Abstract
A method for opening and/or using at least one vehicle may include receiving, by a mobile terminal, an identifier assigned to a target vehicle. The identifier may be transmitted to a server, and a key data set may be received from the server. The key data set and/or a code based on the key data set may be transmitted as a remote code to the target vehicle. The target vehicle may generate at least one local code after receiving the remote code, and may compare the remote code to the local code(s). The target vehicle may be opened and/or released, or a vehicle command may be executed if at least one of the local codes corresponds to the remote code.
Claims15
A method for opening and/or using at least one vehicle, comprising:
- a) receiving, by a mobile terminal, an identifier, which is assigned to a target vehicle;
- b) transmitting the identifier, via a mobile wireless network, to a server;
- c) receiving, by the mobile terminal, a key data set from the server;
- d) transmitting to the target vehicle the key data set and/or a code generated based on the key data set as a remote code via a direct connection and/or an ad hoc network between the target vehicle and the mobile terminal;
- e) receiving the remote code by the target vehicle;
- f) generating at least one local code by the target vehicle;
- g) comparing the remote code to the at least one local code by the target vehicle;
- h) opening and/or releasing the target vehicle and/or executing a vehicle command on the target vehicle if at least one of the local codes corresponds to the remote code.
A system for opening and/or using a vehicle, comprising:
- at least one server, which comprises a database, and which is designed to receive at least one identifier from at least one mobile terminal, wherein the server is designed to determine a target vehicle using the database and the identifier;
- and
- a vehicle, including the following:
- a storage unit;
- a vehicle communication unit which is designed to receive a key data set and/or a code generated based on the key data set as a remote code via a direct connection and/or via an ad hoc network;
- and
- a vehicle processing unit designed to generate a local code and to compare the remote code to the local code;
- wherein the vehicle processing unit is furthermore designed to open and/or release the vehicle and/or to execute a vehicle command if the remote code and the local code correspond.
