Vehicle, judging method, and non-transitory, computer-readable recording medium on which computer program is recorded
A vehicle includes a memory and a processor coupled to the memory. The processor is configured to determine whether or not a communication interface is malfunctioning, the communication interface being configured to perform communication for confirming that a device, which holds a digital key for activation, is inside a vehicle cabin, and in a case in which it is determined that the communication interface is malfunctioning, perform processing that enables activation based on a result of authentication of the device.
1. A device equipped with a functionality of a digital key for starting a vehicle, the device comprising:
a processor;
a memory for storing instructions executable by the processor, and
a display,
wherein the processor is configured to:
determine whether a communication interface of the vehicle for communicating with the device has failed;
in response to determining that the communication interface of the vehicle has failed, cause the display to display a first screen prompting user authentication for a user of the vehicle;
determine whether an authentication process of the authentication of the user is successful; and
in response to determining that the authentication process is successful, cause the display to display a second screen indicating to the user of the vehicle that the vehicle can be started.
2. The device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to accept a request to re-execute the authentication process for the user of the vehicle in a case in which the vehicle is not started by the user of the vehicle within a predetermined time after the authentication process is successful, and, in response to the request, cause the display to display a third screen for executing the authentication process.
3. The device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to cause the display to display a first selection part that, when selected by the user, causes the authentication process to be re-executed, and a second selection part that, when selected by the user, does not execute the authentication process.
4. A display control method for a device equipped with a display and a functionality of a digital key for starting a vehicle, comprising:
determining whether a communication interface of the vehicle for communicating with the device has failed;
in response to determining that the communication interface of the vehicle has failed, causing the display of the device to display a first screen prompting user authentication for a user of the vehicle;
determine whether an authentication process of the authentication of the user is successful; and
in response to determining that the authentication process is successful, causing the display to display a second screen indicating to the user of the vehicle that the vehicle can be started.
5. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that, when executed by a device equipped with a display and a functionality of a digital key for starting a vehicle, cause the device to:
determine whether a communication interface of the vehicle for communicating with the device has failed;
in response to determining that the communication interface of the vehicle has failed, cause the display of the device to display a first screen prompting user authentication for a user of the vehicle;
determine whether an authentication process of the authentication of the user is successful; and
in response to determining that the authentication process is successful, cause the display to display a second screen indicating to the user of the vehicle that the vehicle can be started.
