Vehicle Point Management for Eco-Driving and Activity Rewards
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing vehicle-based systems lack widespread motivation for eco-friendly and social contribution activities, as they primarily focus on limited services and do not effectively encourage users to engage in eco-driving, healthcare, and social contribution activities beyond a specific range of services.
Innovation Solution
A point management system that uses a vehicle as a contact point, integrating an in-vehicle device, smart devices, and a management server to evaluate and reward users for eco-driving, healthcare, and social contribution activities, providing points that can be used across a broader range of services and activities.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a vehicle-based system provides points for eco-driving activities, then user motivation for eco-driving is improved, but the system's applicability to broader social contribution activities and healthcare activities is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The system extends the point accumulation mechanism from单一的eco-driving activities to multiple activity categories including eco-driving, healthcare activities, and social contribution activities. The in-vehicle device and smart device work together to detect and evaluate various types of activities, making the system universally applicable across different domains while maintaining a unified point management framework.
2Device complexity
If the system focuses on limited services for point accumulation, then system complexity is reduced, but the widespread motivation for eco-friendly and social contribution activities is insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The system divides activity detection and evaluation into separate functional modules: the in-vehicle device handles eco-driving detection, the smart device handles healthcare and social contribution activity detection, and the point management server handles unified point calculation and distribution. This segmentation allows the system to cover diverse activities while maintaining manageable complexity through clear division of labor.
3Adaptability or versatility
If the system uses vehicle as contact point for multiple activity types, then adaptability to different activities is improved, but the difficulty of detecting and measuring various activities increases
Solution Approach 1:
The smart device acts as an intermediary between the user's activities and the in-vehicle device's detection capabilities. The smart device detects healthcare and social contribution activities locally, then transmits this information to the in-vehicle device for unified processing. This intermediary approach simplifies the overall detection system by distributing detection functions appropriately.

AI summary
A point management system using a vehicle as a contact point includes: an evaluation device that evaluates a specific activity of an user of the vehicle based on vehicle information according to a travel state of the vehicle or activity information recorded in a smart device of the user; a point giving device that gives the point to the user according to an evaluation by the evaluation device; and a propose device that proposes, to the user, an activity for which the point is given. The specific activity includes at least one of three categories of an eco-driving activity, a health care activity, and a social contribution activity.
