Description

In-vehicle device and incoming call notification method for in-vehicle device
Technical Field
The present invention relates to an in-vehicle device and a method for notifying an in-vehicle device of incoming call, and more particularly to an in-vehicle device and a method for notifying an in-vehicle device of incoming call when there is an incoming call and no occupant is present in a vehicle.
Background
When a driver calls in during the driving of a vehicle, the hand-held telephone answering is forbidden, and at the moment, if the driver wants to answer the telephone, the driver can only stop the vehicle at the roadside or in a parking lot to answer the telephone. In order to solve the problem that a user cannot answer a call in the driving process, the hands-free call function is developed. In general, a mobile phone and an in-vehicle device are connected by a wireless connection method such as Bluetooth (registered trademark) to realize a handsfree call function. As a wireless connection mode, the hands-free call function can be realized through WIFI connection. In addition, when the mobile phone and the in-vehicle device can be connected by a wired connection (USB connection) such as Carplay, a handsfree call function can be realized.
No matter the mobile phone is connected with the vehicle-mounted device in a Bluetooth wireless connection mode or a Carplay wired connection mode to realize the hands-free call function, when a call comes in at the mobile phone end, the sound of the call can be output through a loudspeaker or an earphone which is mounted in a vehicle. When the user selects to receive an incoming call, the voice of the user is inputted through a microphone mounted near the driver in the vehicle, and hands-free conversation is performed with the opposite party of the outgoing call.
Patent document 1 discloses a communication system of an in-vehicle device and a mobile phone, in which when a user brings the mobile phone into a vehicle and connects the mobile phone to the in-vehicle device by a wireless connection method to realize a handsfree call function, wireless communication between the in-vehicle device and the mobile phone is automatically interrupted when it is detected that the user takes the mobile phone out of the vehicle to walk. The user can freely use the mobile phone without any operation.
Patent document 2 discloses a vehicle-mounted communication terminal connection device that prompts a user when a device such as a cellular phone is connected to a vehicle-mounted device by wireless connection, and when the wireless connection is detected to be released or when the user pulls out a car key. Thus, the user can be prompted to prevent the device such as a mobile phone from being left in the vehicle.
However, in the case where the handsfree call function is realized when the mobile phone is connected to the in-vehicle apparatus, if the user does not get off the vehicle with the mobile phone, the mobile phone and the in-vehicle apparatus are still in a connected state. Therefore, when a telephone call comes in at the mobile phone end, sound is also output from a speaker in the vehicle.
In addition, when the mobile phone is connected with the vehicle-mounted device, under the condition that the hands-free call function can be realized, if the vehicle is not shut down or the vehicle-mounted device is in a power supply state, the vehicle-mounted device does not prompt the user to carry the mobile phone even if the user gets off the vehicle.
For example, after a user starts a vehicle, connects a mobile phone to an in-vehicle device, and realizes a handsfree phone call function, the user places the mobile phone in the vehicle, gets off the vehicle, and smokes the vehicle outside, or waits for another vehicle occupant outside the vehicle. In this case, the in-vehicle apparatus does not actively disconnect from the mobile phone. Meanwhile, the mobile phone and the vehicle-mounted device are still in a connected state, so that the vehicle-mounted device does not prompt the user to carry the mobile phone when the user gets off the vehicle. When a mobile phone terminal placed in a vehicle has an incoming call, the sound of the incoming call is also output from a speaker in the vehicle, and a user outside the vehicle may not hear the sound of the incoming call. If the door window, the door are both in the closed state and the output sound of the speaker is set small, the possibility that the user hears the incoming call sound is further reduced.
As described above, the following technical problems exist in the prior art: after the user connects the mobile phone to the in-vehicle device to realize the hands-free call function, when the user is not in the vehicle or outside the vehicle, and there is a call incoming at the mobile phone terminal placed in the vehicle and connected to the in-vehicle device, there is a possibility that the user outside the vehicle cannot hear the sound of the call incoming. Thus, the user may miss an important incoming call again.

Disclosure of Invention
The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, and an object of the present invention is to provide an in-vehicle device and a call incoming notification method of the in-vehicle device, which can be known outside a vehicle when a call is incoming from a mobile phone terminal even when the mobile phone is placed in the vehicle and connected to the in-vehicle device.
The present invention provides an in-vehicle device, comprising: the connecting part connected with the mobile terminal further comprises: a call incoming detection part for detecting whether there is call incoming for the mobile terminal when the mobile terminal is connected with the connection part; a passenger confirming part for confirming whether there is passenger in the vehicle when the incoming call detecting part detects that there is incoming call of the mobile terminal; and a notification unit configured to notify the outside of the vehicle that there is an incoming call to the mobile terminal when the occupant confirmation unit confirms that there is no occupant in the vehicle.
Thus, according to the in-vehicle device of the present invention, when the mobile terminal is connected to the in-vehicle device, the user can know that there is an incoming call at the mobile terminal outside the vehicle by notifying the outside of the vehicle that there is an incoming call at the mobile terminal when there is an incoming call at the mobile terminal, even if the user is not inside the vehicle.
The notification unit of the in-vehicle device is configured by a speaker mounted in a vehicle, and the in-vehicle device further includes a volume adjustment unit configured to adjust an output volume of the speaker in the vehicle. When the mobile terminal has a call and no passenger is in the vehicle, the notification part increases the output volume of the loudspeaker through the volume adjusting part and notifies the outside of the vehicle that the mobile terminal has the call.
