Start Button Fingerprint Authentication for Vehicle Service Access
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional vehicle authentication methods, such as using user IDs and passwords for electronic commerce and financial services within vehicles, are inconvenient and require manual inputs.
Innovation Solution
Integration of a fingerprint recognition module with a fingerprint sensor in vehicles to perform service interworking authentication and engine starting authentication, allowing for convenient user authentication through fingerprint recognition, with specific processing modes activated or deactivated based on the vehicle's power supply modes.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If user ID and password input method is used for authentication, then authentication security can be maintained, but user convenience and operation ease deteriorate due to manual input requirements
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces the mechanical input method (manual typing of user ID and password) with a biometric recognition system (fingerprint sensor). The fingerprint sensor automatically captures and verifies user identity through fingerprint matching, eliminating the need for manual keyboard input while maintaining security through biometric authentication.
Solution Approach 2:
The system enables self-service authentication where the user's own fingerprint serves as the authentication credential. The fingerprint sensor automatically detects and verifies the user's identity without requiring external assistance or manual input, making the authentication process both convenient and secure.
2Ease of operation
If fingerprint recognition module is added for authentication, then user convenience is improved, but device complexity increases due to additional hardware and software integration
Solution Approach 1:
The fingerprint recognition module is integrated into the existing vehicle authentication system, serving multiple functions: user authentication for vehicle access, authentication for electronic commerce transactions, and authentication for financial services. This multi-functional integration reduces the need for separate authentication systems, thereby limiting the increase in overall device complexity.
3Adaptability or versatility
If service interworking authentication is processed preferentially when both service authentication and engine starting authentication are requested simultaneously, then service functionality is improved, but engine starting response time may be delayed
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs service interworking authentication in advance when both service authentication and engine starting authentication are requested simultaneously. By completing the service authentication process first, the system ensures that electronic commerce and financial service functionalities are properly authenticated before proceeding to engine starting, thereby improving overall service adaptability while managing response time through sequential processing.
