Description

  The present invention relates to an automobile control system that switches between a state in which an automobile is operated and a state in which the operation of the automobile is locked based on information obtained from a driver's license having a built-in IC chip, an automobile having the automobile control system, and a computer. The present invention relates to an automobile control program that allows a driver's license to be verified.

  With the revision of the Road Traffic Law in 2001, it becomes possible to record the description of the driver's license by an electromagnetic method, and one of the electromagnetic methods is the conversion of the driver's license into an IC card. The purpose of using a driver's license as an IC card is to prevent counterfeiting and alteration, streamline and improve the efficiency of traffic police operations, protect privacy by deleting the card from the bank account, and respond to international standardization. However, further merits of a driver's license in the form of an IC card are required. Also, in recent years, with the advancement of IT in automobiles, with the advent of the ubiquitous network era, systems that connect automobiles with wireless networks, such as those that use communication networks using IC card information, will be released sequentially in the future. It is predicted.

  As a conventional system for associating an automobile with an IC card, for example, there is an ETC (automatic toll collection) system on a toll road. This ETC system is composed of an IC card possessed by each user, a vehicle-mounted device fixedly mounted for each vehicle, and a roadside device installed at each toll gate. The IC card and the roadside device are the vehicle-mounted device. To communicate via. In this ETC system, a user inserts an IC card possessed by the user into the vehicle-mounted device mounted on the vehicle when the vehicle is boarded. When the vehicle passes through the toll gate in a non-stop manner, the roadside device installed at the toll gate charges a fee to the IC card inserted in the on-board device mounted on the vehicle passing through the toll gate. In this case, it is necessary to perform authentication between the IC card that performs electronic settlement processing and the roadside device.

Such authentication includes mutual authentication between the IC card and the vehicle-mounted device, transfer of authentication data for the IC card roadside device from the IC card to the vehicle-mounted device, mutual authentication between the vehicle-mounted device and the roadside device, An information system is disclosed in which authentication data for the roadside device of the IC card from the device to the roadside device and authentication of the IC card using the transferred authentication data by the roadside device are performed (for example, the following) Patent Document 1).

  Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail based on preferred embodiments shown in the drawings. FIG. 1 is a system diagram showing a schematic configuration of an embodiment of an automobile control system according to the present invention. In FIG. 1, an IC card reader 102 that reads the driving license data when the driving license 101 is inserted is mounted on the automobile 103, and an information terminal 104 separated from the automobile 103 is connected via the communication network 105. The vehicle 103 is configured to be accessible. In the driver's license 101, driver's license information and information related thereto are written as driver's license data. When the IC card reader 102 reads the driving license data and compares the read driving license data with the authentication data registered in advance and stored therein, all of the authentication data is included in the driving license data. It is configured to output a signal that enables the automobile 103 to travel. For registration of authentication data, a key input type generally known input device can be used. The information terminal 104 accesses the automobile 103 via the communication network 105 to give priority to the output signal of the IC card reader 102 and to enable the automobile operation and to lock the automobile operation. It can be set to any of these.

  FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing a detailed configuration of the automobile control system shown in FIG. In FIG. 2, an IC card reader 102 reads the driving license data of the IC chip 201 built in the driving license 101, and recognizes the read driving license data as verification target data, and driving license data. Among them, the authentication data storage means 203 storing the data selected and registered as appropriate by the person holding the driver's license, the authentication data stored in the authentication data storage means 203 is read, and the authentication data and information Based on the comparison result of the comparison unit 204 comparing the data recognized by the recognition unit 202 as the verification target data, and when all the authentication data is included in the driver's license data, It is determined that the driver's license can be used and an appropriate signal is output, and all of the authentication data And determined not to be the human driver's license can be properly used a car 103 when not included in the driver's data and a determination unit 205 for outputting the improper signals. Note that authentication data storage means 203 can register authentication data of a plurality of persons, such as when the automobile 103 is used by a plurality of family members.

  A control means 206 composed of, for example, an electronic switch is connected to the output end of the IC card reader 102, that is, the output end of the determination means 205. The control means 206 sets the engine operating means 207 to an operating state (engine operation) when an appropriate signal is output from the determining means 205, and controls the operation of the engine operating means 207 when an inappropriate signal is output from the determining means 205. It is switched to lock (the engine operation is locked). In addition, the automobile 103 controls a permission signal and a permission signal corresponding to an appropriate signal and an inappropriate signal output from the IC card reader 102 based on a signal obtained through the communication network 105. A communication means B210 is provided in addition to the means 206. The control unit 206 controls the engine operation unit 207 with priority over the appropriate signal and the improper signal applied from the IC card reader 102 over the permission signal and the non-permitted signal applied from the communication unit B210. On the other hand, the information terminal 104 connected via the communication network 105 is, for example, a mobile phone or a personal computer, and includes an input unit 208 and a communication unit A209.

