技术领域 technical field
本发明涉及一种车道偏离警示器,尤指一种与全球定位系统(GPS)连接配合而可直接利用全球定位系统所提供的车速信号以达成车道偏离警示功效的车道偏离警示器。The invention relates to a lane departure warning device, especially a lane departure warning device which is connected with a global positioning system (GPS) and can directly use the vehicle speed signal provided by the global positioning system to achieve the lane departure warning function.
背景技术 Background technique
汽车为普及的交通工具,近几年来随着使用者(驾驶者)需要而常加装各种电子配备,如全球定位系统(global positioning system,GPS)、车道偏离警示系统(Lane Departure Warning System,LDWS)、行车记录器(Event DataRecorder,EDR)等,其中,全球定位系统(GPS)是利用一GPS接收器如具有C/A码WGS-84椭球坐标系的全球定位系统以接收GPS的卫星信号中的车子定位数据,并可配合预设的电子地图(e-map)及显示幕以提供行车目前所在的地区、位置、方位及车速等,以利于驾驶者随时掌握行车动向;由于全球定位系统(GPS)已是一成熟产品,故于此不另详述其细部结构及使用功能。Cars are a popular means of transportation. In recent years, various electronic equipments are often installed according to the needs of users (drivers), such as global positioning system (global positioning system, GPS), lane departure warning system (Lane Departure Warning System, LDWS), driving recorder (Event DataRecorder, EDR) etc., wherein, global positioning system (GPS) is to utilize a GPS receiver such as the global positioning system with C/A code WGS-84 ellipsoidal coordinate system to receive the satellite of GPS The vehicle positioning data in the signal can cooperate with the preset electronic map (e-map) and display screen to provide the current area, position, orientation and speed of the vehicle, so that the driver can keep track of the driving trend at any time; due to global positioning The system (GPS) is already a mature product, so its detailed structure and usage functions will not be described in detail here.
现有的车道偏离警示系统(LDWS)主要是利用一摄影镜头(camera/imagesensor)安装在车内并面对车前方用以读取车前方的道路影像,使用时如行驶在高速公路上,一般是读取车道两侧边的白色车道线影像,并可在安装时先自行设定车道起始点、车道消失点及车子左右偏移灵敏度以作为辨识参数;再将所读取的影像输入所述车道偏离警示系统(LDWS)所设的电子控制单元(ECU,electronic control unit)内,所述电子控制单元(ECU)主要包含一数字信号处理器(digital signal processor,DSP)并配合一存储器单元(memory unit)如随机存取存储器(random access memory,RAM)以处理影像辨识工作;所述电子控制单元(ECU)再连接车子的左右方向灯或车速码表等以取得并利用车子的车体信号,以判断是否为危险驾驶行为,例如:车速每小时60公里以上行驶在高速公路上,且由车体信号得知驾者并未操纵左、右转灯(未变换车道),但如果车道偏离警示系统(LDWS)却辨识出车行方向相对于车道线呈压线或蛇行状态,即未稳定地在两车道线之间行驶;若辨识结果为是,则会传输信号至警示单元(warning unit)如视觉警示单元(visual warning unit)及/或听觉警示单元(audible warning unit)以启动的而用以警示驾驶者,达成车道偏离警示系统(LDWS)的作用功能。The existing Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS) mainly uses a camera/image sensor installed in the car and faces the front of the car to read the road image in front of the car. It reads the white lane line images on both sides of the lane, and can set the starting point of the lane, the disappearing point of the lane, and the sensitivity of the vehicle's left and right deviation as identification parameters during installation; then input the read images into the In the electronic control unit (ECU, electronic control unit) provided by the lane departure warning system (LDWS), the electronic control unit (ECU) mainly includes a digital signal processor (digital signal processor, DSP) and cooperates with a memory unit ( memory unit) such as random access memory (random access memory, RAM) to process image recognition work; the electronic control unit (ECU) is then connected to the left and right direction lights of the car or the speedometer to obtain and use the car body signal , to judge whether it is a dangerous driving behavior, for example: the speed of the vehicle is more than 60 kilometers per hour on the expressway, and it is known from the vehicle body signal that the driver has not manipulated the left and right turn lights (did not change the lane), but if the lane deviates The warning system (LDWS) recognizes that the direction of the vehicle is in the state of pressing or snaking relative to the lane lines, that is, it is not driving stably between the two lane lines; if the identification result is yes, it will transmit a signal to the warning unit (warning unit ) such as the visual warning unit (visual warning unit) and/or the auditory warning unit (audible warning unit) are activated to warn the driver to achieve the function of the lane departure warning system (LDWS).
然而,至目前为止,现有车道偏离警示系统(LDWS)其电子控制单元(ECU)皆是由导线向外连接至方向盘或左右方向灯或车速码表以取得车体信号如左右方向灯或车速等,用以与车道线影像结合供作为辨识及判断,以致在安装车道偏离警示系统(LDWS)时都会动用到车子的既有电路及配备,相对容易造成车内装备及外观的变动;而由于各厂车种很多,各车种装备也或有不同,因此相对增加在作车体信号连接时的困难度;尤其消费者一般都不喜欢为了加装电子设备而改变或影响原来车子的车内装备及外观,故相对降低安装车道偏离警示器的意愿,不利于使用车道偏离警示器的普及化及使用效率;又,车内部空间本就有限,而全球定位系统(GPS)已被大部分车子所采用,但与车道偏离警示系统(LDWS)为分别个体且须分别安装,不但易造成安装的不便,且二者之间无法结合使用,相对也增加制造成本及安装成本,成为车内加装该等电子配备的遗憾,也相对影响该等电子配备的使用效率。However, so far, the electronic control unit (ECU) of the existing lane departure warning system (LDWS) is connected to the steering wheel or the left and right direction lights or the speedometer by wires to obtain vehicle body signals such as left and right direction lights or vehicle speed. etc., to be combined with the image of the lane line for identification and judgment, so that the existing circuits and equipment of the car will be used when installing the Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS), which is relatively easy to cause changes in the interior equipment and appearance of the car; and because There are many types of vehicles in each factory, and the equipment of each type of vehicle may also be different, so it is relatively more difficult to connect the car body signal; especially consumers generally do not like to change or affect the interior of the original car in order to install electronic equipment Equipment and appearance, so the willingness to install the lane departure warning device is relatively reduced, which is not conducive to the popularization and use efficiency of the lane departure warning device; moreover, the interior space of the car is limited, and the global positioning system (GPS) has been used by most cars. Adopted, but it is separate from the Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS) and must be installed separately, which not only easily causes inconvenience in installation, but also cannot be used in combination, and relatively increases the manufacturing cost and installation cost, becoming an additional installation in the car The failure of the electronic equipment also relatively affects the use efficiency of the electronic equipment.
由上可知,如何设计一车道偏离警示器供消费者可简便安装在车上使用,尤其可取代现有技术须连接车体信号如左右方向灯或车速等安装方式,由以增进安装车道偏离警示器的方便性及使用效率并提升消费者的接受度,乃有迫切的需要,本发明即是针对此需要而设计。It can be seen from the above how to design a lane departure warning device that can be easily installed on the car by consumers, especially it can replace the existing technology that needs to be connected to the vehicle body signals such as left and right direction lights or vehicle speed, so as to enhance the installation of lane departure warning. There is an urgent need to improve the convenience and efficiency of use of the device and to improve the acceptance of consumers, and the present invention is designed to meet this need.
