Specification

Description:TECHNICAL FIELD
[001] This disclosure relates generally to vehicle security, and more particularly to a method and a system for authorizing access to a vehicle

BACKGROUND
[002] Assuring security of the vehicle is an utmost requirement in today’s vehicles. With increasing instances of vehicle thefts, vehicle safety therefore becomes a matter of prime importance. It is generally believed that the increase in vehicle thefts is due to the lack of proper parking spaces in residential areas and lack of availability of sophisticated security devices.
[003] Vehicle management and vehicle security is moving towards full or partial autonomy and self-reliant techniques. While this does increase the overall performance of the vehicle with improved vehicle dynamics, however, at the same time also makes the security system of the vehicles vulnerable to various external means of corruption or hacks.

SUMMARY

Upon receiving, the biometric identity associated with the first user may be stored in a database. The method may further include receiving, via an interface associated with the authorizing device, a selection, from an administrator user, of the biometric identity associated with the first user. The method may further include receiving, via the interface device, from the administrator user, an action input for performing an action corresponding to the selected biometric identity associated with the first user. The action may be one of: an enrolling of the selected biometric identity associated with the first user and a deletion of the selected biometric identity associated with the first user. The method may further include, based on enrolling, categorizing the selected biometric identity associated with the first user, in an enrolled user category. Each biometric identity categorized in the enrolled user category may be assigned an access-right for accessing the vehicle. The method may further include, based on deletion, performing one of: removing the selected biometric identity associated with the first user from the database or disabling access-right for accessing the vehicle for the selected biometric identity associated with the first user.
[005] A system for authorizing access to a vehicle is disclosed. The system may include a biometric sensor configured to obtain a biometric identity associated with a user and an interface device configured to receive a user input. The system may further include a processor communicatively coupled with the biometric sensor and the interface device and a memory communicatively coupled with the processor. The memory stores processor-executable instructions, which on execution by the processor, cause the processor to receive a biometric identity associated with a first user from the biometric sensor. Upon receiving, the biometric identity associated with the first user may be stored in a database. The processor-executable instructions may further cause the processor to receive, via the interface device, a selection, from an administrator user, of the biometric identity associated with the first user. The processor-executable instructions may further cause the processor to receive, via the interface device, from the administrator user, an action input for performing an action corresponding to the selected biometric identity associated with the first user. The action may be one of: an enrolling of the selected biometric identity associated with the first user and a deletion of the selected biometric identity associated with the first user. The processor-executable instructions may further cause the processor to, based on enrolling, categorize the selected biometric identity associated with the first user, in an enrolled user category. Each biometric identity categorized in the enrolled user category may be assigned an access-right for accessing the vehicle. The processor-executable instructions may further cause the processor to, based on deletion, perform one of: removing the selected biometric identity associated with the first user from the database or disabling access-right for accessing the vehicle for the selected biometric identity associated with the first user.
[006] A graphical user interface (GUI) client for authorizing access to a vehicle is disclosed. The GUI client may be configured to: receive a selection, from an administrator user, of a biometric identity associated with a first user. The biometric identity associated with the first user may be stored in a database.

[008] It is to be understood that both the foregoing general description and the following detailed description are exemplary and explanatory only and are not restrictive of the invention, as claimed.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
[009] The accompanying drawings, which are incorporated in and constitute a part of this disclosure, illustrate exemplary embodiments and, together with the description, explain the disclosed principles.
[010] FIG. 1 illustrates a block diagram of a system for authorizing access to a vehicle, in accordance with some embodiments of the present disclosure.
[011] FIG. 2 illustrates a functional block diagram of an authorizing device, in accordance with some embodiments of the present disclosure.
[012] FIGs. 3A-3B illustrate schematic diagrams of an interface device, in accordance with some embodiments.
