DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
[013] A vehicle user encounters various problem while parking his vehicle in a crowded parking lot. Sometimes, it is difficult for a driver to remember the location of his parked vehicle. Often this is a frustrating experience for the user to locate his vehicle in such area which may be new to the user. Precious time of the vehicle user is lost in searching for his vehicle while in some case the user gets lost in locating the vehicle.
[014] With respect to vehicle connectivity, one of the features offered by most of the connected apps is “Last Parked Location”. This feature is used to find the last parked location of the vehicle and to trace the vehicle there by. Once, the last parked location is tagged in the map, the customer can trace his/her way back to the vehicle by simply following instructions in the route map.
[015] Existing vehicles have telematics unit with GPS module in it. The user needs to trace back his/her path based on the recorded location on GPS. There are chances that the rider might be unsuccessful in tracing his path back to the parked location as the GPS has an accuracy of only 10 to 40 meters. Further the system also comes with a drawback that it uses telematics solution to trace back to the vehicle which in turn adds to the cost. Hence, there is a deficiency in accuracy of the existing system with GPS module in determining the location based on recorded last parked location since, the accuracy of GPS is around 10-40 meters only.
[016] Sometimes, the vehicle has plurality of Bluetooth transceivers to indicate the distance between parked vehicle and the current location of the user. This system does not use GPS for finding the parked location but uses plurality of Bluetooth transceivers. As the range of Bluetooth communication is limited, the user has to get very close to the parked vehicle in order to get input from the parked vehicle. If the user does not even know the location of parked vehicle, then this system cannot help him to find his/her parked vehicle. Moreover, the use of plurality of Bluetooth transceivers in the vehicle which in turn adds to the cost. A lot of battery voltage is drained in this process due to plurality of Bluetooth transceivers which can later pose a problem with the functioning of the vehicle.
[017] Additionally, as disclosed in known art, three Bluetooth transceivers are used to indicate the distance between the parked vehicle and the current location of the user. This system does not use GPS for finding the parked location. As the range of Bluetooth communication is limited, the user has to get very close to the parked vehicle in order to get input from the parked vehicle. If the user does not even know the location of parked vehicle, then this system cannot help him to find his/her parked vehicle. Moreover, this system uses three Bluetooth transceivers which in turn adds to the cost.
[018] Further, in a keyless entry vehicle, the vehicle is limited to IMEI number of the user device. This system is heavily dependent on the user device. There may be a situation when user is not in possession of that user device which is linked with the vehicle or the user may have lost it somewhere. In that scenario, it will be difficult for the user in locating the vehicle or share the vehicle with family and friends.
[019] The existing systems further has a number of applications related to “finding the vehicle feature” available to locate vehicles in crowded parking lots, wherein the user can operate a key fob with in-built Radio Frequency (RF) transceiver to activate turn signal lamps and beeper to identify the vehicle. An RF transceiver will be attached in the vehicle to communicate with the user key fob and activate the lamps and beeper.
[020] However, there are certain disadvantages of the above-mentioned RF transceiver-based application to locate a vehicle. There is a cost increase due to separate RF transceiver in vehicle for ‘Find vehicle’ feature. Further, there is a need to carry the key fob all the time for using the ‘Find vehicle’ feature. In case the battery of the key fob is dead, then one cannot use the ‘Find vehicle’ feature to locate his/her vehicle. Further, user is not aware if he/she is within the vehicle range as no acknowledgment is sent to the user. User is not aware of vehicle battery status due to which the ‘Find vehicle’ option might not activate the turn signal lamps and help with vehicle location identification.
[021] Further, the battery voltage is not monitored in this system in which a battery voltage is drained as the turn signal lamps and other indicators consumes a lot of power. There may a situation that the user may ran out of battery voltage while searching for the vehicle and could not start the vehicle.
[022] As disclosed in a prior art, the location of a parked vehicle is automatically recorded once the smartphone signal goes out of range with respect to the Bluetooth module which is in the vehicle. In such a case, the user needs to trace back his/her path based on the recorded location on GPS. There are chances that the rider might be unsuccessful in tracing his path back to the parked location as the GPS has an accuracy of only 10 to 40 meters. Further the system also comes with a drawback that it uses telematics solution to trace back to the vehicle which in turn adds to the cost.
