The displacement information is provided to the detection device D, on request or automatically (programmatically), by a displacement detection module forming part of its communication equipment EC, such as for example a gyroscope, a gyroscope or an accelerometer. In a non-preferential variant, this displacement information could be obtained at the request of the user / driver.

On notera que la durée prédéfinie dp peut, par exemple, être comprise entre environ 1 seconde et environ 3 secondes, de sorte que le conducteur/usager puisse être averti de son oubli avant qu'il ne soit sorti de l'habitacle H et qu'il ait refermé la porte PA permettant d'accéder au poste de conduite PC.Note that the predefined duration dp may, for example, be between about 1 second and about 3 seconds, so that the driver / user can be notified of his forgetfulness before he left the cockpit H and that he has closed the door PA allowing access to the PC operator's station.

Par exemple, les moyens de contrôle MC peuvent être agencés pour provoquer la génération par l'équipement de communication EC d'au moins un message d'alerte choisi parmi au moins :

  • un signal sonore, tel qu'un signal d'alarme ou un signal dédié, éventuellement musical, destiné à être diffusé par un haut-parleur de l'équipement de communication EC,
  • un message de synthèse préenregistré, comme par exemple « vous oubliez votre portable », destiné à être diffusé par un haut-parleur de l'équipement de communication EC,
  • des vibrations, éventuellement dédiées ou bien identiques à celles produites en cas de réception d'un appel entrant, et
  • une animation visuelle destinée à être affichée sur un écran de l'équipement de communication EC, comme par exemple une imagette de smartphone attirant l'attention par grossissement et/ou clignotement, éventuellement accompagnée d'un message textuel d'avertissement de type « vous oubliez votre portable ».
For example, the control means MC may be arranged to provoke the generation by the communication equipment EC of at least one alert message chosen from at least:
  • an audible signal, such as an alarm signal or a dedicated, possibly musical, signal intended to be broadcast by a loudspeaker of the communication equipment EC,
  • a pre-recorded summary message, such as for example "you forget your mobile phone", intended to be broadcast by a loudspeaker of the communication equipment EC,
  • vibrations, possibly dedicated or identical to those produced upon receipt of an incoming call, and
  • a visual animation intended to be displayed on a screen of the communication equipment EC, such as for example a smartphone thumbnail attracting attention by magnification and / or blinking, possibly accompanied by a text message warning type "you forget your cell phone.

On notera également que les moyens de contrôle MC peuvent être éventuellement agencés pour provoquer la génération d'au moins un message d'alerte par l'équipement de communication EC de façon répétée un nombre de fois prédéfini et selon une périodicité prédéfinie. Par exemple, ils peuvent provoquer par trois fois la répétition d'au moins un message d'alerte à trois ou cinq secondes d'intervalle, éventuellement en imposant une augmentation progressive du volume de diffusion.It will also be noted that the control means MC may possibly be arranged to cause the generation of at least one alert message by the communication equipment EC repeatedly for a predefined number of times and according to a predefined periodicity. For example, they can cause three times the repetition of at least one alert message three or five seconds apart, possibly by imposing a gradual increase in the broadcast volume.

L'invention évite d'avoir à modifier ou à équiper un véhicule, ce qui permet son utilisation dans n'importe quel poste de conduite de n'importe quel véhicule dès lors que l'usager dispose d'un équipement de communication non filaire muni d'un dispositif de détection.The invention avoids having to modify or equip a vehicle, which allows its use in any driving position of any vehicle when the user has a wireless communication equipment provided with a detection device.
