USER-BASED VEHICLE DETERMINATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18582892 titled 'USER-BASED VEHICLE DETERMINATION

Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes a system for generating vehicle profiles based on the proximity of a user to a vehicle. By scanning multiple vehicles, associating them with location tags, and identifying the user's location, the system can provide the user with information about a nearby vehicle.

  • The system scans multiple vehicles at different locations.
  • Each vehicle is associated with a location tag.
  • The user's location is determined based on a signal.
  • If the user is within a certain distance of a vehicle, they receive information about that vehicle.
  • A vehicle profile is generated based on the vehicle's identification tag and provided to the user.

Key Features and Innovation:

  • Scanning and identifying multiple vehicles and their locations.
  • Determining user location and proximity to vehicles.
  • Providing vehicle information based on user proximity.
  • Generating vehicle profiles for user convenience.

Potential Applications: This technology could be used in car rental services, parking assistance systems, and vehicle tracking applications.

Problems Solved: The system helps users easily access information about nearby vehicles, improving convenience and efficiency.

Benefits:

  • Enhanced user experience in locating and accessing vehicles.
  • Streamlined vehicle identification and information retrieval process.
  • Improved efficiency in vehicle management and tracking.

Commercial Applications: Vehicle rental companies, parking facilities, and transportation services could benefit from this technology to enhance user experience and streamline operations.

Prior Art: Prior art related to this technology may include vehicle tracking systems, location-based services, and proximity detection technologies.

Frequently Updated Research: Research on user behavior and preferences in accessing vehicle information could provide insights for further development of this technology.

Questions about Vehicle Profile Generation: 1. How does the system determine the user's location in relation to the vehicles? 2. What security measures are in place to protect user data in this system?


Original Abstract Submitted

Computer-implemented techniques and systems for generating vehicle profiles may include scanning a plurality of vehicles, each vehicle located at a respective vehicle location, identifying respective vehicle locations for each of the plurality of vehicles, based on scanning the plurality of vehicles, associating a vehicle identification tag for each vehicle with its respective vehicle location, interpreting a signal to determine a user location, determining that the user location is within a threshold distance from a first vehicle location of a first vehicle from the plurality of vehicles, providing a first vehicle identification tag corresponding to the first vehicle based on determining that the user location is within the threshold distance, generating a first vehicle profile based on the first vehicle identification tag, and providing the first vehicle profile to a user device.
