Solution Overview

Problem

Existing systems fail to effectively prevent unqualified individuals from inspecting vehicles, leading to potential security and authentication issues.

Innovation Solution

A processing system that includes a detection unit to identify a moving body's presence, an input receiving unit for user authentication requests, a biological information acquisition unit for acquiring relevant data, an authentication unit for verifying inspector credentials, and an output unit for managing access based on successful authentication.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If simple image capture authentication is used, then authentication process is simple, but security against unqualified persons is insufficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveauthentication process simplicityVSAvoidauthentication security
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary verification by detecting whether the moving body is at the specified position before executing the authentication process. This preliminary action ensures that authentication only proceeds when proper conditions are met, preventing unqualified persons from initiating authentication while maintaining a simple user interface.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system introduces an intermediary detection mechanism that verifies the presence and position of the moving body between the user's authentication request and the actual authentication process. This intermediary layer adds security without complicating the user experience, as the detection occurs automatically in the background.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Reliability

If authentication is always executed, then security is maintained, but processing time increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveauthentication securityVSAvoidauthentication processing time
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

Instead of continuously executing authentication, the system performs authentication periodically or conditionally based on whether the moving body is detected at the specified position. This periodic approach maintains security by executing authentication when needed while reducing unnecessary processing time when the moving body is absent or not properly positioned.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #19Periodic action

Solution Approach 2:

The detection of the moving body's position serves as a preliminary condition that must be satisfied before authentication is executed. This preliminary check prevents wasted processing time by ensuring authentication only occurs when the proper context is established, thereby maintaining security while optimizing processing efficiency.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Measurement precision

If biological information acquisition is performed continuously, then authentication accuracy is improved, but energy consumption increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveauthentication accuracyVSAvoidenergy consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The biological information acquisition is performed periodically or conditionally based on detection results rather than continuously. The system acquires biological information only when the moving body is detected at the specified position, thereby maintaining high authentication accuracy when needed while significantly reducing energy consumption during periods when authentication is not required.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #19Periodic action

Solution Approach 2:

The system dynamically adjusts the biological information acquisition process based on real-time detection conditions. When the moving body is present and properly positioned, the system actively acquires biological information with high precision. When conditions are not met, the system suspends acquisition to conserve energy, creating a dynamic balance between accuracy and energy usage.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

AI summary

Provided is a processing system including a detection unit that detects that a moving body is at a specified position; an input receiving unit that receives a user input that requests to start authentication; a biological information acquisition unit that executes an acquisition process of acquiring biological information, when the user input is received in a state where the moving body is detected to be at the specified position; an authentication unit that executes an inspector authentication process on the basis of the biological information acquired in the acquisition process; and an output unit that executes a predetermined output process, when an authentication result is an authentication success.
