FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present disclosure relates to vehicle technology, and more particularly to a remote vehicle control system, and a remote vehicle control method.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Nowadays, more and more people prefer driving to and from work regularly. Generally, a vehicle is equipped with many devices, e.g., an air conditioner, front windshields, or the like. The air conditioner is for controlling the temperature and humidity of the air in the interior thereof. The air conditioner generates warm air from a heater in the winter, thus keeping the interior of the vehicle warm, and generates cool air from an evaporator in the summer, thus keeping the interior of the vehicle cool. The front windshields are for reducing air flow resistance. However, the traditional vehicles generally rely on manual operation to control the equipped devices, e.g., the air conditioner in the vehicle is not turned on in advance. Especially in the hot summer or the cold winter, if the vehicle exposes to the surrounding environment for a long time, the interior temperature will be too high or too low. When the driver comes into the vehicle, he has to be in the high or low temperature environment for a long time until the air conditioner is controlled to meet the comfortable requirement, thereby making the driver feel inconvenient. In addition, if the outside temperature is too low in the winter, there may be ice or frost on the front windshields or rearview mirrors etc., the driver need take a long time to remove the ice or frost. These problems cause a very poor user experience.

With the development of the science and technology, people have higher and higher pursuits for automation and intelligent control of the vehicle. The current remote vehicle control system uses an internet technology only to achieve a simple control, and the automatic level is not high. Thereby, how to increase the automatic level for the vehicle control system is an urgent problem to be solved.
