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.
Claims20
A system comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the system to perform operations comprising:
- controlling a window of a vehicle to start a window closing motion;
- obtaining interior activity information for the vehicle, the interior activity information characterizing activity inside the vehicle;
- detecting a window obstruction event for the window based on the interior activity information, the window obstruction event including an object obstructing the window closing motion;
- and
- responsive to detection of the window obstruction event, stopping the window closing motion before the window touches the object.
A method implemented by a computing system including one or more processors and storage media storing machine-readable instructions, wherein the method is performed using the one or more processors, the method comprising:
- controlling a window of a vehicle to start a window closing motion;
- obtaining interior activity information for the vehicle, the interior activity information characterizing activity inside the vehicle;
- detecting a window obstruction event for the window based on the interior activity information, the window obstruction event including an object obstructing the window closing motion;
- and
- responsive to detection of the window obstruction event, stopping the window closing motion before the window touches the object.
A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions that, when executed, cause one or more processors to perform:
- controlling a window of a vehicle to start a window closing motion;
- obtaining interior activity information for the vehicle, the interior activity information characterizing activity inside the vehicle;
- detecting a window obstruction event for the window based on the interior activity information, the window obstruction event including an object obstructing the window closing motion;
- and
- responsive to detection of the window obstruction event, stopping the window closing motion before the window touches the object.
