Vehicle 2nd And 3rd Row Seat Adjustment Based On Anthropometric Characteristics of 2nd And 3rd Row Rear Passenger

摘要

A method may be performed by a sensor arrangement and a controller. The method may include capturing, by the sensor arrangement, data indicative of anthropometric characteristics of an expected 3rd row passenger prior to the passenger entering a vehicle. The method may also include deploying, by a controller, a 3rd row seat and moving a 2nd row seat prior to the expected 3rd row passenger entering the vehicle to a riding position that is based on the characteristics and 2nd row passenger data. The sensor arrangement may include an optical sensor arrangement such as used in a blind-spot detection system for a vehicle.

1. A blind-spot detection system for a vehicle comprising:
an optical sensor arrangement configured to, while the vehicle is moving, capture first data indicative of objects alongside the vehicle, and to, while the vehicle is stopped, capture second data indicative of an expected 3rd row passenger before the passenger enters the vehicle; and at least one controller configured to output an alert in response to the first data, and to move a 2nd row seat to a riding position based on anthropometric characteristics of the passenger that are derived from the second data.
