Vehicle-Mobile Data Link for Personalized Driving Assistance
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing systems for motor vehicles do not effectively transfer navigation and user data from mobile terminals to the vehicle, limiting the functionality of driver assistance systems and personalized features.
Innovation Solution
Establishing a communication link between the motor vehicle and a mobile terminal to transfer terminal data, including navigation information and user information, to the vehicle's control apparatus for evaluation and activation of automatic driving and personalized functions.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If a communication link is established between the mobile terminal and the motor vehicle to transfer navigation data, then the driver assistance systems can receive destination information, but the data transfer is limited to basic navigation indications without extensive terminal data
Solution Approach 1:
The communication interface is designed to perform multiple functions: it serves both as a basic navigation data transfer channel and as a comprehensive data exchange interface for extensive terminal data. This multi-functionality allows the same hardware infrastructure to support both simple and complex data transfer scenarios without requiring separate dedicated systems.
Solution Approach 2:
The terminal data is segmented into different categories (navigation information, user information, application data) that can be selectively transferred to the motor vehicle. This segmentation allows the system to transfer only the necessary data subsets based on the specific driving function or personalized feature being activated, reducing unnecessary data complexity.
2Adaptability or versatility
If extensive terminal data is transferred from the mobile terminal to the motor vehicle, then more driver assistance functions can be activated, but the current system only supports limited data transfer
Solution Approach 1:
The communication interface is designed to perform multiple functions: it serves both as a basic navigation data transfer channel and as a comprehensive data exchange interface for extensive terminal data. This multi-functionality allows the same hardware infrastructure to support both simple and complex data transfer scenarios without requiring separate dedicated systems.
Solution Approach 2:
The data transfer capability is made dynamic and adaptable. The system can adjust the extent and type of data transferred based on the specific driving function or personalized feature being activated. This dynamic approach allows the system to scale from basic navigation data to extensive terminal data as needed, without requiring a permanently complex communication infrastructure.
3Ease of operation
If the control apparatus receives only basic navigation indications from the mobile terminal, then the communication system remains simple, but personalized functions and advanced driver assistance features cannot be provided
Solution Approach 1:
The data transfer capability is made dynamic and adaptable. The system can adjust the extent and type of data transferred based on the specific driving function or personalized feature being activated. This dynamic approach allows the system to scale from basic navigation data to extensive terminal data as needed, without requiring a permanently complex communication infrastructure.
Solution Approach 2:
The system establishes the communication link and prepares the data transfer infrastructure in advance, before specific driving functions or personalized features are activated. This preliminary setup allows the system to seamlessly transition from simple to complex data transfer modes as needed, maintaining ease of operation while enabling versatile functionality.

AI summary
An example method of providing an at least partially automatic driving function and/or a personalized function in a motor vehicle as well as to the motor vehicle may include establishing a communication link between a communication interface of the motor vehicle and a communication interface of a mobile terminal, which is associated with a user of the motor vehicle; receiving terminal data transferred via the communication link in the motor vehicle, which is recorded on the mobile terminal and which describes at least navigation information and/or user information relating to the user; and providing an at least partially automatic driving function of a driver assistance system of the motor vehicle and/or a personalized function in the motor vehicle by evaluating the received terminal data.
