VEHICLE DOOR CONTROL SYSTEM
20220396980 · 2022-12-15 · ·

A vehicle door control system includes a courtesy switch that detects an opened/closed state of a side door, a latch actuator that performs an unlatch operation for releasing a latch that holds the side door in a closed state, an unlatch switch that is provided in a vehicle compartment and is operated by a user when releasing the latch, and a controller that causes the latch actuator to perform the unlatch operation when the unlatch switch is operated. The controller prevents the unlatch operation from being executed in a period during which the side door is in an opened state, even when the unlatch switch is operated.

Systems and methods for adapting activation timing of alerts

System, methods, and other embodiments described herein relate to alerting a passenger about hazards when exiting a subject vehicle. In one embodiment, a method includes identifying an initial target and a subsequent target according to sensor data about a surrounding environment of the subject vehicle. The method includes, in response to determining that the initial target satisfies an alert threshold, activating an initial alert for a defined time to inform the passenger of a hazard associated with the initial target and the passenger exiting the subject vehicle into a path of the initial target. The method includes extending the defined time responsive to the subsequent target satisfying the alert threshold and a timing threshold that defines a cool-down period between activating separate alerts.
