CONTROL DEVICE FOR VEHICLE, CONTROL METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240326735 titled 'CONTROL DEVICE FOR VEHICLE, CONTROL METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM
Simplified Explanation:
The patent application describes a control device for a vehicle that can determine if a user has the authority to use specific vehicle control functions.
- The device receives authority information from a server to check if the user can use certain vehicle control functions.
- It updates the authority information stored in the vehicle based on the received data.
- The device then allows the user to use the specific vehicle control function if they have the authority.
Key Features and Innovation:
- Reception unit receives authority information from a server.
- Update unit updates authority information stored in the vehicle.
- Vehicle control unit allows user to use specific vehicle control functions based on authority information.
Potential Applications:
This technology can be used in various vehicles such as cars, trucks, and buses to control access to specific vehicle functions based on user authority.
Problems Solved:
This technology addresses the issue of unauthorized users accessing certain vehicle control functions, enhancing security and control over vehicle operations.
Benefits:
- Improved security by restricting access to vehicle functions.
- Enhanced control over vehicle operations.
- Customizable access levels for different users.
Commercial Applications:
Commercial applications include fleet management systems, rental car companies, and transportation services that require strict control over vehicle access and operations.
Questions about Vehicle Control Device: 1. How does the device determine user authority for specific vehicle control functions? 2. What happens if the authority information is not updated in the storage device of the vehicle?
Frequently Updated Research:
Research on vehicle security systems, user authentication methods, and remote access control technologies may be relevant to this technology.
Original Abstract Submitted
a control device for a vehicle includes a reception unit configured to receive, from a server, first authority information indicating whether a user of the vehicle has an authority to use a specific vehicle control function, an update unit configured to update, based on the first authority information, second authority information that indicates whether the user has the authority to use the specific vehicle control function and is stored in a storage device of the vehicle, and a vehicle control unit configured to perform the vehicle control function based at least in part on the second authority information indicating that the user has the authority to use the specific vehicle control function.
