Embodiment Construction

[0029] figure 1 A flow chart showing the main steps of a method for controlling a vehicle hatch.

[0030] The identification 1 of the user is carried out in a first step of the method. The identification 1 takes place on the basis of identification features carried by the user. This is a transponder that can communicate bidirectionally with a correspondingly designed vehicle-side transponder. Identification 1 takes place if the user is located in the area behind the vehicle or is close to this area. In this case, the reversing camera of the vehicle is activated and an image is recorded. In the simplest case only a single image recording 2 is performed, preferably however an image sequence is recorded as a movie.

[0031] The captured image is then subjected to an image analysis process 3 in the next step. Within the scope of the image evaluation process 3 , objects with specific features are recognized on the basis of their outline, shape or size. Image evaluation takes ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for controlling a vehicle boot lid of a vehicle, comprising the following steps: A user (11) is identified (1) in the vicinity of the boot lid (9); at least one image of the user (11) is produced (2) by means of a camera (10); the recorded image is evaluated (3) as to whether the boot lid (9) requires (4) to be opened; and if necessary, the boot lid (9) is opened (6).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for controlling a hatch of a vehicle. Background technique [0002] Vehicles with a hatch (rear hatch or boot lid) can be opened manually by operating a switch in or on the vehicle or by operating a radio key. [0003] Vehicles are also known in which the opening of the hatch takes place automatically after authentication of the authorized user. [0004] An access control device for vehicles is known from document DE 198 18 263 A1, in which the user carries a portable identification device which communicates with a transmitter-receiver unit provided in the motor vehicle. The user is identified by means of a sensor device, preferably by means of a motion sensor. After the evaluation, unlocking and thus entry into the motor vehicle are possible, if necessary. [0005] In document EP1571601A2 it is proposed to provide the driver with an information carrier in order to enable certain vehicle functions after authenticati...
