A vehicle seat management system configured to adjust one or more seats based on occupant and/or vehicular data. In one aspect, the occupant and/or vehicular data may be sent to a remote device for calculation of a seat adjustment algorithm. In another aspect, the seat adjustment algorithm may be sent via wireless transmission. In one example, the wireless transmission may be 5G.

A transportation system is disclosed. The transportation system includes a vehicle, a plurality of seating assemblies positioned within a passenger compartment of the vehicle and defining an arrangement, a plurality of actuators that effect movement of various components of the plurality of seating assemblies, a plurality of sensors, and a controller. Specific examples of pre-set or pre-programmed arrangements are disclosed, as well as the ability to customize the arrangement. Additionally, exemplary methods are disclosed that illustrate transitions between a variety of the pre-set or pre-programmed arrangements.

Proposed are a plurality of motors respectively performing seat control functions and a plurality of switching elements provided to supply the plurality of motors with power, in which the plurality of motors are connected to share at least a part of the switching elements.

Various systems and methods are provided for determining a posture of an occupant of a vehicle. In one embodiment, a method comprises capturing images of an occupant in a vehicle via a vehicle camera, determining a current posture of the occupant and a recommended posture for the occupant based on the captured images and body measurements of the occupant, and outputting a guidance based on a difference between the current posture and the recommended posture. In this way, a comfort of the occupant may be increased by guiding the occupant toward a more ergonomic posture.

A system for communicating with removable components may include an electronic controller and a removable component having an identifier and configured to communicate with the electronic controller. The removable component may be configured to transmit the identifier to the electronic controller via a first communication channel. The electronic controller may be configured to transmit a confirmation to the removable component after receipt of the identifier. The removable component may be configured to transmit information to the electronic controller via at least one of the first communication channel and/or a second communication channel, after receipt of the confirmation.

An electrical system may include a mounting surface, a component configured for connection with the mounting surface and configured to move relative to the mounting surface, and/or an orientation sensor configured to determining an orientation of the component relative to the mounting surface. The orientation sensor may include a first sensor (e.g., a magnetometer, an accelerometer, a gyroscope, etc.) connected, at least indirectly, to the mounting surface, and a second sensor (e.g., a magnetometer, an accelerometer, a gyroscope, etc.) connected to move with the component. The orientation sensor may include an electronic controller. The electronic controller may be configured to compare first information from the first sensor to second information from the second sensor to determine the orientation of the component relative to the mounting surface.

Disclosed is an anti-pinch control system. The anti-pinch control system includes a motor configured to generate driving force for moving a seat of a vehicle, a current measurement sensor configured to measure a current value generated in the motor, a hall sensor configured to measure a revolution per minute (RPM) of the motor, and a controller configured to derive an average of current values measured by the current measurement sensor during an edge generating time during which a specific number of edges are generated by the hall sensor, and to set, to an anti-pinch value, a value obtained by adding a rising value, corresponding to current that increases when a pinch occurs in the seat, to the average, wherein the controller derives the average for each specific RPM and updates the anti-pinch value.
