An authentication and registration system is provided which can reduce a burden at the time of authentication and registration while ensuring security when a single apparatus is used to perform authentication and registration of identification information on another apparatus. In an authentication and registration system (), an authentication request signal is transmitted from a mobile terminal () to a registration server (). The registration server () transmits an operation command signal to the mobile terminal () and when the signal is received, a display () of the mobile terminal () displays operation sub-commands. When the sub-commands are executed through operations of switches () to (), an on-board controller () transmits an operating state signal indicating the execution to the registration server (). When the operating state signal indicates that the sub-commands are executed, the registration server () determines that authentication of the identification information succeeds.

Authentication and registration system

An authentication and registration system is provided which can reduce a burden at the time of authentication and registration while ensuring security when a single apparatus is used to perform authentication and registration of identification information on another apparatus. In an authentication and registration system (), an authentication request signal is transmitted from a mobile terminal () to a registration server (). When two sets of identification information VIN and IMSI received before and after the authentication request signal match each other, the registration server () transmits an authentication code signal to an on-board controller () so that an authentication code is displayed on a DA apparatus (). Thereafter, when an authentication code in an authentication code acknowledgement signal transmitted from the mobile terminal () matches the authentication code in the authentication code signal, the registration server () determines that authentication of the identification information succeeds.

A replenishment recommendation system () is provided with a recommendation generation trigger point computation unit () configured to compute a recommendation generation trigger point given as a remaining amount of energy that triggers an energy replenishment recommendation to the driver to replenish energy based on past remaining amounts stored in a storage unit, and a recommendation generation unit () configured to display a replenishment recommendation indication on a display unit when a current energy remaining amount of the vehicle has become equal to or less than the recommendation generation trigger point. The storage unit stores, as the past remaining amount, a remaining amount of energy of the vehicle when a replenishment intent switch () is operated by a driver.