Therefore, the output volume of the loudspeaker is increased, so that the sound of the loudspeaker in the automobile can be heard easily outside the automobile, and the mobile terminal is known to have a call.
The vehicle-mounted device also comprises a window control part for controlling the opening and closing of the window; when the mobile terminal has a call and no passenger is in the vehicle, the notification unit increases the output volume of the speaker through the volume adjustment unit, and controls the window to be opened through the window control unit to notify the outside of the vehicle that the mobile terminal has a call.
Thus, the volume of the loudspeaker in the vehicle is increased, and the window is controlled to be opened, so that the sound can be easily transmitted to the outside of the vehicle. Therefore, the sound of the loudspeaker in the vehicle can be heard more easily outside the vehicle, so that the mobile phone terminal can know that the mobile phone terminal has the incoming call.
The vehicle-mounted device may further include a vehicle position detection unit configured to detect a current position of the vehicle; a receiving unit that receives current position information of a user from a user terminal worn by the user; and a distance calculating unit that calculates a distance between the vehicle and the user based on the current position of the vehicle detected by the vehicle position detecting unit and the current position information of the user received by the receiving unit; when there is an incoming call in the mobile terminal and there is no passenger in the vehicle, the volume adjusting unit increases the output volume of the speaker based on the distance information calculated by the distance calculating unit.
Therefore, according to the calculated distance between the user and the vehicle, the user can determine the volume which needs to be increased and how much decibels can be heard by the user, and the user is informed of the incoming call of the mobile terminal at the optimal volume.
The notification unit of the in-vehicle device may be configured by a speaker mounted on an outside of the vehicle, and when there is an incoming call at the mobile terminal and there is no passenger in the vehicle, the notification unit may output a sound through the speaker mounted on the outside of the vehicle to notify the outside of the vehicle that there is an incoming call at the mobile terminal.
The speaker outside the vehicle is different from the speaker inside the vehicle, and the output sound is not obstructed by the closed space inside the vehicle, so that a user outside the vehicle can easily hear the sound. Thus, it is possible to know that the mobile terminal has an incoming call.
The vehicle-mounted device can also be provided with a vehicle lamp control part for controlling the turning on and off of the vehicle lamp; when the mobile terminal has a call and no passenger is in the vehicle, the notification unit turns on the lamp through the lamp control unit to notify the vehicle of the call.
Therefore, when the lamp is turned on, the user can know that the mobile phone terminal has the incoming call through the turning on of the lamp even though the user cannot hear the sound when the mobile phone terminal in the vehicle calls in.
The vehicle-mounted device may further include a door state detection unit that detects an open/close state of a door; when the mobile terminal has a call and no passenger is in the vehicle, the vehicle door state detection unit detects that the vehicle door is closed, and the notification unit notifies the outside of the vehicle that the mobile terminal has a call.
And only when the vehicle door is closed, the mobile terminal is informed of the incoming call outside the vehicle. When the door is opened, the sound of incoming call can be easily transmitted to the outside of the vehicle, and even if the outside of the vehicle is not informed that the mobile terminal has the incoming call, the user can easily know that the mobile terminal has the incoming call. Therefore, the vehicle-mounted device can be more intelligent by detecting the opening and closing state of the vehicle door, and the convenience of the vehicle-mounted device is improved.
The vehicle-mounted device can also be provided with a telephone book acquisition part for acquiring a telephone book which is stored in the mobile terminal and at least comprises telephone number information; a telephone number determination unit which determines whether or not the telephone number is a telephone number registered in the telephone directory, based on a telephone number of an incoming call and a telephone number in the acquired telephone directory, when the mobile terminal has an incoming call; when the mobile phone has an incoming call and the passenger is not in the vehicle, the telephone number judging unit judges that the telephone number of the incoming call is the telephone number registered in the telephone directory, and the notifying unit notifies the vehicle exterior that the mobile terminal has an incoming call.
Thus, by determining whether or not the incoming call number is a number registered in the telephone directory, the notification to the outside of the vehicle is made only when the telephone number of the incoming call is a telephone number in the telephone directory. Further, it is possible to prevent the user from being bothered by strange numbers, nuisance calls, and the like.
The occupant checking unit of the vehicle-mounted device may further check whether the occupant is within a predetermined distance range of the vehicle after checking that the occupant is not present in the vehicle; when the mobile terminal has a call, the passenger confirming part confirms that no passenger is in the vehicle and the passenger is within a certain distance range of the vehicle, the informing part informs the outside of the vehicle that the mobile terminal has the call.
Thus, by further confirming whether or not the occupant is within a certain distance range of the vehicle, only when the occupant is within the certain distance range of the vehicle is notified. No notification is made when the occupant is not within a certain distance range of the vehicle. Furthermore, the vehicle-mounted device is more intelligent, and the convenience of the vehicle-mounted device is improved.
The invention also provides a telephone incoming call notification method of the vehicle-mounted device, which comprises the following steps: a connection step of connecting with a mobile terminal; a call incoming detection step of detecting whether a call is incoming to the mobile terminal when the mobile terminal is connected; a passenger confirming step, when detecting that the mobile terminal has a telephone call, confirming whether a passenger is in the vehicle; and a notification step of notifying the outside of the vehicle of the incoming call of the mobile terminal when it is confirmed that the occupant is not present in the vehicle.

