OPERATION MANAGEMENT SYSTEM, OPERATION MANAGEMENT APPARATUS, OPERATION MANAGEMENT METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18283135 titled 'OPERATION MANAGEMENT SYSTEM, OPERATION MANAGEMENT APPARATUS, OPERATION MANAGEMENT METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY STORAGE MEDIUM
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an operation management system that includes a server apparatus and an operation management apparatus. The system involves acquiring reservation information, including biometric information, from a user making a boarding reservation for a vehicle, as well as acquiring boarding information, including biometric information generated by a camera on the vehicle and boarding place information. An authentication unit then determines if there is a match of biometric information and boarding point between the reservation and boarding information.
- Reservation acceptance unit acquires reservation information, including biometric data, from users making boarding reservations.
- Boarding information acquisition unit collects boarding information, including biometric data from a camera on the vehicle, and boarding place information.
- Authentication unit verifies the match of biometric information and boarding point between reservation and boarding information.
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in transportation systems, such as buses or trains, to enhance security and streamline boarding processes.
Problems Solved
This technology helps to verify the identity of passengers and ensure they are boarding at the correct location, reducing the risk of unauthorized access or boarding errors.
Benefits
The system improves security, efficiency, and accuracy in boarding procedures, providing a seamless experience for both passengers and transportation operators.
Potential Commercial Applications
This technology could be utilized by public transportation companies, airlines, or other transportation services to improve passenger boarding processes and enhance overall security measures.
Possible Prior Art
One potential prior art could be biometric authentication systems used in access control or security applications, but the specific combination of biometric data with boarding information in a transportation context may be novel.
Unanswered Questions
How does the system handle cases where there is a mismatch between the biometric information and the boarding point?
The abstract does not provide details on how the system deals with situations where there is a discrepancy between the biometric data and the boarding point. It would be important to understand the protocol for handling such instances to ensure a smooth boarding process.
What measures are in place to protect the privacy and security of the biometric data collected?
The abstract mentions the acquisition of biometric information, but it does not elaborate on the security measures in place to protect this sensitive data. Understanding the encryption, storage, and access control mechanisms for biometric data would be crucial in evaluating the overall security of the system.
Original Abstract Submitted
An operation management system () includes a server apparatus () and an operation management apparatus (). The operation management system () includes: a reservation acceptance unit () acquiring reservation information including biometric information of a user making a boarding reservation for a vehicle, and a boarding point; a boarding information acquisition unit () acquiring boarding information including biometric information of the user generated by a camera () equipped on the vehicle and boarding place information indicating the boarding point; and an authentication unit () determining whether there is a match of biometric information and a boarding point that are included in each piece of the reservation information and the boarding information.
