Abstract: A system for opening or closing a closure member of a vehicle and an accelerometer calibration method are provided. The system includes an actuator assembly with an electric motor operably coupled to an extensible member for opening or closing the closure member. The system also includes an accelerometer configured to sense movement of the closure member and output an accelerometer signal. An actuator controller is coupled to electric motor and to the accelerometer and is configured to determine an adjusted accelerometer signal as the accelerometer signal adjusted using one of a plurality of predetermined compensation factors determined through an accelerometer calibration process temporally before installation of the accelerometer in the vehicle. The actuator controller then controls the opening or closing of the closure member using the electric motor based on the movement of the closure member as represented by the adjusted accelerometer signal.

Abstract: A method and a device for closing a door on a door opening of a vehicle are provided. The closing device includes a seal formed between the door and the door opening for separating an interior space and an exterior space from each other when the door is in a closed position. The device also includes a door drive for moving the door and a controller coupled to the door drive for controlling movement of the door based on an operating request of a user. The controller includes a condition monitoring unit configured to determine and use at least one variable state variable chosen from the group consisting of the device, the door, the door opening, and the installation environment of the door. The controller is configured to generate a value of at least one closing parameter for closing the door depending on the at least one variable state variable.

Abstract: An actuator system for a closure panel of a vehicle and method of operation are provided. The system includes a biasing member adapted to apply a biasing member force to the closure panel. The system also includes an actuator assembly comprising an actuator housing. The actuator assembly also includes a motor disposed in the actuator housing and configured to rotate a motor shaft operably coupled to an extensible member coupled to one of a body and the closure panel for opening or closing the closure panel. The system also includes an actuator controller configured to control the motor to output an adjusted force based on the biasing member force to move the closure panel.
