    Abstract: A battery management apparatus according to the present disclosure includes a memory to store a charging sequence table that records a correspondence relationship between first to mth temperature ranges, first to mth SOC lists and first to mth current lists, a sensing unit to detect a voltage, a current and a temperature of a battery, and a control unit. Each of the SOC lists defines first to nth SOC ranges. The control unit determines a current SOC of the battery based on the detected voltage and the detected current. The control unit determines a temperature range of interest, a SOC list of interest and a current list of interest based on the detected temperature. The control unit determines a remaining charging time required to charge the battery to a target SOC based on the detected current, the current SOC, the SOC list of interest and the current list of interest.

  • Patent number: 11077857
    Abstract: A device for controlling alcohol interlock according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a sensor for obtaining position information and breath information of a fellow passenger, and a controller that determines whether a blood alcohol concentration of the fellow passenger is measured based on the position information and the breath information of the fellow passenger, and determines whether to re-measure a blood alcohol concentration based on the determination result. Thus, the device may prevent surrogate measurement of the fellow passenger, so that a driver's own blood alcohol concentration may be measured accurately, and drunk driving of a driver may be fundamentally prevented.

    Abstract: An apparatus for controlling alcohol interlock includes a sensor that senses an environment of a driver's seat and a camera that obtains a face image of a passenger and an image of exhalation of the passenger. A controller activates a start lock mode of a vehicle and determines whether a condition for detecting components of the exhalation of the passenger is satisfied based on the environment of the driver's seat. The controller determines whether the exhalation of the passenger is exhalation of a driver based on the face image of the passenger and the image of the exhalation of the passenger, and determines whether to detect alcohol concentration in the exhalation of the passenger based on the determination result.
