Upon detecting a user departing a passenger cabin of a vehicle, a pose of the user id determined relative to the vehicle. A classification for a vehicle door is determined based on the pose. The classification is one of monitored or unmonitored. A sensor is controlled to monitor the vehicle door based on the classification.

A device for providing an interface using a projection includes: a first camera for capturing a vehicle user when an approach of the vehicle user to a vehicle is detected; a projector for projecting an interface, related to at least one vehicle control function, preset based on user identification information; a second camera for capturing an area on which the interface is projected; a memory storing one or more instructions; and a processor for executing the instructions to: acquire the user identification information of the vehicle user using the first camera, recognize a user input to the interface using the second camera, and perform a vehicle control corresponding to the interface when the user input is recognized.

The present disclosure provides an apparatus, method and system for use with a vehicle having passive keyless entry and start (PKES) system including a vehicle unit and a key fob storage unit. The vehicle unit is to be installed with the vehicle having a first transceiver, a first relay transceiver an authentication unit, a first controller for controlling said first relay transceiver allowing said transmission if said user is authenticated. The key fob storage unit comprises at least one housing for securely holding at least one key fob associated with said PKES systems of said vehicles, a second, said second wireless relay w wherein said first relay transceiver and said second relay transceiver allows said PKES system and said key fob to communicate from a distance larger than a range of said PKES system signals.

Example vehicle security systems and methods are described. In one implementation, a method receives a destination and a driving route to the destination for an autonomous vehicle to follow. A vehicle security system identifies a passkey associated with the driving route and communicates the passkey to a user designated to meet the autonomous vehicle at the destination. The vehicle security system confirms that the user designated to meet the autonomous vehicle possesses the passkey.

An intrusion detection system for a vehicle includes a radar sensor, a calculator, and an alarm system adapted to generate an alarm, the radar sensor being adapted to detect the presence of a body within the vehicle, the calculator being adapted to categorize each detected body as either a “human” category or an “other” category and to trigger the alarm system only when at least one of the detected body(ies) is categorized as “human”. Also included is an associated vehicle and method.
