    Abstract: An object detection system and method of operation are provided. The system includes at least one non-contact sensor for detecting an object adjacent the motor vehicle within a first field of view. The system also includes a power actuator for moving the powered closure member. An electronic control unit is configured to detect the object adjacent the motor vehicle using the at least one non-contact sensor and control movement of the powered closure member accordingly. The electronic control unit is also configured to detect at least one non-powered closure member is not in a closed position. The electronic control unit adjusts the first field of view of the at least one non-contact sensor to a second field of view and operates the at least one non-contact sensor using the second field of view in response to detecting the at least one non-powered closure member is not in the closed position.

    Abstract: A system for adjusting a vehicle door relative to a vehicle body including an electromotive adjusting device, a control device configured to control the adjusting device and receive an operating command and control the adjusting device based on the receipt of the operating command for adjusting the vehicle door. A sensor device for detecting an object, the control device configured for collision protection monitoring, in order to recognize an object detected by the sensor device in a recognition area as a collision obstacle. The control device is configured to limit an adjustment of the vehicle door on recognition of a collision obstacle to an adjustment path dependent on the location of the collision obstacle, in that the control device determines a projection of the collision obstacle and defines the adjustment path in dependence on the projection.

    Abstract: A power closure member actuation system for moving a vehicle closure member between an open position and a closed position includes an actuator and a user movement sensor configured to sense a motion input from a user on the closure member to move the closure member. A user interface is configured to detect a user interface input to modify at least one stored motion control parameter associated with the movement of the closure member. A controller is configured to modify the at least one stored motion control parameter in response to detecting the user interface input. The controller detects the motion input and in response generates a force command using the at least one stored motion control parameter. The controller then commands movement of the closure member receiving the force command to vary an actuator output force acting on the closure member to move the closure member.

    Abstract: A door control system is provided. Aspects includes a sensor having a field of view in proximity to a door threshold of an entrance to an occupancy area, wherein the sensor is adapted to detect objects in the door threshold and a landing area proximate to the door threshold, wherein the sensor is operated based on a movement of a door in the door threshold. And based at least upon detecting an object within a portion of the door threshold or the landing area, the sensor operable to signal a door operation controller to perform an action.

    Abstract: A computer includes a processor and a memory, the memory storing instructions executable by the processor to actuate a vehicle door to an opened position and to determine a height of an object on a vehicle roof based on a distance from a sensor on the door in the opened position to a top of the object.

    Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media may be configured to control wind up of windows. A window of a vehicle may be controlled to start a window closing motion. Interior activity information for the vehicle may be obtained. The interior activity information may characterize activity inside the vehicle. A window obstruction event for the window may be detected based on the interior activity information. The window obstruction event may include an object obstructing the window closing motion. Responsive to detection of the window obstruction event, the window closing motion may be stopped before the window touches the object.
