Vehicle Access Authorization System for Privacy Data Management
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In vehicles, service applications currently face a burden in confirming access agreements for privacy information of multiple users, leading to decreased service quality due to the time-consuming nature of universal access agreement confirmation.
Innovation Solution
An access authorization system that manages authentication data for each vehicle seat, determining which users need to agree to access privacy information based on their authentication methods, allowing for targeted and efficient agreement confirmation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If access agreement confirmation is performed for all users in a vehicle, then privacy information access is secured, but service quality deteriorates due to time-consuming universal confirmation
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the user group into multiple individuals seated in different seats, and further segments the authentication management by creating separate authentication result records for each user. This allows the system to process and manage authentication data individually for each user rather than treating all users as a single group, enabling selective agreement confirmation based on each user's authentication status.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies local quality by managing authentication results specifically for each seat position in the vehicle. The management section maintains authentication result data that is locally associated with each seat, allowing the determination section to identify and request agreement from only those specific users who are authenticated and seated in the vehicle, rather than requiring universal confirmation from all possible users.
2Reliability
If universal access agreement confirmation is required for all users, then complete privacy authorization is obtained, but the confirmation process becomes time-consuming and burdensome
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts only the necessary users from the universal user set by using authentication results to identify which users are actually present and authenticated in the vehicle. The determination section extracts the specific subset of users who require agreement confirmation based on their authentication status, removing the need to seek agreement from all users regardless of their presence or authentication state.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent performs preliminary authentication of users before the access agreement confirmation process. The management section stores authentication results obtained through authentication units, and this pre-performed authentication allows the system to identify which users need to provide agreement in advance, streamlining the subsequent agreement confirmation process by eliminating users who don't require confirmation.
3Ease of operation
If authentication data is managed for each seat, then targeted agreement confirmation is enabled, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The management section serves multiple functions: it stores authentication results, manages the correspondence between users and seats, and provides data to the determination section for identifying users requiring agreement. This multi-functional design consolidates what could be separate complex systems into a single management component, reducing overall system complexity while maintaining the ability to manage authentication data for each seat.

AI summary
An access authorization system authorizes access to privacy information based on an authentication result of a user of a vehicle. Authentication of the user is performed based on the authentication result obtained by a different authentication method. The access authorization system includes a management section configured to manage, for each seat of the vehicle, management data indicating which user has been authenticated by which authentication method, and a determination section configured to determine, for access to the privacy information of the user, which user associated with each of the seats is required to make agreement based on the management data.