  Next, operation | movement of one Embodiment of the motor vehicle control system comprised as mentioned above is demonstrated below. The driver's license 101 incorporates an IC chip 201, and the driver's license information and information related thereto are written in the IC chip 201 as driver's license data. The driver's license information is information that can be visually recognized on the ticket surface, and the related information includes personal information such as a permanent address, data such as address change, and driving violation history information. When the driver's license 101 is inserted into the IC card reader 102, the information recognition means 202 reads the driver's license data written in the IC chip 201, and then recognizes the read driver's license data as verification target data. The authentication data storage means 203 stores authentication data registered by a person who can use the car properly, such as a person who owns the car 103 or his family. This authentication data may be only the driver's license information of the driver's license data, or it may be a part of the relevant information added to the driver's license information. In short, the person who can use the car properly May be data in which at least a part is selected from the driver's license data. The comparison unit 204 reads the authentication data stored in the authentication data storage unit 203, and then sequentially compares the read authentication data with the driver's license data recognized as a verification target by the information recognition unit 202. That is, for each authentication data stored in the authentication data storage means 203, it is determined whether or not the same data as that data exists in the driver's license data recognized as the verification target. When all of the authentication data is included in the driver's license data, the determination unit 205 determines that the person can properly use the automobile 103 and outputs an appropriate signal, and all of the authentication data is included in the driver's license data. If not, it is determined that the person who can use the automobile 103 properly is not output, and an inappropriate signal is output. The control means 206 operates the engine operating means 207 when an appropriate signal is applied, and locks the operation of the engine operating means 207 when an inappropriate signal is applied.

  On the other hand, when a person who owns the car 103 or a person who is permitted to use the car 103 forgets to remove the driver's license 101 from the IC card reader 102 after driving, another person can drive. In such a case, it is necessary to lock the engine operation so that it cannot be operated. On the contrary, when the automobile 103 is lent to a person who has not registered the password data, it is necessary to be able to drive the automobile 103 without registering the password data. In such a case, using the input means 208 of the information terminal 104, a communication signal A209, a communication network 105, and a communication means are sent to the disabling signal for locking the operation of the automobile 103 and the enabling signal for enabling the operation of the automobile 103. It is added to the control means 206 via B210. The control means 206 gives priority to the disapproval signal or permission signal applied from the communication means B210 over the signal output from the IC card reader 102, and locks the operation of the engine operation means 207 when the disapproval signal is applied. When the permission signal is applied, the engine operating means 207 is operated.

  In this way, the automobile 103 is put into an operating state when all of the authentication data stored in the authentication data storage means 203 is included in the driving license data recognized by the information recognition means 202, and otherwise the automobile 103 The vehicle 103 associated with the driving license data of the specific driver's license can be driven only by a person who possesses the specific driver's license, and other people cannot drive the vehicle. Can be. Further, by controlling the output state of the control means 206 in preference to the output of the IC card reader 102 via the communication network 105, either the state where the engine operating means 207 is operated or the state where the operation is locked is selected. You can also set the state.

By the way, the function of the IC card reader 102 and the function of the control means 206 are realized by cooperation of hardware resources such as a CPU, RAM, ROM, storage device, I / O equipped electrical information device, computer, server and the like. be able to. FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing an example of a processing procedure when these functions are given to a computer, for example. Hereinafter, a specific processing procedure will be described with reference to FIG.
First, when the driver's license 101 is inserted into the IC card reader 102 in step S01, the driver's license data written in the IC chip 201 is read in step S02. Next, in step S03, the driving license data is recognized as authentication target data. In step S04, authentication data registered in advance is read, and in step S05, the recognized data to be authenticated (driver's license data) is compared with the authentication data. Next, in step S06, it is determined whether or not all of the authentication data exists in the driver's license data. If it exists, it is determined that the person can be used properly and the process proceeds to S07. If not, the process ends. To do. In S07, a signal for operating the automobile is output. In step S08, the engine of the automobile 103 is in an operating state, and the process ends here.

  On the other hand, in order to make it possible to drive the vehicle 103 from the outside with the information terminal 104 or to make it impossible to drive the vehicle 103, the vehicle 103 is accessed by the input means 208 of the information terminal 104 in step S09, and in the next step S10. The enabling signal or non-permitting signal is added by the communication means B210, and then the processing in step S07 and thereafter is executed.

  In this way, a person who possesses a specific driver's license by recording the car control program for executing the processing shown in the flowchart of FIG. 3 on the hard disk or setting it up or downloading it via the Internet. It is possible to easily construct an automobile control system that can only be driven by other people and that no other person can drive.

  Further, by mounting the above-described vehicle control system on a vehicle, only a person who has a specific driver's license can drive, and a vehicle is provided that prevents other people from driving.

  In the above-described embodiment, the control unit 206 puts the engine in an operating state or locks the engine operation. Instead, the electric system for operating the engine is turned on or off. Even if the operation of the automobile is enabled or the operation of the automobile is locked, the same effect as described above can be obtained.

  As described above, according to the present invention, the driver's license data written in the driver's license is read, and the read driver's license data is compared with the authentication data stored in advance. When it is included in the driver's license data, it outputs an appropriate signal indicating that it is a person who can use the car properly, and when all of the authentication data is not included in the driver's license data, it is not a person who can use the car properly An IC card reader that outputs a signal, and a control means that enables the operation of the automobile when an appropriate signal is output from the IC card reader and locks the operation of the automobile when an inappropriate signal is output from the IC card reader. By providing the vehicle associated with the driving license data of the specific driving license with the built-in IC chip, the specific driving license Only the person who owns it can drive, and other people can not drive, and also drive with a driver's license uncarried and receive penalties such as violation of the Road Traffic Law due to unlicensed driving Is useful as an automobile control system.
