Description

Dispositif d'aide à la conduite, procédé et programme d'ordinateur, enregistrable dans une mémoire d'un terminal mobile, pour la mise en œuvre dudit dispositif  Driver assistance device, method and computer program, recordable in a memory of a mobile terminal, for the implementation of said device

L'invention concerne un dispositif d'aide à la conduite d'un véhicule automobile ainsi qu'un procédé et un programme d'ordinateur pour la mise en œuvre dudit dispositif. The invention relates to a device for assisting the driving of a motor vehicle and a method and a computer program for implementing said device.

Pendant le déplacement d'un véhicule, son conducteur doit regarder en permanence vers l'extérieur du véhicule pour prévenir de tout danger susceptible de provoquer un accident. Or, la vision du conducteur est régulièrement perturbée par la luminosité extérieure, que ce soit par éblouissement dû au soleil, dû aux feux d'un véhicule croisé ou d'un véhicule suivi, ou bien par variation brusque de luminosité telle qu'une entrée ou sortie d'un tunnel. During the movement of a vehicle, the driver must constantly look towards the outside of the vehicle to prevent any danger that could lead to an accident. However, the driver's vision is regularly disturbed by the external brightness, whether it is glare due to the sun, due to the lights of a crossover vehicle or a vehicle followed, or by a sudden change in brightness such as an entrance or exit from a tunnel.

Dans une optique d'améliorer le confort et la sécurité du conducteur, plusieurs solutions ont été proposées. L'une d'entre elle consiste à utiliser un écran à transmission variable de la luminosité, sous la forme par exemple de lunettes portées par le conducteur, dont la transparence varie en fonction d'un coefficient de transmission appliqué audit écran. Le coefficient de transmission prend en compte la luminosité et l'écran atténue la quantité de lumière transmise quand nécessaire. Dans les solutions connues, le calcul du coefficient de transmission est effectué à l'aide de moyens de traitement embarqués prévus, de série, sur le véhicule. In order to improve driver comfort and safety, several solutions have been proposed. One of them consists in using a screen with variable transmission of brightness, in the form for example of glasses worn by the driver, the transparency of which varies according to a transmission coefficient applied to said screen. The transmission coefficient takes into account the brightness and the screen attenuates the amount of light transmitted when necessary. In known solutions, the calculation of the transmission coefficient is performed using on-board processing means provided as standard on the vehicle.

Néanmoins, ces solutions ne permettent pas au conducteur d'une automobile dans lequel le dispositif n'a pas été installé lors de la fabrication dudit véhicule de pouvoir profiter de leurs fonctionnalités. Une solution envisageable pour résoudre ce problème est de prévoir lesdits moyens de traitement dans les lunettes mais une telle solution entraine un haut degré de sophistication des celles-ci. En cas de pertes ou de détérioration des lunettes, le coût de remplacement est ainsi élevé. L'invention vise à pallier au moins certains des inconvénients des dispositifs et procédés d'aide à la conduite connus. L'invention propose ainsi à cet effet un dispositif d'aide à la conduite d'un véhicule automobile, ledit dispositif d'aide comprenant un écran à transmission variable de la lumière, destiné à être disposé entre la scène de route et un conducteur du véhicule, et des moyens de pilotage d'un coefficient de transmission de l'écran à transmission variable. Selon l'invention, ledit écran et lesdits moyens de pilotage sont configurés de manière à pouvoir être embarqué sur le véhicule comme différents composants d'un produit après-vente. However, these solutions do not allow the driver of an automobile in which the device has not been installed during the manufacture of said vehicle to be able to enjoy their features. One possible solution to solve this problem is to provide said processing means in the glasses, but such a solution leads to a high degree of sophistication thereof. In case of loss or deterioration of the glasses, the replacement cost is thus high. The aim of the invention is to overcome at least some of the disadvantages of known driving aid devices and methods. The invention thus proposes for this purpose a device for assisting the driving of a motor vehicle, said assistance device comprising a screen with variable transmission of light, intended to be arranged between the road scene and a driver of the vehicle. vehicle, and means for controlling a transmission coefficient of the variable transmission screen. According to the invention, said screen and said control means are configured so as to be embedded on the vehicle as different components of an after-sales product.