Detailed Description
Embodiments applicable to the present invention are described below with reference to the drawings.
The in-vehicle device of the present invention is an electronic device disposed in a vehicle, and for example, the in-vehicle device may be an external or internal in-vehicle navigation device, or may be an in-vehicle audio device having a bluetooth communication function. The mobile terminal is a mobile terminal capable of making and receiving calls, such as a mobile phone, a smart phone and the like.
(first embodiment)
A first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to fig. 1 and 2. Fig. 1 is a block diagram showing a configuration of an in-vehicle device according to a first embodiment of the present invention. The in-vehicle device 10A is connected to the mobile terminal 20. The in-vehicle device 10A includes a connection unit 1, an incoming call detection unit 2, a control unit 3, an occupant confirmation unit 4, and a notification unit 5. Here, the connection portion 1 may be connected to the mobile terminal through a wireless connection module such as bluetooth or WIFI, or a wired interface such as USB. When the connection part 1 is formed by a bluetooth module, the mobile terminal and the in-vehicle device are connected by bluetooth, and the HFP (Hands-free Profile) protocol is satisfied to further establish connection, so that the Hands-free call function can be realized. When the connecting part is composed of a USB interface, when the mobile terminal and the vehicle-mounted device are connected through a USB line to realize the Carplay function, the hand-free call function can be realized in the vehicle. In addition, the WIFI wireless connection is similar, and when the vehicle-mounted device and the mobile terminal simultaneously meet the specified protocol, the hands-free call function can be achieved.
The incoming call detection unit 2 is configured to transmit an incoming call signal to the in-vehicle device when the in-vehicle device is connected to the mobile terminal to realize a handsfree call function and when the mobile terminal has an incoming call, and to confirm the presence or absence of the incoming call by detecting whether the incoming call signal is received or not.
The control unit 3 includes a CPU, a ROM, and a RAM, which are not shown, and performs various controls and processes on the in-vehicle device 10A by a built-in application program. Particularly various controls for hands-free calling. The connection unit 1, the incoming call detection unit 2, the occupant confirmation unit 4, and the notification unit 5 are connected.
The occupant confirming unit 4 confirms the condition of the occupant in the vehicle. For example, a weight sensor (not shown) may be provided in the seat, and when a vehicle occupant is seated, the sensor generates a signal to the control unit. When the control unit receives the signal of the sensor, the passenger in the vehicle can be confirmed. When no sensor signal is present, it can be confirmed that no occupant is present in the vehicle. In addition, whether a passenger is present in the vehicle may be confirmed by a camera provided therein, or whether a passenger is present in the vehicle may be confirmed by an ultrasonic sensor that can sense the presence of a person. Further, the presence or absence of a passenger in the vehicle may be checked by a vehicle speed sensor and a door open/close sensor provided. When the vehicle speed is zero, the vehicle can be judged to be stopped, then the vehicle door opening and closing sensing sensor senses the opening and closing of the vehicle door, and the condition that no passenger is in the vehicle can be confirmed.
The notification unit 5 notifies the outside of the vehicle of the incoming call to the mobile terminal by transmitting the sound of the incoming call to the outside of the vehicle. Alternatively, a device mounted outside the vehicle notifies the outside of the vehicle of the incoming call.
A telephone incoming call notification method according to a first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the flowchart of fig. 2.
First, in step S101, the in-vehicle device 10A is connected to the mobile terminal 20 via the connection unit 1. For example, when the in-vehicle device 10A and the mobile terminal 20 are connected by bluetooth and connected by HFP protocol to realize the handsfree call function, the process proceeds to step S102. In step S102, the incoming call detection unit 2 of the in-vehicle device 10 detects whether there is an incoming call. When an incoming call is detected (yes in step S102), the process proceeds to step S103. In step S103, the occupant determination unit 4 of the in-vehicle device 10A determines whether or not an occupant is present in the vehicle. For example, an image of the inside of the vehicle may be acquired by a camera provided in the vehicle, and the presence or absence of the occupant in the vehicle may be confirmed by analyzing the acquired image of the inside of the vehicle. When it is confirmed that there is no occupant in the vehicle (no in step S103), the process proceeds to step S104. In step S104, the in-vehicle device 10A notifies the outside of the vehicle of the incoming call via the notification unit 5.
If no incoming call is detected in step S102 (no in step S102), the process returns to step S101. In step S103, if it is confirmed that the occupant is present in the vehicle (yes in step S103), the process ends.
In the in-vehicle device 10A according to the present embodiment, when the mobile terminal is connected to the in-vehicle device, even if there is an incoming call at the mobile terminal and there is no passenger in the vehicle, the user can know that there is an incoming call at the mobile terminal outside the vehicle by notifying the outside of the vehicle of the incoming call.
(second embodiment)
Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to fig. 3, 4, and 5. In the present embodiment, in addition to the first embodiment, the output volume of the speaker in the vehicle is further adjusted to notify the vehicle exterior that there is an incoming call at the mobile terminal. The following description focuses on differences of the present embodiment from the first embodiment, and the same or similar contents as or to the first embodiment will be omitted in the present embodiment.