[023] Furthermore, the existing systems do not give any solution to locate the vehicle easily as the notifications and instructions are sent to the user smartphone rather than indicating on the vehicle. This makes it tedious and confusing for the user to locate his/her vehicle. Therefore, there exists a need for a better design to track and locate the vehicle due above-mentioned drawbacks in existing systems.
[024] In another embodiment, in a conventional “hazard warning” system, the user switches ON a hazard warning switch when traveling in foggy conditions so that another following vehicle will be aware of the presence of the user’s vehicle. When “hazard warning” is active, all four turn signal lamps will blink at a fixed rate.
[025] Further, a “Hazard warning” function is also used when the vehicle is parked on the road to diagnose problems with the vehicle. In such a conventional “hazard warning” system, either the ignition switch has to be turned ON while hazard warning is active or the ignition switch has to be turned ON for activating the hazard warning. This causes loss of power and leads to user inconvenience. Hence, a better design of actuating “Hazard warning” function is required.
[026] Hence, it is an object of the present invention to provide an improved system which overcomes the above discussed and other related problems.
[027] It is another object of the present invention to provide an integrated “Find vehicle” module which provides greater functionality and is user friendly.
[028] It is further an object of the present invention to provide a low cost and reliable solution with multiple embodiments and a simpler to use version of a “Find vehicle”.
[029] It is further an object of the present invention to provide an interactive “Find vehicle” module which effectively communicates between the vehicle and the user device.
[030] As per an aspect of the present invention, a method for tracking of a vehicle comprising identification and verification of more than one user devices. Further, the method includes comparing one or more vehicle parameters which can be a battery voltage, with a predefined threshold vehicle parameter and thereby displaying a graphical display for a user on more than one user devices. The graphical display for a user includes plurality of blinks of representative images which can be chosen by a user and said representative images are displayed on the user device.
[031] As per a further embodiment, the tracking of the vehicle is achieved by accessing an application on one or more than one user devices using a PIN. Further, checking a Bluetooth module of the user device to confirm pairing of the user device with the vehicle and determining whether the user device is also in range of a Bluetooth signal. Further step includes accessing the battery voltage value through a secondary Bluetooth module of the vehicle and thereafter transmitting the battery voltage to the user device via a Bluetooth module. Further, comparing the battery voltage value with a predefined safe battery limit voltage value and thereby displaying possible number of blinks through a representative image on the user device. Further, the application when accessed by using the PIN, displays a recorded last parked value of the vehicle. The tracking of the vehicle is also frequent when a signal strength of increasing bandwidth is displayed on the user device if the user device is close to the vehicle.
[032] As per a further embodiment, the tracking of the vehicle is further achieved by displaying the signal strength as low when the real time battery voltage value is less than the predefined safe battery limit voltage. Further step includes displaying the graphical display for a user chosen plurality of blinks through representative images on the application of the user device, when the battery voltage value is greater than the predefined safe battery limit voltage.
[033] As per a further embodiment, the tracking of the vehicle is achieved by enabling switching ON of one of plurality of turn signal lamps when the Bluetooth module (202) of the user device receives a graphical display for a user and thereby fetches the status of the plurality of turn signal lamps using the secondary Bluetooth module on the vehicle and transmits it to the Bluetooth module of the user device. Further steps include displaying the status of the plurality of turn signal lamps to the user on the user device through the Bluetooth module of the user device.
[034] It is another objective of the present invention to provide, a tracking system for the vehicle comprising a communication module, a user device an application as a user interface, being connected to the vehicle and a plurality of turn signal lamps, which communicate wirelessly with the user device upon receiving inputs from the communication module and tracks the vehicle using the method as discussed above.
[035] As per a further embodiment, the communication module is a Bluetooth module and a wireless module. Further, the communication module also displays a “Hazard Warning Signal” during foggy condition. The communication module also controls a LED light to aid the user in visibility for locating the vehicle and the LED light runs on a separate battery.
[036] As per further embodiment, the tracking system can be accessed by different users with multiple profiles through same or different user devices using the same application to locate the vehicle. The communication module further displays the status of the battery charge and the status of the plurality of turn signal lamps on the user device when it receives the graphical display for a user on the application.
