Vehicle Mobile Terminal Authentication via Action Verification
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current authentication and registration systems for communication-capable apparatuses, such as vehicles and industrial equipment, burden both dealers and users with the need for extensive verification processes, increasing operational complexity and security risks.
Innovation Solution
An authentication and registration system that utilizes a first apparatus (e.g., a vehicle) and a second apparatus (e.g., a mobile terminal) connected via a network, where the second apparatus transmits authentication requests and receives action execution signals from the first apparatus, allowing a single user in a trusted relationship to perform authentication and registration while ensuring security through predetermined actions and information output.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If strict authentication examination is performed to ensure security, then security is improved, but burden on dealer and user increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system enables self-service authentication where the user's own mobile terminal performs the authentication examination. The mobile terminal displays action information that the user executes on the vehicle, and the vehicle reports back the execution result. This eliminates the need for dealer involvement in the authentication process, reducing burden on both dealer and user while maintaining security through automated verification.
2Reliability
If multiple parties are involved in authentication process, then security verification is improved, but operational complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The authentication function is extracted from the dealer's system and embedded directly into the user's mobile terminal. The mobile terminal now performs the authentication examination independently by displaying action information and receiving execution results from the vehicle. This extraction eliminates the need for dealer participation in the authentication flow, reducing operational complexity while maintaining security verification through the distributed authentication mechanism.

AI summary
An authentication and registration system is provided which can reduce a burden at the time of authentication and registration while ensuring security when a single apparatus is used to perform authentication and registration of identification information on another apparatus. In an authentication and registration system (1), an authentication request signal is transmitted from a mobile terminal (3) to a registration server (2). The registration server (2) transmits an operation command signal to the mobile terminal (3) and when the signal is received, a display (3b) of the mobile terminal (3) displays operation sub-commands. When the sub-commands are executed through operations of switches (10) to (20), an on-board controller (4) transmits an operating state signal indicating the execution to the registration server (2). When the operating state signal indicates that the sub-commands are executed, the registration server (2) determines that authentication of the identification information succeeds.