Fig. 3 is a block diagram showing a configuration of an in-vehicle device according to a second embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 3, the in-vehicle device 10B is the in-vehicle device 10A of the first embodiment, and further includes a volume adjustment unit 21 and an audio amplifier unit 22. The in-vehicle device 10B is connected to speakers 30 mounted in the vehicle, and 4 or more speakers 30 may be provided in the vehicle. Here, the control unit 3 further transmits a control signal for adjusting the volume to the volume adjustment unit 21. When the incoming call detection unit 2 detects an incoming call and the occupant confirmation unit 4 confirms that there is no occupant in the vehicle, the control unit 3 sends a signal for increasing the sound volume to the sound volume adjustment unit 21. The user may set the value for increasing the volume by a sound setting unit, not shown, and the in-vehicle device 10B may customize one sound value. The volume adjustment unit 21 increases the volume of the sound upon receiving the signal for increasing the volume transmitted from the control unit 3. Then, the sound amplifier 22 receives the volume-up signal from the volume adjuster 21, amplifies the sound signal to a predetermined volume, and finally outputs the volume-up sound through the speaker 30.
Here, the increased volume is to increase the volume of the incoming call sound. When the portable terminal 20 is connected to the in-vehicle device 10B and the handsfree call function is realized, since the incoming call sound is output through the speaker 30 in the vehicle, when the portable terminal 20 has an incoming call, the notification unit 5 outputs the incoming call sound with the increased volume through the speaker 30 in the vehicle to notify the outside of the vehicle that the mobile terminal has an incoming call.
When the incoming call is terminated or the user answers the incoming call, the control section 3 again sends a signal for adjusting the sound to the volume adjusting section 21, and adjusts the sound to the volume before the increase. Further, it is possible to prevent the user from being bothered by increasing the output volume of the sound.
Next, a call incoming notification method of an in-vehicle device according to a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the flowchart of fig. 4 and the schematic diagram of fig. 5.
Fig. 4 is a specific flowchart showing a telephone incoming call notification method of the in-vehicle apparatus according to the second embodiment of the present invention. Steps in the call incoming notification method of the in-vehicle apparatus in fig. 4 that are the same as those in the call incoming notification method of the in-vehicle apparatus of the first embodiment shown in fig. 2 are denoted by the same reference numerals. Here, since the operations in step S101 to step S103 in fig. 4 are the same, detailed description thereof is omitted here.
Specifically, in the present embodiment, when the occupant checking unit 4 checks that there is no occupant in the vehicle (no in step S103), the control unit 3 transmits a signal for increasing the volume to the volume adjustment unit 21, and the volume of the incoming call sound is increased by the volume adjustment unit 21 and the sound amplification unit 22 (step S201). Finally, the notification unit 5 outputs the call incoming sound with the volume increased through the speaker 30 to notify the vehicle exterior that there is a call incoming to the mobile terminal (step S202).
In the in-vehicle device 10B according to the present embodiment, when the portable terminal is connected to the in-vehicle device, even if the portable terminal has an incoming call and there is no passenger in the vehicle, the in-vehicle device outputs an incoming call sound with the volume increased by the speaker in the vehicle, and notifies the vehicle outside of the presence of the incoming call. Therefore, as shown in fig. 5, the user can easily know that the mobile terminal has an incoming call even outside the vehicle.
(third embodiment)
Next, a third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to fig. 6 and 7. In the present embodiment, in addition to the second embodiment, the opening and closing of the window is controlled to notify the outside of the vehicle that there is an incoming call to the mobile terminal. The following description focuses on differences of the present embodiment from the second embodiment, and the same or similar contents as or to the second embodiment will be omitted in the present embodiment.
Fig. 6 is a block diagram showing a configuration of an in-vehicle device according to a third embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 6, the in-vehicle device 10C includes a window control unit 31 in addition to the in-vehicle device 10B according to the second embodiment, in the control unit 3. The window control unit 31 controls opening and closing of the window. Here, the window control unit 31 may be configured separately. When the incoming call detection unit 2 detects an incoming call and the occupant confirmation unit 4 confirms that there is no occupant in the vehicle, the control unit 3 sends a volume up signal to the volume adjustment unit 21, and the window control unit 31 controls the window to open the window.
When the incoming call is ended or the user answers the incoming call, the control section 3 may again send a signal for adjusting the volume to the volume adjusting section 21 to adjust the volume to the volume before the increase. At the same time, the window control section 31 controls the window to close. Thus, it is possible to prevent the user from being bothered by increasing the output volume of sound and opening the window.
In addition, when there is an incoming call in the mobile terminal and there is no passenger in the vehicle, the window control unit 31 may control all windows of the vehicle to be opened simultaneously, or may control any one of the windows of the vehicle to be opened. Further, the window control unit may open the window only by a predetermined size. For example, the window may be opened by only 10cm to transmit the sound to the outside of the vehicle.
In addition, if the window is already in the open state when the call is incoming and no passenger is in the vehicle, the window control section will not operate any more.
Next, a call incoming notification method of an in-vehicle device according to a third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the flowchart of fig. 7.
Fig. 7 is a specific flowchart showing a telephone incoming call notification method of a vehicle-mounted device according to a third embodiment of the present invention. Steps in the flow chart of the telephone call notification method of the in-vehicle apparatus in fig. 7 that are the same as those in the telephone call notification method of the in-vehicle apparatus in the second embodiment shown in fig. 4 are denoted by the same reference numerals. Here, since the operations in step S101 to step S103 in fig. 7 are the same, detailed description thereof is omitted here.
