In-vehicle media content monitoring and report generation
The invention provides a novel and unique system and method for cross channel in-vehicle identification of media, source, and consumption measurement and analysis. Real-time measurement and analysis of all applicable forms of media that a driver or passenger may consume inside of an automobile can be achieved. This includes AM/FM radio, Satellite Digital Audio Radio Service (SDARS), stored media such as CDs, MP3s & DVDs, streaming media, internet radio, audio books, podcasts, text-to-speech content, use of hands-free calling and other forms of audio, including content routed to the In Vehicle Entertainment (IVE) system through integration with a smartphone, media player or similar external Consumer Electronic (CE) device via wired or wireless connectivity, including but not limited to USB, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and the like, and also including integration platforms such as APPLE CARPLAY, GOOGLE ANDROID AUTO, HARMAN AHA RADIO, PANASONIC AUPEO, PIONEER ZYPR, FORD SYNC, MIRRORLINK, AIRBIQUITY CHOREO, and the like.
SATELLITE RECEIVER OPTION FOR CERTIFICATE DISTRIBUTION
In exemplary embodiments of the present invention, a V2V unit in a vehicle (OBE) can, for example, store a plurality of years of encrypted certificates. The certificates can, for example, be programmed at an OBE factory using a secure server, and access to all certificates can be locked until an unlock key is computed for a given window (certificate validity period). An in-vehicle satellite receiver can then receive, over, for example, a dedicated satellite control channel, unlock codes for a current time window and a next time window, and provide them to the V2V device. Using those unlock codes, the V2V device (OBE) can compute an unlock key from an unlock code provided by the satellite receiver. In this manner an in-vehicle device may be directly messaged, but only to unlock one or more certificates at a controlled time. Without the received lock codes, the stored certificates are not useable.
PROJECTION DEVICE
A projection device comprises a light source, a first attenuator and a second attenuator, a first driver, a second driver, a light receiving element, and a controller. The light source emits light. The first attenuator and the second attenuator attenuate intensity of the light from the light source. The first driver drives the first attenuator. The second driver drives the second attenuator. The light receiving element receives the light distributed by the second attenuator. The controller controls the second driver to control the distribution ratio of the light distributed to the light receiving element by the second attenuator according to control of transmissivity of light at the first attenuator by the first driver.
Fingerprinting Electronic Control Units For Vehicle Intrusion Detection
An anomaly-based intrusion detection system is presented for use in vehicle networks. The intrusion detection system measures and exploits the intervals of periodic in-vehicle messages for fingerprinting electronic control units. Fingerprints are then used for constructing a baseline of clock behaviors, for example with a Recursive Least Squares algorithm. Based on the baseline, the intrusion detection system uses cumulative sum to detect any abnormal shifts in the identification errors—a clear sign of an intrusion. This approach allows quick identification of in-vehicle network intrusions with low false positive rates.
ON-SALE VEHICLE SHARING ACCESSORY DEVICE AND SYSTEM
Systems and methods disclosed herein include providing an on-sale vehicle, receiving an access request for the on-sale vehicle from a buyer, approving the access request, transmitting at least one authentication key, confirming an identity of the buyer, initiating a test drive, monitoring the test drive, and completing a transaction upon conclusion of the test drive including revoking the at least one authentication key in response to the buyer not purchasing the on-sale vehicle or revoking an authentication key of a prior titleholder in response to the buyer purchasing the on-sale vehicle.
PRESENCE-BASED NETWORK AUTHENTICATION
Systems and methods are provided to authenticating an electronic device with a wireless network using a presence-based authentication process. As part of the presence-based authentication process, an authentication entity may receive a registration message from an electronic device. The authentication entity may respond to the registration message by transmitting an authentication challenge associated with providing access to the wireless network and/or network feature thereof. If the electronic device provides a successful response to the authentication challenge, then the authentication entity may authenticate the electronic device to utilize the wireless network and/or network feature thereof.
ACCELERATED VERIFICATION OF AUTOMOTIVE SOFTWARE IN VEHICLES
Systems, methods, and vehicles for verifying integrity of automotive software. In one implementation, an electronic processor is configured to receive a power-up signal and randomly select one of a plurality of fingerprints. The electronic processor is also configured to retrieve a set of data stored in the memory cells of the selected fingerprint. The electronic processor is further configured to calculate a pre-boot verification value for the selected fingerprint using a one-way cryptographic function with a secret key and the retrieved set of data. The electronic processor is also configured to compare the pre-boot verification value to a reference verification value for the selected fingerprint. The electronic processor is further configured to release a security halt on the software image when the pre-boot verification value matches the reference verification value for the selected fingerprint.
TRIGGERING OF UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLE AUTHENTICATION AND AUTHORIZATION PROCEDURE
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) user equipment (UE) may perform a registration procedure with a UAV service supplier (USS) device via a network connection to register with the USS device. The UAV UE may perform a registration procedure with a core network device to register with a network associated with the core network device based at least in part on performing the registration procedure with the USS device. The UAV UE may receive, from the core network device, an indication to perform an authentication and authorization procedure only after performing the registration procedure with the USS device and after performing the registration procedure with the core network device. Numerous other aspects are provided.
VEHICLE TOLL TRANSPONDER FOR ENABLING MULTIPLE TRANSACTION CARDS AND SECURELY PROVIDING TRANSACTION CARD DETAILS
A toll transponder may receive transaction card data identifying a transaction card associated with a transaction account. The toll transponder may provide to a toll server device, and via a toll antenna of a toll collection system, a request for a transaction amount for a vehicle toll, and may receive a response requesting authorization for payment of the transaction amount. The toll transponder may determine, based on the response, an authorization request cryptogram for payment of the transaction amount, and generate an encrypted signal identifying the authorization request cryptogram, the transaction card data, and a toll transponder identifier identifying the toll transponder. The toll transponder may provide the encrypted signal to the toll server device via the toll antenna, and may receive from the toll server device, via the toll antenna, data indicating whether the transaction amount for the vehicle toll is approved.
