A computer includes a processor and a memory, the memory storing instructions executable by the processor to collect biometric data of a vehicle user, identify a set of user-specific data from one or more stored sets of user-specific data based on the biometric data, and receive a request for a stored location. When the biometric data of the vehicle user match the stored biometric data, the instructions include instructions to display the requested location. When the biometric data of the vehicle user do not match the stored biometric data, the instructions include instructions to identify an offset location based on the requested location and a population density of the requested location and display the offset location.

A vehicle security system connected to an external device running a program thereon, the vehicle security system including a front camera disposed on at least a portion of a front portion of a vehicle to record at least one first visual data of a surrounding area in a front of the vehicle thereon, a plurality of rear cameras disposed on at least a portion of a rear bumper of the vehicle to record at least one second visual data of a surrounding area in a rear of the vehicle thereon, a first mirror camera disposed on at least a portion of a first mirror of the vehicle to record at least one third visual data of a surrounding area on a first side of the vehicle thereon, a second mirror camera disposed on at least a portion of a second mirror of the vehicle to record at least one fourth visual data of a surrounding area on a second side of the vehicle thereon, a roof antenna camera disposed on at least a portion of a roof antenna of the vehicle to record at least one fifth visual data of a surrounding area on a roof of the vehicle thereon, a plurality of interior cameras disposed on at least a portion of a rearview mirror of the vehicle to record at least one sixth visual data of a surrounding area within an interior of the vehicle thereon, and a microphone disposed on at least a portion of the rearview mirror of the vehicle to record at least one audio data of a surrounding area of the vehicle.

A vehicle includes a first sensor that senses a state of the vehicle and a second sensor that senses outside of the vehicle. A computing device is configured to receive signals from the sensors and to control rotating and turning of the wheels. While the vehicle is parked, the computing device determines according to a signal received from the sensors, that a condition is satisfied. The condition may be associated with a particular wheel. Based on determining that the condition is satisfied, and while the vehicle remains parked, the computing device initiates automatically rotating or turning the particular wheel associated with the condition.

A vehicle operation detection device includes a storage unit configured to store a trained model obtained by machine learning using training data in which an image captured in advance and a body part used for a gesture of a user are associated with each other, an entry determination unit configured to determine whether, based on a position of the body part in the image obtained by inputting a newly captured image into the trained model, the body part enters a recognition area set in an imaging area of a camera, and a gesture determination unit configured to calculate a displacement vector of the body part based on images captured at a time interval after it is determined that the body part enters the recognition area, and determine, in accordance with whether a direction of the displacement vector is a direction corresponding to the gesture, whether the gesture is made.

Example vehicle unlocking methods and apparatus are described. In one example method, wakeup keyword detection is performed on an obtained voice signal. If the voice signal includes a wakeup keyword, an acoustic source direction is determined, and a target camera is indicated to collect image data. The target camera is a target camera that is installed on the vehicle and whose angle of view can ensure that the acoustic source direction is captured. Then, the vehicle is unlocked based on the image data collected by the target camera.

According to one embodiment, a light source includes a plurality of light-emitting elements each including one or more surface-emitting lasers; and a plurality of detecting elements located on a same substrate as the light-emitting elements. The detecting elements individually detect quantities of output light of the light-emitting elements.

A method and system for detecting if a relay is present in a PEPS system for a vehicle is provided which includes (a) transmitting LF signals from antennas associated with a vehicle to a key fob using a 3D LF receiver to measure the LF signal level on the x, y and z-axes; (b) selecting two or more parallel antennas associated with the vehicle that are orthogonal to the antenna at the PEPS triggering location; (c) normalizing the x, y and z vectors that are measured by the key fob for the selected two or more parallel antennas associated with the vehicle; and (d) determining if the normalized x, y and z vectors for the selected two or more parallel antennas associated with the vehicle are within a predefined range.

An embodiment vehicle includes a display device, an input device configured to obtain an input of a user, a smart key identifying device configured to search for a smart key of a plurality of smart keys, and a controller electrically connected to the display device, the input device, and the smart key identifying device, wherein the controller is configured to control the smart key identifying device to search for the smart key located inside the vehicle based on receiving a first command for executing a face registration process through the input device and to determine whether to proceed with the face registration process based on how many of the plurality of smart keys are identified as being inside the vehicle.

A method for controlling at least one locking element of a vehicle is disclosed. A mobile identification transmitter is detected at a position in a certain access region around the vehicle. Furthermore, a user signal is output to a user carrying the mobile identification transmitter after the mobile identification transmitter has stayed at the position for a first predetermined duration. In addition, the at least one locking element is unlocked/opened after the mobile identification transmitter further stays at the position for a second predetermined duration after the user signal is output. For the targeted control of the automatic unlocking or opening of the vehicle door, the process of unlocking or opening is terminated if a termination signal from the user is detected within the second predetermined duration.

A vehicular security system includes a remote device with a first biometric sensor. An electronic control unit (ECU) of a vehicle processes data captured by the first biometric sensor to determine whether an identity of the user of the remote device matches an authorized user of the vehicle. The ECU, responsive to determining that the user is authorized to use the vehicle, unlocks a door of the vehicle to allow the identified authorized user to access the vehicle. The system includes a second biometric sensor disposed in the vehicle and, with the identified authorized user in the vehicle, the ECU, via processing data captured by the second biometric sensor, determines whether the identity of the identified authorized user of vehicle matches an authorized operator of the vehicle. The ECU, responsive to determining that the user is an authorized operator of the vehicle, allows operation of the vehicle.
