detailed description

The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

Hereinafter, some embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the case of no conflict, the following embodiments and features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

The alarm control method for an automatic driving vehicle provided in the embodiment of the present invention may be executed by an alarm control system, and the alarm control system may include an automatic driving vehicle and an alarm control device. In some embodiments, the alarm control device may be set on the autonomous driving vehicle; in some embodiments, the alarm control device may be set on an interactive device of the autonomous driving vehicle, wherein The interactive device may include a display interface through which the autonomous vehicle can be controlled; in some embodiments, the alarm control device may be independent of the autonomous vehicle. For example, the alarm control device may be set on a terminal such as a mobile phone, a tablet computer, or a smart watch that establishes a communication connection with the autonomous vehicle. In an embodiment, the alarm control device may also be set in a cloud processor. In other embodiments, the alarm control device may be applied to equipment such as unmanned vehicles, unmanned aerial vehicles, robots, and unmanned ships.

In the embodiment of the present invention, by acquiring the current operating state of the autonomous vehicle, and according to the current operating state, it is determined whether the autonomous vehicle is in an abnormal state. If the autonomous vehicle is in an abnormal state, the abnormality can be determined The type of the state, and according to the type of the abnormal state, a preset alarm working mode corresponding to the type of the abnormal state is determined, so as to control the audio alarm device of the autonomous vehicle to issue an alarm according to the preset alarm working mode Sound to alarm. In some embodiments, there are multiple preset alarm working modes, each of the preset alarm working modes includes an audible alarm, and different preset alarm working modes have different audible alarms.

The invention adopts a sound alarm device (such as a buzzer) with high vigilance, loud volume and obvious distinction, and controls when the automatic driving vehicle performs state switching, the automatic driving vehicle has any abnormality, or the automatic driving vehicle discovers any dangerous situation. The sound alarm device sends out different alarm sounds to alarm. This kind of alarm method is highly vigilant, the alarm function is obvious, the degree of discrimination is high, and the problem can be identified immediately, and the reliability is high.

In one embodiment, the sound alarm device used in the present invention can prompt the distance of the alarm through the difference in volume. In some embodiments, the present invention can distinguish different preset alarm operating modes through different tones. Different preset alarm working modes are distinguished by different volume or different high and low tones, with a high degree of discrimination, so that the driver or passenger can identify the abnormal problem in a short time and adopt corresponding solutions to solve the abnormality problem.

In some embodiments, when the alarm control device controls the audio alarm device of the self-driving vehicle to emit an alarm sound according to the preset alarm working mode to make an alarm, it may determine the relationship with the alarm according to the preset alarm working mode. The alarm priority corresponding to the preset alarm working mode is described, and according to the alarm priority, the audio alarm device of the autonomous vehicle is controlled to emit an alarm sound. The urgency of the abnormal problem is determined by the level of priority. The higher the priority, the more urgent the abnormal problem is. According to the level of priority, the driver or passenger can give priority to handling abnormal problems with higher urgency.

In some embodiments, the types of the abnormal state include failure to switch to automatic driving mode from manual driving mode, successful switching from manual driving mode to automatic driving mode, successful switching from automatic driving mode to manual driving mode, and successful switching from automatic driving mode to manual driving mode. Any one or more of the mode switching out to manual driving mode failure, warning message, error message, etc. In some embodiments, the warning information refers to information that does not immediately endanger the state of the autonomous vehicle; in some embodiments, the error information refers to information that has a significant impact on driving or when a danger is imminent. Information that appears, such as obstacles ahead.

In some embodiments, when the alarm control device determines the preset alarm operation mode corresponding to the type of abnormal state according to the type of the abnormal state of the autonomous vehicle, it may determine the alarm sound according to the type of the abnormal state. .

In some embodiments, when the current operating state of the automatic driving vehicle is normal automatic driving or normal manual driving, no alarm sound is issued.

