The present disclosure provides a method of opening a boarding door of a vehicle that provides use of a trunk room to a passenger reserving the trunk room. The method comprises keeping the boarding door closed until both a first condition and a second condition are satisfied and opening the boarding door or enabling the boarding door to be opened in response to both the first condition and the second condition being satisfied. Here, the first condition is that the passenger is in the vicinity of the boarding door. The second condition is that the trunk door is closed or that a reservation of the trunk room is cancelled.

A vehicle system includes a detection device structurally configured to capture an image, a door lock, where the door lock is positionable between a locked position and an unlocked position, a controller communicatively coupled to the detection device and the door lock, the controller including a processor and a non-transitory computer readable and executable instruction set, which when executed, causes the processor to receive a captured image of a user from the detection device, determine whether the captured image of includes protective equipment worn by the user, and direct the door lock to move into the unlocked position in response to determining that the protective equipment in the captured image meets a configurable protective equipment baseline.

Systems and methods are disclosed herein for implementation of a vehicle command operation system that may use multi-modal technology to authenticate an occupant of the vehicle to authorize a command and receive natural language commands for vehicular operations. The system may utilize sensors to receive data indicative of a voice command from an occupant of the vehicle. The system may receive second sensor data to aid in the determination of the corresponding vehicular operation in response to the received command. The system may retrieve authentication data for the occupants of the vehicle. The system authenticates the occupant to authorize a vehicular operation command using a neural network based on at least one of the first sensor data, the second sensor data, and the authentication data. Responsive to the authentication, the system may authorize the operation to be performed in the vehicle based on the vehicular operation command.

A visual theft prevention system for a vehicle 1 comprises at least one sheet of automotive glass configured as a vehicle windscreen 2, and; at least one film layer attached to the at least one sheet of automotive glass, the film layer configured to have an active state where the film layer is substantially opaque, and an inactive state where the film layer is substantially transparent, the film layer shaped and sized such that when in the active state, the view of a user through the vehicle windscreen 2 is substantially blocked.

A method for preventing an operation of a car application that causes a quality of service of an operation of a computer system of a vehicle to be reduced below a threshold can include receiving, from a separate source, a value indicative of the quality of service of the operation of the computer system during the operation of the car application in conjunction with the operation of the computer system. The method can include determining an existence of a condition. The condition can be that the value is less than the threshold. The method can include causing, in response to a determination of a lack of the condition, the car application to be in a condition to be operated on the vehicle. The method can include preventing, in response to a determination of the existence of the condition, the car application from being in the condition to be operated.

An illustrative example method of operating a capacitive vehicle entry control device includes: determining a plurality of capacitance values of the vehicle entry control device during a measurement period; determining an average capacitance of the plurality of capacitance values; determining whether the determined average capacitance exceeds an average threshold; determining a range of the plurality of capacitance values; determining whether the determined range exceeds a range threshold; and initiating a vehicle entry process when the determined average capacitance exceeds the average threshold or when the determined range exceeds the range threshold.
