Vehicle Inspection Authorization System for Parking Information Management
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Potential vehicle purchasers face inconvenience in inspecting desired vehicle models due to the limited availability of vehicles for inspection, as most vehicles are not available for viewing outside dealerships, making it difficult to find suitable vehicles for inspection.
Innovation Solution
A vehicle inspection authorization information management system that uses a processor and nonvolatile memory to create and transmit parking information of authorized vehicles, including their current or future parking positions, to user terminals, allowing users to find and inspect available vehicles.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Quantity of substance
If vehicles are exhibited in dealerships for inspection, then users can inspect vehicles, but the number of vehicles available for inspection is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The system segments the vehicle inspection availability by distinguishing between dealership vehicles and privately owned vehicles, allowing both sources to contribute to the inspection pool. This segmentation enables a broader quantity of vehicles to be available while maintaining the convenience of online booking and navigation to inspection locations.
Solution Approach 2:
The information processing device acts as an intermediary between vehicle owners and potential buyers. It collects parking information from owners, manages authorization, and provides users with inspection details including location and time, thereby increasing vehicle availability while maintaining operational convenience through automated information handling.
2Quantity of substance
If privately owned vehicles are made available for inspection, then the number of vehicles increases, but it becomes difficult to identify and convey available vehicles to users
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements feedback mechanisms where vehicle owners provide parking information (location, time) about their vehicles, and this information is processed and conveyed back to potential buyers through the information processing device. This feedback loop ensures that availability information is continuously updated and communicated, preventing information loss while increasing vehicle availability.
Solution Approach 2:
The system enables vehicle owners to self-report their vehicle availability and parking details without requiring active promotion or manual listing. The information processing device automatically collects and disseminates this self-provided information, increasing vehicle availability while maintaining accurate information conveyance through automated processing.
3Quantity of substance
If the system automatically detects and creates parking information, then the number of recorded vehicles increases, but the system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system uses automatic detection mechanisms that leverage existing data sources (such as navigation device destination information) to self-generate parking information without requiring manual input or complex processing logic. This self-service approach increases the number of recorded vehicles while keeping system complexity manageable by using simple, automated data collection methods.

AI summary
A vehicle inspection authorization information management system comprising a parking information creation unit and an authorized vehicle information creation unit. The parking information creation unit is configured to create parking information containing a current parking position or a future parking start time and a parking position of an authorized vehicle, and transmit the parking information to the authorized vehicle information creation unit; and the authorized vehicle information creation unit is configured to receive the parking information from the parking information creation unit, create authorized vehicle information containing vehicle information, a parking position, a parking start time and a parking end time of the authorized vehicle, and transmit the authorized vehicle information to a user terminal possessed by a user who desires to inspect the authorized vehicle.
