Abstract
A processor-implemented vehicle controlling method includes: determining whether an object in a vehicle is a living object based on radio detection and ranging (radar) information received from a radar sensor; in response to a determination that the object is a living object, determining bioinformation of the object based on the radar information; and adjusting a temperature in the vehicle based on the bioinformation and temperature information received from a temperature sensor.
Claims26
A processor-implemented vehicle controlling method comprising:
- determining whether an object in a vehicle is a living object based on radio detection and ranging (radar) information received from a radar sensor when an engine of the vehicle stops or a driver's seat is empty;
- in response to a determination that the object is a living object, determining bioinformation of the object based on the radar information;
- determining, based on the bioinformation, a temperature profile from among various temperature profiles corresponding to various types of living objects;
- and
- adjusting a temperature in the vehicle based on the temperature profile and temperature information received from a temperature sensor.
A vehicle controlling apparatus comprising:
- a radio detection and ranging (radar) sensor configured to radiate a detection signal to an object in a vehicle and receive a reflected signal from the object, and generate radar information by processing the reflected signal;
- and
- one or more processors configured to determine whether the object in the vehicle is a living object based on the radar information when an engine of the vehicle stops or a driver's seat is empty, determine bioinformation of the object based on the radar information in response to the object being determined to be a living object, determine, based on the bioinformation, a temperature profile from among various temperature profiles corresponding to various types of living objects, and adjust a temperature in the vehicle based on the temperature profile and temperature information received from a temperature sensor.
A vehicle comprising:
- a vehicle controlling apparatus comprising one or more processors, and a radio detection and ranging (radar) sensor;
- a cooling device;
- and
- a shading device,
- wherein the radar sensor is configured to radiate a detection signal to an object in the vehicle and receive a reflected signal from the object, and generate radar information by processing the received reflected signal, and
- the one or more processors are configured to determine whether the object in the vehicle is a living object based on the radar information when an engine of the vehicle stops or a driver's seat is empty, determine bioinformation of the object based on the radar information in response to the object being determined to be a living object, determine, based on the bioinformation, a temperature profile from among various temperature profiles corresponding to various types of living objects, and adjust a temperature in the vehicle using the cooling device or the shading device based on the temperature profile and temperature information received from a temperature sensor.
