Description
La présente invention concerne les systèmes de reconnaissance vocale et d’assistance vocale de véhicules automobiles, qui interagissent avec les utilisateurs à bord d’un véhicule automobile par l’intermédiaire de microphones et d’interfaces graphiques tels que des écrans tactiles ou des écrans avec des boutons de commande.The present invention relates to motor vehicle voice recognition and voice assistance systems, which interact with users on board a motor vehicle via microphones and graphical interfaces such as touch screens or screens with control buttons.
Arrière-plan technologiqueTechnology background
A l’heure où notre quotidien intègre de plus en plus la présence des nouvelles technologies, les conducteurs et passagers de véhicules automobiles apprécient de pouvoir effectuer plusieurs actions à bord de leur véhicule pendant la conduite. Par exemple, le conducteur peut écouter de la radio ou sa musique préférée, consulter la météo, accéder à son agenda professionnel ; les passagers peuvent en outre avoir envie de regarder un film, de jouer ou de lire un journal/magazine/livre, etc.At a time when our daily lives are increasingly integrating the presence of new technologies, motor vehicle drivers and passengers appreciate being able to perform several actions on board their vehicle while driving. For example, the driver can listen to the radio or his favorite music, check the weather forecast, access his professional diary; passengers may also want to watch a movie, play a game or read a newspaper/magazine/book, etc.
Néanmoins, la conduite d’un véhicule automobile impose au conducteur de garantir la sécurité pour ses passagers à bord de son véhicule et pour les autres usagers de la route. Il faut notamment s’assurer que le conducteur reste pleinement attentif pendant la conduite et que son niveau de vigilance demeure élevé même lorsqu’il effectue une action annexe à la conduite proprement dite.Nevertheless, driving a motor vehicle requires the driver to guarantee safety for his passengers on board his vehicle and for other road users. In particular, it must be ensured that the driver remains fully attentive while driving and that his level of vigilance remains high even when he performs an action ancillary to the actual driving.
Le brevet EP3470276 décrit un dispositif de commande de véhicule basé sur l’assistance vocale permettant à l’utilisateur, à l’aide d’un micro, de communiquer des ordres au véhicule et de recevoir une réponse à ses demandes par la voix du système d’assistance vocale et par un support visuel tel qu’un écran. La réponse reçue diffère selon le passager car l’unité de communication de l’assistance vocale fournit des messages audio de tonalités différentes en fonction du passager.The patent EP3470276 describes a vehicle control device based on voice assistance allowing the user, using a microphone, to communicate orders to the vehicle and to receive a response to its requests by the voice of the system. voice assistance and visual support such as a screen. The response received differs depending on the passenger because the voice assistance communication unit provides audio messages of different tones depending on the passenger.
Un objet de la présente invention est de proposer une solution pour améliorer la restitution et la complétude des réponses aux requêtes vocales tout évitant une surcharge cognitive du conducteur.An object of the present invention is to propose a solution for improving the restitution and completeness of responses to voice requests while avoiding cognitive overload of the driver.
A cet effet l’invention a pour objet un procédé d’assistance vocale pour un conducteur et au moins un passager embarqué à bord d’un véhicule, comportant des étapes de :
- Acquisition d’un signal sonore,
- Détermination si le signal sonore acquis provient du conducteur ou du passager,
- Traitement du signal sonore pour identifier une requête,
Caractérisé en ce qu’il comprend en outre une étape de :
- Affichage d’une réponse à ladite requête, l’affichage de la réponse étant différent si le signal sonore acquis provient du conducteur ou du passager.To this end, the subject of the invention is a voice assistance method for a driver and at least one passenger on board a vehicle, comprising the steps of:
- Acquisition of a sound signal,
- Determination if the acquired sound signal comes from the driver or the passenger,
- Processing of the sound signal to identify a request,
Characterized in that it further comprises a step of:
- Display of a response to said request, the display of the response being different if the acquired sound signal comes from the driver or the passenger.
Avec l’invention, les réponses sont plus précises et plus complètes grâce à l’affichage des informations. En distinguant qui du conducteur ou du passager a posé une question, l’invention permet une adaptation graphique de la réponse apportée. Ceci permet d’éviter de distraire le conducteur avec trop d’informations.With the invention, the answers are more precise and more complete thanks to the display of information. By distinguishing which of the driver or the passenger has asked a question, the invention allows a graphic adaptation of the response provided. This avoids distracting the driver with too much information.
