Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current remote driving technologies lack effective security measures to ensure vehicle safety during remote driving operations, which is a critical concern for improving the reliability and trustworthiness of remote driving services.
Innovation Solution
A remote driving managing apparatus that registers user data, including driving styles and vehicle information, to match suitable users with vehicles for remote driving tasks, generating temporary key data for secure connection and control, utilizing a network of remote driving facilities and vehicles equipped with image capturing, radar, and LIDAR systems for real-time control and monitoring.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If remote driving is enabled without strict authentication, then ease of operation is improved, but vehicle security deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary authentication of the user and verification of vehicle compatibility before allowing remote driving operations. The managing apparatus checks whether the user is authorized to remotely drive the specific vehicle and generates temporary key data in advance, ensuring security measures are established before the remote driving session begins.
Solution Approach 2:
The managing apparatus acts as an intermediary between the user and the vehicle, controlling the remote driving session by managing authentication, generating temporary key data, and monitoring the session. This intermediary layer ensures that security protocols are enforced without interfering with the ease of operation for authorized users.
2Reliability
If comprehensive user verification is implemented, then vehicle security is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The managing apparatus automatically performs authentication and generates temporary key data without requiring complex manual verification processes. The system self-manages the security protocols, including checking user authorization, verifying vehicle compatibility, and controlling the remote driving session, thereby reducing the perceived complexity for users while maintaining high security standards.
Solution Approach 2:
The system uses temporary key data with specific time and session parameters to control access. By changing the authentication parameters dynamically (temporary keys rather than permanent credentials), the system enhances security without requiring permanently complex authentication mechanisms, as the complexity is managed through parameter management rather than structural complexity.
3Reliability
If temporary key data is generated for each session, then vehicle security is improved, but loss of time increases
Solution Approach 1:
The managing apparatus performs authentication and generates temporary key data in advance before the remote driving session begins. By completing the security verification preliminarily, the system ensures that when the user initiates remote driving, the authentication is already complete, minimizing the time loss during the actual driving session.
Solution Approach 2:
The temporary key data maintains continuous validity throughout the authorized remote driving session, allowing uninterrupted control operations. The authentication process establishes a continuous secure connection that persists for the duration of the session, eliminating the need for repeated authentication checks during normal operation and reducing overall time loss.
