VEHICLE CONTROL SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240294142 titled 'VEHICLE CONTROL SYSTEM

The vehicle control system described in this patent application consists of a meter-side control device and a backup device for measuring and storing the total distance traveled by a vehicle.

  • The meter-side control device is installed in the vehicle and tracks the total mileage.
  • The backup device can obtain a copy of the total distance measured by the meter-side control device.
  • Data communication between the two devices is secured using an authentication signal with a common key.
  • When registering a common key, the device with the larger total mileage value sends its data to the other device.

Potential Applications: - Fleet management systems - Vehicle tracking and monitoring solutions - Insurance telematics for mileage-based policies

Problems Solved: - Ensures accurate recording of total mileage for vehicles - Provides a secure method for data communication between devices - Facilitates backup and recovery of mileage data

Benefits: - Improved accuracy in tracking vehicle mileage - Enhanced data security through authentication signals - Efficient backup and recovery processes for mileage data

Commercial Applications: Title: "Advanced Vehicle Mileage Tracking System for Fleet Management" This technology can be utilized by fleet management companies to accurately monitor and track the mileage of their vehicles, leading to better maintenance scheduling and cost management.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the authentication signal with a common key enhance data security in this system? 2. What are the potential cost-saving benefits for fleet management companies using this technology?


Original Abstract Submitted

the vehicle control system of the present disclosure includes a meter-side control device that is installed in a vehicle and can measure the total distance traveled by the vehicle, and a backup device that can obtain a copy of the total distance measured by the meter-side control device. data communication between the meter-side control device and the backup device uses an authentication signal using a common key, and a new communication between the meter-side control device and the backup device when registering a common key, the larger value of the total mileage value stored in the meter side control device and the total mileage value stored in the backup device is sent to the meter side control device. total mileage.
