DEVICE AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING DOOR OF VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17939737 titled 'DEVICE AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING DOOR OF VEHICLE

Simplified Explanation

The present disclosure is about a device and method for controlling the doors of a vehicle. The device has multiple doors that can be used to open the interior of the vehicle. It also includes a position sensing device that can detect objects outside the vehicle. A controller is present in the device, which activates the position sensing device only after user authentication. The controller then determines the position of the user when the position sensing device detects the user as an object. Finally, the controller performs the necessary control actions to open the door that corresponds to the user's position.

  • Device includes multiple doors for opening the vehicle's interior
  • Position sensing device detects objects outside the vehicle
  • Controller activates position sensing device after user authentication
  • Controller determines user's position when detected by the position sensing device
  • Controller opens the door corresponding to the user's position

Potential Applications

This technology can be applied in various vehicles, such as cars, buses, and trucks, to enhance door control and improve user convenience and safety.

Problems Solved

1. Improved user convenience: Users no longer need to manually open the doors as the system automatically opens the door corresponding to their position. 2. Enhanced safety: The system ensures that only authenticated users can activate the position sensing device and control the doors, reducing the risk of unauthorized access.

Benefits

1. Increased efficiency: The automated door control saves time and effort for users. 2. Improved security: User authentication ensures that only authorized individuals can control the doors. 3. Enhanced user experience: The system provides a seamless and convenient door control mechanism for users.


Original Abstract Submitted

The present disclosure relates to a device and a method for controlling a door of a vehicle. The device includes two or more doors for opening an interior of the vehicle, a position sensing device for sensing an object outside the vehicle, and a controller that activates the position sensing device based on user authentication, determines a position of a user when the object sensed by the position sensing device is the user, and performs control to open a door corresponding to the position of the user.
