  • Patent number: 11327478
    Abstract: A program stored in a mobile terminal including a computer, a camera, a display, and a communication device, the program being configured to operate an operation target vehicle from outside with use of the mobile terminal, the operation target vehicle being registered in advance, the program causing the computer to execute: a step of estimating a distance from the mobile terminal to the operation target vehicle based on a size of an image of the operation target vehicle included in a photographed image of the camera; a step of determining whether or not the estimated distance is less than a prescribed threshold; a step of receiving an operation instruction with respect to the operation target vehicle when the estimated distance is less than the threshold; and a step of causing the communication device to output a signal instructing an operation in response to the received operation instruction.

  • Patent number: 11158946
    Abstract: A dual loop antenna is provided which can clearly set a boundary of a communication area and create a well-balanced communication area. A dual loop antenna includes a first loop antenna and a second loop antenna. The first loop antenna and the second loop antenna are formed on an x-y plane. The center of the first loop antenna and the center of the second loop antenna are located at positions on an x-axis at the same distance from the point of origin being the center of the dual loop antenna. A phase difference between currents flowing on the first loop antenna and the second loop antenna, respectively, is a value in a range from 130 degrees to 230 degrees.

  • Patent number: 10999718
    Abstract: A vehicle function control device that controls functions of a vehicle includes an electronic control unit configured to determine whether there is a terminal device performing communication with an in-vehicle communication device around the in-vehicle communication device using the in-vehicle communication device, when determination is made that there is the terminal device performing communication with the in-vehicle communication device around the in-vehicle communication device, determine whether a distance between the in-vehicle communication device and the terminal device is within a predetermined range, and control execution of a specific function of the vehicle based on a determination result.

  • Publication number: 20210061223
    Abstract: A vehicle operation device includes memory and a processor. The processor is configured to store tokens received from a server in the memory to be used for authentication to a vehicle. When an operation of the vehicle is performed in a state in which communication with the server is possible, a token is used to conduct authentication to the vehicle. When a predetermined operation of the vehicle is performed in a state in which communication with the server is interrupted, authentication to the vehicle is conducted without using a token.

  • Patent number: 10618497
    Abstract: A server receives first identification information unique to a user of a vehicle from a first terminal device, receives second identification information unique to a user of a second terminal device from the second terminal device, generates second authentication information based on the first identification information, the second identification information, and first authentication information stored in a first storage unit, and transmits the second authentication information to the second terminal device. A vehicle verifies authenticity of the second authentication information acquired from the second terminal device based on the first identification information and the second identification information acquired from the second terminal device, and the first authentication information stored in a second storage unit, and in a case where authenticity is confirmed, unlocks a storage.
