摘要： The apparatus and method includes a panel movable between at least two positions. An electric motor has a rotating armature. A multiple pole magnet is mounted on the armature. A sensor detects the passage of each magnet pole and generates an output signal. A control measures time periods between each pole passage. An average time period is computed over a predetermined number of time periods. The difference between average time periods is computed and compared with a threshold difference to determine if an obstacle is present in the path of movement of the panel. Transient counts are accumulated for increasing average time periods over a number of time period samples as a measurement of the force exerted on an obstacle by the panel to detect an obstacle.

摘要： Active control of a vehicle bumper damper is provided. A damper controller receives data from a collision data acquisition device and sends a control signal to configure an active damper based on the received data. During a collision or immediately preceding a collision the vehicle bumper damper is adjusted using the damper controller mechanism that responds to real-time collision information. A vehicle including an active control system for a vehicle bumper is provided. The vehicle includes a collision data acquisition device, a damper controller coupled to the collision data acquisition device, and an active damper coupled to the damper controller. The damper controller receives data from the collision data acquisition device and sends a control signal to configure the active damper based on the received data.
