Electronic Device for Vehicle Calls Using Caller Card Tagging
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing technologies for calling and paying for vehicles are complex and inaccessible to digitally disadvantaged individuals, leading to high maintenance costs and low accessibility for transportation-disadvantaged groups.
Innovation Solution
An electronic device and method that simplifies the process of identifying callers, registering card information, and facilitating payments by using card tagging and guidance through a processor, reducing the need for separate membership or identity verification processes.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If traditional vehicle calling and payment systems are used, then payment functionality is provided, but the system complexity increases and accessibility for digitally disadvantaged individuals deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system enables automatic card tagging and payment processing without requiring users to manually input information or navigate complex interfaces. The electronic device automatically identifies the card, retrieves stored information, and completes payment, allowing digitally disadvantaged individuals to use the service intuitively without digital literacy
Solution Approach 2:
Card information is pre-stored in the electronic device before the actual payment transaction. The system performs preliminary card tagging and information storage during initial setup or previous transactions, so that during actual payment, only simple card presentation is needed, eliminating the need for users to input data at the point of payment
2Reliability
If separate membership registration and identity verification processes are implemented, then payment security is improved, but the number of操作步骤 increases and accessibility deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system merges membership registration, identity verification, and payment processing into a single integrated workflow. The card information serves multiple functions simultaneously: it identifies the user, verifies their identity, and processes payment, eliminating the need for separate sequential steps while maintaining security through unified authentication
3Measurement precision
If manual card information entry and verification steps are required, then payment accuracy is improved, but the ease of operation deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system replaces manual card information entry with automatic card tagging technology. The electronic device automatically reads and captures card information through RFID or similar wireless communication, eliminating the need for users to manually type or input data, thereby ensuring accuracy through automated data capture while dramatically improving ease of operation
Data Source
AI summary
An electronic device includes a memory that stores at least one instruction and includes a processor that executes the at least one instruction. The processor executes the at least one instruction to obtain at least one of information about a caller calling a vehicle including the electronic device to a departure point, information about the departure point provided by the caller, or any combination thereof. The processor also executes the at least one instruction to register card information of a card corresponding to the information about the caller when the card information is not registered corresponding to the information about the caller. The card information is obtained based on a first card tagging of the caller who boards the vehicle at the departure point.
