ICAR research group: An authentication platform on Extended Vehicle architecture

Person in Charge of the Project : Yasunobu ToyotaToday, not only vehicle manufacturers (VM) but also 3rd parties, developers create emerging services utilizing vehicle data. However, VM tends to resist to third-party applications that access the vehicle information remotely from a security standpoint. ISO TC 22 WG 6 organized by automobile manufacturer proposes the concept of "Extended Vehicle" (ExVe) which has a cloud type interface with access control by VM. In the current ExVe standards, third-party vendors are reviewed in accordance with the policy for each VM. Therefore, vendors may need to make applications for each manufacturer. This research propose an application certification authority (ExVe-CA) independent of a specific vendor and verify the flow of application review, authentication and authorization.

ICAR research group: Evaluation of driving operation by drift angle

Person in Charge of the Project : Yusuke SuzukiWhen the car is in sport driving, it is essential for cornering to run out of tire performance at each corner and run fast. However, it is extremely difficult for a person who does not have much experience in driving to see the maximum value of the cornering force. In this exhibition, we will present an application to evaluate the driving operation in real time by using the data of drift angle, which leads to improvement of driver's skill. It calculates the moving direction based on the GPS position information and uses the difference from the heading of the vehicle as the drift angle. At the present time, I experiment and improve it repeatedly to verify the accuracy of it.

ICAR research group: Replacement of physical key with electronic lock by wireless communication of iPhone

Person in Charge of the Project : Yuta FukagawaRecently, IoT devices attract attention. Meanwhile, various physical tools are replaced electronically, improving the convenience of life with simpler operation. The current situation is that there are no killer apps, so IoT devices aren't used in general. Therefore, I created systems could be an infrastructure for enabling manipulating various household appliances from mobile terminals using wireless communication. This time, with using iPhones, I built systems that unlocks the car just by the user approaching the car and bike, and locks when the user leaves. I share the degree of improvement in convenience and the findings on problems and security.
