Solution Overview

Problem

The challenge in the delivery industry is ensuring traffic safety and managing insurance for two-wheeled vehicles, where multiple drivers use the same vehicles, making it difficult to determine who is driving and collect driving habits, leading to issues in setting insurance rates due to the lack of driver identification and driving information.

Innovation Solution

An apparatus and method using biometric recognition to identify drivers and generate driving information for two-wheeled vehicles, controlling the vehicle's start based on biometric data, transmitting this information to a server, and providing warnings for unsafe driving, allowing for accurate insurance management.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If biometric recognition is implemented to identify drivers, then driver identification accuracy is improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedriver identification accuracyVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent uses biometric sensors (fingerprint, face, iris, or voice recognition) as intermediary devices to accurately identify drivers without requiring manual registration or complex documentation. These sensors serve as mediators between the driver and the vehicle's control system, enabling automatic identification and authentication.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces traditional mechanical or manual identification methods (such as ID cards, passwords, or physical keys) with biometric recognition technology. This substitution uses biological characteristics (fingerprints, facial features, iris patterns, or voice patterns) instead of physical objects or memorized information, thereby improving identification accuracy while simplifying the user interaction.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

2Reliability

If driver-specific start control is implemented, then driving safety is improved, but ease of operation deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedriving safetyVSAvoidvehicle startup convenience
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs self-service by automatically detecting the driver's presence and identity through biometric sensors, then automatically controlling the vehicle's startup without requiring manual intervention. The vehicle itself services the authentication process by comparing captured biometric data against stored driver profiles, eliminating the need for drivers to manually input credentials or follow complex startup procedures.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements preliminary action by pre-registering driver biometric information and vehicle control parameters before the actual driving operation. The system stores biometric templates and associated driving profiles in advance, so that when a driver approaches the vehicle, the authentication and configuration processes occur automatically and instantaneously, maintaining both safety and convenience.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Loss of information

If driving information is collected and transmitted to server, then insurance management is improved, but loss of time increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedriving information completenessVSAvoiddata transmission time
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements continuous collection and transmission of driving information throughout the driving process. Sensors continuously monitor driving behavior, vehicle status, and route information, transmitting data to the server in real-time or near-real-time intervals. This continuous action ensures complete information collection without requiring separate data gathering phases, thereby minimizing time loss while maintaining information completeness.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #20Continuity of useful action

Solution Approach 2:

The system establishes a feedback loop where driving information is collected by sensors, transmitted to the server, and the server processes this information to generate insurance assessments and safety evaluations. The feedback mechanism allows the system to continuously refine its data collection and transmission processes, optimizing the balance between information completeness and time efficiency based on actual operational needs.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback
