Description
Intellectual Property Office Application No. GB1412740.1 RTTVT Date:24November 2014 The following terms are registered trade marks and should be read as such wherever they occur in this document: Facebook Tencent WeChat Google Bluetooth Intellectual Property Office is an operating name of the Patent Office www.ipo.govuk Method for Identifying a User of a Vehicle The invention relates to a method according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
Such a method for identifying a user of a vehicle, in particular, a passenger vehicle is known from DE 102012012565 Al. In said method, at least one code is displayed on a display of the vehicle, the code comprising at least identification data of the vehicle. The code can be a barcode or a two-dimensional barcode in the form of a quick response code (OR code). In said method, the displayed code is scanned and decoded by means of a mobile terminal of the user thereby determining the identification data from the code.
For example, the mobile terminal can be a smartphone, a mobile phone, or a tablet PC.
Moreover, the determined identification data are forwarded from the mobile terminal to a server via a network connection which can be a wireless network connection. Additionally, the user is identified by means of the server on the basis of the identification data received by the server.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a method of the aforementioned kind, by means of which method a particularly easy and comfortable operation of the vehicle can be realized.
This object is solved by a method having the features of patent claim 1. Advantageous embodiments with expedient developments of the invention are indicated in the other patent claims.
In order to provide a method of the kind indicated in the preamble of patent claim 1, by means of which method a particularly easy and comfortable operation of the vehicle can be realized, according to the present invention user-specific data are assigned to the identified user by the server. For example, the user-specific data are stored in a memory of the server. Furthermore, the user-specific data are forwarded from the server to the vehicle via a network connection which can be, for example, a wireless network connection. Moreover, at least one component of the vehicle is operated on the basis of the user-specific data received by the vehicle.
It has been shown that, in conventional vehicles, several situations can occur in which the operation of the vehicle can be cumbersome for the user. For example, a lot of research and development has been conducted or undergone to understand driver behaviours and to provide personalized user or vehicle settings promoting driving comfort and convenience. One of the challenges is driver identification. Bio-matrix approach has been explored but realization is still immature or costly. Thus, the driver needs to set his preferred settings manually. Furthermore, today many vehicles can go online with various applications which are also referred to as apps being developed, providing information and convenient services and meeting customers' needs on the road. Among all these apps some require user login or acceptance of the terms of service with user information input. For example, applications such as Facebook, Personal Radio and Local Deal need a user to login in order to enable the necessary services. Moreover, for example, Google Local Search requires acceptance of the terms of service with email info input. However, entering such information or a passcode while in a vehicle environment with a controller or touchpad can turn out to be quite cumbersome.
The present invention can solve for the driver identification issue in the first case and simplify the user login and input process in the latter case. A first idea behind the invention is that a mobile terminal such as, for example, a smartphone has become a very personal device or belonging, some internet companies are pioneering the use of a code such as a OR code and the camera-equipped mobile terminal and an camera-equipped mobile terminal for the ease of their website login on PC. For example, Tencent, WeChat and Google are among these mentioned internet companies. Typically, a user needs to log into a client program on his mobile terminal and the mobile terminal is used as an image scanner to scan the code on a display, for example, a computer screen. Normally, the user needs to do this once. Then, the user is automatically logged in and can start using or surfing specific websites.
In the method according to the present invention, a login or authentication procedure can be carried out via the vehicle and a backend infrastructure comprising the server. This means that, for example, said component comprises at least one seat of the vehicle, wherein at least one position of the seat is adjusted on the basis of the received user-specific data. Hence, the user does not need to adjust the seat manually. Alternatively or additionally, the component can comprise at least one software application in which at least one setting of the software application is set on the basis of the received user-specific data. Alternatively or additionally, the component can comprise at least one software application which uses the received user-specific data to execute at least one login or authentication procedure. For example, the user's personal settings such as the user's point of interests and/or destinations and/or preferred vehicle settings such as the seat position can be retrieved and set on the basis of the received user-specific data. The user operating and driving behaviours can be recorded, analyzed and optimized.
