Patent number: 11721033Abstract: An object detection apparatus includes a first camera unit, a second camera unit, and a control unit. The first camera unit includes one or more cameras, and is configured to capture an image around a vehicle. The second camera unit includes one or more cameras, and is configured to capture an image of an area ahead of the vehicle. The control unit is configured to: determine a displacement of a feature point positioned in a common area from the image acquired via the first camera unit; determine a pixel displacement of the feature point in the image acquired via the second camera unit; and determine distance information to an object recognized in the image captured via the second camera unit based on the displacement of the feature point and the pixel displacement of the feature point.Type: GrantFiled: March 25, 2022Date of Patent: August 8, 2023Assignee: Hyundai Mobis Co., Ltd.Inventor: Heung Rae Cho

Patent number: 11433852Abstract: A remote control system for a vehicle including: a user terminal; and a vehicle configured to transmit/receive information to/from the user terminal through a communication network. The vehicle performs first authentication on a user by comparing a captured image of the user to a reference image in response to an unlocking signal or start-up request signal received from the user terminal, and transmits second authentication pre-processing information to the user terminal, the second authentication pre-processing information being obtained by generating an encryption key from a feature vector extracted from the image of the user and encrypting unique information of the user. The user terminal performs second authentication on the user by decrypting the second authentication pre-processing information received from the vehicle with a decryption key stored therein.Type: GrantFiled: February 26, 2020Date of Patent: September 6, 2022Assignee: Hyundai Mobis Co., Ltd.Inventor: Heung Rae Cho
