1. A vehicle intelligent control system based on a dual independent control system, comprising a locomotive terminal and a cloud server both exchanging information with each other, wherein
the locomotive terminal comprises a first control system and a second control system both being operable independently and capable of exchanging data with each other in real time, and normal operations of basic operation modes of the first control system do not depend on those of the second control system, and when both the control systems operate normally, they can exchange data in real time;
the first control system monitors an operation state of a vehicle in real time and transmits at least part of operation state data to the second control system in real time, wherein the first control system includes a first electronic control unit and a sensing control module, the sensing control module is connected to various sensors of the vehicle and collects, summarizes and pre-processes the detection data obtained from each sensor and transmits it to the first electronic control unit, the first electronic control unit transmits the original data obtained from the sensors or the aggregated data obtained after processing the original data to the second electronic control unit via the CAN Bus, the application module controlled by the first electronic control unit involves the basic driving operation functions including a driving control, a battery management, an information collection and a human-machine interaction of the vehicle, the first electronic control unit exchanges data with the second electronic control unit in real time; and the first electronic control unit controls driving of the vehicle independent of data transmitted by the second electronic control unit;
the first control system controls an operation of the vehicle according to an internal preset instruction and a control instruction received from the second control system; and
the second control system receives data transmitted by the first control system and transmits at least part of the received data to the cloud server, wherein the second control system includes a second electronic control unit, the second electronic control unit transmits original data obtained from the sensors or aggregated data obtained after processing the original data from the first electronic control unit to the cloud server, and the second electronic control unit controls the networking and multimedia functions of the vehicle; and the second control system receives a control instruction from the cloud server and forwards the control instruction for controlling the operation of the vehicle to the first control system.
