Xiaomi’s new patent: let the car actively come to you

Xiaomi has applied for relevant patent technology several times after it came down to make a car, and on April 19, according to the patent of the State Intellectual Property Office, Xiaomi once again disclosed a patent related to "wearable device summoning vehicle", with the public number CN114368357A.

The patent abstract shows that the disclosure relates to a vehicle control method, vehicles, intelligent wearable devices and readable storage media.

In short, it is through the wearable device, such as a watch, you can let the car come to their side, eliminating the trouble of going to find it.

Although the patent does not specify what technology needs to be used, but in terms of expression and past experience, Xiaomi car to achieve this function, can not be separated from the self-driving technology, while it is expected to use LIDAR, high-precision maps, etc..
