The unlocking device 300 realizes interaction with an unlocking object through bluetooth and a network channel, respectively. Under the near field scene, the unlocking device communicates with a near field communication module of the object through Bluetooth, the near field communication module communicates with a control module of the object, the control module executes a control instruction, and the execution result and information of the control instruction are fed back to the near field communication module. And the near field communication module feeds back the information to the unlocking equipment through a Bluetooth channel. In a remote scene, the unlocking device applies for a remote control and information viewing request to the background through a remote network end https channel, the background forwards the request to a T-BOX module of an object, the T-BOX module issues an instruction to the control module, the control module receives and executes a corresponding instruction, an execution result is fed back to the T-BOX module and then fed back to the background, and the background feeds back the result to the unlocking device, so that closed-loop interaction of information is realized.
The unlocking device can be authorized for the first time by means of authorization. For example, after the user account applies for, the user account and the vehicle are bound. The capability list of the user can be obtained according to the VIN number of the object, the digital key is generated from the background and is issued to the unlocking device, and the unlocking device stores the digital key to the local. When the device is used next time, only the generated digital unlocking identification needs to be called.
The unlocking device 300 including the main control module 302 may determine to apply different communication modules and communication methods by determining a distance between the unlocking device and an unlocking object. For example, the master module 302 may first attempt to communicate with an unlocking object using a near field communication module. If the communication cannot be realized, the unlocking equipment is confirmed to be far away from the unlocking object, and the remote communication module can be applied.
Accordingly, the master module 302 may also attempt to communicate with the unlocking object using the remote communication module and determine the distance between the unlocking device and the unlocking object from the location of the remote communication module (4G network location). If the unlocking device is far away from the unlocking object, the remote communication module can be applied.