[013] FIG. 4 illustrates flowchart of a method of authorizing access to a vehicle, in accordance with some embodiments of the present disclosure.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[014] Exemplary embodiments are described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Wherever convenient, the same reference numbers are used throughout the drawings to refer to the same or like parts. While examples and features of disclosed principles are described herein, modifications, adaptations, and other implementations are possible without departing from the spirit and scope of the disclosed embodiments. It is intended that the following detailed description be considered as exemplary only, with the true scope and spirit being indicated by the following claims. Additional illustrative embodiments are listed below.
[015] The present disclosure provides for a fingerprint-based security system for vehicles by interfacing a fingerprint sensor along with a processor. A user can start the vehicle, but only upon fingerprint authentication, can the person put the vehicle into motion. The fingerprint sensor is connected in series with the ignition switch. Further, along with fingerprint authorization, an authorized user can enroll or delete any fingerprint according to his will. The fingerprint authentication may be performed using a fingerprint module R307 sensor. Further, a fingerprint enrolment module adds and stores the fingerprints of all the users who are authorized to drive the vehicle. To facilitate enrolment, the fingerprint module R307 sensor include a microswitch with five buttons – an enrolling button, a deletion button, an up-scrolling button, a down-scrolling button, and a reset button.
[016] Before a user can run the vehicle, his/her fingerprint is matched against the fingerprint in the database. The fingerprint sensor module R307 sends the signals to the microcontroller (e.g. ATtmega328 of an Arduino Uno board). The microcontroller then handles user authentication. Once the scanned fingerprint matches with the one stored in the database, the microcontroller sends the desired signal to put the vehicle in motion. A display screen (e.g. a LCD display) is used, which displays the status of the system. It also displays when the fingerprints are being added, deleted or a successful authentication.
[017] Referring now to FIG. 1, a block diagram of a system 100 for authorizing access to a vehicle is illustrated, in accordance with some embodiments of the present disclosure. The 100 may include an authorizing device 102. The authorizing device 102 may be a computing device having data processing capability. In particular, the authorizing device 102 may have capability for performing authorizing access to vehicle to a user. Examples of the authorizing device 102 may include, but are not limited to a desktop, a laptop, a notebook, a netbook, a tablet, a smartphone, a mobile phone, an application server, a web server, or the like. In some example embodiments, the authorizing device 102 may be a cloud-based computing system.
[018] The system 100 may further include a data storage 104. For example, the data storage 104 may store various types of data required by the authorizing device 102.

The communication network 108 may be a wired or a wireless network and the examples may include, but are not limited to the Internet, Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN), Wi-Fi, Long Term Evolution (LTE), Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX), and General Packet Radio Service (GPRS).
[019] As will be described in greater detail in conjunction with FIG. 2 to FIG. 4, in order to authorize access to the vehicle, the authorizing device 102 may receive a biometric identity associated with a first user, via a biometric sensor 116. Upon receiving the, the biometric identity associated with the first user may be stored in the database 104 (also referred to as data storage 104 in this disclosure). The authorizing device 102 may further receive, via an interface associated with the authorizing device, a selection, from an administrator user, of the biometric identity associated with the first user. The authorizing device 102 may further receive, via the interface device, from the administrator user, an action input for performing an action corresponding to the selected biometric identity associated with the first user. The action may be one of an enrolling of the selected biometric identity associated with the first user and a deletion of the selected biometric identity associated with the first user. The authorizing device 102 may further categorize the selected biometric identity associated with the first user, in an enrolled user category, based on enrolling. Each biometric identity categorized in the enrolled user category may be assigned an access-right for accessing the vehicle. Further, based on deletion, the authorizing device 102 may delete or remove the selected biometric identity associated with the first user from the database 104.
[020] In order to perform the above-discussed functionalities, the authorizing device 102 may include a processor 110 and a memory 112. The memory 112 may store instructions that, when executed by the processor 110, cause the processor 110 to perform testing of the ventilators, as discussed in greater detail in FIG. 2 to FIG. 4. The memory 112 may be a non-volatile memory or a volatile memory. Examples of the non-volatile memory may include, but are not limited to, a flash memory, a Read Only Memory (ROM), a Programmable ROM (PROM), Erasable PROM (EPROM), and Electrically EPROM (EEPROM) memory. Examples of volatile memory may include, but are not limited to, Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM), and Static Random-Access memory (SRAM). The memory 112 may also store various data (e.g. test data, test results data, etc.) that may be captured, processed, and/or required by the system 100.
