INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240135418 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD

Simplified Explanation

The information processing apparatus calculates a fee for applying a second coating film with an easily removable layer to a first vehicle with a first coating film already applied.

  • The controller calculates a lower fee for applying the second coating film to a leased vehicle compared to a non-leased vehicle by subtracting a subtraction value from the fee.
    • Potential Applications of this Technology:

- Automotive industry for leased vehicles - Vehicle customization services

    • Problems Solved by this Technology:

- Determining fees for applying additional coating films - Providing cost-effective solutions for leased vehicles

    • Benefits of this Technology:

- Cost savings for leased vehicle owners - Customization options for vehicle owners

    • Potential Commercial Applications of this Technology:

- Auto body shops - Vehicle leasing companies

    • Possible Prior Art:

- Methods for calculating fees for vehicle coatings - Technologies for easily removable coating layers

      1. Unanswered Questions:
        1. How does the information processing apparatus determine the specific subtraction value for calculating the fee difference between leased and non-leased vehicles?

The abstract does not provide details on how the subtraction value is determined for accurately calculating the fee difference.

        1. Are there any specific regulations or standards in the automotive industry that need to be considered when calculating fees for applying additional coating films to vehicles?

The abstract does not mention any specific regulations or standards that may impact the fee calculation process in the automotive industry.


Original Abstract Submitted

an information processing apparatus calculates a fee for applying a second coating film including an easily removable layer to a first vehicle having a first coating film applied thereon. the information processing apparatus disclosed herein has a controller that calculates a first fee defined as a fee for applying the second coating film to the first vehicle that is for lease lower than a second fee defined as a fee for applying the second coating film to the first vehicle that is not for lease. in other words, the controller calculates the first fee by subtracting a first subtraction value from the second fee.
