An apparatus in a wireless vehicle-access system, that includes a vehicle and a fob, includes: a vehicle-authorization parameter module configured to obtain a value of a vehicle-authorization parameter wherein the vehicle-authorization parameter comprises at least one of movement of the fob, a received directional signal, or a received audible signal; and a vehicle function compatibility module configured to: determine whether the value of the vehicle-authorization parameter is consistent or inconsistent with a desired function of the vehicle; inhibit the desired function of the vehicle in response to the value of the vehicle-authorization parameter being determined to be inconsistent with the desired function of the vehicle; and permit the desired function of the vehicle in response to the value of the vehicle-authorization parameter being determined to be consistent with the desired function of the vehicle.

A method for vehicle function control includes: in response to determining that a distance between a vehicle and a terminal is within a bluetooth low energy (BLE) communication distance and the terminal has a digital vehicle key of the vehicle, establishing a BLE connection between the vehicle and the terminal and performing a BLE ranging; and when a BLE ranging result meets a preset condition, controlling the vehicle to unlock a door lock.

A program and a control device capable of calibrating a detection value of a sensor that detects contact with a steering wheel are provided. The program in accordance with the present invention is characterized by causing a computer to execute processing of distinguishing whether or not a user is on a driver's seat of a vehicle; acquiring, from a sensor (21) that converts contact with a steering wheel (2) into an electric signal for detection, a detection value of the detected electric signal; determining whether or not a difference between the detection value acquired when it has been distinguished that the user is not on the driver's seat, and a reference value is equal to or larger than a threshold value; and setting the detection value as the reference value when it has been determined that the difference is not equal to or larger than the threshold value.

A vehicle includes: a camera disposed on left and right sides of an exterior of the vehicle and configured to acquire image data by photographing a surrounding area of the vehicle. A controller is configured to, upon a touch of a user on a door handle of a driver door being identified based on image processing on the image data, determine a height of the user based on the image processing on the image data and to adjust positions of a driver's seat, a steering wheel, and a head up display (HUD) to correspond to the determined height of the user.

A method for monitoring a parking facility that has an area reserved for autonomously driving vehicles, including: receiving an access request associated with a person for the reserved area, checking whether the person is authorized for access to the reserved area, granting access if the person is authorized for access, monitoring a behavior of the person in the reserved area. Also described is a corresponding device, system and computer program.