[021] The authorizing device 102 may further include one or more input/output devices (also referred to as interface device in this disclosure) 114 through which the authorizing device 102 may interact with a user and vice versa. By way of an example and as mentioned above, the input/output device 114 may be used to receive the inputs from the selection and the action input from the authorized user, display a result of an action performed in response to the action input, display a status of a biometric identity, etc. as will be discussed later. The system 100 may interact with one or more external devices 106 over the communication network 108 for sending or receiving various data. Examples of the one or more external devices 106 may include, but are not limited to a remote server, a digital device, or another computing system.
[022] As mentioned above, the system 100 may further include the biometric sensor 116 that may receive a biometric identity associated with a first user. The authorizing device 102 may be communicatively coupled to the biometric sensor 116 via the communication network 108.
[023] Referring now to FIG. 2, a functional block diagram of the authorizing device 102 for authorizing access to the vehicle is illustrated, in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure. In some embodiments, the authorizing device 102 may include a biometric identity receiving module 202, a selection receiving module 204, an action input receiving module 206, an action performing module 208, a comparison module 210, and an access providing module 212.
[024] The biometric identity receiving module 202 may be communicatively coupled with the biometric sensor 116 and may receive a biometric identity associated with a first user, via the biometric sensor 116. Upon receiving, the biometric identity associated with the first user may be stored in the database 104. It should be noted that the biometric identity may be one of a fingerprint, a retina scan, a facial identity, and voice identity associated with the first user. Further, it should be noted that the first user may be a user separate from an administrator user of the vehicle. For example, the administrator user of the vehicle may be an owner of the vehicle or any other person having authorization to enroll new users who can be provided access to drive or use the vehicle in any other way possible. As such, the biometric sensor may be connected in series with the ignition switch of the vehicle, and only when the authorized user is detected by the biometric sensor, the authorized user is allowed to access the vehicle. Further, for example, the enrolled user may have the access right that allow the enrolled user to open and close the doors of the vehicle, even if not drive the vehicle. The biometric identity receiving module 202 may be further configured to receive a biometric identity associated with a new user, via the biometric sensor 116, as will be explained later in the present disclosure.
[025] The selection receiving module 204 may be communicatively coupled with the Input/Output Device 114 (i.e. the interface device 114), and may receive a selection from an administrator user, of the biometric identity associated with the first user. As mentioned above, the biometric identity associated with the first user may be stored in the database 104. The administrator user may want to perform an action on the biometric identity associated with the first user, for example, an action of enrolling or deleting the biometric identity associated with the first user. To this end, the administrator user may first locate the biometric identity associated with the first user, and the administrator user may do so by navigating across multiple biometric identities associated with multiple uses and stored in the database 104. The administrator user may navigate across the multiple biometric identities using the interface device 114. To this end, the interface device may include a plurality of buttons, for example, a first physical button configured for performing an action of scrolling up and a second physical button configured for performing an action of scrolling down. Once the administrator user has identified and located the biometric identity associated with the first user, the administrator user may select that biometric identity, using the interface device 114.
[026] Once the biometric identity associated with the first user is selected by the administrator user, the action input receiving module 206 may receive from the administrator user, via the interface device 114, an action input for performing an action corresponding to the selected biometric identity associated with the first user. For example, the action may an enrolling of the selected biometric identity associated with the first user or a deletion of the selected biometric identity associated with the first user. For example, in order to provide the action input, the interface device 114 may include a third physical button configured for performing an action of enrolling; and a fourth physical button configured for performing an action of deleting. As will be understood, each of the first, physical button, the second physical button, the third physical button, and the fourth physical button may be physical push-type buttons that the administrator user may be able to manipulate by pressing these physical buttons.
