Solution Overview

Problem

Existing emergency informing apparatuses mounted on vehicles cannot be used for general personal communication or for transmitting and storing vehicle situation data for later analysis, despite having a wireless telephone communication circuit.

Innovation Solution

A method and system for receiving, storing, and transceiving vehicle situation data, including motor vehicle identification data, geographical position data, and time-stamping, using a transceiver, database, and display for storing and displaying the data.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If a wireless telephone communication circuit is included in the emergency informing apparatus, then emergency condition data can be transmitted, but the device cannot be used for general personal communication or for transmitting and storing vehicle situation data

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecommunication functionalityVSAvoiddevice functionality limitation
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent transforms a specialized emergency informing apparatus into a multi-functional device by adding capabilities for general personal communication, transmitting vehicle situation data, and storing data for later analysis. The transceiver system handles multiple communication protocols and data types, enabling the same hardware platform to serve both emergency notification and general communication purposes.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Loss of information

If vehicle situation data is transmitted and stored for later analysis, then data availability for analysis is improved, but data security and unauthorized use prevention become concerns

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata availabilityVSAvoidunauthorized data access
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements authentication and authorization mechanisms that provide feedback control for data access. The system verifies user credentials, checks access permissions, and controls data transmission based on authorized relationships. This feedback mechanism ensures that only authenticated users can access or transmit vehicle situation data, preventing unauthorized use while maintaining data availability for legitimate analysis purposes.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback
