Abstract: The vehicle system includes an output device, a plurality of rear seats, a plurality of belt buckle sensors provided on each of the plurality of rear seats, a plurality of seat belt reminder (SBR) sensors provided on each of the plurality of rear seats, and a controller. The controller is configured to determine one rear seat on which a passenger or an object having a weight equal to or less than a predetermined weight is located based on an output value of the SBR sensor, determine whether a seat belt corresponding to the determined rear seat is worn based on an output value of the belt buckle sensor, and control the output device to output a warning message when the vehicle is turned off and a door of the rear seat is not opened or closed in a state in which the seat belt is worn.

Abstract: An apparatus for managing control authority transition in a vehicle is provided. The apparatus includes a steering device, an acceleration device, a deceleration device, a sensor configured to sense information about a driver of the vehicle, and a control circuit electrically connected with the steering device, the acceleration device, the deceleration device, and the sensor. The control circuit is configured to obtain state information about the driver using the sensor when performing an autonomous control, to receive a control input by the driver to at least one of the steering device, the acceleration device, or the deceleration device, to determine whether to transfer a control authority based on the state information and a reliability of the control input, and to transfer the control authority to the driver when the control authority is determined to transfer.

Abstract: The present invention provides a safety device for cutting off high voltage for a hybrid electric vehicle, which cuts off the connection between an interlock pin and a battery management system to cut off the current flow after electric power is supplied from a high voltage battery, thus preventing the occurrence of arc when an external connected is disconnected.