[027] The action performing module 208 may perform an action with respect to the selected biometric identity associated with the first user, based on the action input. For example, when the action is of enrolling, the action performing module 208 may categorize the selected biometric identity associated with the first user, in an enrolled user category. Each biometric identity categorized in the enrolled user category may be assigned an access-right for accessing the vehicle. As such, the upon enrolling, the biometric identity associated with the first user is provided the access-right for accessing the vehicle. Further, when the action input is of deletion, the action performing module 208 may perform one of the two deletion actions. A first deletion action may be removing the selected biometric identity associated with the first user from the database. A second deletion action may be disabling access-right for accessing the vehicle for the selected biometric identity associated with the first user.
[028] The biometric identity receiving module 202 may further receive a biometric identity associated with a new user, via the biometric sensor 116. The comparison module 210 may compare the biometric identity associated with the new user with each biometric identity categorized in the enrolled user category to determine whether the biometric identity associated with the new user matches with a biometric identity categorized in the enrolled user category. Once it is determined that the biometric identity associated with the new user matches with a biometric identity categorized in the enrolled user category, the access providing module 212 may provide access to the vehicle to the new user.
[029] Referring now to FIG. 3A, a schematic diagram of an interface device 300 for authorizing access to a vehicle is illustrated, in accordance with some embodiments of the present disclosure. In some embodiments, the interface device 300 may be implemented in the vehicle, for example, on a dashboard of the vehicle. Alternately, the interface device 300 may be implemented in a physical key of the vehicle. Further, in some alternate embodiments, the interface device 300 may be implemented in a remote device connected to the vehicle over a communication network, the communication network being one of Internet connection, a local area network (LAN), Bluetooth, WiFi, etc.
[030] The interface device 300 may include a display screen 302 and a plurality of physical buttons. For example, the plurality of physical buttons may include a first physical button 304, a second physical button 306, a third physical button 308, and a fourth physical button 310. The first physical button 304 may be configured for performing an action of scrolling up. The second physical button 306 may be configured for performing an action of scrolling down. As mentioned above, the administrator user may want to perform an action on the biometric identity associated with the first user, for example, an action of enrolling or deleting the biometric identity associated with the first user. To this end, the administrator user may first locate the biometric identity associated with the first user, and the administrator user may do so by navigating across multiple biometric identities associated with multiple uses and stored in the database 104. The administrator user may navigate across the multiple biometric identities using the the first physical button and the second physical button configured. Once the administrator user has identified and located the biometric identity associated with the first user, the administrator user may select that biometric identity, using the interface device 114.
[031] Once the biometric identity associated with the first user is selected by the administrator user, the administrator user may provide an action input for performing an action corresponding to the selected biometric identity associated with the first user. For example, the action may an enrolling of the selected biometric identity associated with the first user or a deletion of the selected biometric identity associated with the first user. For example, the action input may be provided using the third physical button 308 or the fourth physical button 310. Each of the first, physical button 304, the second physical button 306, the third physical button 308, and the fourth physical button 310 may be physical push-type buttons that the administrator user may be able to manipulate by pressing these physical buttons. Further, as mentioned above, when action input is for the action of enrolling, the selected biometric identity associated with the first user may be enrolled in an enrolled user category. Each biometric identity categorized in the enrolled user category may be assigned an access-right for accessing the vehicle. Further, when the action input is of deletion, one of the two deletion actions may be performed. The first deletion action may be removing the selected biometric identity associated with the first user from the database, and the second deletion action may be disabling access-right for accessing the vehicle for the selected biometric identity associated with the first user. The display screen 302 may display a result corresponding to the biometric identity associated with the first user, in response to the action.
[032] In some embodiments, the interface device 300 may further include a fifth physical button 312 which may be configured for performing an action of resetting. Upon resetting, each biometric identity stored in the database may be deleted. Alternately, upon resetting, each biometric identity assigned with the access-rights may be disabled, so as to remove each biometric identity categorized in the enrolled user category.