For example, if the current operating state of the automatic driving vehicle is normal automatic driving or normal manual driving, the sound alarm device does not emit an alarm sound at this moment. If the current operating state of the automatic driving vehicle is in a state where the manual driving mode requests to switch to the automatic driving mode, the sound alarm device can be controlled to emit an alarm sound according to the corresponding alarm time. If the current operating state of the automatic driving vehicle is in a state where the request to switch to the automatic driving mode from the manual driving mode is successful, the sound alarm device can be controlled to emit an alarm sound according to the corresponding alarm time. If the current operating state of the automatic driving vehicle is in a successful state of switching from the automatic driving mode to the manual driving mode, the sound alarm device can be controlled to emit an alarm sound according to the corresponding alarm time. If the current operating state of the automatic driving vehicle is in a state of failing to switch from the automatic driving mode to the manual driving mode, the sound alarm device can be controlled to emit an alarm sound according to the corresponding alarm time. If the current operating state of the autonomous vehicle is in the presence of warning information or error information, the sound alarm device can be controlled to continuously emit alarm sounds for a corresponding time.

In some embodiments, the larger the alarm priority number is, the higher the alarm priority is, and the alarm working mode with high priority can preempt the alarm working mode with low priority. By adopting the high-priority alarm work mode to preempt the low-priority alarm work mode, the driver or passenger can give priority to the problems with higher alarm priority, so as to avoid the occurrence of higher priority and higher priority. When the problem is low, the problem of higher priority is not dealt with in time, which causes serious losses.

For another example, suppose that the priority of requesting to switch to automatic driving mode from manual driving mode is priority 1. The priority of requesting to switch to automatic driving mode from manual driving mode is priority 4. Switching out from automatic driving mode to manual The priority of driving mode success is priority 4, the priority of switching from automatic driving mode to manual driving mode failure is priority 4, the priority of warning messages is priority 2, the priority of error messages is priority 3. If the automatic assumption here is a warning message appears when the request from manual driving mode to switch to automatic driving mode fails, because the priority of the warning message is priority 2 is greater than the priority of request from manual driving mode to switch to automatic driving mode. Level 1, so in this case, the sound alarm device can be controlled to emit an alarm sound corresponding to the occurrence of warning information with higher priority, such as an alarm sound for 15s continuously.

In some embodiments, the automatic driving vehicle has corresponding alarm information when entering and exiting automatic driving. During the process of automatic and manual driving, the system's self-inspection should be performed in real time, and the current status of the autonomous vehicle should be determined through the self-inspection judgment. Operating status.

Specifically, it can be described with reference to Figure 1 and Figure 2 as an example. Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of the software and hardware of an audio alarm device provided by an embodiment of the present invention, and Figure 2 is the operating state of an autonomous vehicle provided by an embodiment of the present invention. Diagram.

As shown in FIG. 1, the alarm control device may obtain the driving mode of the autonomous driving vehicle through the state machine 101. In some embodiments, the driving mode includes an automatic driving mode or a manual driving mode. The alarm control device may detect whether an abnormal state such as warning information or error information occurs in the current operating state of the autonomous vehicle through the self-checking device 102. The control device 103 combines the driving mode acquired by the state machine 101 and the current operating state detected by the self-checking device 102 to determine that the current operating state of the autonomous vehicle is in an abnormal state. If it is in an abnormal state, it can pass The driving device 104 generates a sound alarm signal corresponding to the abnormal state, and sends the sound alarm signal to the sound alarm device 105 for alarm.

In one embodiment, the operating state of the autonomous vehicle can be specifically illustrated in FIG. 2 as an example. The autonomous vehicle includes two modes of manual driving mode 21 and automatic driving mode 22. In the driving mode 21, the self-check judgment can be performed in real time to judge whether the autonomous driving vehicle is in a normal, warning or error state. The self-driving vehicle can also perform a real-time self-check judgment in the automatic driving mode 22 to determine whether the self-driving vehicle is in a normal, warning, or error state. If it is determined that the automatic driving vehicle has an error in the automatic driving mode 22 State, the current automatic driving mode 22 of the automatic driving vehicle is forced to switch to the manual driving mode 21. The automatic driving vehicle can switch out of the automatic driving mode in the automatic driving mode 22 and enter the manual driving mode 21. In the manual driving mode 21, if the autonomous vehicle receives a switch-in automatic driving request, it can be judged whether the switch-in automatic driving request is successful, if the request is successful, it can switch to the automatic driving mode 22, if the request fails, it stays in Manual driving mode 21.

