A Driver Identification Method for a Car Through a Wireless Communication

To prevent car thefts, we propose a driver identification method through a wireless communication using a smart phone and a system equipped with an NFC chip in a car. Driver identifications are carried out by approaching the driver’s NFC device to the NFC system in the car which does not require complicated systems to install the NFC in a car. For a theft case in which driver’s NFC code does not match to the registered, subsequent steps could be taken into action. In the proposed method, we can trace the stolen car by sending GPS information to the owner. The proposed method which does not require advanced technology to implement has high identification rates.