Specifically, in the present embodiment, when the occupant checking unit 4 checks that there is no occupant in the vehicle (no in step S103), the control unit 3 transmits a signal to increase the incoming call sound to the sound volume adjustment unit 21, and the sound volume adjustment unit 21 increases the volume of the incoming call sound and the window control unit 31 controls the window to be opened (step S301). Finally, the notification unit 5 outputs the call sound with the volume increased through the speaker 30 in a state where the window is opened, to notify the outside of the vehicle that there is a call incoming to the mobile terminal (step S302).
In the in-vehicle device 10C according to the present embodiment, when the portable terminal is connected to the in-vehicle device, even if there is an incoming call on the portable terminal and there is no passenger in the vehicle, the window is controlled to be opened, and the incoming call sound with the increased volume is output through the speaker in the vehicle, so that the sound can be transmitted to a further range outside the vehicle more easily. Therefore, the user can know that the mobile phone terminal has the incoming call more easily outside the vehicle.
(fourth embodiment)
Next, a fourth embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to fig. 8 and 9. In the present embodiment, in addition to the second embodiment, the output volume is adjusted based on the position of the vehicle and the position information of the user. The following description focuses on differences of the present embodiment from the second embodiment, and the same or similar contents as or to the second embodiment will be omitted in the present embodiment.
Fig. 8 is a block diagram showing a configuration of an in-vehicle device according to a fourth embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 8, the in-vehicle device 10D is connected to the map database 50 in addition to the in-vehicle device 10B according to the second embodiment, and includes a receiving unit 41, a vehicle position detecting unit 42, and a distance calculating unit 43. The map database 50 is composed of a storage medium such as a hard disk, a DVD-ROM, a VCD-ROM, a memory card, or a semiconductor memory, and stores map data. The map database 50 may be built into the in-vehicle device 10D. The receiving unit 41 is connected to the user terminal 40 and acquires current position information of the user. Here, the user terminal 40 is a sports bracelet, a smart watch, or the like that is carried or worn by the user and that can transmit the user's own position information. The vehicle position detecting unit 42 stores map data based on absolute longitude and latitude information indicating the vehicle acquired by the GPS antenna and based on the map database 50, and detects the current position of the vehicle on the map. The distance calculation unit 43 calculates the distance between the user and the vehicle based on the user current position information received by the reception unit 41, the map database 50, and the vehicle position detected by the vehicle position detection unit 42. The volume adjustment unit 21 adjusts the volume based on the distance information calculated by the distance calculation unit 43. Here, the volume adjustment unit 21 increases the volume as the distance between the user and the vehicle increases.
Table 1 is a table showing a correspondence relationship between the distance between the user and the vehicle and the volume increase, and it can be known from table 1 that the larger the distance between the user and the vehicle, the larger the volume increase value.
TABLE 1
Distance between user and bicycle (m) Numerical value of increasing volume (dB)
1 15
1.5 25
2 35
3 50
In the present embodiment, the correspondence relationship between the distance between the user and the vehicle and the volume up value is not limited to the data in table 1, and the value in table 1 is only one correspondence database set for the purpose of describing the present embodiment. The user can manually set the database, and the vehicle can intelligently set the corresponding relation according to the information of the vehicle type, the speaker type, the currently set output volume, the opening and closing of the vehicle window and the like.
In addition, when the incoming call is terminated or the user answers the incoming call, the control section 3 may also transmit a signal for adjusting the volume to the volume adjusting section 21 again to adjust the volume to the volume before the increase.
Next, a call incoming notification method of an in-vehicle device according to a fourth embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to a flowchart of fig. 9. Steps in the call incoming notification method of the in-vehicle apparatus in fig. 9 that are the same as those in the call incoming notification method of the in-vehicle apparatus in the second embodiment shown in fig. 4 are denoted by the same reference numerals. Here, since the operations of step S101 to step S103 in fig. 9 are the same, the description thereof is omitted here.
Specifically, in the present embodiment, when the occupant checking unit 4 checks that there is no occupant in the vehicle (no in step S103), the distance calculating unit 43 calculates the distance between the user and the vehicle based on the user position information received by the receiving unit 41, the map database 50, and the vehicle position detected by the vehicle position detecting unit 42 (step S401). The volume adjustment unit 21 increases the volume of the incoming call sound based on the distance information between the user and the vehicle and the data in table 1 (step S402). The volume adjusting unit 21 increases the volume of the incoming call sound, amplifies the sound by the sound amplifying unit 22, and finally the notification unit 5 outputs the increased volume of the incoming call sound through the speaker 30 to notify the vehicle exterior that there is an incoming call at the mobile terminal (step S403).
In addition, in the present embodiment, in combination with the third embodiment, the in-vehicle device 10D may further include a window control unit that controls the window to be opened and increases the volume of the incoming call sound to notify the presence of the incoming call to the mobile terminal outside the vehicle, based on the calculated distance between the user and the vehicle when there is an incoming call and there is no passenger in the vehicle.
With the in-vehicle device 10D of the present embodiment, when the mobile terminal is connected to the in-vehicle device, even if there is an incoming call from the mobile terminal, and there is no passenger in the vehicle, it is determined how much decibel the user needs to increase the volume of the sound from the speaker in the vehicle based on the calculated distance between the user and the vehicle. Thus, the user can be notified of the incoming call to the mobile terminal at an optimum volume.
