Uncrewed Vehicle Secure Data Physical Delivery
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current network-based transactions face vulnerabilities due to the lack of secure data delivery mechanisms, particularly in scenarios where uncrewed vehicles need to execute transactions across regional or jurisdictional boundaries, exposing sensitive information to potential data theft or malicious interference.
Innovation Solution
A method and system utilizing uncrewed vehicles to execute proposed transactions by loading transaction parameters, navigating to designated access points, and returning results, while ensuring secure data delivery through remote control and autonomous operation, incorporating navigation planning, weather data, and obstruction avoidance to mitigate risks.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If network-based transactions are used, then transaction accessibility is improved, but data security is worsened due to vulnerability to data theft and malicious attacks
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces uncrewed vehicles as intermediary carriers that physically transport data between locations. Instead of direct network transmission, data is loaded onto uncrewed vehicles which travel to designated access points for transaction execution, thereby mediating the data delivery process to enhance security while maintaining accessibility
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces traditional electronic network transmission with a physical mechanical system involving uncrewed vehicles. Data is physically carried by vehicles rather than transmitted through network cables or wireless signals, substituting the mechanical transport system for the electronic communication system to eliminate network-based security vulnerabilities
2Reliability
If uncrewed vehicles are used for data delivery, then data security is improved, but device complexity is worsened due to navigation planning and obstruction avoidance requirements
Solution Approach 1:
The uncrewed vehicles are designed with multi-functionality, serving both as data carriers and as autonomous navigation systems. The same vehicle platform handles data transport, path planning, obstruction avoidance, and delivery, consolidating multiple functions into a single system rather than requiring separate specialized components for each function
3Adaptability or versatility
If transactions are executed in isolated regions, then network dependency is reduced, but operational reliability is worsened due to lack of infrastructure
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by pre-planning navigation paths and identifying suitable access points before the uncrewed vehicle departs. The processing system evaluates potential routes and selects optimal destinations in advance, ensuring that when the vehicle arrives at the isolated location, the transaction infrastructure is already prepared and accessible
Data Source
AI summary
A processing system including at least one processor may load a proposed transaction to at least one uncrewed vehicle while the at least one uncrewed vehicle is situated in a first geographical region, instruct the at least one uncrewed vehicle to travel to at least one access point situated in a second geographical region to execute the proposed transaction via the at least one access point, wherein the first geographical region is different from the second geographical region, and receive a result of the proposed transaction having been completed from the at least one uncrewed vehicle via the at least one access point.