In one embodiment, the alarm tone of the sound alarm device can be realized by the voltage level. Generally, the higher the voltage value, the higher the tone. The sound alarm device can be alarmed directly by adjusting the duty cycle of the sound alarm signal. The level control of the tone and the duration of the duty cycle of the sound alarm signal can generate different representative alarm melodies, so that the driver can easily distinguish the information represented by the current tone. Specifically, it can be explained by a simple example of music timing (assuming time granularity is 0.1s):

NULL_TYPE: continuous duty:0

AUTO_EXIT_FAIL: duty 50%--duty 50%--duty 0—duty 50%--duty 50%—duty 0—duty 50%--duty 50%—duty 0...

AUTO_ENTER:duty 50%--duty 0-duty 50%--duty 0—duty 50%--duty 0—duty 50%--duty 0—duty 50%--duty 0—duty 50%...

AUTO_EXIT: duty 50%--duty 0--duty 0—duty 50%--duty 0—duty 0—duty 50%--duty 0—duty 0—duty 50%--duty 0—duty 0—duty 50% ...

Wherein, the NULL_TYPE is used to indicate that the autonomous vehicle is in a normal state, and the continuous duty: 0 indicates that there is no alarm music sequence; the AUTO_EXIT_FAIL is used to indicate that the request to switch to automatic driving failed in manual mode; the duty 50% is used to indicate Sound alarm 0.05s music sequence; the AUTO_ENTER is used to indicate that the automatic driving is successfully switched in; the AUTO_EXIT is used to indicate that the automatic driving is switched out.

In the embodiment of the present invention, different operating states of an autonomous vehicle are determined by adjusting the pitch, the volume, and the length of time, so as to determine the type of abnormal state according to the different operating state, so as to adopt the type corresponding to the abnormal state Measures to solve the abnormal problem in time to improve the safety performance of the autonomous vehicle during driving.

The following is a schematic description of an alarm control system composed of an automatic driving vehicle and an alarm control device with reference to FIG. 3.

Please refer to FIG. 3, which is a schematic structural diagram of an alarm control system provided by an embodiment of the present invention. The alarm control system shown in FIG. 3 includes an automatic driving vehicle 31 and an alarm control device 32. The automatic driving vehicle 31 An alarm control device 32 is provided thereon, and the self-driving vehicle 31 may include a power system 311, and the power system 311 is used to provide power for the self-driving vehicle 31 to operate.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the alarm control device 32 can obtain the current operating state of the autonomous driving vehicle 31, and determine whether the autonomous driving vehicle 31 is in an abnormal state according to the current operating state; if the autonomous driving vehicle 31 is in an abnormal state , The type of the abnormal state is determined. The alarm control device 32 may determine a preset alarm working mode corresponding to the type of abnormal state according to the type of the abnormal state, and perform an alarm according to the preset alarm working mode. In some embodiments, there are multiple preset alarm working modes, each of the preset alarm working modes includes an audible alarm, and different preset alarm working modes have different audible alarms.

The following is a schematic description of an alarm control method for an automatic driving vehicle provided by an embodiment of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Please refer to FIG. 4 for details. FIG. 4 is a schematic flowchart of an alarm control method for an autonomous vehicle provided by an embodiment of the present invention. The method may be executed by an alarm control device. The explanation of the alarm control device is as described above. Narrated. Specifically, the method of the embodiment of the present invention includes the following steps.

