Abstract

The present disclosure provides an automatic driving system, fault alarm method and device, the system includes a primary monitoring device, an auxiliary monitoring device, at least one device to be detected and a fault alarm device; where the primary monitoring device and the auxiliary monitoring device are respectively connected to each device to be detected and the fault alarm device; the primary monitoring device and the auxiliary monitoring device are connected, the primary monitoring device and the auxiliary monitoring device respectively perform a fault detection on the each device to be detected; and if it is detected that any device to be detected is abnormal, the primary monitoring device or the auxiliary monitoring device sends an alarm instruction to the fault alarm device, so that the fault alarm device performs an alarm operation according to the alarm instruction.

Claims (42)

1. An automatic driving system, comprising: a primary monitoring device, an auxiliary monitoring device, at least one device to be detected and a fault alarm device;

wherein the primary monitoring device and the auxiliary monitoring device are respectively connected to each device to be detected, the primary monitoring device and the auxiliary monitoring device are respectively connected to the fault alarm device;

the primary monitoring device and the auxiliary monitoring device are connected;

the auxiliary monitoring device is configured to determine a second detection result of each of the at least one device to be detected and send the second detection result of each of the at least one device to be detected to the primary monitoring device;

the primary monitoring device is configured to determine a first detection result of each of the at least one device to be detected, receive the second detection result of each of the at least one device to be detected sent by the auxiliary monitoring device, determine a detection result of each of the at least one device to be detected based on the first detection result of each of the at least one device to be detected and the second detection result of each of the at least one device to be detected, and send an alarm instruction to the fault alarm device if the detection result determined based on the first detection result and the second detection result indicates that any one of the at least one device to be detected is abnormal; and the fault alarm device is configure to perform an alarm operation according to the alarm instruction.

2. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one device to be detected comprises at least one of a vehicle motion device, an environment sensing device, a vehicle control device and a power device.

3. The system according to claim 2 , wherein the vehicle motion device comprises at least one of a speed sensor, an angle sensor and an integrated navigation device.

4. The system according to claim 2 , wherein the environment sensing device comprises at least one of a lidar sensor, a millimeter wave radar sensor, an ultrasonic sensor and a camera.

5. The system according to claim 2 , wherein the vehicle control device comprises at least one of a brake device, a steering device, an engine and a gearbox.

6. The system according to claim 1 , further comprising: a remote control device, wherein the remote control device is respectively connected to the primary monitoring device, the auxiliary monitoring device and the fault alarm device;

7. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the fault alarm device comprises at least one of an in-vehicle alarm device and an out-vehicle alarm device.

8. The system according to claim 7 , wherein the in-vehicle alarm device comprises at least one of an in-vehicle voice alarm device, a display alarm prompt device and an AR alarm prompt device.

9. The system according to claim 7 , wherein the out-vehicle alarm device comprises at least one of an alarm indicator light and an out-vehicle voice alarm device.

10. A fault alarm method, comprising:

determining, by a primary monitoring device, a first detection result of a first device to be detected;

receiving, by the primary monitoring device, a second detection result of the first device to be detected sent by an auxiliary monitoring device;

determining, by the primary monitoring device, a detection result of the first device to be detected based on the first detection result of the first device to be detected and the second detection result of the first device to be detected; and

if the detection result determined based on the first detection result and the second detection result indicates that the first device to be detected is abnormal, sending, by the primary monitoring device, an alarm instruction to a fault alarm device, so that the fault alarm device performs an alarm operation according to the alarm instruction.

11. The method according to claim 10 , wherein there are at least two first devices to be detected that are abnormal; the if the detection result determined based on the first detection result and the second detection result indicates that the first device to be detected is abnormal, sending, by the primary monitoring device, an alarm instruction to a fault alarm device comprises:

determining, by the primary monitoring device, an abnormal type of each of the first devices to be detected;

determining, by the primary monitoring device, an alarm sequence of the first device to be detected according to the abnormal type and a preset abnormal type priority; and

sending, by the primary monitoring device, the alarm instruction to the fault alarm device according to the alarm sequence.

12. The method according to claim 10 , wherein the abnormal type of the first device to be detected that is abnormal comprises: a working parameter abnormality, a connection state abnormality, a storage state abnormality and a log sequence abnormality.

13. The method according to claim 12 , wherein a priority of the connection state abnormality > a priority of the log sequence abnormality > a priority of the working parameter abnormality > a priority of the storage state abnormality.

14. The method according to claim 10 , wherein the sending, by the monitoring device, an alarm instruction to a fault alarm device comprises:

sending, by the monitoring device, the alarm instruction to the fault alarm device through a remote control device.

15. A primary monitoring device, comprising:

a memory, a processor, and a computer program stored on the memory and operable on the processor,

wherein the processor, when running the computer program, is configured to:

determine a first detection result of a first device to be detected;

receive a second detection result of the first device to be detected sent by an auxiliary monitoring device;
