SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ACTIVATING VEHICULAR ELECTROMECHANICAL SYSTEMS USING RF COMMUNICATIONS AND VOICE COMMANDS RECEIVED FROM A USER POSITIONED LOCALLY EXTERNAL TO A VEHICLE

摘要

A system and method for activating electromechanical systems of a vehicle may include at least one antenna coupled to a vehicle and configured to receive wireless communications signals. At least one microphone may be coupled to the vehicle and configured to receive sounds external to the vehicle. A control unit may be in communication with the antenna(s) and be configured to receive the wireless communications signals. A voice recognition system may be in communication with the microphone(s). A transponder/keyfob may be utilized to determine when a user is locally external to the vehicle and, in response to determining that the user is locally external to the vehicle, the microphones may be polled to receive a voice command from the user to activate an electromechanical system.
