Solution Overview

Problem

Different drivers of different vehicles have varying preferences and requirements for vehicle component configurations, leading to complicated and time-consuming adjustments when multiple users share a vehicle.

Innovation Solution

A method and device that utilize vehicle-mounted and electronic devices to store and retrieve driver-specific vehicle parameter settings using barcodes or NFC tags, enabling efficient configuration of vehicle components based on driver information.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If multiple drivers share the same vehicle and each needs to adjust vehicle parameters manually, then each driver can have personalized configuration, but the adjustment process becomes complicated and time-consuming

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepersonalized configurationVSAvoidadjustment time
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary action by automatically configuring vehicle parameters based on driver identification (via barcode scan or NFC tag) before the driver begins operation. The vehicle-mounted device retrieves pre-stored parameter sets corresponding to different drivers and applies them automatically, eliminating the need for manual adjustment each time a driver uses the vehicle.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system uses copying by storing duplicate sets of vehicle parameters in the vehicle-mounted device, with each set corresponding to a specific driver. When a driver is identified, the system copies the appropriate parameter set from storage and applies it to the vehicle components, enabling quick switching between different driver configurations without manual re-adjustment.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

2Adaptability or versatility

If multiple vehicle components need to be adjusted for different drivers, then personalized settings can be achieved, but the complexity of the configuration process increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecomponent configurationVSAvoidconfiguration process
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system merges multiple individual parameter adjustments into a single unified operation. Instead of requiring separate manual adjustments for each vehicle component (seats, mirrors, steering wheel, etc.), the system combines all these parameters into pre-configured sets that are applied simultaneously through automatic identification and retrieval, significantly simplifying the configuration process.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements self-service by enabling the vehicle to automatically identify the driver (through barcode or NFC tag), retrieve the corresponding parameter set, and configure the vehicle components without requiring manual intervention from the driver. The vehicle-mounted device autonomously performs the entire configuration process based on driver identification.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service