[037] In accordance with this configuration, one of the advantages of the present invention is displaying plurality of blinks via different representative images which helps the user in determination of the location of the vehicle by locating how close the user device is to the vehicle.
[038] In accordance with this configuration, one of the advantages of the present invention is that the secondary Bluetooth module on the vehicle is accessible when the GPS of the user device fails to locate the vehicle after a predefined range and thereby the user can use the above method to locate the vehicle in a closed parking area.
[039] In accordance with this configuration, one of the advantages of the present invention is that the user can locate the vehicle in foggy weather conditions on the road even when the ignition is off by accessing the tracking system which displays the “Hazard Warning Signal”.
[040] In accordance with this configuration, one of the advantages of the present invention is that multiple users including the family members of the user can locate the vehicle through their user devices using the same application and thereby avoiding duplicity of tracking system for each user to locate the same vehicle.
[041] The present subject matter is further described with reference to accompanying figures. It should be noted that the description and figures merely illustrate the principles of the present subject matter. Various arrangements may be devised that, although not explicitly described or shown herein, encompass the principles of the present subject matter. Moreover, all statements herein reciting principles, aspects, and examples of the present subject matter, as well as specific examples thereof, are intended to encompass equivalents thereof.
[042] The embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[043] Figure 1 illustrates a top perspective view of a saddle type vehicle (100), in accordance with one embodiment of the present subject matter. A vehicle (100) comprising an instrument cluster (101), said instrument cluster (101) being fixedly attached in the front portion of the vehicle (100). The instrument cluster (101) is configured to include a Bluetooth module and other communication elements. A turn Signal lamp driver (102) is configured to be attached fixedly on the vehicle (100). In another embodiment, the said turn Signal lamp driver (102) is configured to be enclosed inside said instrument cluster (101) of the vehicle (100). A rear turn signal lamp (103) is configured to be fixedly attached rearwardly under the seat of the vehicle (100). A front turn signal lamp (104) is configured to be fixedly attached on the sides of the vehicle (100).
[044] In another embodiment, a lamp check mechanism can also be attributed before turning on the ignition of the vehicle (100). During the initial starting of the vehicle (100) a lamp check is initiated in an ECO mode to determine that the plurality of turn signal lamps (103, 104) are functioning perfectly. The plurality of turn signal lamps (103, 104) will glow as an indication that the plurality of turn signal lamps (103, 104) are in perfect running condition. This further indicates that the vehicle (100) is in perfect running condition.
[045] Figure 2a illustrates a block diagram of a tracking system (200) in the vehicle (100) using Bluetooth connection, in accordance with one embodiment of the present subject matter. Figure 2b illustrates a block diagram of the tracking system (200) in the vehicle (100) using wireless module connection, in accordance with another embodiment of the present subject matter. For brevity, Figure 2a and Figure 2b will be discussed together. A tracking system (200) for the vehicle (100) comprising a communicatively connected user device (201), said user device (201) is configured to provide user friendly interface via application software for sending required commands to the vehicle (100). The user device (201) further comprises a communication module such as a Bluetooth module (202), said Bluetooth module (202) is paired to communicate wirelessly with the vehicle (100). The user device (201) further wirelessly communicates with the plurality of turn signal lamps (103, 104) upon receiving inputs from said communication module (202). The user device (201) further comprising an application as a user interface.
[046] Further, the instrument cluster (101) of the vehicle (100) further comprises a secondary Bluetooth module (203) which communicates wirelessly with the Bluetooth module (202) of the user device (201). The secondary Bluetooth module (203) transmits the communicated data to a Bluetooth to CAN converter (204). The Bluetooth to CAN converter (204) converts all Bluetooth data into CAN data and transmits it to other ECUs (Electronic Control Units).
[047] Generally, CAN (Controlled Area Network) communication protocol is used for communication between various vehicle mounted ECUs. The CAN data converted by the Bluetooth to CAN converter (204) is further provided to a turn signal (TSL) driver (205). The turn signal (TSL) driver (205) is configured to control the turn signals and thereby a signal is generated by the ECU to activate the LED lights (206) or activate the plurality of turn signal lamps (103, 104). This command from the ECU is given to turn ON the LED lights (206) in the instrument cluster (101) and or activate the plurality of turn signal lamps (103, 104).