(fifth embodiment)
Next, a fifth embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to fig. 10 and 11. In the present embodiment, in addition to the first embodiment, the mobile terminal is connected to a speaker provided outside the vehicle, and the mobile terminal is notified of an incoming call through the speaker outside the vehicle. The following description focuses on differences of the present embodiment from the first embodiment, and the same or similar contents as or to the first embodiment will be omitted in the present embodiment.
Fig. 10 is a block diagram showing a configuration of an in-vehicle device according to a fifth embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 10, the in-vehicle device 10E is connected to a speaker 60 provided outside the vehicle. When the incoming call detection unit 2 detects an incoming call and the occupant confirmation unit 4 confirms that there is no occupant in the vehicle, the notification unit 5 notifies the outside of the vehicle of the incoming call of the mobile terminal through the speaker 60 provided outside the vehicle. Here, the notification unit 5 may directly output the incoming call sound through the speaker 60 provided outside the vehicle, or may notify the mobile terminal 20 of the incoming call outside the vehicle with a specific sound. For example, the user may customize a sound to indicate an alert tone when a phone call is incoming.
Next, a call incoming notification method of an in-vehicle device according to a fifth embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the flowchart of fig. 11. Steps in the flow chart of the telephone call notification method of the in-vehicle apparatus in fig. 11 that are the same as those in the telephone call notification method of the in-vehicle apparatus in the first embodiment shown in fig. 2 are denoted by the same reference numerals. Here, since the operations of step S101 to step S103 in fig. 11 are the same, the description thereof is omitted here.
Specifically, in the present embodiment, when the occupant checking unit 4 checks that there is no occupant in the vehicle (no in step S103), the notification unit 5 notifies the outside of the vehicle of the incoming call to the mobile terminal 20 through the speaker 60 provided outside the vehicle (step S501).
Thus, with the in-vehicle device 10E of the present embodiment, when the portable terminal is connected to the in-vehicle device, even if there is an incoming call to the portable terminal, if there is no passenger in the vehicle, the presence of an incoming call to the portable terminal is notified to the outside of the vehicle through the speaker provided outside the vehicle. Whether the incoming call sound is directly output or the self-defined sound used for indicating the incoming call is output, the mobile terminal can be easily known to have the incoming call outside the vehicle.
(sixth embodiment)
Next, a sixth embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to fig. 12 and 13. In the present embodiment, in addition to the first embodiment, the lighting of the lamp is controlled to notify the outside of the vehicle that there is an incoming call to the mobile terminal.

Fig. 12 is a block diagram showing a configuration of an in-vehicle device according to a sixth embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 12, the in-vehicle device 10F is the in-vehicle device 10A according to the first embodiment, and the control unit 3 further includes a lamp control unit 61. The lamp control section 61 controls lighting and turning off of the lamp. The lamp control unit 61 may control the lighting and the turning off of the illumination lamp, and may also control the lighting and the turning off of the dual flashing lamp. In the present embodiment, the lighting of the double flashing lights of the vehicle light control section notifies the outside of the vehicle that there is an incoming call to the mobile terminal. The lamp control unit 61 may be configured separately. When the incoming call detection unit 2 detects an incoming call and the occupant confirmation unit 4 confirms that there is no occupant in the vehicle, the lamp control unit 61 controls the double flashing lamp of the vehicle to be turned on. The notification unit 5 notifies the exterior of the vehicle of an incoming call to the mobile terminal by controlling the lighting of the lamp by the lamp control unit 61.
When the incoming call is over or the user answers the incoming call, the vehicle lamp control part controls the vehicle lamp to turn off the lighted vehicle lamp.
In the present embodiment, the notification unit controls the lamp by the lamp control unit to turn on the lamp to notify the outside of the vehicle that there is an incoming call to the mobile terminal. Here, the lamp control portion may also control lamp on-off-on, that is, lamp blinking. The notification unit notifies the mobile terminal of an incoming call by blinking the lamp.
Next, a call incoming notification method of an in-vehicle device according to a sixth embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the flowchart of fig. 13. Steps in the call incoming notification method of the in-vehicle device in fig. 13 that are the same as those in the call incoming notification method of the in-vehicle device of the first embodiment shown in fig. 2 are denoted by the same reference numerals. Here, since the operations of step S101 to step S103 in fig. 13 are the same, the description thereof is omitted here.
Specifically, in the present embodiment, when the occupant checking unit 4 checks that there is no occupant in the vehicle (no in step S103), the lamp control unit 61 controls the lamp to be turned on (step S601). Finally, the notification unit 5 turns on the lamp of the vehicle by the lamp control unit 61 to notify the vehicle exterior that there is an incoming call to the mobile terminal (step S602).
In the in-vehicle device 10F according to the present embodiment, when the portable terminal is connected to the in-vehicle device, even if there is an incoming call at the portable terminal, if there is no passenger in the vehicle, the vehicle lamp is turned on to notify the vehicle that there is an incoming call at the portable terminal. Therefore, even if the user outside the vehicle cannot hear the sound when the mobile terminal in the vehicle has the incoming call, the user can know that the mobile terminal has the incoming call by lighting the vehicle lamp.
