20200151475 · 2020-05-14 ·

A method and system are disclosed and include, in response to a user being located within a vehicle associated with the vehicle-sharing request, obtaining, using a processor configured to execute instructions stored in a nontransitory computer-readable medium, image data corresponding to the user from a camera. The method also includes determining, using the processor, whether the image data corresponds to an image associated with a vehicle-sharing account of the user. The method also includes in response to determining the image data corresponds to the image, enabling, using the processor, the user to activate the vehicle.

METHOD FOR A TWO-STAGE AUTHORIZATION OF A CHARGING PROCESS ON A CHARGING POST
20200130643 · 2020-04-30 ·

The method for a two-stage authorization of a charging operation includes a first stage and a second stage. In the first stage, a control device allocated to the charging station receives a terminal-side proof of authorization transmitted from a mobile terminal device. The first personal authorization of the charging station user is verified on the basis of the terminal-side proof of authorization, without any action of the charging station user being required. With the given first authorization, the charging cable is released. In the second stage, the vehicle-side proof of authorization is received and verified after the vehicle has been connected to the charging cable, whereupon in response to verification of the vehicle-side proof of authorization, a second authorization is carried out, due to which the charging operation is approved.

Networked intoxication vehicle immobilization

A vehicle immobilization system includes a detection element operable to detect a level of an intoxicant in a user's breath. A control module is operable to receive a signal from the detection element indicating the level of intoxicant in the user's breath, and to selectively restrict operation of a vehicle based on the level of intoxicant in the user's breath exceeding a threshold. A wireless relay is operable to replace a standard relay in the vehicle, and to wirelessly communicate with the control module such that the control module is operable to control the wireless relay to selectively restrict operation of the vehicle.

An embodiment system includes a vehicle configured to generate a message for informing a tagging status of a portable terminal, in response to the portable terminal entering the tagging status to a door handle, and to control the door handle to be developed over time after the tagging status of the portable terminal is changed to an untagging status, in response to the tagging status of the portable terminal being changed to the untagging status, and a server configured to receive the message for informing the tagging status from the vehicle and transmit the message for informing the tagging status to the portable terminal.

Tamper-resistant actuator for a vehicle anti-theft feature
11904805 · 2024-02-20 · ·

A tamper-resistant actuator includes a valid input, configured to deliver an input electrical current through a circuit. A high-pass filter is positioned within the circuit that degrades components of the input electrical current that are outside of a predefined current range. Components that are within the predefined current range define an output current. A transistor activates a switch when the output current from the high-pass filter is received by the transistor.