[048] In another embodiment of the tracking system (200), a wireless communication through GPS (207) is possible. The user device (201) includes a GPS (207) and a wireless module (208). The wireless module (208) of the user device communicates wirelessly with a secondary wireless module (209) of the vehicle (100).
[049] The secondary wireless module (209) further interacts wirelessly with a CAN interface (210) to convert the wirelessly communicated data into CAN data. The CAN data converted by the CAN interface (210) is further provided to a TSL driver (205). The turn signal (TSL) driver (205) is configured to control the turn signals and thereby a signal is generated by the ECU to activate the separate LED lights (206) or to activate the plurality of turn signal lamps (103, 104). This command from the ECU is given to turn ON the LED lights (206) in the instrument cluster (101) and or to activate the plurality of turn signal lamps (103, 104).
[050] In another embodiment, the secondary Bluetooth module (203) of the vehicle (100) interacts with the Bluetooth module (202) of the user device to display a “Hazard Warning Signal” on the application of the user device (201). During a foggy weather condition, the secondary Bluetooth module (203) pairs with the Bluetooth module (202) and gives the “Hazard Warning Signal” on the application, if another vehicle is in range of the vehicle (100). As the pairing of the vehicle (100) and the user device (201) occurs through Bluetooth signals or via wireless communication, there is no need for the ignition of the vehicle (100) to be ON.
[051] In another embodiment, the tracking system (200) is configured to be accessed by different family members with multiple profiles in the same or different user device (201) to access the application to locate the vehicle (100). Different family members can install the same application in different user devices to track and locate the same vehicle.
[052] Figure 3a illustrates similar vehicles parked within a predefined range, in accordance with one embodiment of the present subject matter. Most of the Bluetooth based applications include option for locating vehicle’s last parked location. This feature includes saving the last parked location in the module display, once the ignition is switched off. After the last parked location is tagged, one needs to trace back his/her way the vehicle through map route. This is done through GPS. Since most of the GPS systems have an accuracy of 10 meters to 40 meters, there are chances that the rider might not succeed in locating his/her vehicle if there are many similar vehicles parked in the same range. To avoid such situations, Bluetooth based ‘Find vehicle’ module can be integrated with the last parked location tracker to make effective. It is similarly difficult to find the user vehicle in a system of similarly parked vehicles (300) inside a parking lot. A Bluetooth application thereby is used to find the user vehicle among similarly parked vehicles after the GPS systems fails.
[053] Figure 3b illustrates Bluetooth module showing the route traceability to locate the vehicle (100), in accordance with one embodiment of the present subject matter. A sample image (301) displays the distance to be travelled from the current location of the rider (302) to the parked location of the vehicle (303) that is already fed into the application. This representative image displays the total distance and the path required to be taken for the rider to reach to its parked vehicle.
[054] Figure 3c illustrates a schematic diagram of the user device (201) interacting with the vehicle (101), in accordance with one embodiment of the present subject matter. Furthermore, the user device (201) can be used to activate the application to blink the plurality of turn signal lamps (103, 104) in order to find the user vehicle in a system of similarly parked vehicles accessed by the user device (304).
[055] Figure 3d illustrates a schematic diagram of the application displaying the Bluetooth strength, in accordance with one embodiment of the present subject matter. A first representative image (306) is the indicative image which is shown in the application and displayed on the user device (201) to the user when the vehicle is at a distance of 10m from the user and the signal strength of the Bluetooth module (202) is weak by it being located far from the secondary Bluetooth module (203) of the vehicle. Furthermore, a second representative image (307) is the indicative image which is shown in the application and displayed on the user device (201) to the user when the vehicle is at a distance of 5m from the user and the signal strength of the Bluetooth module (202) is good by it being located almost near to the secondary Bluetooth module (203) of the vehicle. Furthermore, a third representative image (308) is the indicative image which is shown in the application and displayed on the user device (201) to the user when the vehicle is at a distance of 2m from the user and the signal strength of the Bluetooth module (202) is high by it being located very near to the secondary Bluetooth module (203) of the vehicle.
