The method includes receiving a verification communication that verifies a presence of the vehicle relative to a sensor associated with the movable barrier. The method further includes causing a movable barrier operator associated with the movable barrier to move the movable barrier between closed and open positions in response to the check-in identifier indicating authorization to access the facility and in response to receiving the verification communication. Further, the method includes selecting a particular loading dock from the plurality of loading docks and communicating a loading dock identification representative of the particular loading dock to the user device to direct the vehicle to the particular loading dock.

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 method for operating an assembly includes providing a furniture part which can be arranged by a furniture drive in at least two operating positions relative to a furniture body. In chronological order, a command transmitter spatially separated from the furniture drive transmits at least one digital command to a data transmission device of the furniture drive via the data transmission device of the command transmitter. A computing unit of the furniture drive compares the at least one digital command with at least one digital data set stored in a storage unit, and the computing unit makes a selection on the basis of the result of the comparison to carry out the at least one digital command.

A latch assembly for a closure system having first and second closure members each movable between open and closed positions and method of operation are provided. The assembly includes a primary latch mechanism that has a primary actuation group to control actuation of the first closure member. The latch assembly also includes a secondary latch mechanism that has a secondary actuation group operable to control actuation of the second closure member. A controller unit is coupled to the primary and secondary actuation groups and determines which of the primary actuation group and the secondary actuation group to actuate and controls actuation of at least one of the primary actuation group and the secondary actuation group accordingly. The primary and secondary latch mechanisms, primary and secondary actuation groups, and controller unit are all integrated into the housing.

Automatic vehicle window control systems and methods are provided herein. An example method includes determining a first operating height of a first window of a vehicle, determining a second operating height of a second window of the vehicle, comparing the first operating height with the second operating height, and selectively adjusting the first operating height or the second operating height to be substantially equal to one another when the first operating height and the second operating height are not substantially equal.

A mobile body control system includes: a window open or close instruction recognition unit that recognizes an open or close instruction of a window provided to a mobile body in accordance with a voice operation or an operation of a mobile terminal performed by a passenger on the mobile body; a window control unit that executes a window open or close control for opening or closing the window, when the open or close instruction of the window is recognized; and a window operation restriction unit that executes at least one of window operation inhibition processing for inhibiting execution of the window open or close control by the window control unit in accordance with an operation of a switch provided to the mobile body, and window operation stop processing for stopping the window being operated by the window open or close control in accordance with an operation of the switch.

In one aspect, a method is provided for controlling access to a facility including a movable barrier and a plurality of loading docks. The method includes receiving, from a user device associated with a vehicle, a check-in communication that includes a check-in identifier. The method includes receiving a verification communication that verifies a presence of the vehicle relative to a sensor associated with the movable barrier. The method further includes causing a movable barrier operator associated with the movable barrier to move the movable barrier between closed and open positions in response to the check-in identifier indicating authorization to access the facility and in response to receiving the verification communication. Further, the method includes selecting a particular loading dock from the plurality of loading docks and communicating a loading dock identification representative of the particular loading dock to the user device to direct the vehicle to the particular loading dock.

A method performed by an image capture device. The method includes determining whether to send a notification or determining whether to open a door based at least in part on at least one image captured by the image capture device.

In example implementations, an apparatus is provided. The apparatus includes a connection interface, a LAN interface, a WAN interface, and a processor. The connection interface is to connect to a PCB of a door controller. The LAN interface is to communicate with a plurality of door sensors. The WAN interface is to communicate with a remote server of a service provider. The processor is communicatively coupled to the connection interface, the LAN interface, and the WAN interface. The processor is to receive door data from the plurality of door sensors via the LAN interface, transmit the door data to the remote server for analysis, receive a correction action from the remote server in response to the door data that is transmitted, and execute the corrective action on a door of the plurality of doors via the LAN interface.

Systems and methods for adjusting one or more window of a vehicle cabin are disclosed herein. In an embodiment, a system for adjusting one or more window of a vehicle cabin includes at least one noise sensor, a plurality of windows, and a controller. The at least one noise sensor is configured to detect wind noise at one or more location of the vehicle cabin. The plurality of windows are each adjustable between a plurality of configurations to permit differing levels of air flow between the vehicle cabin and an atmosphere outside of the vehicle cabin. The controller is programmed to cause an adjustment of at least one window of the plurality of windows based on feedback from the at least one noise sensor regarding a detected level of wind noise.