On entend par là que ni ledit écran ni lesdits moyens de pilotage ne font partie dudit véhicule à l'issue de sa fabrication. Ils sont au contraire configurés pour pouvoir être embarqués dans ledit véhicule après sa sortie usine, notamment à tout moment de la vie du véhicule, de sa prise en main à sa mise à la casse. Ils pourront en particulier être vendus et/ou livrés de façon indépendante du véhicule. L'invention peut ainsi être utilisée dans n'importe quel véhicule, sans que celui-ci présente un équipement de série particulier. En outre, les moyens de pilotage n'étant pas intégrés à l'écran, on limite la sophistication technique et le coût de chacun des composants du dispositif. Selon différents mode de réalisation, qui pourront être pris ensemble ou séparément : By this is meant that neither said screen nor said control means are part of said vehicle at the end of its manufacture. They are instead configured to be embedded in said vehicle after leaving the factory, especially at any point in the life of the vehicle, from its grip to its scrapping. In particular, they may be sold and / or delivered independently of the vehicle. The invention can thus be used in any vehicle, without it having a particular series equipment.

Said variable transmission screen is for example, as shown in Figure 1, a pair of glasses 28, carried by the driver 24, like sunglasses or corrective glasses, a single spectacle lens having been shown on the figure 1 . The screen 28 may also be placed in place of the sun visor, in front of the driver. In all cases, the screen is removable, that is to say likely to be embedded on the vehicle as a component of an after-sales product. Such a screen includes, for example, a combination of polarizers and a liquid crystal display. It may also be electro mechanical mirrors (MEMS according to the acronym).

Quand il est en phase active (c'est-à-dire en fonctionnement), ledit dispositif pilote un coefficient de transmission de l'écran à transmission variable, notamment par un signal puisé. Cela a pour but que l'écran à transmission variable ait son coefficient de transmission au maximum (c'est-à-dire que la transparence de l'écran est au maximum) pendant une certaine période pendant laquelle le conducteur 24 voit la scène de route. Cela a aussi pour but que l'écran à transmission variable ait son coefficient de transmission au minimum (c'est-à-dire que la transparence de l'écran est au minimum) pendant une autre période, pendant laquelle les éclairages extérieurs de la scène de route sont atténués. Pour ce faire, le dispositif comprend des moyens de pilotage 30 qui génèrent ici le signal puisé destiné à commander l'écran à transmission variable 28. Ledit signal puisé est établi, par exemple, au niveau d'une unité de traitement 34. Le signal puisé pourra être un signal périodique de période T, dont l'amplitude varie entre un minimum Min et un maximum Max. Le minimum Min correspond à un coefficient de transmission au minimum pour l'écran à transmission variable. De la même façon, le maximum Max correspond à un coefficient de transmission au maximum pour l'écran à transmission variable. On pourra en particulier caractériser le signal puisé par un rapport cyclique qui est égale à t/T, t correspondant au temps où la valeur du signal puisé est au maximum et T à la période du signal puisé. En pratique, le signal puisé est utilisé pour piloter le coefficient de transmission de l'écran à transmission variable en choisissant la valeur de t. When it is in active phase (that is to say in operation), said device controls a transmission coefficient of the variable transmission screen, in particular by a pulsed signal. This is to ensure that the variable transmission screen has its maximum transmission coefficient (i.e., the screen transparency is at a maximum) for a certain period during which the driver 24 sees the scene of the transmission. road. It is also the purpose of the variable transmission screen to have its transmission coefficient at a minimum (i.e., the screen transparency is at a minimum) for another period, during which the external lighting of the screen road scene are mitigated. To do this, the device comprises control means 30 which generate here the pulsed signal intended to control the variable transmission screen 28. Said pulsed signal is established, for example, at a processing unit 34. The signal pulsed may be a periodic signal of period T, the amplitude of which varies between a minimum Min and a maximum Max. The minimum Min corresponds to a minimum transmission coefficient for the variable transmission screen. In the same way, the maximum Max corresponds to a maximum transmission coefficient for the variable transmission screen. In particular, it will be possible to characterize the pulsed signal by a duty cycle which is equal to t / T, t corresponding to the time when the value of the pulsed signal is at the maximum and T to the period of the pulsed signal. In practice, the pulsed signal is used to control the transmission coefficient of the variable transmission screen by choosing the value of t.

