Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current vehicle interior component control systems lack real-time monitoring and adjustment capabilities, leading to potential damage or injury from interference between components and occupants during motion, and the integration of additional sensors complicates the intelligent cockpit design.
Innovation Solution
Incorporating an interior component with an infrared reflective material and a TOF camera to accurately determine the pose of occupants and components, enabling precise adjustment strategies that avoid interference.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If additional sensors are added to acquire motion data of interior components for real-time monitoring and adjustment, then the capability to prevent damage or injury is improved, but the device complexity increases and integrated design of the intelligent cockpit is compromised
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the function of motion detection into the existing TOF camera system by equipping interior components with infrared reflective materials. This integration allows the single TOF camera to detect both occupant presence and interior component motion, eliminating the need for separate sensors and reducing system complexity while maintaining safety capabilities
Solution Approach 2:
The TOF camera is designed to perform multiple functions: detecting occupant presence, determining occupant pose, and monitoring interior component motion. By making the detection system universal, the patent avoids adding specialized sensors for each function, thereby reducing overall device complexity while achieving real-time monitoring and injury prevention
2Adaptability or versatility
If traditional control logic is used for interior components, then the integrated design is maintained, but the capability to implement real-time monitoring and adjustment is insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a feedback mechanism where the TOF camera continuously captures data on both occupant position and interior component motion. This real-time feedback enables the control system to dynamically adjust interior component movement based on detected occupant pose, thereby improving adaptability and preventing harmful interactions without compromising protection capability

AI summary
The present disclosure provides a vehicle interior system, a method for adjusting an interior component, a device, and a medium. The vehicle interior system includes: an interior component including an infrared reflective material; a TOF camera provided in a cockpit of a vehicle; and an adjustment controller, including: a data acquisition module configured to acquire detection data from the TOF camera; a pose determination module configured to determine a pose of at least one occupant based on the detection data from the TOF camera; and an interior adjustment module configured to determine an adjustment strategy for the interior component based on a pose of at least one interior component and the pose of the occupant, to provide a best match between the pose of the interior component and the pose of the at least one occupant. In the present disclosure, the interior component is provided with the infrared reflective material, and the TOF camera is used to acquire the data to enable accurate determination of the pose of the occupant and the pose of the interior component, such that the adjustment strategy for the interior component can be accurately calculated, to avoid accidental interference between the interior component and the occupant during adjustment of the interior component.