Avantageusement, la différence d’affichage comprend une différence de nombres d’informations affichées, le nombre d’informations affichées en réponse au conducteur étant inférieure à celui affiché en réponse au passager.Advantageously, the difference in display comprises a difference in the number of items of information displayed, the number of items of information displayed in response to the driver being lower than that displayed in response to the passenger.
En réduisant le nombre d’informations affichées pour le conducteur, on réduit le risque de surcharge cognitive. Pour les passagers, on permet l’affichage d’une réponse plus exhaustive.By reducing the amount of information displayed to the driver, the risk of cognitive overload is reduced. For passengers, we allow the display of a more exhaustive answer.
Avantageusement, le procédé d’assistance vocale selon l’invention comprend en outre une étape de détection d’une phase de vie du véhicule et si le véhicule est à l’arrêt ou dans un mode de conduite autonome alors le nombre d’informations affichées pour le conducteur est identique à celui affiché pour le passager.Advantageously, the voice assistance method according to the invention further comprises a step of detecting a phase of life of the vehicle and if the vehicle is stationary or in an autonomous driving mode then the number of information displayed for the driver is identical to that displayed for the passenger.
La réponse peut être plus exhaustive pour le conducteur, lorsque celui-ci n’est pas occupé à conduire.The answer may be more exhaustive for the driver, when he is not busy driving.
Avantageusement, la réponse étant affichée sur un écran disposé entre un conducteur et un passager, la réponse comportant du texte et au moins une image, la différence d’affichage comprend une différence de pagination de sorte que le texte est affiché du côté de celui du conducteur ou du passager, dont la parole est acquise.Advantageously, the response being displayed on a screen placed between a driver and a passenger, the response comprising text and at least one image, the display difference comprises a difference in pagination so that the text is displayed on the side of that of the driver or passenger, whose speech is acquired.
L’invention permet de faciliter la lecture de la réponse à celui qui à poser la question.The invention makes it easier to read the answer to the person who asks the question.
L’invention concerne aussi un dispositif comprenant une mémoire associée à au moins un processeur configuré pour mettre en œuvre le procédé selon l’invention.The invention also relates to a device comprising a memory associated with at least one processor configured to implement the method according to the invention.

Le procédé comporte aussi une étape pour déterminer 602 si le signal sonore acquis provient du conducteur ou du passager.The method also includes a step for determining 602 whether the acquired sound signal comes from the driver or the passenger.
Selon un mode de réalisation, un processeur P reçoit les signaux électriques provenant de la conversion par les micros Mc et Mp du signal sonore résultant de la commande orale formulée par le locuteur en signal électrique. Ce processeur P analyse ces signaux électriques afin de déterminer lequel des deux micros Mc et Mp a capté le signal sonore correspondant à la voix de l’utilisateur avec le plus d’amplitude.According to one embodiment, a processor P receives the electrical signals originating from the conversion by the microphones Mc and Mp of the sound signal resulting from the oral command formulated by the speaker into an electrical signal. This processor P analyzes these electrical signals in order to determine which of the two microphones Mc and Mp has picked up the sound signal corresponding to the voice of the user with the greatest amplitude.
En variante, le système d’assistance vocale peut être équipé d’un seul micro (Mc). Dans ce cas, pour pouvoir identifier le locuteur lors d’une commande vocale, notamment si c’est le conducteur ou un passager qui s’exprime, le système d’assistance vocale est en interaction avec un dispositif d’identification du locuteur qui est capable de différencier chaque utilisateur du véhicule en fonction de sa fonction à bord du véhicule (conducteur ou passager), de son prénom (et éventuellement son nom de famille) et d’un empreinte vocale, c’est-à-dire les caractéristiques de sa voix (timbre, intensité, fréquence).Alternatively, the voice assistance system can be equipped with a single microphone (Mc). In this case, in order to be able to identify the speaker during a voice command, in particular if it is the driver or a passenger who is speaking, the voice assistance system interacts with a speaker identification device which is capable of differentiating each user of the vehicle according to their function on board the vehicle (driver or passenger), their first name (and possibly their family name) and a voice print, i.e. the characteristics of his voice (timbre, intensity, frequency).
Le procédé comporte ensuite une étape de traitement 603 de la parole appliqué au signal sonore acquis de façon à déterminer une requête.The method then includes a speech processing step 603 applied to the acquired sound signal so as to determine a request.
