Systems, devices, and methods for a touch and/or pressure activated vehicle door latch

A door latch system for a vehicle, comprising:

• a body of the vehicle;
• a door coupled to the body and configured to move between a closed position and an open position for ingress and egress of the vehicle by a user;
• a door latch coupled to the door and configured to prevent the door moving from the closed position to the open position until the door latch is actuated;
• one or more pressure sensors coupled to an interior surface of the door and configured to detect pressure data corresponding to the user pressing the one or more pressure sensors;
• and
• an electronic control unit (ECU) coupled to the door latch and the one or more pressure sensors, the ECU being configured to:
• receive hand scan data corresponding to one or more scans of one or more hands, the hand scan data indicating a size of each of the one or more hands,
• receive the pressure data from the one or more pressure sensors when the user presses the one or more pressure sensors,
• determine a size of a hand of the user based on the received pressure data, and
• actuate the door latch to open the door when the determined size of the hand is equal to or greater than a hand size threshold, the hand size threshold being based on the received hand scan data.
