CLOSING DEVICE AND METHOD FOR CLOSING A DOOR
A method and a device for closing a door on a door opening of a vehicle are provided. The closing device includes a seal formed between the door and the door opening for separating an interior space and an exterior space from each other when the door is in a closed position. The device also includes a door drive for moving the door and a controller coupled to the door drive for controlling movement of the door based on an operating request of a user. The controller includes a condition monitoring unit configured to determine and use at least one variable state variable chosen from the group consisting of the device, the door, the door opening, and the installation environment of the door. The controller is configured to generate a value of at least one closing parameter for closing the door depending on the at least one variable state variable.
ALLERGEN MAP CREATED BY VEHICLE NETWORK
A system for providing allergen information includes an allergen sensor located on a vehicle designed to detect allergen data corresponding to levels of at least one allergen in an environment of the vehicle. The system further includes a network access device located on the vehicle and designed to transmit the allergen data to a remote server and to receive an allergen map from the remote server, the allergen map being based on the allergen data from the vehicle and from additional vehicles, and indicating the levels of the at least one allergen at various locations on the allergen map. The system further includes an output device designed to output data. The system further includes an electronic control unit (ECU) coupled to the allergen sensor, the network access device, and the output device and designed to control the output device to output the allergen map received from the remote server.
METHOD FOR ALLOCATING OPERATING PARAMETERS TO LOCAL CONTROL UNITS INTENDED TO CONTROL A DOOR MOVEMENT IN A MOTOR VEHICLE
A method for allocating operating parameters to at least two local control units intended to control a door movement for a motor vehicle, wherein: a plurality of parameter records of operating parameters is stored in each local control unit; a plurality of values of a detection criterion is stored in each local control unit, said detection criterion being based on at least two values of an electric variable; for at least one local control unit, a value of the detection criterion is prepared using the electric variable; in each local control unit the detection criterion is queried; and, a parameter record is selected in accordance with the value of the detection criterion determined during the query, and the corresponding operating parameters are allocated to the local control unit.
Method for operating a door module of a motor vehicle
A method for operating a door module of a motor vehicle, having a door which is driven by means of a motorized door adjuster, and having a windowpane which is driven by means of a motorized window lift. A first request for adjusting the windowpane is detected, and the window pane is adjusted depending on the first request. A second request for adjusting the door is detected, and the door is adjusted depending on the second request. The adjustment of the windowpane is ended at least temporarily while the door is adjusted. A door module of a motor vehicle is also provided.
Drive unit
A drive unit for closing a leaf of a door or a window comprises an energy accumulator for providing a closing force for closing the leaf, a damping device which counteracts the closing force and has an electric motor which can be operated as a generator and can be coupled to an actuating element of the drive unit, and a control device for controlling the electric motor. The control device is designed to determine a nominal path curve which indicates a position of the leaf or a closing speed of the leaf in dependence upon time, and to perform the control of the electric motor in order to damp the closing movement of the leaf on the basis of the established target path curve.
Barrier Operator Feature Enhancement
A barrier operator feature enhancement device is designed to provide one or more features found in modern barrier operator devices and to incorporate those features into a previously installed barrier operator system. To facilitate ease of use, the barrier operator feature enhancement device can communicate with a large variety of barrier operators. Such communication may be wireless or wired, depending on the communication protocol implemented by a particular previously installed barrier operator. To facilitate the ease of installation, the device is designed to configure itself to operate with the communication protocol of the previously installed barrier operator. Once configured to be able to communicate with the previously installed barrier operator, the feature enhancement device works with the barrier operator to provide one or more additional features to enhance the capabilities of the previously installed barrier operator.
OPENING AND CLOSING BODY CONTROL DEVICE AND PROGRAM
An opening and closing body control device includes: a target speed recalculation unit that, when the first opening and closing body and the second opening and closing body are moving, recalculates the respective target speeds of each of the first opening and closing body and the second opening and closing body for reaching the target open amounts at the same time; and a second synchronous control unit that, in a case in which a speed of at least one of the first opening and closing body or the second opening and closing body is different from the target speed calculated by the target speed calculation unit, controls the first motor drive unit and the second motor drive unit so that the first opening and closing body and the second opening and closing body move at the respective target speeds recalculated by the target speed recalculation unit.

Method for controlling a door via integrated data collection, transmission device and transmission processing
A door controller with an integrated data collection and transmission device, which comprises a motor driving module, a bus communication module, a vehicle door opening/closing control module, a parameter control module, and a data collection and transmission device. The data collection and transmission device is configured to receive and process four types of data collected by a motor driving data collection unit, a vehicle door opening/closing control data collection unit, an operation parameter collection unit, and a bus communication data collection unit, and transmit the four types of processed data to a background server.
SELF-LEARNING, NOISE FILTERING OF RADAR USED FOR AUTOMOTIVE APPLICATIONS
Embodiments include methods, systems and computer readable storage medium for a method for operating one or more doors of a vehicle is disclosed. The method includes receiving, by at least one radar sensor on the vehicle, input data related to one or more objects. The method further includes filtering, by the at least one radar sensor, vehicle environment noise from the received input. The method further includes identifying, by the at least one radar sensor, an external environment for the vehicle based on the filtered input. The method further includes operating, by a processor, one or more doors of the vehicle based on the external environment for the vehicle.
