An opening system of a vehicle for avoiding interference of a door having a camera monitoring system (CMS) includes: the door in which the CMS is installed and which is slidably openable, an input device configured to receive an input request for opening the door, a processor configured to calculate a sliding opening trajectory of the door, and a controller configured to direct the CMS to be accommodated in the door when the door is opened and perform locking of the door when interference is determined as occurring in the opening trajectory of the door calculated in the processor based on surroundings information received through an image capturing device.

A method of controlling the movements of at least one controllable door of a motor vehicle and a motor vehicle component. A control device and a sensor arrangement are assigned to the door, and the door has a controllable motion influencing device. A motion of a door wing of the door can be controlled and influenced by way of the motion influencing device in between a closed position and an open position. The sensor arrangement includes a distance sensor in the movable door wing that captures distance data during the motion, and obtains from the distance data captured with the distance sensor in different angular positions, the position of at least one object in the surrounding area of the door wing, by way of triangulation.

A door system for a vehicle includes a vehicle door, a closing unit, an operating element arranged on the vehicle door for a vehicle user, a first light source, and a control unit. The first light source is arranged such that the first light source illuminates segments of the vehicle door and/or body in the region of the door gap. The control unit receives signals of an electronic key for the vehicle and controls the closing unit depending on signals of the electronic key, and the first light source depending on the closure state of the vehicle door and/or depending on a communication state of the electronic key with the control unit of the vehicle. For a defined closure state of the vehicle door or a defined communication state of the electronic key with the control unit, the control unit illuminates a location of the segments of the vehicle door assigned to the operating element and/or the segments of the body.

A monitoring system is configured to prevent a door of a vehicle from contacting an object in a travel path of the door. The monitoring system includes an alarm device and a structured light assembly that has at least one optical projector and at least one image capturing module configured to detect an object in the travel path of the door. A control system is configured to generate a notification, with the alarm device, upon the detected presence of the object in the travel path of the door.

A motor vehicle panel, in particular motor vehicle door which comprises a lighting unit and an energy accumulator unit arranged in the door leaf for supplying energy to at least the lighting unit. According to the invention, the energy accumulator unit is coupled to the lighting unit via at least one detachable electric connection.

A method for controlling door movements of a controllable door of a motor vehicle, and a motor vehicle component. A control device and a sensor arrangement are attributed to the door. The door has a controllable motion influencing device, wherein a motion of a door wing of the door can be controlled and influenced by way of the motion influencing device to alternate between a closed position and an open position. The control device obtains position data which are representative of the geographic position of the motor vehicle and the control device controls movements of the door wing in dependence on the position data.

An integrated lighting insert is provided for multi-function automotive vehicle lighting that has minimal space requirements and provides different lighting functions in a single device with an electronic control module that can easily interface with vehicle electronics. The insert is a housing and a plurality of light transmission portions, a plurality of light sources integrated into the housing, each one configured for a different predetermined function associated with a particular use of, a condition of, or a state of the automobile. An electrical circuit is used along with a communications bus and individual controller circuits associated with the light sources for controlling the light functions.

The aim of the invention is to provide a rubber profiled safety strip or an elastic profiled safety strip which can carry out a signaling function. To this end a profiled safety strip (10) is provided for a door (15) of a transport means, wherein the profiled safety strip (10) contains an opaque elastic main part (11) in which at least one receiving region (17, 18) is formed, and in the at least one receiving region (17, 18) an insert strip (12, 31) is disposed, which contains at least one light source (13, 32) and is made of an elastic material that is at least partly transparent.

A luggage rack able to illuminate includes a body portion (101), fixed on a top of a vehicle. A plurality of illuminators (103) is further included and arranged with the illuminating luggage rack. By arranging the illuminators (103), surrounding vehicles and drivers may easily notice the vehicle having the illuminating luggage rack, ensuring driving safety.

The present invention relates to a vehicle control device provided in a vehicle and a control method of a vehicle. A vehicle control device according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a beam output unit for irradiating light to a road surface of a periphery of a vehicle, and a processor for sensing whether an object approaching toward a vehicle door is present or not via a sensing unit provided in the vehicle when a control command for opening the vehicle door is received after the vehicle stops, and, controlling the beam output unit so that information notifying the object approaching toward the vehicle door is irradiated to the road surface of the periphery of the vehicle door in a state in which the vehicle door is closed based on the presence of the object approaching toward the vehicle door.