Moreover, the backend, i.e. the server can make the vehicle association with a user account and inform the application to automatically start while skipping the login or lOS acceptance page (lOS -Terms Of Service). The user can then immediately use the application services.
A second idea behind the invention is that a code displayed on the display can be read by a camera of the mobile terminal. Moreover, the code can be processed by the mobile terminal to extract encoded data or information. A OR code is one of the commonly used two-dimensional barcodes available. The OR codes are now broadly used in both commercial tracking and identification applications and convenience-orientated applications aimed at mobile phone users, one of which is website login. In such a case, a OR code with the website URL (URL -Uniform Resource Locator) encoded is generated and shown on the login page on a computer screen, and when the registered user scans the code with a verified device, they will automatically be logged into a website.
Authentication is achieved by the device communicating with a server, wherein the device can be a mobile terminal such as, for example, a smartphone.
The method according to the present invention can ease and simplify the user identification and login process which is required in many personalization and vehicle applications. All the user needs to do is to use his personal mobile terminal and scan the code generated and displayed on the display which is, for example, a vehicle head unit screen. The rest is automatically handled and done in the background by the server in a matter of seconds. This convenience can significantly improve the user experience and comfort in operating and/or interacting with the vehicle. By using a code to identify the user, the identification process can be realized in a particularly cost-and time-efficient way. The idea behind using a code is that Bluetooth or NFC connectivity (NEC -Near Field Communication) could also be utilized to identify a mobile terminal and, thus, a user.
This level of identification may be acceptable for certain applications which do not require user account association or login process. However, to realize the same level of user identification and association as mentioned above, a Bluetooth or NEC connectivity would meet software and protocol adjustments on the vehicle side which are not realistic, costly and time-consuming. In contrast, by using a code adjustments and changes on the vehicle side are not necessary. The identification association intelligence can be handled in the backend, i.e. the server.
Further advantages, features, and details of the invention derive from the following description of a preferred embodiment as well as from the drawing. The features and feature combinations previously mentioned in the description as well as the features and feature combinations mentioned in the following description of the figure and/or shown in the figure alone can be employed not only in the respectively indicated combination but also in other combination or taken alone without leaving the scope of the invention.
The only figure shows a flow diagram illustrating a method for identifying a user of a vehicle, in which method at least one component of the vehicle is operated on the basis of user-specific data received by the vehicle from a server.
The figure shows a flow diagram which is used to illustrate a method for identifying a user of a vehicle, in particular a passenger vehicle. In a first step Si of said method, at least one code is displayed on a display of the vehicle, the code comprising at least identification data of the vehicle. For example, the code is a two-dimensional barcode in the form of a QR code which is displayed on the display. For example, the display is a head unit screen arranged in the interior of the vehicle.
In a second step S2 of the method, the displayed code is scanned and decoded by means of a mobile terminal of the user. For example, the mobile terminal is a smartphone comprising at least one camera by means of which the code is scanned. The mobile terminal further comprises a processing unit by means of which the scanned code is decoded whereby the identification data are extracted and determined from the code. For example, the identification data of the vehicle comprises a vehicle identification such as, for example, a VIN (VIN -Vehicle Identification Number). In a third step S3 of the method, the determined identification data are forwarded form the mobile terminal to a backend comprising a server via a network connection. The backend and, thus, the server receive the identification data and identity the user on the basis ot the received identification data.
In a fourth step 54 of the method, user-specific data are assigned to the identified user by the server (backend). For example, the user-specific data are stored in a memory of the server. In order to assign the user-specitic data to the identitied user, the received VIN is compared with at least one VIN stored in the memory of the server. The stored VIN is assigned to the user-specific data. If the received VIN corresponds to the stored yIN, the user-specitic data assigned to the stored VIN are assigned to the received yIN.
In a fifth step S5 ot the method, the assigned user-specific data are forwarded from the server to the vehicle via a network connection. For example, said network connections can be wireless network connections so that, for example, the respective data are forwarded or transferred via the internet.
