摘要： A pre-crash sensing system (10) for a source vehicle (50) having a source vehicle length and a source vehicle width that is coupled to a countermeasure system (30) is described. The system includes an object sensor (17) generating an object distance signal, object relative velocity signal and an object classification signal. A controller (12) is coupled to the object sensor (17). The controller determines a danger zone based on the source vehicle length, source vehicle width and object length and object width. The source vehicle time interval is determined by the controller (12) corresponding to the time the source vehicle is within the danger zone. The controller (12) determines the object time interval corresponding to the time the object is within the danger zone. The controller (12) determines a point of impact in response to the object time interval and the source vehicle time interval. The controller (12) activates the countermeasure in response to the point of impact.

摘要： A sensing system (10) for an automotive vehicle includes a first radar sensor (18) generating a first and a second range signal, and a second radar sensor (20) generating a first and a second range signal corresponding to two sampling time periods. A controller (12) is coupled to the first radar sensor (18) and the second radar sensor (20). The controller (12) calculates a first position and a second position from the first radar sensor and the second radar sensor range measurements. The controller (12) generates a first set of points corresponding to the first position and a second set of points corresponding to the second position. The controller (12) calculates a plurality of calculated range-rate values in response to the first set of points and the second set of points. The controller (12) compares the plurality of calculated range-rate values to the measured range-rate and selects the closest range-rate from the plurality of calculated range-rate values. A couple of target position points is generated from the first set of points and the second set of points corresponding to the calculated closest range-rate.

摘要： A control system (10) for an automotive vehicle (50) has a remote object sensor (18) that generates an object signal in the presence of an object. A vehicle trajectory sensor (34) generates a signal indicative of the vehicle traveling on a curved road. A vehicle speed sensor (32) generates a speed signal corresponding to the longitudinal speed of the vehicle. A controller (12) is coupled to the object sensor (18), the vehicle trajectory sensor, and the vehicle speed sensor. When the remote object sensor (18) indicates the presence of an object with a minimum cross section in a pre-defined decision zone meeting pre-defined relative velocity criteria, and when the vehicle speed is above a first threshold and below a second threshold, and when said vehicle trajectory signal indicates the vehicle traveling on a curved road with a radius of curvature above a threshold value, a vehicle safety countermeasure system (40) is deployed.

摘要： Apparatus for moving an automotive vehicle seat along a track includes a motor, a first sensor sensing rotation of the motor, and a second sensor detecting presence of the seat at a reference position along the track. A controller determines a seat position based upon signals from the first sensor and calibrates the determined seat position based upon a signal from the second sensor indicating that the seat is at the reference position. This allows any error that as accumulated in the seat position as determined by the first sensor to be eliminated each time the seat reaches the known reference position.

摘要： A system and a method for protecting the occupant of a vehicle during a side-impact detects an approaching vehicle and identifies a collision threat. A collision threat level is assessed based on a set of parameters, and when the collision threat exceeds a pre-determined collision threat threshold level, the system unlatches the occupant's door, pushes it a few centimeters outwards, and locks it in that position. Pressure sensors and accelerometers disposed at suitable locations on the sides of the vehicle, provide crash signals to a Restraint Control Module (RCM). When the crash signals exceed a certain threshold, the RCM commands an airbag deployment module to deploy the airbag between the occupant and the door. Since the door is pushed outwards, an extra pre-crush space is created between the occupant and the door, which allows the use of larger and softer side airbags to provide enhanced protection to the vehicle occupants.
摘要翻译：在侧面碰撞期间保护车辆的乘客的系统和方法检测到接近的车辆并识别碰撞威胁。碰撞威胁级别是根据一组参数进行评估的，当碰撞威胁超过预先确定的碰撞威胁阈值水平时，系统会将占用者的门打开，将其推开几厘米，将其锁定在该位置。设置在车辆侧面适当位置的压力传感器和加速度计向约束控制模块（RCM）提供碰撞信号。当碰撞信号超过一定阈值时，RCM命令安全气囊展开模块将乘客和门之间的气囊展开。由于门被向外推，在乘员和门之间产生额外的预碎空间，这允许使用较大和较软的侧面安全气囊来为车辆乘客提供增强的保护。

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.
