SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR VEHICLE INTERIOR DETECTION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17888033 titled 'SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR VEHICLE INTERIOR DETECTION
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a system for detecting the interior of a vehicle using a radar sensor mounted on the vehicle's glass. The radar sensor emits a radar signal into the passenger compartment, and a plurality of conductive pins are used for communication. Conductive layers and fixed contacts on the glass enable contact with the conductive pins.
- A radar sensor is mounted on a vehicle's glass to detect the interior of the vehicle.
- The radar sensor emits a radar signal into the passenger compartment.
- Conductive pins are used for communication within the system.
- Conductive layers and fixed contacts on the glass enable contact with the conductive pins.
Potential Applications
- Vehicle safety systems
- Occupancy detection for smart airbag deployment
- Intrusion detection for theft prevention
- Monitoring passenger behavior for ride-sharing services
Problems Solved
- Improved detection of vehicle interior without the need for complex wiring or sensors inside the cabin.
- Enables accurate detection of occupants and their behavior for various applications.
- Simplifies installation and maintenance of vehicle interior detection systems.
Benefits
- Enhanced safety by enabling more precise airbag deployment based on occupancy.
- Improved security by detecting unauthorized entry or theft attempts.
- Enables monitoring of passenger behavior for better ride-sharing experiences.
- Simplified installation and maintenance process for vehicle interior detection systems.
Original Abstract Submitted
