Electronic Device Driving Control Rights Transfer
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The increasing use of electronic devices in vehicles poses a safety risk as drivers often need to handle them while driving, leading to a higher incidence of accidents, and existing solutions do not adequately ensure minimal driver interaction during driving.
Innovation Solution
An electronic device with a communication module and processor that can authorize another device to handle specific functions associated with driving, transferring control rights based on the device's state, such as through authentication and connection establishment, to minimize driver interaction.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If the driver handles the electronic device while driving, then the driver can access and control the device functions, but the accident risk increases due to distracted driving
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a second electronic device as an intermediary that receives control requests from the driver's device and executes them remotely. The first electronic device acts as a mediator between the driver and the second device, enabling the driver to control the second device without directly handling it during driving operations
2Reliability
If the electronic device transfers control rights to another device during driving, then driver interaction is minimized improving safety, but the device complexity increases due to authentication and state monitoring requirements
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic control right transfer where the first electronic device monitors its own operational state and automatically transfers control rights to the second device when driving conditions are detected. The system dynamically adjusts control authority based on real-time state assessment, enabling adaptive safety measures without requiring complex manual intervention
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary authentication and establishes control transfer protocols before driving operations begin. By pre-configuring trust relationships and control mechanisms, the system reduces the complexity of real-time decision-making during actual driving scenarios

AI summary
An electronic device according to various embodiments may include: a communication module comprising communication circuitry; and a processor configured to receive, from an external electronic device functionally connected with the electronic device, a request associated with transferring a portion of one or more rights capable of controlling the electronic device, using the communication module; transfer the portion of the one or more rights to the external electronic device, based at least on the request if the electronic device is performing a function associated with driving; and restrict transferring the portion of the one or more rights to the external electronic device, based at least on the request if the electronic device is performing a function not associated with the driving.
