Abstract

A system for providing a seamless vehicle care at a vehicle care site, the system vehicle care devices, edge devices operatively connected to vehicle care devices, and a control module connected to edge devices configured to receive a user input containing a vehicle care command specify a vehicle care device identifier associated with a vehicle care device and a user authentication datum, validate the vehicle care command based on the user authentication datum using a validation module connected to a data store, generate a validation datum according to the validation of the vehicle care command, wherein generating the validation datum includes identifying an edge based on the vehicle care device identifier, and transmit the validation datum to the edge device configured to active the vehicle care device as a function of the validation datum.

Claims (53)

1. A system for providing a seamless vehicle care at a vehicle care site, wherein the system comprises:

a plurality of vehicle care devices;

a plurality of edge devices operatively connected to the plurality of vehicle care devices; and

a control module communicatively connected to the plurality of edge devices, wherein the control module is configured to:

receive a user input from a user using a user device, wherein the user input comprises:

a vehicle care command, wherein the vehicle care command comprises:

at least a vehicle care device identifier associated with at least a vehicle care device of the plurality of vehicle care devices, wherein the vehicle care device identifier is generated and assigned, by the control module, to each vehicle care device of the plurality of vehicle care devices;

at least a vehicle care parameter, wherein activating the at least a vehicle care device comprises initiating a vehicle care as a function of the at least a vehicle care parameter using the at least a vehicle care device; and

at least a user authentication datum associated with the user,

wherein receiving the user input further comprises:

scanning, using a token reader, the at least a user authentication datum; and

generating a token based on the at least a user authentication datum;

validate the vehicle care command as a function of the at least a user authentication datum based on the token using a validation module connected to a data store, wherein validating the vehicle care command comprises:

verifying the at least a vehicle care device identifier against a plurality of vehicle care device data stored in the data store; and

verifying the token of the at least a user authentication datum against a plurality of user profiles stored in the data store;

generate a validation datum as a function of the validation of the vehicle care command, wherein generating the validation datum comprises:

identifying at least an edge device from the plurality of edge devices as a function of the verified vehicle care device identifier; and

transmit the validation datum to the at least an edge device of the plurality of edge devices; and

activate the at least a vehicle care device as a function of the validation datum.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the user input comprises a vehicle care execution datum.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the at least a user authentication datum comprises a token containing a QR code.

4. The system of claim 1 , where the at least a user authentication datum comprises membership data.

5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the data store comprises a distributed data storage system configured to:

partition the plurality of vehicle care device data and the plurality of user profiles into a plurality of data shards; and

store the plurality of data shards across the plurality of edge devices.

6. The system of claim 2 , wherein validating the vehicle care command comprises validating the vehicle care command as a function of the vehicle care execution datum.

7. The system of claim 2 , wherein generating the validation datum comprises:

executing a vehicle care execution protocol as a function of the validation of the vehicle care execution datum.

8. A method for providing a seamless vehicle care at a vehicle care site, wherein the method comprises:

receiving, by a control module communicatively connected to a plurality of edge devices operatively connected to a plurality of vehicle care devices, a user input from a user using a user device, wherein the user input comprises:

a vehicle care command, wherein the vehicle care command comprises:

at least a vehicle care device identifier associated with at least a vehicle care device of the plurality of vehicle care devices, wherein the vehicle care device identifier is generated and assigned, by the control module, to each vehicle care device of the plurality of vehicle care devices;

at least a vehicle care parameter, wherein activating the at least a vehicle care device comprises initiating a vehicle care as a function of the at least a vehicle care parameter using the at least a vehicle care device; and

at least a user authentication datum associated with the user;

wherein receiving the user input further comprises:

scanning, using a token reader, the at least a user authentication datum; and

generating a token based on the at least a user authentication datum;

validating, by the control module, the vehicle care command as a function of the at least a user authentication datum based on the token using a validation module connected to a data store, wherein validating the vehicle care command comprises:

verifying the at least a vehicle care device identifier against a plurality of vehicle care device data stored in the data store; and

verifying the token of the at least a user authentication datum against a plurality of user profiles stored in the data store;

generating, by the control module, a validation datum as a function of the validation of the vehicle care command, wherein generating the validation datum comprises:

identifying at least an edge device from the plurality of edge devices as a function of the verified vehicle care device identifier; and

transmitting, by the control module, the validation datum to the at least an edge device of the plurality of edge devices; and

activating, by the control module, the at least a vehicle care device as a function of the validation datum.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the user input comprises a vehicle care execution datum.

10. The method of claim 8 , wherein the at least a user authentication datum comprises a token containing a QR code.

11. The method of claim 8 , wherein the at least a user authentication datum comprises membership data.

12. The method of claim 8 , wherein the data store comprises a distributed data storage system configured to:

partition the plurality of vehicle care device data and the plurality of user profiles into a plurality of data shards; and

store the plurality of data shards across the plurality of edge devices.

13. The method of claim 9 , wherein validating the vehicle care command comprises validating the vehicle care command as a function of the vehicle care execution datum.

14. The method of claim 9 , wherein generating the validation datum comprises:

executing a vehicle care execution protocol as a function of the validation of the vehicle care execution datum.