In a sixth step S6 of the method at least one component of the vehicle is operated on the basis of the user-specitic data received by the vehicle. For example, the sixth step S6 comprises that at least one position of at least one seat arranged in the interior of the vehicle is adjusted on the basis ot the received user-specific data. Alternatively or additionally, the sixth step S6 can comprise that at least one software application uses the received user-specitic data to execute at least one login procedure and/or at least one setting ot the sottware application is set on the basis of the received user-specitic data.
The tigure illustrates the user authentication status via mobile device, i.e. the user is registered with the server and the user already logged into his/her account via the mobile terminal; normally this needs to be done tor once. In step Si. it is per the user's request that the code is generated at the vehicle display and in the meantime the request together with the VIN info is also sent to the backend server via vehicle communication link. The server then knows which VIN has made request and that VIN becomes the "stored VIN" in step S4.
For example, a mobile terminal companion application or a browser functionality is developed in order to scan and decode the displayed code. Preferably, the mobile terminal application (app) and a vehicle application share the same backend server so that the handling of the user's authentication and the user login process can be achieved simultaneously.
In the case of separate backends, a communication interface should be established to share the authentication and login into between the smartphone server to the vehicle backend. When at least two backend servers are used, it is advantageous to establish a direct communication link between the two servers. However, since a vehicle homepage can feature open up various service interfaces tor remote contiguration and diagnosis, the Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) can also be used for developing a companion mobile terminal app directly interacting with the vehicle backend. The vehicle homepage can adopt a user-responsive design that allows automatically scaling the user interface based on the device the user is using to browse. In this case, the user can also use his mobile terminal to browse the vehicle homepage and no separate companion app needs to be developed. For example, in order to realize the method, a camera function can be added in an html5-browser running mobile terminal.
Secondly, a QR code reader is to be implemented in the mobile terminal application to allow the mobile terminal camera to scan and decode the displayed code. The mobile terminal app should also allow the decoded information, i.e. the VIN to be torwarded to the backend (server). An encoder should be included in the trontend vehicle app to generate the code tor the yIN, preterably according to OR standard ISO/lEO 18004:2006.
The backend can be developed to accommodate and retrieve the user personal account info which can be preset or user and/or vehicle settings, or a third-party account can be linked to the vehicle account. For example, the third-party account can be Facebook-linked to the vehicle homepage account which normally can be setup online. Intelligence and authentication shall be implemented to make an association between the registered user and the connected vehicle based on the VIN received from the mobile terminal.
Since the vehicle backend knows which vehicle is waiting for user login at that moment and which user has scanned the code on that particular vehicle, this determining process can be processed easily. Moreover, automation shall be added in the app in response to the successtul association tor the user with the vehicle.
In the following, general use cases are described in which a particularly easy and comfortable operation of the vehicle can be realized by means of said method. Assume that the vehicle is online and connects to the backend server of the vehicle. The user has his personal mobile terminal in the form of a smartphone with a registered client app installed and his personal account logged in. When a user identification or login is needed for the vehicle to recognize the smartphone and thereby its user, a QR code with the VIN encoded is first generated and displayed on the vehicle head unit screen. Some apps or term of service acceptance requests may just require the user to login or enter user information once to facilitate first usage or system reset. Some may require login every time they are started while others only need to login if the user manually logged out. The user uses his smartphone to scan the displayed QR code and the client program on the smartphone decodes the OR code which yields his yIN. This unique information can be forwarded to the backend server where the user who is using this particular vehicle is identified. From then on the user data retrieval and association with the vehicle can be handled by the backend server where the user personal info is created and stored.
The personal data can be pre-filled beforehand when the user gets registered either via the client app on the smartphone or via the vehicle homepage. Thus, for example, the user's personal settings such as user points of interest and/or destinations and/or preferred vehicle settings like a seat position can be retrieved and set. The operating and driving behaviours can be recorded, analyzed and optimized. Moreover, the backend can make the vehicle association with the user account and informs an app to automatically start while skipping the login or TOS acceptance page. The user can then immediately use the app services.
