Vehicle Control System Training Authentication for Advanced Function Access
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current automated driving vehicle control systems lack effective training methods for users to transition from basic to advanced control states, leading to restricted functionality despite user understanding, which limits the vehicle's control capabilities.
Innovation Solution
A vehicle control system comprising an information terminal apparatus and a server that provides training content and authentication processes, allowing users to progress from basic to advanced control states by completing training modules and authenticating their understanding, thereby canceling function restrictions.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If function restriction is maintained to ensure user safety and proper understanding, then reliability is improved, but ease of operation deteriorates because users cannot access advanced control capabilities
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary training actions before enabling advanced functions. Users must complete training contents and pass examinations in advance to demonstrate understanding, after which function restrictions are lifted. This ensures reliability is maintained while eventually providing ease of operation.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements continuous feedback through examinations and determination units that assess user understanding. Based on examination results, the server provides feedback by either maintaining or lifting function restrictions. This feedback mechanism ensures users have proper understanding before accessing advanced controls.
2Reliability
If training content is provided to improve user understanding, then reliability is improved, but loss of time increases due to the training process requirement
Solution Approach 1:
Training content is provided in advance before users need advanced control capabilities. By completing training beforehand and storing completion status on the server, users can quickly access advanced functions without repeated training, reducing overall time loss while ensuring understanding.
Solution Approach 2:
The system uses information terminal apparatuses (smartphones, tablets) to deliver training content and examination interfaces. This copying of the vehicle's training system to external devices allows users to complete training conveniently without requiring physical presence at the vehicle, reducing time loss.
3Ease of operation
If function restriction is lifted based on training completion, then ease of operation is improved, but reliability may deteriorate if user understanding is insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The determination unit and server implement continuous feedback verification through examinations. Function restrictions are only lifted when examination results confirm sufficient understanding. This feedback loop ensures reliability is maintained while enabling ease of operation for qualified users.
Solution Approach 2:
The system requires preliminary completion of training content and successful examination before lifting function restrictions. This preliminary verification ensures users have sufficient understanding before accessing advanced controls, preventing reliability deterioration while enabling ease of operation.

AI summary
A vehicle control system includes a vehicle, an information terminal apparatus that can provide, on a display unit, a plurality of contents which provide training on an operation method of the vehicle, and a server that can communicate with the vehicle and the information terminal apparatus. The information terminal apparatus includes a display control unit configured to cause the display unit to display a first content that provides training on an operation method including a method to start an operation of a specific function of the vehicle and a second content that provides, to a user of the vehicle who has been trained by the first content and is registered in the server, training on an operation method corresponding to a phenomenon that can occur while the specific function is provided.
