Abstract: The invention relates to a method for opening a movable panel of a motor vehicle, comprising the following steps of: —projection of at least one light spot (102) with which an authorized user (U) has to interact, —determining if there is an intention to open the panel (100), and if so—authorizing the opening of the panel (100). The step of determining if there is an intention to open the panel (100) comprises: —acquiring a measurement signal of a movement performed by the user (U), —filtering the signal, —identifying if the movement performed by the user (U) is in a predefined correct order with at least the following steps: moving the user's part towards the light spot (102), keeping it in the light spot (102) and moving it outside the light spot (102), and —determining if the movement performed by the user (U) meets a predefined specific time condition.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for locating a marking unit of an object by means of at least one base unit, wherein during at least one predetermined transmission time, the marking unit emits a transmission telegram and operates a reception apparatus in order to receive a response telegram from one of the at least one base units as a response to the relevant transmission telegram. The invention provides for the marking unit to define the at least one transmission time in a synchronous mode by means of a predetermined transmission plan assigned to the at least one base unit.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for evaluating gestures based on data of a sensor having LDPD diodes.The following steps are provided: sequentially measuring by the sensor in order to obtain a gesture, by measuring firstly extraneous light to obtain 2D data in the form of reflectance data, secondly laser light in order to obtain 3D data in the form of distance data, and thirdly residual light; obtaining movement artifacts in the 2D data and/or the 3D data which were caused in moved objects by residual charges; detecting a movement by only processing the movement artifacts; and evaluating the detected movement with regard to possible gestures.It is now the object of the invention to lower the structural requirements relating to the determination of gestures.

Abstract: A method which includes detecting a user input based on a gesture, acquiring image data and performing segmentation based on the acquired image data, and determining an object with an outline. A reference point is determined based on the object, a distance between each of a number of points located on the outline of the object and the reference point is determined and a measured distance profile is generated based on these distances. A gesture is determined based on the measured distance profile and an output signal is generated and output based on the gesture determined. A device for detecting a user input based on a gesture including an acquisition unit, a segmentation unit, a profile computing unit, an allocation unit, and an output unit (8).

Abstract: A system and method for operating a movable component of a vehicle. The system involves a control device that assigns a trajectory to the movable component and determines a control signal for operating the movable component based on the trajectory and a gesture. The assignment and control signal are determined using a tangent of the trajectory and/or an angle formed by the tangent and a reference direction relative to the vehicle. This approach effectively considers the vehicle's approach using straightforward techniques. The disclosure also encompasses a control device, a vehicle incorporating the control device, and a computer program for implementing the method.
