INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240221485 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD
Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes a method for an information processing apparatus to remind a user to perform a predetermined operation for a vehicle when the user terminal is not in the vicinity of the vehicle.
- Acquiring positional information for the vehicle and user terminal
- Determining if the user terminal is near the vehicle
- Notifying the user terminal if the vehicle is in an abnormal state
- Reminding the user terminal to perform the predetermined operation if the vehicle is not in an abnormal state
Key Features and Innovation:
- Utilizes positional information for the vehicle and user terminal
- Determines the proximity of the user terminal to the vehicle
- Distinguishes between abnormal and normal states of the vehicle
- Provides timely reminders to the user terminal based on the vehicle's status
Potential Applications: This technology can be applied in the automotive industry for vehicle maintenance reminders and notifications to users.
Problems Solved: Addresses the issue of users forgetting to perform necessary operations for their vehicles.
Benefits:
- Improves vehicle maintenance and user safety
- Enhances user experience by providing timely reminders
- Prevents potential issues due to neglecting important vehicle operations
Commercial Applications: The technology can be integrated into vehicle management systems, mobile applications, and smart devices to offer users convenient reminders and notifications for vehicle maintenance tasks.
Questions about the Technology: 1. How does the system determine the abnormal state of the vehicle? 2. What measures are in place to ensure the accuracy of positional information for the vehicle and user terminal?
Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on advancements in vehicle tracking technologies and user interface design to enhance the efficiency and accuracy of the reminder system.
Original Abstract Submitted
an information processing method by an information processing apparatus includes acquiring, upon detecting that a predetermined operation for a vehicle has been forgotten, positional information for the vehicle and positional information for a user terminal, acquiring, upon determining that a position of the user terminal is not in a vicinity of a position of the vehicle, vehicle information for the vehicle, and not notifying, when the vehicle is determined from the vehicle information to be in an abnormal state, the user terminal that the predetermined operation has been forgotten, or notifying, when the vehicle is determined from the vehicle information to be not in an abnormal state, the user terminal that the predetermined operation has been forgotten.