[056] Figure 3e illustrates a schematic diagram of the application displaying the number of blinks, in accordance with one embodiment of the present subject matter. A final representative image (309) is the indicative image which is shown in the application and displayed on the user device (201) to the user when the rider reaches the exact location of the parked vehicle. The user is enabled to configure the number of blinking lights to be displayed to the user in the third representative image (309). The user is enabled to configure a graphical display for a user such as only a single turn signal lamp (103) or both the plurality of turn signal lamps (103, 104) or a combination of both the plurality of turn signal lamps (103, 104) and the LED (206) to improve the visibility and enabling the user to find the vehicle easily. The LED (206) is configured to run on a separate battery. Further, in another embodiment, said secondary Bluetooth module (203) of the vehicle (100) is configured to inform the status of a battery upon receiving a graphical display for a user on the application of the user device (201).
[057] Figure 4a and Figure 4b illustrates a flowchart displaying a method to locate and track the vehicle (100) in a crowded place, as per embodiment, in accordance with one example of the present subject matter. A method to track and locate the parked vehicle in a crowded place or a parking lot involves numerous steps. Primarily the method for tracking the vehicle comprises fundamental steps such as, identifying and verifying one or more user devices. Further comparing one or more vehicle parameters with predefined threshold vehicle parameters and finally displaying a graphical display for a user on one or more user devices. After accessing the application as shown in step (401) using a PIN, said PIN displays a recorded last parked value of the vehicle. Thereafter, a logic unit of the user device (201) checks and calibrates, the Bluetooth module (202) of the user device (201) with the secondary Bluetooth module (203) of the vehicle, if the user device (201) is paired and is in range of the Bluetooth signal of the vehicle (100) as shown in step (402).
[058] Further, if the logic unit of the user device (201) determines that the user device (201) and vehicle (100) are not in range of the Bluetooth signal, the logic unit returns to the original page of the application.
[059] Further, if the logic unit of the user device (201) determines that the user device (201) and vehicle (100) are in range of the Bluetooth signal, the secondary Bluetooth module (203) of the vehicle (100) fetches the battery voltage of the vehicle (100). The said battery voltage is further transmitted through the Bluetooth module (202) to the user device (201) as shown in step (403).
[060] Further, if the ECU of the vehicle (100) determines by comparison that the battery voltage of the vehicle is less than the predefined safe battery limit voltage as shown in step (404), the application on the user device (201) displays the signal strength of the paired user device (201) and the vehicle (100) using the first, second or third representative images (306, 307, 308), said first, second or third representative images (306, 307, 308) being configured to display possible number of blinks of the graphical display for a user on the user device. Based on the closeness of the vehicle, the representative images on the user device (201) changes. Once the user is closest to the vehicle (100), the signal strength is maximum and the final representative image (309) is displayed on the user device (201) as shown in step (406).
[061] Further, if the ECU of the vehicle (100) determines that the battery voltage of the vehicle is greater than the predefined safe battery limit voltage, then the application on the user device (201) displays the possible number of blinks as shown in the final representative image (309) as shown in step (405). Further, based on the graphical display for a user , the graphical display for a user is communicated from the Bluetooth module (202) of the user device (201) to the secondary Bluetooth module (203) of the vehicle (100). The secondary Bluetooth module (203) of the vehicle further enables to activate the plurality of turn signal lamps (103, 104) to blink as shown in step (407).
[062] Further, the Bluetooth module (202) of the user device (201) fetches the status of the turn signal lamps (103, 104) from the secondary Bluetooth module (203) of the vehicle. The Bluetooth module (202) of the user device (201) further sends this data to the application of the user device (201) as shown in step (408).
[063] Thereafter, the application of the user device (201) through the logic unit of the vehicle (100) and the secondary Bluetooth module (203) fetches the status of the plurality of turn signal lamps (103,104) and further displays the status of said plurality of turn signal lamps (103, 104) on the user device (201) to the user as shown in step (409).
[064] While the present invention has been shown and described with reference to the foregoing preferred embodiments, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that changes in form, connection, and detail may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
