Abstract

A notification method for a vehicle to remind a passenger of arriving at a target station is disclosed. The notification method includes: establishing a wireless communication connection between an electronic device and the vehicle, receiving a target station sent from the electronic device, obtaining navigation information of the vehicle, and sending an arrival notification to the electronic device when the vehicle is approaching the target station. A notification system and device are also provided.

Claims (35)

1. A notification method implemented by a notification device installed in a vehicle, comprising:

establishing a wireless communication connection with an electronic device;

receiving a target station sent from the electronic device;

obtaining a navigation information of the vehicle;

recording a number of passengers planning to get off at the target station;

sending an arrival notification to the electronic device when the vehicle approaches at the target station;

recording a number of the passengers who actually get off at the target station;

comparing the number of the passengers that actually set off with the number of the passengers planning to get off;

sending the arrival notification again to the electronic device when the number of the passengers that actually set off is less than the number of the passengers planning to get off;

sending the arrival notification to the electronic device when the vehicle arrives at the target station and the passenger is still on board;

detecting a wireless signal strength of the electronic device when the vehicle arrives at the target station; and

comparing the wireless signal strength with a preset value to determine whether the passenger has got off.

2. The notification method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving a notification means sent from the electronic device, wherein the notification means comprise at least one notification location; and

sending an approaching notification to the electronic device when the vehicle approaches at the at least one notification location.

3. The notification method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving a notification means sent from the electronic device, wherein the notification means comprises at least one notification time; and

sending an approaching notification to the electronic device when the at least one notification time is approached.

4. The notification method of claim 1 , further comprising:

sending the navigation information to the electronic device, wherein the navigation information comprises a route of the vehicle, stations along the route, and a current location of the vehicle.

5. A notification device, installed in a vehicle, comprising a processor, and a memory configured to store a notification system, the processor configured to execute the notification system, wherein the notification system causes the processor to:

establish a wireless communication connection with an electronic device;

receive a target station sent from the electronic device;

obtain a navigation information of the vehicle;

record a number of passengers planning to get off at the target station;

send an arrival notification to the electronic device when the vehicle approaches at the target station,

record a number of the passengers who actually set off at the target station;

compare the number of the passengers that actually get off with the number of the passengers planning to get off;

send the arrival notification again to the electronic device when the number of the passengers that actually get off is less than the number of the passengers planning to get off;

send the arrival notification to the electronic device when the vehicle arrives at the target station and the passenger is still on board;

detect a wireless signal strength of the electronic device when the vehicle arrives at the target station; and

compare the wireless signal strength with a preset value to determine whether the passenger has got off.

6. The electronic device of claim 5 , wherein the notification system further causes the processor to receive a notification means sent from the electronic device, the notification means comprise at least one notification location; and to send an approaching notification to the electronic device when the vehicle approaches at the at least one notification location.

7. The electronic device of claim 5 , wherein the notification system further causes the processor to receive a notification means sent from the electronic device, the notification means comprises at least one notification time; and to send the notification to the electronic device when the at least one notification time is approached.

8. The electronic device of claim 5 , wherein the notification system further causes the processor to send the navigation information to the electronic device, and the navigation information comprises a route of the vehicle, stations along the route, and a current location of the vehicle.
