Vehicle Screen Privacy Mode Based on Occupant Detection
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Ensuring the safety and security of information in vehicles while optimizing technical operations is challenging, particularly in preventing unauthorized access to information resources.
Innovation Solution
A computing platform that uses driver and passenger sensor data, facial recognition, voice recognition, and privacy modes to obscure or reveal information on vehicle screens based on occupant identities and relationships, applying different privacy settings and notifications to maintain information security.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If information is displayed on vehicle screens for user access, then ease of operation is improved, but information security deteriorates due to potential unauthorized access by passengers
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically adjusts privacy settings based on real-time detection of vehicle occupants using sensors and biometric recognition. When a passenger is detected, the system automatically switches to privacy mode, dynamically changing display behavior without user intervention to maintain both accessibility and security
Solution Approach 2:
The system uses feedback from sensors detecting vehicle occupants to automatically adjust information display privacy settings. The sensor data provides continuous feedback about vehicle occupancy status, which triggers automatic privacy mode activation or deactivation, creating a closed-loop control system that balances accessibility and security
2Reliability
If privacy mode is activated to prevent unauthorized access, then information security is improved, but ease of operation deteriorates due to automatic screen obscuring
Solution Approach 1:
The system provides self-service by automatically detecting vehicle occupants and adjusting privacy settings without requiring manual user input. The biometric recognition system and sensors work autonomously to determine when privacy mode should be activated or deactivated, eliminating the need for users to manually switch privacy modes
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary action by pre-configuring privacy settings based on anticipated scenarios. When specific occupants are detected or when certain conditions are met, the system has already prepared and activated appropriate privacy modes in advance, ensuring security measures are in place before unauthorized access can occur

AI summary
A vehicle computing platform may receive driver sensor data indicating whether a driver seat in a vehicle is occupied. The vehicle computing platform may determine, based on the driver sensor data, an identity of a driver of the vehicle. The vehicle computing platform may receive passenger sensor data indicating whether a passenger seat in the vehicle is occupied. The vehicle computing platform may, based on the passenger sensor data indicating that the passenger seat in the vehicle is occupied, obscure information on a screen of the vehicle.
