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 opened to access the interior of the vehicle. It also includes a position sensing device that can detect objects outside the vehicle. The device is equipped with a controller that activates the position sensing device after user authentication. The controller then determines the position of the user when the position sensing device detects the user, and it performs control to open the door that corresponds to the user's position.

  • The device has two or more doors for accessing the interior of a vehicle.
  • It includes a position sensing device that can detect objects outside the vehicle.
  • The position sensing device is activated after user authentication.
  • The controller determines the position of the user when the position sensing device detects the user.
  • The controller then opens the door that corresponds to the user's position.

Potential Applications

This technology can be applied in various vehicles, such as cars, trucks, and vans, to enhance door control and access management.

Problems Solved

1. Improved security: User authentication ensures that only authorized individuals can open the vehicle doors. 2. Enhanced convenience: The system automatically opens the door corresponding to the user's position, making it easier for users to access the vehicle.

Benefits

1. Increased safety: The device can prevent unauthorized access to the vehicle. 2. Improved user experience: Users can easily access the vehicle without manually opening the doors. 3. Efficient access management: The system can accurately determine the user's position and open the corresponding door, streamlining the entry process.


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.
