September 29, 2022: Recently, BYD disclosed a patent called "door control method and system, vehicle". If this patent can be widely used, it is expected to significantly reduce the "door killing" accident caused by vehicle occupants who neglect to observe and blindly open the door when getting off the car.
Foreign warning sign
Since the popularity of motor vehicles, the driver and passengers of the vehicle have opened the door at will due to lack of safety awareness or negligence, resulting in accidents caused by collisions with other motor vehicles or non-motor vehicles, and tragedies that cause casualties occur from time to time, which is difficult to eliminate. Whether at home or abroad, just open the search engine and search, you can see a lot of related news.
Domestic "door killing" related news
Now, this patent released by BYD can automatically detect the surrounding area of the car door. If there is a corresponding target and there is a collision risk, it will automatically limit the width of the door opening, making the door unable to be opened significantly, effectively reducing the collision risk between the door and surrounding targets.
BYD patent
This is a great creativity. It truly puts technology people first and uses technical means to reduce the chance of human error. Haohanjun wants to give BYD a big thumbs up here! I hope this patent can be applied to vehicles as soon as possible, and I also hope that similar technologies can be popularized so that all cars can have this function and reduce accidents.
