MOBILE ACCESS SYSTEM FOR GRANTING ACCESS TO A DEVICE
A mobile access system for granting access to a device, particularly a vehicle, is disclosed. The system includes a transmitter unit for wirelessly transmitting an unlock signal, a sensor unit with a gyroscopic sensor for detecting movement, and a control unit connected to the sensor unit. The control unit receives sensor data, recognizes a sequence of movements, checks if it matches a predefined first sequence, and unblocks the system if there is a match, enabling the unlock signal transmission only in the unblocked state. The system may also include an input unit for additional user input and an indication element for user feedback. It can block the system based on a second predefined sequence. A method for granting access using this mobile access system is also described.
Method for Dropping Off a Shipment in a Motor Vehicle, and Associated Motor Vehicle
The present disclose is directed to a method for dropping off a shipment in a motor vehicle. In one embodiment, the method comprises: transmission of a digital key to a control device of the motor vehicle, transmission of a piece of authentication information to an authentication element, capture of the piece of authentication information or of a piece of information derived from the piece of authentication information, actuation of a vehicle device to allow access to at least part of the motor vehicle interior by the control device when an authentication condition that evaluates both the piece of authentication information or the derived piece of information and the digital key is met, and actuation of the vehicle device and/or of a further vehicle device to close the motor vehicle following storage of the shipment in the motor vehicle or after a prescribed waiting time.
VEHICLE CONTROL SYSTEM, VEHICLE CONTROL PROGRAM, AND POSITION CONFIRMATION DEVICE
A vehicle control system including a position confirmation device or a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a vehicle control program detects an occurrence of a predetermined confirmation event, transmits a confirmation request message, receives the message transmitted from the position confirmation device, converts a request content indicated in the received message into a content corresponding to a function of an own device, performs position confirmation, and transmits a result notification message.
Apparatus and Method for Actuating a Function of a Motor Vehicle and Motor Vehicle
An apparatus for actuating a function of a motor vehicle. A first transmission/reception device is arranged at a first location of the motor vehicle and is configured to receive a functional signal for actuating a function of the motor vehicle from a functional device different from the motor vehicle. A central transmission/reception device is arranged at a central location of the motor vehicle and is configured to receive the functional signal from the functional device. A control device is in communication with the first transmission/reception device and the central transmission/reception device. The control device is configured to measure and compare a propagation time of the functional signal from the functional device to the first transmission/reception device and a propagation time of the functional signal from the functional device to the central transmission/reception device, and to actuate or disable the function based on the comparison.
Apparatus and Method for Actuating a Function of a Motor Vehicle and Motor Vehicle
An apparatus for actuating a function of a motor vehicle includes a first transmission/reception device arranged at a first location of the motor vehicle and configured to receive a functional signal for actuating a function of the motor vehicle from a functional device different from the motor vehicle. The apparatus also includes a control device in communication with the first transmission/reception device and configured to determine a communication loss of the first transmission/reception device and to actuate or disable the function based on the determination.
Alarming Method and Device
Provided are an alarming method and device. The method includes that: when wireless equipment determines that information, stored in the wireless equipment, of at least one terminal disappears from a connected equipment list, the wireless equipment enters an alert state, wherein the wireless equipment is arranged to access a communication network, terminals access the communication network through the wireless equipment and the connected equipment list records information of all terminals connected to the wireless equipment (S102); and the wireless equipment entering the alert state gives an alarm when a preset condition is met, wherein the preset condition includes that: it is recorded in the connected equipment list that there are still one or more terminals connected with the wireless equipment, and/or, the wireless equipment enters or is in a charging mode (S104).
ON-BOARD COMMUNICATION SYSTEM, AND PORTABLE DEVICE
In an on-board communication system, an on-board device transmits detection signals from a plurality of antennas disposed in a vehicle, and a plurality of portable devices each receive the detection signals and transmit response signals corresponding to the received detection signals. Each portable device measures an elapsed time from when the processing start signal is received, and (i) transmits a first response signal that includes information corresponding to the received detection signals, and (ii) when a specified time has elapsed from receipt of the processing start signal, transmits a second response signal including the same information as the information included in the first response signal. Position detection of the portable devices is performed based on the response signals.
Vehicle and control method thereof
Disclosed is a vehicle capable of performing digital key authentication more smoothly. The vehicle includes a reader provided to perform communication with a digital key through near field communication (NFC), and a controller configured to perform a preset function of the vehicle based on a success of a transaction with the digital key through the reader, wherein the reader operates in a first mode of detecting the presence of the digital key based on the success of the transaction, and does not start the transaction even when the digital key is detected while operating in the first mode.
VEHICLE SECURITY APPARATUS, SECURITY METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM
A vehicle security apparatus includes a primary dynamic authenticator and a connection manager that are provided in an ECU included in a vehicle, wherein when an access request from an access source in the vehicle to an access destination in the vehicle is received, the primary dynamic authenticator determines, based on reliability of an application installed in the access source determined based on at least one of a state of the application of the access source or a state of the vehicle, whether to cause a secondary dynamic authenticator included in a zone ECU connected to the access destination of the access request to execute authorization determination for the access request, and when it is determined to cause the secondary dynamic authenticator that corresponds to the access destination to execute the authorization determination, the connection manager outputs the access request to the zone ECU connected to the access destination.
Vehicular system, vehicle side unit, and mobile device
A vehicular system includes a vehicle side unit and mobile devices registered to the vehicle side unit. The vehicle side unit transmits a first request signal designating a first mobile device. A replying section of the first mobile device replies a response signal when receiving the first request signal. A replying section of a second mobile device replies a non-designated report signal when receiving the first request signal at a time point different from a time point at which the first mobile device replies the response signal. The vehicle side unit includes a vehicle side receiving section receiving the signal transmitted from the replying section of each mobile device and a locked-in determiner determining that only the first mobile is locked in the compartment of the vehicle when the response signal from the first mobile device is received and the non-designated report signal is not received.
