Vehicle universal control device for interfacing sensors and controllers
The present invention provides a universal control device for controlling sensors and controllers incorporated in a separate room. The universal control device includes a control logic analyzer adapted to receive a control logic, decompose the control logic into at least one condition and at least one instruction, and identify at least one sensor for the condition(s) and at least one controller for the instruction(s) correspondingly; a control center adapted to retrieve data from the at least one identified sensor, determine whether the at least one condition is met or not based on the retrieved data, and send the at least one instruction to the at least one identified controller for execution when the at least one condition is met; and a uniform interface adapted to couple the sensors and the controllers to the universal control device, and implement communications between the universal control device and the sensors, and the controllers.
