Technologies for using image analysis to facilitate adjustments of vehicle components

Systems and methods for using image analysis techniques to facilitate adjustments to vehicle components are disclosed. According to aspects, a computing device may access and analyze image data depicting an individual(s) within a vehicle, and in particular determine a positioning of the individual(s) within the vehicle. Based on the positioning, the computing device may determine how to adjust a vehicle component(s) to its optimal configuration, and may facilitate adjustment of the vehicle component(s) accordingly.

VEHICULAR DRIVER MONITORING SYSTEM WITH AUTOMATIC SEAT SETTINGS

A vehicular driver monitoring system includes a camera disposed at an interior cabin of a vehicle equipped with the system and viewing at least a portion of a driver of the vehicle. The system includes an electronic control unit (ECU) including electronic circuitry and associated software. Frames of image data captured by the camera are transferred to and are processed at the ECU. The system, responsive to processing at the ECU of frames of image data captured by the camera and transferred to the ECU, determines location of the head of the driver. The system determines a configuration for a driver's seat of the vehicle based at least in part on the determined location of the head of the driver. The system adjusts the driver's seat of the vehicle using the determined configuration for the driver's seat.

ROTATABLE OPERATOR STATION OF A WORK MACHINE

The present disclosure is directed to apparatuses, system, and methods for rotating an operator station relative to another portion of an agricultural machine, such as a frame of the agricultural machine, to facilitate transport of the agricultural machine from one location to another. Transportation of the agricultural machine in this may include moving the agricultural machine in a direction that is conventionally considered to be the reverse direction of the agricultural machine. The operator station may include a cab of the agricultural machine or a portion of the cab, and the operator station may include one or more displays for displaying one or more images captured by an image capture device that is directed rearwardly of the agricultural machine.

Seat control system and method for setting driving posture

A seat control system for setting a driving posture and a seat control method is provided, in which body shape information indicating a body shape is input. Posture range information corresponding to the input body shape information is extracted from body shape posture range correspondence information, in which the body shape information and posture range information indicating a posture range of a vehicle seat corresponding to a driving posture range correspond to each other. A posture of the vehicle seat is controlled such that the posture of the vehicle seat falls within the posture range of the vehicle seat indicated by the extracted posture range information.

SEAT DEVICE FOR VEHICLE AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF

A seat device for a vehicle and a control method thereof are provided. The seat device for the vehicle includes: an electric device for moving a seat of the vehicle; a pinch detection unit that detects a pinched obstacle by detecting a load change of the electric device when the seat moves; and a control unit that causes the electric device to perform a reverse operation when the pinch detection unit detects that the obstacle is pinched, so as to cause the seat to reversely move. A reverse movement amount by which the seat is reversely moved is determined based on a time from when the load change starts to when the pinch detection unit detects that the obstacle is pinched.

VEHICLE SEAT

A vehicle seat includes an electric device for moving at least one of a seat cushion and a seat back. The vehicle seat includes an in-vehicle capturing device and a processing device. The in-vehicle capturing device is configured to capture interior image including at least one of the seat cushion and the seat back. The processing device is configured to compare the interior image with an interior specified image when the at least one of the seat cushion and the seat back is in a specified position, to calculate an absolute position of the at least one of the seat cushion and the seat back from an amount of change of the at least one of the seat cushion and the seat back relative to the specified position.

SQUAT-RESPONSIVE MIRROR AND SEAT CONTROL FOR A VEHICLE
20250242755 · 2025-07-31 ·

A system and method for a squat-responsive mirror and seat control for a vehicle is provided. The system includes a control circuitry configured to receive, from a sensor system, sensor information indicative of a squat condition of the vehicle. The squat condition is caused by a load on a towed trailer coupled to the vehicle. The control circuitry further determines a first position of a mirror assembly or a seat assembly of the vehicle. Based on the sensor information, the control circuitry determines an offset by which the mirror assembly or the seat assembly is to be moved with reference to the first position. Further, the control circuitry controls a movement of at least one of the mirror assembly or the seat assembly from the first position to a second position that is different from the first position.

AUTOMATIC DRIVER SEAT ADJUSTMENT IN A VEHICLE BASED ON SEAT POSITION IMAGING
20250249797 · 2025-08-07 ·

Automatic driver seat adjustment in a vehicle based on seat position imaging is disclosed. A computer system in the vehicle receives target seat position data indicating a target seat position of a set in a vehicle. To adjust the seat to the target seat position, imaging media of the seat is captured with the camera. The imaging media includes images of the seat that are indicative of the current seat position of the seat. The media is processed to determine the current seat position relative to the target seat position. The seat position is then controlled with a seat actuator to move the seat to a new seat position that is toward the target seat position. By utilizing a camera, multiple sensors are not required to keep track of seat position and a camera already used for other purposes in the vehicle can be further utilized for automatic seat positioning.
