This invention describes a system that controls who can open specific parts of a vehicle, like the trunk or glovebox. When someone asks to open a compartment, the system checks if they are an authorized user by verifying their credentials through a central server. Based on this verification and how the vehicle is currently being used, it then decides what they are allowed to access and adjusts the vehicle's locks accordingly.
Why it matters: Since 2019, connected vehicle platforms and cloud-based access management systems have matured significantly. This makes integrating the required secure server communication and granular vehicle control more feasible and robust than when it was originally filed.