(seventh embodiment)
Next, a seventh embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to fig. 14 and 15. In the present embodiment, in addition to any one of the first to sixth embodiments, whether or not the door is open is further confirmed, and whether or not the incoming call is made to the mobile terminal is notified to the outside of the vehicle is determined. The following description focuses on differences of the present embodiment from the first to sixth embodiments, and an example of the first embodiment in which the present embodiment is modified will be specifically described below. The same or similar contents as those of the first embodiment will not be described in this embodiment.
Fig. 14 is a block diagram showing a configuration of an in-vehicle device according to a seventh embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 14, the in-vehicle device 10G further includes a door state detection unit 71. The door state detection unit 71 can detect the open and closed states of the door by a sensor for checking whether the door is closed.
When the incoming call detection unit 2 detects an incoming call and the occupant confirmation unit 4 confirms that there is no occupant in the vehicle, the door state detection unit 71 confirms the open/closed state of the door. When the door is detected to be open, the incoming call sound can be transmitted to the outside of the vehicle, so that the notification unit 5 does not need to notify the outside of the vehicle that the mobile terminal has an incoming call. Only when the door is detected to be closed, the notification unit 5 notifies the outside of the vehicle that there is an incoming call to the mobile terminal.
In addition, the door state detection section 71 can further detect whether or not the door is in the locked state. When the door is detected to be in the locked state, it is considered that the user is not around the vehicle. Therefore, the mobile terminal can be notified of the incoming call without being outside the vehicle. However, if the door is in the locked state and the same telephone number is called in a plurality of times, it is possible to further confirm (not shown) whether the door (lock/unlock) control terminal, that is, the door controller can receive the information transmitted from the in-vehicle device, and if the door control terminal can receive the information transmitted from the in-vehicle device, it is possible to transmit an incoming call from the mobile terminal to the door control terminal.
In the above embodiment, the door state detection unit detects the open and closed states of the door, and determines whether or not to notify the outside of the vehicle that the mobile terminal has an incoming call. Here, the state of the door is confirmed, that is, whether or not the sound in the vehicle can be transmitted to the outside of the vehicle, and the open and closed states of the window may be detected by the window state detecting section, and whether or not the incoming call is notified to the outside of the vehicle from the mobile terminal may be determined. Whether the mobile terminal is informed of the incoming call outside the vehicle can be determined again through the opening or closing of the skylight. That is, if it is confirmed that the sound in the vehicle can be transmitted to the outside of the vehicle, the notification to the outside of the vehicle may not be performed.
Next, a call incoming notification method of a vehicle-mounted device according to a seventh embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to a flowchart of fig. 15. Steps in the call incoming call notification method flowchart of the in-vehicle device in fig. 15 that are the same as those in the call incoming call notification method flowcharts of the in-vehicle devices of the first to sixth embodiments are denoted by the same reference numerals. Here, since the operations of step S101 to step S103 in fig. 15 are the same, the description thereof is omitted here.
Specifically, in the present embodiment, when the occupant checking unit 4 checks that there is no occupant in the vehicle (no in step S103), the door state detection unit 71 further detects the open/closed state of the door. When the door is detected to be in the closed state (no in step S701), the notification unit 5 notifies the outside of the vehicle that there is an incoming call to the mobile terminal (step S104).
When the door state detection unit 71 detects that the door is in the open state (yes in step S701), the process ends.
With the in-vehicle device 10G of the present embodiment, when the portable terminal is connected to the in-vehicle device, the portable terminal is notified of an incoming call, and when there is no passenger in the vehicle, and only when the door is closed, the vehicle exterior is notified that there is an incoming call. The vehicle-mounted device can be more intelligent, and the convenience of the vehicle-mounted device is improved.
(eighth embodiment)
Next, an eighth embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to fig. 16, 17, and 18. In this embodiment, in addition to any one of the first to sixth embodiments, the telephone number of the incoming call is further confirmed, and only when the incoming call is a registered number in the telephone directory, the mobile terminal is notified of the incoming call outside the vehicle. The following description focuses on differences of the present embodiment from the first to sixth embodiments, and an example of the first embodiment in which the present embodiment is modified will be specifically described below. The same or similar contents as those of the first embodiment will not be described in this embodiment.
Fig. 16 is a block diagram showing a configuration of an in-vehicle device according to an eighth embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 16, the in-vehicle device 10H further includes a telephone directory acquisition unit 81 and a telephone number determination unit 82. When the in-vehicle device 10H is connected to the mobile terminal 20 via bluetooth and meets the HFP protocol, which may implement a face-to-face call, and further meets the pbap (phone Book Access profile) protocol, the phone Book acquiring unit 81 of the in-vehicle device 10H may automatically acquire the phone Book information of the mobile terminal 20. When the in-vehicle device 10H and the mobile terminal 20 are connected by another connection method, the telephone directory acquisition unit 81 may acquire the telephone directory information by transmitting a request for acquiring a telephone directory to the mobile terminal 20 via the connection unit 1. Here, the acquired phonebook includes at least phone number information. When a call is incoming, the telephone number determination unit 82 determines whether or not the telephone number of the incoming call is the telephone number registered in the telephone directory. When the incoming call detection unit 2 detects an incoming call and the passenger confirmation unit 4 confirms that there is no passenger in the vehicle, the telephone number determination unit 82 determines whether or not the telephone number of the incoming call is the telephone number registered in the telephone directory acquired by the telephone directory acquisition unit 81. Only when the telephone number of the incoming call is the telephone number registered in the telephone directory, the notification unit 5 notifies the outside of the vehicle that there is an incoming call to the mobile terminal. As shown in fig. 18, when the telephone number of the incoming call is an unknown number of the unregistered telephone directory, the mobile terminal is not notified of the incoming call outside the vehicle.
