SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17892061 titled 'SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING VEHICLE
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a vehicle control system that allows for remote control of a vehicle's door opening. Here are the key points:
- The system includes a portable terminal that sends a command to open the vehicle's door.
- A vehicle control device updates the maximum limit for how much the door can be opened and determines the current door opening amount based on the surrounding environment information.
- The vehicle control device then transmits the maximum value and the current door opening amount to a server.
- The server compares the current door opening amount with the maximum value and decides whether to allow a remote vehicle departure based on this comparison.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Remote vehicle departure control in situations where the door cannot be opened manually.
- Enhancing driver comfort by allowing them to remotely control the door opening.
- Improving accessibility for individuals with mobility challenges.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Provides a solution for situations where the door cannot be opened remotely, ensuring convenience for the driver.
- Allows for remote control of the door opening, eliminating the need for physical interaction with the vehicle.
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved driver comfort and convenience.
- Enhanced accessibility for individuals with mobility limitations.
- Increased flexibility in controlling the vehicle's door opening remotely.
Original Abstract Submitted
A vehicle control system may include a portable terminal that transmits a door open command of a vehicle, a vehicle control device that updates a maximum value of a door opening amount of the vehicle, determines a current door opening amount based on surrounding environment information, and transmits the maximum value of the door opening amount and the current door opening amount, and a server that compares the current door opening amount with the maximum value of the door opening amount, and determines whether to perform a remote vehicle departure depending on the comparison result. The vehicle control system may improve driver comfort by controlling the door opening through a remote vehicle departure in a situation where the door cannot be opened remotely.