S401: Acquire the current operating state of the autonomous driving vehicle.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the alarm control device can obtain the current operating state of the autonomous vehicle. In some embodiments, the current operating state includes at least one of the following: being in a normal manual driving mode, being in a normal automatic driving mode, requesting to switch to automatic driving mode from manual driving mode failed, and requesting to switch to automatic driving mode from manual driving mode successfully 、Successfully cut out from automatic driving mode to manual driving mode, fail to cut out from automatic driving mode to manual driving mode, a warning message appears, and an error message appears. In some embodiments, the current operating state of the autonomous driving vehicle may also be displayed on the display interface of the interactive device connected to the alarm control device in the autonomous driving vehicle for the user to view.

In some embodiments, the warning information includes, but is not limited to, information that does not immediately threaten the state of the autonomous driving vehicle, such as information such as speed measurement in front 500. In some embodiments, the error information includes, but is not limited to, information that has a significant impact on driving or an alarm when danger is about to occur, such as information such as obstacles ahead.

In one embodiment, the alarm control device may obtain the current driving mode of the automatic driving vehicle before acquiring the current operating state of the automatic driving vehicle, and determine the current driving mode according to the current driving mode of the automatic driving vehicle. Operating status. In some embodiments, the current driving mode includes an automatic driving mode or a manual driving mode.

For example, assuming that the alarm control device acquires that the current driving mode of the autonomous vehicle is the automatic driving mode, if the alarm control device detects that the autonomous vehicle is switched from the automatic driving mode to the manual driving mode, then The alarm control device may determine that the current operating state of the automatic driving vehicle is successfully switching from the automatic driving mode to the manual driving mode.

It can be seen that by acquiring the current driving mode of the autonomous driving vehicle, it is helpful to determine the current operating state of the autonomous driving vehicle, so as to facilitate subsequent determination of whether the autonomous driving vehicle is abnormal according to the current operating state.

S402: Determine whether the automatic driving vehicle is in an abnormal state according to the current operating state.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the alarm control device may determine whether the autonomous driving vehicle is in an abnormal state according to the current operating state.

In some embodiments, the type of the abnormal state includes, but is not limited to, at least one of the following: a request from manual driving mode to switch to automatic driving mode fails, a request from manual driving mode to switch to automatic driving mode succeeds, and a switch from automatic driving mode is successful. When the manual driving mode is successful, the switch from the automatic driving mode to the manual driving mode fails, a warning message appears, and an error message appears.

S403: If the autonomous vehicle is in an abnormal state, determine the type of the abnormal state.

In the embodiment of the present invention, if the autonomous driving vehicle is in an abnormal state, the alarm control device can determine the type of the abnormal state.

For example, suppose it is detected that the autonomous vehicle is in an abnormal state requesting to switch to the automatic driving mode from the manual driving mode, it can be further determined whether the type of the abnormal state is the successful request of the automatic driving vehicle to switch to the automatic driving mode from the manual driving mode, or The automatic driving vehicle fails to request to switch to the automatic driving mode from the manual driving mode.

For another example, assuming that the alarm control device detects an obstacle ahead, it can be determined that the type of the abnormal state is the type of error information.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the type of the abnormal state can be determined when the autonomous vehicle is in the abnormal state, so that the corresponding preset alarm working mode can be determined according to the type of the abnormal state.

S404: According to the type of the abnormal state, determine a preset alarm working mode corresponding to the type of the abnormal state.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the alarm control device may determine a preset alarm operation mode corresponding to the type of the abnormal state according to the type of the abnormal state. In some embodiments, the corresponding relationship between the type of abnormal state and the preset alarm working mode is preset in the alarm control device. In some embodiments, different types of abnormal states correspond to different preset alarm working modes. In some embodiments, the preset alarm working mode includes, but is not limited to, different alarm sounds, alarm tones, alarm volume, and alarm melody.

For example, suppose that the alarm control device is preset with a preset alarm working mode corresponding to the type of abnormal state that fails to switch from manual driving mode to automatic driving mode. The sound alarm device emits an alarm sound according to a certain alarm time. When the time is 10s, when it is detected that the current operating state of the automatic driving vehicle is that the request to switch to automatic driving from the manual mode has failed, the sound alarm device can be controlled to continuously emit an alarm sound for 10s.