Ainsi, pour une valeur de t égale à T/2, autrement dit pour un rapport cyclique de 50% , l'écran à transmission variable a son coefficient de transmission au maximum pendant une moitié de période et au minimum pendant une moitié de période et le résultat équivaut à un coefficient de transmission moyen égal à la moyenne entre le coefficient de transmission maximum et le coefficient de transmission minimal. Lesdits moyens de pilotage 30 sont en outre configurés pour transmettre un signal de commande, contenant ledit signal puisé, à l'écran 28 à transmission variable. Thus, for a value of t equal to T / 2, in other words for a cyclic ratio of 50%, the variable transmission screen has its maximum transmission coefficient for a half period and at least for a half period and the result is equivalent to an average transmission coefficient equal to the average between the maximum transmission coefficient and the minimum transmission coefficient. Said control means 30 are further configured to transmit a control signal containing said pulsed signal to the variable transmission screen 28.

Pour cela, lesdits moyens de pilotage 30 comprennent, par exemple, un émetteur 38 d'ondes de télécommande, apte à transmettre le signal de commande à destination d'un récepteur 40 dudit écran à transmission variable 28. Ledit émetteur 38 est ici relié à l'unité de traitement 34. For this, said control means 30 comprise, for example, a transmitter 38 of remote control waves, adapted to transmit the control signal to a receiver 40 of said variable transmission screen 28. Said transmitter 38 is here connected to the processing unit 34.

Ledit récepteur 40 de l'écran 28 est avantageusement apte à commander le coefficient de transmission de l'écran à transmission variable, en particulier à partir dudit signal puisé. On entend par là qu'il est configuré pour appliquer à l'écran de transmission variable des ordres d'activation de l'écran à cristaux liquide et/ou des miroirs électro mécanique, correspondant au signal puisé. Lesdits moyens de pilotage, en particulier l'émetteur d'onde de télécommande 38, sont configurés pour transmettre le signal de commande selon un protocole de communication sans-fil. Il pourra s'agir du protocole correspondant aux normes IEEE 802.15.1 ainsi que toutes ses extensions (communément dénommé par la marque déposée Bluetooth) ou IEEE 802.1 1 (communément dénommé par la marque déposée Wi-Fi). Said receiver 40 of the screen 28 is advantageously able to control the transmission coefficient of the variable transmission screen, in particular from said pulsed signal. By this is meant that it is configured to apply to the variable transmission screen activation commands of the liquid crystal screen and / or electromechanical mirrors, corresponding to the pulsed signal. Said control means, in particular the remote control wave transmitter 38, are configured to transmit the control signal according to a wireless communication protocol. It may be the protocol corresponding to the IEEE 802.15.1 standards as well as all its extensions (commonly referred to as the Bluetooth trademark) or IEEE 802.1 1 (commonly referred to as the Wi-Fi trademark).

Selon l'invention, ledit écran 28 et lesdits moyens de pilotage 30 sont configurés de manière à pouvoir être embarqué sur le véhicule comme différents composants d'un produit après-vente, aptes à communiquer entre eux, de préférence indépendamment du véhicule. Le dispositif d'aide conforme à l'invention peut de la sorte être acquis par le conducteur indépendamment de son véhicule. Il pourra en particulier être utilisé dans des véhicules ne comprenant aucun équipement spécifique préinstallés pour contrôler le coefficient de transmission de l'écran 28. Lesdits moyens de pilotage 30 sont en outre distincts dudit écran 28 ce qui permet de limiter la sophistication de chacun des composants. According to the invention, said screen 28 and said control means 30 are configured so as to be on board the vehicle as different components of an after-sales product, able to communicate with each other, preferably independently of the vehicle. The aid device according to the invention can in this way be acquired by the driver independently of his vehicle. It may in particular be used in vehicles that do not include any specific equipment pre-installed to control the transmission coefficient of the screen 28. Said control means 30 are furthermore separate from said screen 28, which makes it possible to limit the sophistication of each of the components. .
