RAIN ONSET DETECTION GLAZING AUTO-CLOSE

摘要

A vehicle system may include a plurality of exterior capacitive sensors, such as door handles, and a controller in communication with the plurality of capacitive sensors. The controller may be configured to identify a rain condition based on sensor data received from at least one of the exterior capacitive sensors of the vehicle; ensure an absence of a key fob in proximity of the at least one locked handle and an absence of a subsequent door opening occurrence when unlocked to confirm the rain condition; and initiate a closure action to a power actuator associated with an open vehicle window for a confirmed rain condition.

1. A method, comprising:
identifying, by a vehicle controller, a rain condition based on sensor data received from at least one capacitive handle of a vehicle; ensuring an absence of a key fob in proximity of the at least one capacitive handle and an absence of a door opening occurrence to confirm the rain condition; and initiating a closure action to a power actuator associated with an open vehicle window for the confirmed rain condition.
