Abstract: A method for achieving interactions between user and automobile is disclosed. Specifically, the automobile is equipped with multiple distance sensors and multiple multi-dimensional sensors, and has a processor that is constituted to a keyless entry system with an electronic car key. During conducting the method, the distance sensors detect an approaching object, and the multi-dimensional sensors collect multi-dimensional parameters of the approaching object, such that the processor is able to judge an object action of the approaching object based on the multi-dimensional parameters. As a result, in case of the object action is determined to correspond with one of reference object actions, the automobile is controlled by the processor so as to conduct a specific action, for example, unlocking a door lock, opening a car door, adjusting an illumination of at least one car headlight, and starting automobile engine.

Abstract: A superficial foreign bodies detecting system for ultrasonic sensor is disclosed. The system comprises a micro controller which comprises a main controlling unit, a driving signal generating unit, a signal receiving unit, and a residual vibration detecting unit. The driving signal generating unit is controlled by the main controlling unit so as to transmit a first sensor driving signal to the ultrasonic sensor, thereby making the sensing head to output an ultrasonic wave.

Abstract: A wireless tire pressure monitor system has multiple pressure sensors and at least one receiving module. The pressure sensors detect tire pressures and transmit wireless signals representing the tire pressure. The at least one receiving module is mounted on a chassis of a vehicle at a geometric center of the pressure sensors and has an annular antenna. The annular antenna receives wireless signals from the pressure sensors equally. Therefore, because distances between the receiving module and the pressure sensors are the same and the annular antenna has good receiving characteristics, the wireless tire pressure monitor system has a high hit ratio for receiving wireless signals.