[033] Referring now to FIG. 3B, another schematic diagram of the interface device 300 for authorizing access to a vehicle is illustrated, in accordance with some embodiments of the present disclosure. As mentioned above, the interface device 300 includes the display screen 302, the first physical button 304 configured for performing an action of scrolling up, the second physical button 306 configured for performing an action of scrolling down, the third physical button 308 configured for performing an action of enrolling, the fourth physical button 310 configured for performing an action of deleting, and the processor 110. The processor 110 is communicatively coupled with the display screen 302, the first physical button 304, the second physical button 306, the third physical button 308, and the fourth physical button 310. The interface device 300 may further include a first LED lights 314A, for example, for indicating a successful matching of the biometric identity associated with the new user with a biometric identity categorized in the enrolled user category, and therefore providing access to the vehicle to the new user. Similarly, a second LED lights 314B, for example, for indicating a unsuccessful matching of the biometric identity associated with the new user with a biometric identity categorized in the enrolled user category, and therefore, denying of the access to the vehicle to the new user.
[034] It should be noted that instead of the above interface device 300, a graphical user interface (GUI) may be implemented in a computing device implementing its own interface like that of a touchscreen, keyboard, mouse, voice-based interface, etc. Further, this computing device may implement a GUI client, in accordance with some embodiments of the present disclosure.
[035] The GUI client may be configured to receive a selection, from an administrator user, of a biometric identity associated with a first user. The biometric identity associated with the first user may be stored in the database 104. The GUI client may be further configured to receive, from the administrator user, an action input for performing an action corresponding to the selected biometric identity associated with the first user. The action may be one of: an enrolling of the selected biometric identity associated with the first user and a deletion of the selected biometric identity associated with the first user. Based on enrolling, the selected biometric identity associated with the first user may be categorized in an enrolled user category. Further, each biometric identity categorized in the enrolled user category may be assigned an access-right for accessing the vehicle. Furthermore, based on deletion, the selected biometric identity associated with the first user may be removed from the database. The GUI client may be further configured to display a result corresponding to the biometric identity associated with the first user, in response to the action.
[036] Referring now to FIG. 4, a flowchart of a method 400 of authorizing access to a vehicle is illustrated, in accordance with some embodiments. The method 400 may be performed by the authorizing device 102, as discussed above.
[037] At step 402, a biometric identity associated with a first user may be received, for example, via the biometric sensor 116. For example, the biometric identity may be one of a fingerprint, a retina scan, a facial identity, and voice identity. Upon receiving, the biometric identity associated with the first user may be stored in database 104.
[038] At step 404, a selection may be received, from an administrator user, of the biometric identity associated with the first user. The selection may be received via an interface (e.g. via the GUI client) associated with the authorizing device or via the interface device 300. As such, the interface associated with the authorizing device may be a graphical user interface (GUI), a tangible user interface, or a touch-based user interface.
[039] At step 406, an action input may be received from the administrator user, for performing an action corresponding to the selected biometric identity associated with the first user. The action input may also be received via the interface (e.g. via the GUI client) associated with the authorizing device or via the interface device 300. The action may be one of an enrolling of the selected biometric identity associated with the first user and a deletion of the selected biometric identity associated with the first user.
[040] At step 408, based on enrolling, the selected biometric identity associated with the first user may be categorized, in an enrolled user category. Each biometric identity categorized in the enrolled user category is assigned an access-right for accessing the vehicle.
[041] Further, at step 410, based on deletion, on of the steps 410A and 410B may be performed. At step 410A, the selected biometric identity associated with the first user may be removed from the database. At step 410B, access-right for accessing the vehicle for the selected biometric identity associated with the first user may be disabled.
[042] Additionally, at step 412, a biometric identity associated with a new user may be received, via the biometric sensor 116. At step 414, the biometric identity associated with the new user may be compared with each biometric identity categorized in the enrolled user category to determine whether the biometric identity associated with the new user matches with a biometric identity categorized in the enrolled user category. If there is a match, at step 416, access to the vehicle may be provided to the new user.