Selon la requête formulée par le locuteur identifié, notamment si la réponse à cette requête nécessite une recherche sur Internet, le processeur (P) peut se connecter à un serveur cloud (non représenté) pour puiser les informations intéressantes sur Internet pour déterminer une réponse.Depending on the request formulated by the identified speaker, in particular if the response to this request requires an Internet search, the processor (P) can connect to a cloud server (not shown) to draw the interesting information from the Internet to determine an answer.
Avantageusement, le processeur P produit une réponse vocale diffusée par le haut-parleur HP, cette réponse vocale est par exemple identique quel que soit le locuteur pour une requête donnée.Advantageously, the processor P produces a voice response broadcast by the loudspeaker HP, this voice response is for example identical regardless of the speaker for a given request.
Le procédé comporte ensuite une étape d’affichage 604 d’une réponse à ladite requête. L’affichage de la réponse est différent si le signal sonore acquis provient du conducteur ou du passager.The method then includes a step 604 of displaying a response to said request. The display of the response is different if the acoustic signal acquired comes from the driver or the passenger.
Selon un mode de réalisation de l’invention, la différence d’affichage comprend une différence de nombres d’informations affichées, le nombre d’informations affichées en réponse au conducteur étant inférieure à celui affiché en réponse au passager. Les figures 2 et 3 illustrent cet aspect de l’invention.According to one embodiment of the invention, the difference in display comprises a difference in the number of items of information displayed, the number of items of information displayed in response to the driver being lower than that displayed in response to the passenger. Figures 2 and 3 illustrate this aspect of the invention.

Avantageusement, le procédé d’assistance vocale selon l’invention comprend en outre une étape de détection d’une phase de vie du véhicule et si le véhicule est à l’arrêt ou dans un mode de conduite autonome alors le nombre d’informations affichées pour le conducteur est identique à celui affiché pour le passager.Advantageously, the voice assistance method according to the invention further comprises a step of detecting a phase of life of the vehicle and if the vehicle is stationary or in an autonomous driving mode then the number of information displayed for the driver is identical to that displayed for the passenger.
Ainsi, lorsque le véhicule se trouve à l’arrêt, c’est-à-dire lorsque le rapport de boîte de vitesse P ou N est engagé, le conducteur n’est plus dans une phase active de conduite, il est donc accepté qu’il décharge sa charge cognitive liée à la conduite et il peut ainsi effectuer d’autres actions, comme interagir de manière complexe avec l’assistant vocal du véhicule.Thus, when the vehicle is stationary, that is to say when the gearbox ratio P or N is engaged, the driver is no longer in an active driving phase, it is therefore accepted that he offloads his cognitive load related to driving and he can thus perform other actions, such as interacting in a complex way with the voice assistant of the vehicle.
De ce fait, lorsque le véhicule est à l’arrêt, conducteur et passager se voient répondre de la même manière par l’assistant vocal, avec les réponses visuelles détaillées.As a result, when the vehicle is stationary, driver and passenger are answered in the same way by the voice assistant, with detailed visual responses.
Selon un autre mode de réalisation de l’invention, la différence d’affichage comprend une différence de pagination de sorte que, pour une réponse comportant du texte et au moins une image, le texte est affiché du côté de celui du conducteur ou du passager, dont la parole est acquise. Les figures 4 et 5 illustrent cet aspect de l’invention.According to another embodiment of the invention, the display difference comprises a pagination difference so that, for a response comprising text and at least one image, the text is displayed on the driver's or passenger's side. , whose speech is acquired. Figures 4 and 5 illustrate this aspect of the invention.

La réponse graphique est constituée d’une fenêtre Rc reprenant l’essentiel du contenu de la réponse vocale que le processeur P a produite. Le haut-parleur (HP) diffuse cette réponse vocale au locuteur.The graphical response is made up of a window Rc resuming most of the content of the voice response that the processor P has produced. The loudspeaker (HP) broadcasts this voice response to the speaker.
En outre, une fenêtre DRc de taille plus importante dévoile des informations détaillées pour compléter le contenu de la fenêtre Rc. En particulier, la fenêtre DRc présente un texte Tc et une image Ic au moins. Le texte Tc est placé à gauche de la fenêtre DRc afin de faciliter la lecture pour le conducteur, et l’image Ic est placée du côté droit de la fenêtre DRc.In addition, a larger DRc window reveals detailed information to complement the contents of the Rc window. In particular, the window DRc presents a text Tc and an image Ic at least. The Tc text is placed on the left side of the DRc window to make it easier for the driver to read, and the Ic image is placed on the right side of the DRc window.
