Abstract

An electronic system integrated verification device includes a communication interface configured to communicate with a vehicle system, a power supply configured to supply power to the vehicle system, a display configured to display information on a state of the vehicle system, and a processor configured to receive output signals of a plurality of controllers included in the vehicle system through the communication interface, determine a state of each of the plurality of controllers based on the output signals of the plurality of controllers, and control the display to display a screen indicating the state of each of the plurality of controller.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . An electronic system integrated verification device, comprising:
a communication interface configured to communicate with a vehicle system; a power supply configured to supply power to the vehicle system; a display configured to display information regarding a state of the vehicle system; and a processor configured to:
receive one or more output signals from a plurality of controllers included in the vehicle system through the communication interface,
determine a state of each of the plurality of controllers based on the received one or more output signals from the plurality of controllers, and
control the display to display a screen indicating the state of each of the plurality of controller.

2 . The electronic system integrated verification device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to:
control, based on an operating state of the vehicle system being changed, the display to display the screen indicating the states of the plurality of controllers corresponding to the operating state of the vehicle system.

3 . The electronic system integrated verification device of claim 2 , wherein the processor is further configured to control the display to:
display, based on a starting-on (ON) of the vehicle system, a first screen indicating the state of each of the plurality of controllers, display, based on a vehicle including the vehicle system being driven, a second screen indicating the state of each of the plurality of controllers of the vehicle system, and display, based on a starting-off (OFF) of the vehicle system, a third screen indicating the state of each of the plurality of controllers.

4 . The electronic system integrated verification device of claim 3 , wherein the processor is further configured to control the display to:
display, based on the vehicle system being unlocked after the starting-off and locking of the vehicle system, a fourth screen indicating the state of each of the plurality of controllers.

5 . The electronic system integrated verification device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to:
determine whether the state of each of the plurality of controllers is a wake-up, a sleep ready, a sleep acknowledgement, or a sleep, and control the display to display a plurality of graphic elements corresponding to the states of the plurality of controllers.

6 . The electronic system integrated verification device of claim 5 , wherein the processor is further configured to:
generate the plurality of graphic elements each has a predetermined color corresponding to the wake-up, the sleep ready, the sleep acknowledgement, or the sleep.

7 . The electronic system integrated verification device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to:
control the power supply to supply, to the vehicle system, a predetermined test power corresponding to a predetermined environmental condition.

8 . The electronic system integrated verification device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to:
generate one or more input signals to be input to the plurality of controllers of the vehicle system based on a predetermined driving scenario, control the communication interface to transmit the generated one or more input signals to the vehicle system, and receive, from the plurality of controllers, the one or more output signals corresponding to the one or more input signals.

9 . A method of controlling an electronic system integrated verification device, the method comprising:
supplying, by a power supply, power to a vehicle system; receiving, by a processor, one or more output signals from a plurality of controllers included in the vehicle system through a communication interface; determining, by the processor, a state of each of the plurality of controllers based on the received one or more output signals from the plurality of controllers; and controlling, by the processor, a display to display a screen indicating the state of each of the plurality of controllers.

10 . The method of claim 9 , wherein controlling the display further comprises:
controlling, based on an operating state of the vehicle system being changed, the display to display the screen indicating the states of the plurality of controllers corresponding to the operating state of the vehicle system.

11 . The method of claim 10 , wherein controlling the display further comprises:
controlling, based on a starting-on (ON) of the vehicle system, the display to display a first screen indicating the state of each of the plurality of controllers, controlling, based on a vehicle including the vehicle system being driven, the display to display a second screen indicating the state of each of the plurality of controllers of the vehicle system, and controlling, based on a starting-off (OFF) of the vehicle system, the display to display a third screen indicating the state of each of the plurality of controllers.

12 . The method of claim 11 , wherein controlling the display further comprises:
controlling, based on the vehicle system being unlocked after the starting-off and locking of the vehicle system, the display to display a fourth screen indicating the state of each of the plurality of controllers.

13 . The method of claim 9 , wherein:
the state of each of the plurality of controllers is determined as a wake-up, a sleep ready, a sleep acknowledgement, or a sleep, and controlling the display further comprises generating a plurality of graphic elements corresponding to the states of the plurality of controllers.

14 . The method of claim 13 , wherein each of the plurality of graphic elements is displayed in a predetermined color corresponding to the wake-up, the sleep ready, the sleep acknowledgement, or the sleep.

15 . The method of claim 9 , wherein controlling the power supply further comprises:
supplying, to the vehicle system, a predetermined test power corresponding to a predetermined environmental condition.

16 . The method of claim 9 , wherein receiving the output signals further comprises:
generating one or more input signals to be input to the plurality of controllers of the vehicle system based on a predetermined driving scenario, controlling the communication interface to transmit the generated one or more input signals to the vehicle system, and receiving, from the plurality of controllers, the one or more output signals corresponding to the one or more input signals.
