Vehicle Content Startup Control via Matching Core Conditions
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The existing systems for terminal devices in vehicles require cumbersome and time-consuming content startup operations, as users need to manually initiate each function, leading to inefficiency in accessing various types of information.
Innovation Solution
A content startup control device and method that automatically starts content based on pre-defined core conditions derived from vehicle information, such as speed, time, and location, using a terminal device with a CPU, input unit, display unit, and communication unit, which segmentalizes vehicle information and matches it with stored core conditions to initiate preferred content automatically.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If manual content startup operations are required for each function, then users can precisely control content selection, but operability becomes cumbersome and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by storing usage information and vehicle information in advance, creating a database of user preferences and driving conditions. This allows the content recommendation unit to automatically suggest appropriate content without requiring manual startup operations, thereby improving ease of operation while reducing time loss.
Solution Approach 2:
The terminal device serves itself by automatically recommending and managing content based on stored usage information and current vehicle conditions. The system autonomously determines which content to provide without requiring continuous user intervention, enhancing both ease of operation and time efficiency.
2Extent of automation
If automatic content startup based on vehicle information is implemented, then operability is enhanced and manual intervention is reduced, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The terminal device integrates multiple functions into a single system: content reproduction, usage information storage, vehicle information acquisition, and content recommendation. This multi-functionality allows automatic content startup without requiring separate complex systems, as the existing terminal device structure is extended to perform additional automated tasks.
Solution Approach 2:
The content recommendation unit acts as an intermediary between vehicle information and content selection. Rather than directly complexly linking all vehicle parameters to content startup decisions, the recommendation unit mediates by processing usage information and vehicle conditions to generate simplified content suggestions, thereby managing system complexity.

AI summary
A content startup control device includes: a reception unit (12) that receives an instruction from a user to select a content; a vehicle information acquisition unit (18) that acquires information from a vehicle and/or information on traveling as vehicle information; a startup recording unit that stores the vehicle information, which is acquired by the vehicle information acquisition unit when the content is selected or started up in response to the instruction received by the reception unit, as a startup record of the content; a condition creation unit that creates a startup condition under which the content is to be started up based on the startup record; and a content startup control unit that, if the vehicle information acquired from the vehicle information acquisition unit corresponds to the startup condition, proposes startup of a content related to the startup condition or starts up the content related to the startup condition.
