Vehicle Digital Key Range Control by Operating Environment
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing digital key systems lack the ability to adapt contactless operations based on the environment, leading to unnecessary or unwanted vehicle functions being executed in specific environments, such as a home setting.
Innovation Solution
A method that involves acquiring judgement information to determine the environment an object is in and executing environment-specific operation rules, including controlling the range and turning off contactless operations as necessary, using communication modules and sensing nodes to establish connections and determine proximity.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If contactless operations are enabled in digital key systems, then user convenience and operational efficiency are improved, but unwanted vehicle functions may be executed in specific environments such as home settings
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by making the contactless operation range adjustable and environment-dependent. The system dynamically determines whether to enable contactless operations based on the vehicle's location (e.g., home environment vs. external environment), allowing the operation range to be narrowed or turned off in specific environments to prevent unwanted executions while maintaining convenience in appropriate settings
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements local quality by applying different operation rules to different spatial locations. The vehicle is equipped with a determination module that identifies the current environment (home, office, etc.) and applies corresponding environment operation rules that locally adjust the contactless operation behavior, allowing convenient operations in some areas while preventing unwanted operations in others
2Measurement precision
If environment-specific operation rules are implemented, then operational precision and user experience are enhanced, but system complexity increases due to additional judgment and control mechanisms
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies self-service by enabling the vehicle to automatically determine its own environment (home, office, etc.) using onboard communication modules and sensing nodes, and automatically apply the appropriate environment operation rules without requiring manual user input. The system serves itself by making autonomous decisions about whether to enable contactless operations based on its detected environment
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements feedback through communication modules that interact with environment communication modules in the surrounding area. The system receives feedback information (such as connection status with sensing nodes or network access status) and uses this feedback to determine the current environment, creating a closed-loop control system that adjusts operation rules based on environmental feedback

AI summary
An operating method, an operating device, and a computer-readable storage medium. The operating method is applied to a first object, and comprises: acquiring determining information; on the basis of the determining information, determining whether the first object is in a first environment; and in response to the first object being in the first environment, executing an environment operating rule corresponding to the first environment.
