Abstract: A vehicle door interlock system includes a logic processor operatively connected to a door of a vehicle positioned with respect to a pedestrian egress path. A first input to the logic processor comprises a velocity detection signal that determines a velocity of the vehicle. A second input comprises an object detection signal that determines movement of an object toward the vehicle, travelling along a path that would pass in front of the door. A third input comprises an open door signal. The logic processor provides a signal to an interlock device to prevent the door from being opened when the logic processor determines any one of: the vehicle moving based on the velocity detection signal, the object being at a distance and moving in a direction to intersect the pedestrian egress path based on the object detection signal, and lack of open door signal from the operator of the vehicle.

Abstract: A method, non-transitory computer readable medium, and apparatus for dispensing a beverage are disclosed.
