Description
BACKGROUND OF THE
Recently, automobiles such as four-wheeled or two-wheeled vehicles are largely divided into internal combustion engine cars using fossil fuels and electric cars driven by electricity. In the case of an internal combustion engine vehicle, exhaust noise is generated excessively during the combustion of the fossil fuel, so that technologies for reducing noise, sound absorption, and noise generated from each accessory of a vehicle are rapidly developing.
In addition, although the electric vehicle driven by the electric motor driven by the battery has a considerably reduced noise generation as compared with the internal combustion engine vehicle, the driver of the electric vehicle is unable to detect the noise Excessive exposure and decreased concentration. As a result, automobile companies are establishing countermeasures related to noise, but they face serious difficulties because there is no clear solution.
In order to solve the problems mentioned above, automobile manufacturers make technological investments to reduce the noise of each component, but this is provided as an enormous cost increase factor, resulting in a rise in the price of automobiles.
In addition, in the case of an electric vehicle, the driving fun is reduced by the excessive quietness, and the mechanical noise generated in proportion to the running speed of the automobile is lacking, causing a problem of loss of speed feeling (i.e., no speed). In particular, pedestrians can not recognize the noise of a car approaching a pedestrian, leading to a collision with an automobile.
It is an object of the present invention, which is devised to solve the above-described problems, to provide a driving sound effect reproducing apparatus and method for a vehicle, which artificially generates a mechanical sound of an automobile to prevent an accident that may occur to a driver or a pedestrian.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a sound processing apparatus comprising: a storage unit for storing sound data varying according to a driving tendency for a plurality of vehicle types; An information collecting unit for collecting running information of a target vehicle that is started up in real time; A data selection unit for selecting, as driving sound effects of the target vehicle, sound data corresponding to the traveling information collected in real time among the sound data stored for each of the plurality of vehicle types; And a playback unit for playing back the selected sound data.
The data selection unit identifies the vehicle type of the target vehicle and selects acoustic data that is the same as or most similar to the collected travel information among the acoustic data stored for the identified vehicle type from the storage unit as the drive sound of the target vehicle .
The sound data stored in the storage unit is data obtained by analyzing the volume, sound, and sound intensity that are generated in accordance with the driving tendency.
The sound data stored in the storage unit is further classified according to the model year of the vehicle.

And the selecting step includes the step of selecting acoustic data that is the same as or most similar to the collected travel information among the acoustic data stored for the vehicle type of the target vehicle as the drive sound effect of the target vehicle from the table.
The collecting step collects driving information of the target vehicle provided from an electronic control unit (ECU).
According to the embodiment of the present invention, acoustic data generated during the operation of the electric motor driven by the electric motor or the advanced internal combustion engine with excellent noise reduction effect is stopped or started during operation, It is possible to provide an effect of actually generating noises from the vehicle by reproducing the sound data that best matches the running of the actual vehicle.
As a result, the driver can minimize the loss of driving boredom and speed loss caused by the noise reduction of the vehicle, and as a result, it is possible to prevent accidents caused by the driving boredom and loss of speed, or reduce the incidence of accidents.
In addition, according to the embodiment of the present invention, the user can reproduce the driving sound corresponding to the type of the desired vehicle or mix the sound of two or more vehicles to reproduce the mixed sound as the driving sound, have.
Further, according to the embodiment of the present invention, even when the user is listening to the radio or listening to the music through the CD player, it is possible to reproduce the identified sound data as the driving sound effect so that the radio sound or the CD sound and the driving sound It can be outputted simultaneously. This allows the user to hear the driving sound at the same time while listening to the radio, so that the same situation as the existing driving situation can be understood.
In addition, according to the embodiment of the present invention, all the sound sources such as the engine sound, the vibration frequency, the vibration sound, the tire friction sound, the fricatives of the vehicle accessories, the wind resistance sound, May be implemented as a combined sound source or may be implemented separately.

The driving sound effect reproducing method of FIG. 3 can be operated by the driving sound
Referring to FIG. 3, when the user requests playback of the sound effect sound, the sound effect sound playback apparatus activates the sound effect sound playback mode (S300).
When the user selects the vehicle type of the target vehicle through the vehicle selection window (S310), the driving sound effect reproducing apparatus collects and analyzes driving information of the target vehicle (S320). In step S310, the driving sound effect reproducing apparatus of the vehicle generates and displays a screen for selecting a vehicle type of the target vehicle, and the user uses the screen provided by the driving sound effect reproducing apparatus of the vehicle and the user selecting unit such as a touch panel, You can choose the model. The driving sound effect reproducing apparatus of the vehicle can store the selected vehicle type of the target vehicle so that if the user subsequently requests the reproduction of the driving sound effect, the screen for receiving the selection of the vehicle type of the target vehicle may be regenerated and not displayed.
The driving sound effect reproducing apparatus of the vehicle selects sound data corresponding to the type of the target vehicle and the traveling information analyzed in step S320 from the table of the storage section (S330). The table is a table storing the corresponding sound data by varying the driving tendency by a plurality of vehicle types.
The driving sound effect reproducing apparatus of the vehicle reproduces and outputs the sound data selected in step S330 (S340). The sound data reproduced in step S340 includes sensed data while changing driving information for a plurality of vehicle types, and includes information on frequency, wavelength, and sound intensity. Therefore, the sound data reproduced in the step S340 can be changed according to the speed, RPM, torque, etc. of the target vehicle even if it is the same vehicle.
When the driving sound effect reproducing apparatus of the vehicle receives the display request of the vehicle selecting window from the user (S350-Y) while the sound data is reproduced and outputted as the driving sound effect in step S340, the driving sound effect reproducing apparatus of the vehicle displays the vehicle selecting window (S360).
When the driving sound effect reproducing apparatus of the vehicle receives the selection of the desired vehicle from the user (S370), the driving sound effect reproducing apparatus of the vehicle selects and reproduces the sound data corresponding to the vehicle selected in the step S370 and the traveling information to be collected from the table S380). In step S380, the driving information indicates driving information collected and analyzed in real time in step S320.
On the other hand, if the user does not request the display of the vehicle selection window in step S350 but the user requests the stop of the driving sound effect reproduction, the driving sound effect reproduction apparatus of the vehicle deactivates the driving sound effect reproduction mode (S390-Y).
Then, the driving sound effect reproducing apparatus of the vehicle stops reproducing the sound data being reproduced in step S340 (S390).
While the present invention has been described with reference to the particular embodiments and drawings, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited to the disclosed embodiments, but, on the contrary, is intended to cover various modifications and equivalent arrangements included within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.