The telephone number judging unit may be configured to notify the outside of the vehicle of the incoming call to the mobile terminal only when the telephone number of the incoming call is judged to be a number registered in the telephone directory. When the telephone number determination unit determines that the telephone number of the incoming call is an unregistered number (strange number), the number of incoming calls to the unregistered number may be counted by an incoming call counting unit (not shown). If the number of calls of the unregistered telephone number is greater than or equal to a predetermined number, for example, the unregistered telephone number calls 3 times or more, the notification unit notifies the outside of the vehicle that there is a call incoming to the mobile terminal. Thus, it is possible to prevent the omission of an important incoming call.
Next, a call incoming notification method of an in-vehicle device according to an eighth embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the flowchart of fig. 17. Steps in the call incoming call notification method flowchart of the in-vehicle device in fig. 17 that are the same as those in the call incoming call notification method flowcharts of the in-vehicle devices of the first to sixth embodiments are denoted by the same reference numerals. Here, since the operations of step S101 to step S103 in fig. 17 are the same, the description thereof is omitted here.
Specifically, in the present embodiment, when the occupant checking unit 4 checks that there is no occupant in the vehicle (no in step S103), the telephone number determination unit 82 further determines whether or not the telephone number of the incoming call is the telephone number registered in the telephone directory, step S801). When the telephone number determination unit 82 determines that the telephone number of the incoming call is the telephone number registered in the telephone directory (yes in step S801), the notification unit 5 notifies the outside of the vehicle that there is an incoming call to the mobile terminal (step S104).
When the telephone number determination unit 82 determines that the telephone number of the incoming call is not the telephone number registered in the phonebook (no in step S801), the process ends. The number of calls to the telephone number not registered in the phonebook may be counted. When the incoming call is carried out for more than a certain number of times, the mobile terminal is informed of the incoming call outside the vehicle.
With the in-vehicle device 10H of the present embodiment, when the portable terminal is connected to the in-vehicle device, if there is an incoming call on the portable terminal and there is no passenger in the vehicle, the telephone number of the incoming call is further confirmed. Further, unnecessary notification of strange numbers, nuisance calls and the like can be prevented.

The in-vehicle device of the present embodiment may be any one of the in-vehicle devices 10A to 10F of the first to sixth embodiments.
Here, the occupant confirmation section of the in-vehicle apparatus may further confirm whether the occupant is within the certain distance range of the vehicle by acquiring an image within the certain distance range of the vehicle through an in-vehicle camera, for example, a 360-degree camera provided outside the vehicle. Specifically, an image inside the vehicle is first acquired by a camera inside the vehicle, and then an image outside the vehicle is acquired by a camera outside the vehicle. Whether the passenger is within a certain distance range of the vehicle is confirmed by analyzing and comparing the images inside and outside the vehicle. When a call comes in and no passenger is in the vehicle, whether the member is within a certain distance range of the vehicle is further confirmed. And when the passenger is confirmed to be within a certain distance range of the vehicle, informing the outside of the vehicle that the mobile terminal has the incoming call.
Next, a call incoming notification method of an in-vehicle device according to a ninth embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to a flowchart of fig. 19. Steps in the call incoming call notification method flowchart of the in-vehicle device in fig. 19 that are the same as those in the call incoming call notification method flowcharts of the in-vehicle devices of the first to sixth embodiments are denoted by the same reference numerals. Here, since the operations of step S101 to step S103 in fig. 19 are the same, the description thereof is omitted here.
Specifically, in the present embodiment, when the occupant checking unit checks that there is no occupant in the vehicle (no in step S103), it is further checked whether or not the occupant is within a certain distance range of the vehicle (step S901). When it is confirmed that the occupant is within a certain distance range of the vehicle (yes in step S901), the notification unit notifies the outside of the vehicle that there is an incoming call to the mobile terminal. When it is confirmed that the occupant is not within the certain distance range of the vehicle (no in step S901), the process ends.
In the present embodiment, the incoming call notification method of the in-vehicle apparatus of fig. 19 is a modified description made on the basis of the incoming call notification method of the in-vehicle apparatus of the first embodiment. In addition, the method for notifying an incoming call of the in-vehicle device according to the second to sixth embodiments may be modified.
In this embodiment, in combination with the eighth embodiment, when the occupant checking unit checks that there is no occupant in the vehicle and the occupant is within a certain distance range of the vehicle, the telephone number determination unit may further determine whether or not the telephone number of the incoming call is the telephone number registered in the telephone directory. And only when the telephone number of the incoming call is the telephone number registered in the telephone directory, the mobile terminal is informed of the incoming call outside the vehicle.
With the in-vehicle device according to the present embodiment, when the mobile terminal is connected to the in-vehicle device, if there is an incoming call from the mobile terminal and there is no passenger in the vehicle, it is further confirmed whether or not the passenger is within a certain distance range of the vehicle.
