An opening-closing member control device includes a motor that opens and closes an opening-closing member of a vehicle, and a control unit configured to stop the motor when determining that a foreign object has been entrapped by the opening-closing member and reverse the motor when a delay time elapses after stopping the motor. When the control unit determines that entrapment has occurred upon operation of a remote operation switch that is separated from the vehicle, the control unit reverses the motor after the delay time that is shorter than when determining that entrapment has occurred upon operation of a vehicle operation switch that is arranged in the vehicle.

A control unit for operating a moveably arranged closure member of an open roof assembly comprises at least one computing resource for executing a computing process. The control unit is configured to interrupt a running first computing process and to execute a second computing process for controlling at least a part of a closing movement of the closure member. The first computing process may be restarted when the closing movement is stopped.

The proposed solution in particular relates to a method for adjusting an adjusting part (1) on a vehicle (F), wherein an adjustment of the adjusting part (1) is controlled by using an electronic detection device (2) which detects a potential obstacle in an adjustment path of the adjusting part (1) on the basis of at least one first measured value and generates at least one control signal (r(t)) for controlling the adjustment of the adjusting part (1). At least over a defined time period, a curve of the control signal (r(t)) and/or of the first measured value as well as a curve of at least one second measured value (a(t), i(t), v(t)) changing significantly on collision of the adjusting part (1) with an obstacle are stored so as to be read out and correlated with each other for a subsequent plausibility check.

The present disclosure relates to an apparatus which communicates with a voice recognition device, and a method for controlling an apparatus with a voice recognition capability which operates in the Internet of Things environment configured by a 5G communication network. According to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, an apparatus with a voice recognition capability includes a container which has one open surface and accommodates objects therein, a door which opens/closes the container, a sensor which senses an open/closed state of the door, a microphone which receives an external voice, a voice recognizer which recognizes a voice command received from the microphone, and a controller which controls an active state and an inactive state of the voice recognizer, in which the controller may predict whether the voice recognizer needs to be activated using a deep neural network model learned through the machine learning.

An opening-closing member control device includes a motor that opens and closes an opening-closing member of a vehicle, and a control unit configured to stop the motor when determining that a foreign object has been entrapped by the opening-closing member and reverse the motor when a delay time elapses after stopping the motor. When the control unit determines that entrapment has occurred upon operation of a remote operation switch that is separated from the vehicle, the control unit reverses the motor after the delay time that is shorter than when determining that entrapment has occurred upon operation of a vehicle operation switch that is arranged in the vehicle.

An automated window mechanism is disclosed, including a motor secured to a window, the window being in a frame and wherein the motor causes the window to move relative to the frame in two directions: an open direction being defined as a direction toward which movement of the window relative to the frame causes the window to be more closed, and a closed direction defined as a direction opposite the open direction. The mechanism also includes a transmission component that transfers power from the motor to movement of the window relative to the frame, the transmission component having a backup defined as a distance the transmission component can move from a first point at which further movement in the open direction will cause the window to begin moving in the open direction, and a second point at which further movement in the closed direction will cause the window to begin moving in the closed direction. The mechanism also includes a processor and memory storing one or more computer-readable instructions executable by the processor to perform acts. The acts include instructing the motor to move the window relative to the frame, and upon the window reaching a desired position relative to the frame, reversing the transmission component into a neutral range within the backup to release energy stored in the transmission component.

Present invention relates to an automatic door operator 10 and method of operating said automatic door operator 10. The automatic door operator 10 is arranged to operate the movable door member D1, said automatic door operator 10 comprising a drive unit 24 for moving the movable door member D1 between a closed position and an open position, a controller 32 configured to control said drive unit 24 and a sensor S1 operatively connected to said controller 32. The sensor is configured to monitor the operation of the movable door member D1 and transfer sensor data to said controller 32.

A motor control system for a folding partition includes a data storage device and processing circuitry. The data storage device is configured to store a normal threshold profile to serve as a threshold for a measured current supplied to a motor to detect abnormal operation of the motor. The motor is configured to drive motion of the folding partition. The processing circuitry is operably coupled to the data storage device. The processing circuitry is configured to generate an adjusted threshold profile to serve as a threshold for the measured current supplied to the motor while moving the folding partition during a transition from an abnormal operational mode to the normal operational mode. The adjusted threshold profile is used for detecting additional abnormal operation of the motor. The processing circuitry is configured to generate the adjusted threshold profile by adjusting at least a portion of the normal threshold profile.
