Abstract
A vehicle behavior control method implementing functions of not affecting a driving safety of a vehicle through a pedal, comprises acquiring a pedal duration of the pedal, determining a custom instruction matched with the pedal duration of the pedal, and controlling the vehicle to perform a vehicle behavior corresponding to the custom instruction. A vehicle behavior control system and a vehicle computer are also provided.
Claims11
A vehicle behavior control method applied to a vehicle with a brake pedal, an accelerator pedal, and a pedal device, the pedal device comprising a pedal, a pedal bracket, and a pedal sensing element, wherein the pedal bracket is arranged inside the vehicle, the pedal is arranged on a side of the pedal bracket, and the pedal sensing element is configured for sensing a force on the pedal in a case that the pedal sensing element is abutted between the pedal and the pedal bracket, the vehicle behavior control method comprising:
- acquiring a pedal pressure data of the pedal by collecting, from the pedal sensing element, an amount of the force on the pedal;
- determining a force duration of the force on the pedal according to a sensing duration of the pedal sensing element in a case that the pedal pressure data is within a preset pressure range;
- determining a pedal duration on the pedal according to the force duration of the force on the pedal and a preset duration rule, and categorizing the pedal duration into a short-time pedal and a long-time pedal, wherein the force duration of the short-time pedal is less than the force duration of the long-time pedal;
- determining a custom instruction matched with the pedal duration on the pedal, wherein different custom instructions correspond to different vehicle behaviors;
- and
- controlling the vehicle to perform a vehicle behavior corresponding to the custom instruction.
A vehicle behavior control system applied to a vehicle with a brake pedal and an accelerator pedal, the vehicle behavior control system comprising:
- a pedal device and an on-board control system, wherein the pedal device is electrically connected with the on-board control system, the on-board control system receives a pedal duration from the pedal device and outputs a custom instruction matched with the pedal duration;
- and
- the pedal device comprises a pedal bracket, a pedal, and a pedal sensing element, wherein the pedal bracket is arranged inside the vehicle, the pedal sensing element is electrically connected with the on-board control system, the pedal is arranged on a side of the pedal bracket, and the pedal sensing element is abutted between the pedal and the pedal bracket for sensing a force on the pedal;
- wherein a pedal pressure data of the pedal is acquired by collecting an amount of the force on the pedal from the pedal sensing element;
- when the pedal pressure data is detected within a preset pressure range, a force duration of the force on the pedal is determined based on a sensing duration of the pedal sensing element;
- and the pedal duration is determined based on the force duration of the pedal and a preset duration rule, the pedal duration on the pedal is categorized into a short-time pedal and a long-time pedal, and the force duration of the short-time pedal is less than the force duration of the long-time pedal.
A vehicle computer applied to a vehicle with a brake pedal, an accelerator pedal, and a pedal device, the pedal device comprising a pedal, a pedal bracket, and a pedal sensing element, wherein the pedal bracket is arranged inside the vehicle, the pedal is arranged on a side of the pedal bracket, and the pedal sensing element is configured for sensing a force on the pedal in a case that the pedal sensing element is abutted between the pedal and the pedal bracket, the vehicle computer comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- a data storage storing one or more programs which when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to:
- acquire a pedal pressure data of the pedal by collecting, from the pedal sensing element, an amount of the force on the pedal;
- determine a force duration of the force on the pedal according to a sensing duration of the pedal sensing element in a case that the pedal pressure data is within a preset pressure range;
- determine a pedal duration on the pedal according to the force duration of the force on the pedal and a preset duration rule, and categorize the pedal duration into a short-time pedal and a long-time pedal, wherein the force duration of the short-time pedal is less than the force duration of the long-time pedal;