It can be seen that the present invention can determine the preset alarm working mode corresponding to the type of abnormal state according to the type of the abnormal state of the automatic driving vehicle through this embodiment, so as to facilitate subsequent alarms according to the preset alarm working mode. In this way, the driver and/or passenger can determine the current abnormal state according to the preset alarm working mode, so as to solve the abnormal state in time.

S405: Control the sound alarm device of the self-driving vehicle to emit an alarm sound according to the preset alarm working mode to give an alarm.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the alarm control device may control the voice alarm device of the autonomous vehicle to emit an alarm sound according to the preset alarm working mode to give an alarm.

In one embodiment, when the alarm control device controls the sound alarm device of the autonomous vehicle to emit an alarm sound according to the preset alarm working mode to make an alarm, it may determine according to the preset alarm working mode According to the alarm priority corresponding to the preset alarm working mode, and according to the alarm priority, the audio alarm device of the autonomous vehicle is controlled to emit an alarm sound.

It can be seen that by setting the alarm priority in the present invention, the emergency and severity of the abnormal state can be judged according to the alarm priority, so that the driver can give priority to the higher alarm priority (that is, the emergency degree) according to the alarm working mode. (Higher) abnormal state processing, thereby improving the processing efficiency of abnormal state.

In some embodiments, the alarm sound corresponds to the type of the abnormal state, and different abnormal states may belong to the same priority, but do not necessarily have the same alarm sound. Taking Figure 2 as an example, suppose that the priority of AUTO_EXIT cut out of automatic driving is the same as the priority of AUTO_ENTER cut into automatic driving, and both are priority 4. If the music sequence of AUTO_EXIT and AUTO_ENTER is as follows:

AUTO_ENTER:duty 50%--duty 0-duty 50%--duty 0—duty 50%--duty 0—duty 50%--duty 0—duty 50%--duty 0—duty 50%...

AUTO_EXIT: duty 50%--duty 0--duty 0—duty 50%--duty 0—duty 0—duty 50%--duty 0—duty 0—duty 50%--duty 0—duty 0—duty 50% ...

If the music sequence of the AUTO_EXIT and AUTO_ENTER is not the same, it can be determined that although the AUTO_EXIT and AUTO_ENTER are at the same priority, the alarm sounds are different.

It can be seen that through this implementation of setting different alarm sounds for abnormal states with the same priority, so that when multiple abnormal states with the same priority are obtained, the driver or passenger can judge the current abnormality through the alarm sound The type of the state, so as to adopt corresponding countermeasures to solve the current abnormal state in time to improve the processing efficiency of the abnormal state.

In some embodiments, different types of abnormal states correspond to different alarm sounds, so that users can distinguish different abnormal states based on alarm sounds; of course, in other embodiments, different abnormal states The type may correspond to the same alarm sound. For example, different abnormal states of the same priority can emit the same alarm sound. This helps the user to quickly determine the priority of the abnormal state based on the alarm sound, and improves the processing efficiency, which is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present invention.

In some embodiments, the alarm sound corresponds to the alarm priority. In some embodiments, different alarm priorities correspond to different alarm sounds.

In an embodiment, the alarm control device may determine the order in which the sound alarm device emits the alarm sound according to the alarm priority. In some embodiments, the alarm control device may determine the order in which the sound alarm device emits the alarm sound according to the order of the alarm priority from high to low. This helps users to know the alarm working mode with the highest alarm priority in time, so as to quickly deal with abnormal situations.

In some embodiments, when the alarm control device controls the audio alarm device of the self-driving vehicle to emit an alarm sound according to the alarm priority, if at least two alarm working modes are detected, the at least two alarm working modes may be acquired. The alarm priority of an alarm working mode is compared, and the alarm priority levels of the at least two alarm working modes are compared, and the sound alarm device is controlled according to the order of the alarm priority from high to low. The alarm sounds corresponding to the at least two alarm working modes are emitted.

