System and method for setting information about vehicle
A system for setting information about a vehicle includes a collection vehicle that obtains data, and a server that receives the data from the collection vehicle, determines whether the data is applicable to user configuration information of a new vehicle, and determines whether to transform the data depending on whether the data is applicable to the user configuration information of the new vehicle so as to control a controlled device located in the new vehicle according to user configuration information stored in vehicles of at least one or more models.
BODY-SIZE CLASS SPECIFICATION DEVICE, BODY-SIZE CLASS SPECIFICATION METHOD, DRIVING-POSITION SETTING DEVICE, AND DRIVING-POSITION SETTING METHOD
A body-size class specification device of the present invention comprises a class feature-quantity information memorizing section to memorize class feature-quantity information to correlate plural classes for classifying a body size according to a dimension ratio of prescribed parts of a body with plural prescribed feature quantities for characterizing the plural classes, a first input section as an example of a feature-quantity acquiring section to acquire feature quantity of an object person to be specified for the class, an eye-height measuring section and an upper-body-length-ratio processing section, and a class specifying section to specify the class corresponding to the feature quantity of the object person acquired by the feature-quantity acquiring section based on the class feature-quantity information memorized by the class feature-quantity information memorizing section.
CABIN PREFERENCES SETTING THAT IS BASED ON IDENTIFICATION OF ONE OR MORE PERSONS IN THE CABIN
A method that may include receiving driving information and environmental metadata indicative of information sensed by the vehicle; detecting multiple driving events encountered during the driving over the path; determining driving events; for each driving event, determining a comfort based autonomous driving pattern information; for each driving event, determining an driving event identifier; and storing in at least one data structure a driving event identifier for each one of the multiple types of driving events, and a comfort based autonomous driving pattern information.

Smart automatic seat height adjustment system
The present disclosure is directed to an automatic seat height system that adjusts a seat height. The height of a seat is adjusted only when a calculated seat height is outside of the range of a desired seat height. The seat is adjusted only when a seat height change from the desired seat height is not due to external forces such as vibration or shock. The seat height apparatus comprises a sensor, a height adjustment apparatus, a controller and a controllable actuator all in operable communication. The controller comprises software that calculates a calculated seat height based on a measured raw seat height. The calculated seat height is a time history position value pattern. The controller then compares the calculated seat height to a desired seat height to determine a change factor. If the change factor is outside of a predetermined range, the controller directs the controllable actuator to change the height of the seat to bring it within the range.

Active control over vehicle access by an ozone-based vehicle deodorization system
Methods and systems may provide for technology to initiate an injection of ozone for a predetermined cycle time into a cabin of a vehicle via a heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) subsystem of the vehicle only when the vehicle is in a locked state and a window-closed state, the vehicle cabin is vacant, and the vehicle is in park. The technology may also cease the injection of the ozone into the cabin in response to an override request detected before expiration of the predetermined cycle time and maintains the vehicle in the locked state for a predetermined wait time after the injection of the ozone into the cabin is ceased.
Body scan measurement for personalized ergonomic vehicle settings
Body measurements of a person may be scanned using a camera (e.g., a camera on a mobile phone. Vehicle settings may then be determined based on the body measurements. Example vehicle settings may include one or more of a position of a heads-up display, a position of a pedal, an angle of a backrest, a height of a seat cushion, a tilt of the seat cushion, an extension position of the seat cushion, a position of a lumbar support, a position of a seat side bolster, a position of a headrest, a position of a side mirror, a position of a rear-view mirror, a tilt of a steering wheel, and/or a position of a steering wheel.
