Abstract

A control method and a related device, applied to the field of autonomous driving, advanced driver assistance, or automatic control. The method includes: receiving at least one piece of first information from at least one first apparatus, where the first apparatus may include a roadside device, a network device, or a first vehicle; and determining, by a device, a first state of a second apparatus based on the received at least one piece of first information, where the second apparatus may be a vehicle light, an exterior horn, an interior signal lamp, an interior horn, an interior vibration apparatus, or the like. The first information may indicate a status such as on/off, blinking, and luminance of the vehicle light, or the interior horn plays a specific voice prompt.

Claims (58)

1 . A control method, comprising:

receiving at least one piece of first information from at least one first apparatus, wherein the at least one first apparatus comprises at least one of a roadside device, a network device, or a first vehicle;

determining a first state of at least one second apparatus based on the at least one piece of first information and second information, wherein the second information is from a terminal comprising the at least one second apparatus, and wherein the second information comprises operating status information of the terminal, and the operating status information comprises at least one of a motion status, a network status, a component operating status, or current location information; and

sending control information to the at least one second apparatus, wherein the control information is used to indicate the first state of the at least one second apparatus.

2 . The control method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

sending control information to at least one third apparatus, wherein the control information is used to indicate the first state of the at least one second apparatus.

3 . The control method according to claim 1 , wherein there is a correspondence between the at least one piece of first information and the first state of the at least one second apparatus, and the correspondence is preset.

4 . The control method according to claim 1 , wherein information comprised in the second information is determined by using at least one sensor and/or an element status inside the terminal.

5 . The control method according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one second apparatus comprises at least one of the following:

an exterior illuminating lamp apparatus;

an exterior signal lamp apparatus;

an interior illuminating apparatus;

an interior active noise cancellation apparatus;

an interior visual cue apparatus;

an interior auditory cue apparatus; or

an interior tactile cue apparatus.

6 . The control method according to claim 1 ,

wherein the at least one piece of first information comprises environment information and/or status indication information;

wherein the environment information comprises at least one of the following: road information, light luminance information, weather information, pedestrian information; map information, vehicle information, or traffic sign information; and

wherein the status indication information is used to indicate the first state of the at least one second apparatus.

7 . The control method according to claim 6 ,

wherein the light luminance information belongs to a first luminance range in a plurality of light luminance ranges, the plurality of light luminance ranges is defined by using at least one threshold, and the plurality of light luminance ranges corresponds with a light status of the at least one second apparatus; and

wherein determining the first state of the at least one second apparatus based on the at least one piece of first information further comprises:

based on the light luminance information in the at least one piece of first information falling within the first luminance range, determining the light status of the at least one second apparatus based on the at least one piece of first information, wherein the light status of the second apparatus corresponds to the first luminance range.

8 . The control method according to claim 7 , wherein the at least one threshold is predefined or preset.

9 . The control method according to claim 1 , wherein determining the first state of the at least one second apparatus based on the at least one piece of first information further comprises:

determining, based on the at least one piece of first information, that the at least one second apparatus is in the first state based on a first condition being met.

10 . The control method according to claim 1 , wherein sending the control information to the at least one second apparatus comprises:

sending at least one piece of the control information to the at least one second apparatus based on a first condition being met.

11 . The control method according to claim 3 , wherein sending the control information to at least one third apparatus comprises:

sending at least one piece of the control information to the at least one third apparatus based on a first condition being met.

12 . A control apparatus, comprising:

one or more processors; and

a non-transitory storage medium in communication with the one or more processors, the non-transitory storage medium configured to store program instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the control apparatus to:

receive at least one piece of first information from at least one first apparatus, wherein the at least one first apparatus comprises at least one of a roadside device, a network device, or a first vehicle; and

determine a first state of at least one second apparatus based on the at least one piece of first information and second information, wherein the second information is from a terminal comprising the at least one second apparatus, and wherein the second information comprises operating status information of the terminal, and the operating status information comprises at least one of a motion status, a network status, a component operating status, or current location information.

13 . The control apparatus according to claim 12 , wherein the program instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the control apparatus to:

send control information to the at least one second apparatus, wherein the control information is used to indicate the first state of the at least one second apparatus.

14 . The control apparatus according to claim 12 , wherein the program instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the control apparatus to:

send control information to at least one third apparatus, wherein the control information is used to indicate the first state of the at least one second apparatus.

15 . The control apparatus according to claim 12 , wherein there is a correspondence between the at least one piece of first information and the first state of the at least one second apparatus, and the correspondence is preset.

16 . The control apparatus according to claim 12 , wherein information comprised in the second information is determined by using at least one sensor and/or an element status inside the terminal.

17 . The control apparatus according to claim 12 , wherein the at least one second apparatus comprises at least one of the following:

an exterior illuminating lamp apparatus;

an exterior signal lamp apparatus;

an interior illuminating apparatus;

an interior active noise cancellation apparatus;

an interior visual cue apparatus;

an interior auditory cue apparatus; or

an interior tactile cue apparatus.

18 . The control apparatus according to claim 12 ,

wherein the at least one piece of first information comprises environment information and/or status indication information;

wherein the environment information comprises at least one of the following: road information, light luminance information, weather information, pedestrian information, map information, vehicle information, or traffic sign information; and

wherein the status indication information is used to indicate the first state of the at least one second apparatus.

19 . The control apparatus according to claim 13 , wherein sending the control information to the at least one second apparatus comprises:

sending at least one piece of the control information to the at least one second apparatus based on a first condition being met.

20 . The control apparatus according to claim 14 , wherein sending the control information to at least one third apparatus comprises:

sending at least one piece of the control information to the at least one third apparatus based on a first condition being met.