For example, suppose that when the alarm control device controls the audio alarm device of the self-driving vehicle to emit an alarm sound according to the alarm priority, it detects that the self-driving vehicle has two alarm working modes: warning information and error information, if The alarm priority level of the obtained warning information is priority 2, and the alarm priority level of the obtained error information is priority 3. You can compare the alarm priority levels of the two alarm working modes and follow the According to the order of the alarm priority level from high to low, the sound alarm device is controlled to emit an alarm sound corresponding to the error message and an alarm sound corresponding to the warning message.

It can be seen that by controlling the sound alarm device to emit the alarm sounds corresponding to the at least two alarm working modes in the order of alarm priority from high to bottom, it is possible to implement the abnormal state according to the The order of the urgency level is to solve the corresponding abnormal state in turn, thereby improving the efficiency of solving the abnormal state, minimizing the occurrence of major abnormal accidents, and improving the safety performance of autonomous vehicles.

In some embodiments, when the alarm control device controls the audio alarm device of the autonomous vehicle to emit an alarm sound according to the alarm priority, it may determine the alarm sound according to the alarm priority of the alarm working mode. Prioritize the sound alarm signal corresponding to the priority, and send the sound alarm signal to the sound alarm device, so that the sound alarm device emits the alarm sound indicated by the sound alarm signal. In some embodiments, the alarm sound is adjusted according to the input electric wave signal of the sound alarm device.

In one embodiment, when the alarm control device determines the sound alarm signal corresponding to the alarm priority according to the alarm priority of the alarm operation mode, if at least two alarm operation modes are detected, it can obtain Comparing the alarm priorities of the at least two alarm working modes and comparing the alarm priorities of the at least two alarm working modes to determine the target alarm working mode with the highest alarm priority, thereby determining The audible alarm signal corresponding to the alarm priority of the alarm working mode.

For example, suppose that the alarm control device detects two types of alarms, a warning message and an error message, of an automatic driving vehicle when determining an audible alarm signal corresponding to the alarm priority according to the alarm priority of the alarm working mode. Working mode, if the alarm priority of the warning information is obtained as priority 2 and the alarm priority of the error information is obtained as priority 3, then the alarm priority levels of the two alarm working modes can be compared , And determine the target alarm operation mode of the error message with the higher alarm priority, so as to determine the sound alarm signal corresponding to the alarm priority 3 of the target alarm operation mode with the error message.

It can be seen that through this implementation of issuing an audible alarm signal corresponding to the target alarm task corresponding to a higher alarm priority, the abnormal state with the highest priority (ie, the most urgent) can be achieved under the emergency and brisk processing time. Timely treatment minimizes the adverse consequences caused by the abnormal state, and improves the safety of autonomous vehicles to a certain extent.

In some embodiments, the sound alarm signal includes at least one of the following: alarm time, alarm tone, alarm volume, and alarm melody.

In some embodiments, the sound alarm signal carries an alarm time; the sound alarm signal is used to instruct the sound alarm device to issue an alarm sound according to the alarm time. In some embodiments, the alarm time is positively correlated with the alarm priority of the preset alarm working mode, that is, the higher the alarm priority of the preset alarm working mode, the longer the alarm time. For example, assuming that the alarm time carried by the sound alarm signal is 20s, the sound alarm signal is used to instruct the sound alarm device to emit an alarm sound for 20s. It can be seen that through this implementation of issuing alarm sounds at different alarm times, the driver or passenger can judge the current abnormal state according to the length of the alarm time, so that the user can solve the current abnormal state as soon as possible.

In some embodiments, the sound alarm signal carries an alarm volume; the sound alarm signal is used to instruct the sound alarm device to emit an alarm sound according to the alarm volume. In some embodiments, the alarm volume is positively correlated with the alarm priority of the preset alarm working mode, that is, the higher the alarm priority of the preset alarm working mode, the greater the alarm volume. For example, assuming that the alarm volume carried by the sound alarm signal is 60 decibels, the sound alarm signal is used to instruct the sound alarm device to emit an alarm sound at an alarm volume of 60 decibels. In some embodiments, the alarm volume is determined according to the duty cycle of the input electric wave signal.
