摘要： A system for alerting a responsible party to the presence of an occupant in a passenger compartment of a vehicle includes a vibration sensor detecting movement of an occupant, a microphone detecting sound made by the occupant, a processor configured to receive signals output from the vibration sensor and the microphone and to use a combination of the signals to determine whether the occupant is present, and an alerting device to provide an alert to the responsible party if the processor determines that the occupant is present. The microphone may also be used in a communication or voice-recognition command system. Two or more microphones may be used to locate the sound's source of origin.

摘要： A method for alerting a driver of an automotive vehicle (or other responsible party) to the presence or inferred presence of an object, a person, or a pet animal in rear seating rows of the vehicle. The open/closed condition of rear vehicle doors is monitored to determine whether the driver may have placed an object, child, or pet in the rear seating rows prior to the start of a drive-cycle, and an alert is generated at the end of the drive-cycle to remind the driver to check the rear seat. Sound detection and analysis may also be used to identify sounds characteristic of a human (a young child, for example) or a non-human animal (a pet, for example) and thereby verify that a child or pet is present.
摘要翻译：一种用于警告机动车辆（或其他责任方）的驾驶员在车辆的后排座位中存在或推断物体，人或宠物的存在的方法。监控后车门的打开/关闭状态，以确定在开始驱动周期之前驾驶员是否可能将物体，儿童或宠物放置在后排座椅中，并且在末尾产生警报驱动周期提醒驾驶员检查后座。声音检测和分析也可以用于识别人（例如，幼儿）或非人类动物（例如宠物）的声音特征，从而验证儿童或宠物是否存在。

摘要： A system for detecting a passenger in a rear seating row of a vehicle and alerting an occupant of a vehicle when a passenger safety device in a rear row is not properly used. Occupancy is determined by sensing any actuation of a switch or control in the rear row along with detecting sounds made by the rear row passenger. A processor receives control activity signals indicating that a control has been actuated, receives audio signals generated by a microphone, and uses the control activity signals and the audio signals in combination to determine that the passenger is present. The processor also receives a status signal from the passenger safety device indicating that it is not in proper use. An occupant alerting device provides an alert to the occupant if the processor determines that the passenger is present and the passenger safety device is not in proper use.

摘要： A non-contact RFID reader reads a code contained on an RFID tag carried by a driver of a vehicle. The code is assigned to a specific individual expected to operate the vehicle. An electronic module in the vehicle contains a data file uniquely associated with the code, and the data file contains physical characteristics of the driver that may be pertinent to proper functioning of safety systems of the vehicle, such as weight, height, age, and sex. Performance parameters of restraints and/or other safety systems, such as an airbag associated with the driver's seating position are adapted in accordance with the physical characteristics in the data file. The RFID reader may read multiple tags on board the vehicle, so that restraints for multiple seating positions in addition to the driver's seat may be adapted to the individual occupying those positions.
摘要翻译：非接触式RFID读取器读取由车辆驾驶员携带的RFID标签所包含的代码。代码被分配给预期操作车辆的特定个人。车辆中的电子模块包含与代码唯一相关联的数据文件，并且数据文件包含可能与车辆的安全系统的正常功能相关的驾驶员的身体特征，例如重量，身高，年龄和性别。根据数据文件中的物理特性，调节限制和/或其他安全系统的性能参数，例如与驾驶员的就座位置相关联的安全气囊。 RFID读取器可以读取车辆上的多个标签，使得除了驾驶员座椅之外的多个就座位置的限制可以适应于占据这些位置的个体。

摘要： A dual-mode rear vision system for an automotive vehicle includes an electro-optical imaging device operable in a short range mode to image a backup region immediately rearward of the vehicle and operable in a long range mode to image a collision threat region rearward of the backup region. The imaging device assumes the short range mode when the vehicle is in a reverse travel mode and assumes the long range mode when the vehicle is in a non-reverse travel mode. An electronic control module (ECM) analyzes imagery from the imaging device to detect backup hazards when in the reverse travel mode, and to detect rear collision threats when in the non-reverse travel mode. The ECM activates an occupant protection system if a collision threat is detected, and generates a driver alert and/or a braking intervention if a backup hazard is detected.
摘要翻译：一种用于机动车辆的双模式后视系统包括可在短距离模式下操作的电光成像装置，用于对紧邻车辆后方的备用区域进行成像，并可在远距离模式下对其进行成像备份区域。当车辆处于反向行驶模式时，成像装置采取短距离模式，并且当车辆处于非反向行驶模式时，成像装置处于远距离模式。电子控制模块（ECM）分析来自成像设备的图像，以便在反向行驶模式下检测备份危险，并在非反向行驶模式下检测后方碰撞威胁。如果检测到碰撞威胁，ECM将激活乘员保护系统，如果检测到备用危险，则会产生驾驶员警报和/或制动干预。

摘要： A dual-mode imaging system for a vehicle includes an electro-optical camera mounted inside the passenger cabin and a drive unit for rotating the camera between a rear view position wherein the camera images an area rearward of the vehicle and a seating view position wherein the camera images a seating area within the cabin. When the vehicle is in a non-reverse travel mode, an electronic control module (ECM) directs the camera to the seating view position and analyzes imagery to determine an occupancy status for at least one seating position. A safety system undergoes a function change based on the occupancy status. When the powertrain is in a reverse travel mode, the ECM directs the camera to the rear view position and imagery from the camera is presented on a display screen displays for viewing by the vehicle operator while backing up.
