Patent number: 11794765Abstract: The disclosure is generally directed to systems and methods for receiving proximity characteristics at a nomadic device, the proximity characteristics including mapped obstruction data identifying locations of one or more obstructions of an area surrounding a vehicle; calculating at last one unobstructed pose orientations for establishing a secure connection between the nomadic device and the vehicle based on the proximity characteristics, the unobstructed pose orientation determined at least in part on the mapped obstruction data; and displaying the unobstructed pose orientation on the nomadic device within an array of augmented reality pose orientations on the nomadic device. In some embodiments, the systems and methods include displaying an interactive overlay as a direction to a user of the nomadic device, the interactive overlay coaching the user to locate to the at least one unobstructive pose orientation.Type: GrantFiled: August 25, 2021Date of Patent: October 24, 2023Assignee: Ford Global Technologies, LLCInventors: Tom Nelson, Hemanth Yadav Aradhyula, Erick Michael Lavoie, Ryan Joseph Gorski

Publication number: 20230159019Abstract: A system for a vehicle includes a vehicle processor disposed to control a drive system, and a memory for storing executable instructions. The vehicle processor is programmed to execute the instructions to determine, via the vehicle processor, a localization of a mobile device using a tethered wireless connection between the mobile device and the vehicle, receive, via the processor, an absolute heading of the mobile device, determine, via the vehicle processor, based on the localization of the mobile device, a relative bearing angle from the mobile device to the vehicle. The system may use the tethered wireless connection and the relative bearing angle from the mobile device to the vehicle to determine that a user is actuating a Human Machine Interface (HMI) element indicative of user attention to a remote parking maneuver and complete the remote parking maneuver.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 24, 2021Publication date: May 25, 2023Applicant: Ford Global Technologies, LLCInventors: Hamid M. Golgiri, Vivekanandh Elangovan, Tom Nelson, Erick Michael Lovoie, Ryan Joseph Gorski

Patent number: 11535194Abstract: Systems and methods for reducing latency in vehicle access requests are provided herein. An example method includes receiving a first vehicle access request from a user, determining a pre-authenticated status for the user based on authenticating the user in response to the first vehicle access request, determining a pre-authorized status for the user based on the determination of the pre-authenticated status, receiving a second first vehicle access request from the user, and granting access to the vehicle when the user has the pre-authenticated status. Access to the vehicle can be conditioned upon the pre-authorized status of the user.Type: GrantFiled: June 18, 2020Date of Patent: December 27, 2022Assignee: Ford Global Technologies, LLCInventors: Ali Hassani, Hamid M. Golgiri, Ryan Joseph Gorski, Daniel M. King

Publication number: 20220126788Abstract: A system for secure sensor operation is provided. A sensor circuit includes a smart controller configured to provide trusted data. An operational circuit includes an operational controller configured to, responsive to receipt of a request from the sensor circuit, perform an identity verification using a cryptographic challenge to authenticate the sensor circuit before utilizing the trusted data.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 23, 2020Publication date: April 28, 2022Inventors: Ali HASSANI, Ryan Joseph GORSKI

Patent number: 10848954Abstract: A vehicle includes a search system including at least one antenna, a wireless transceiver control module, and a processor. The processor receives a vehicle access request. The processor then sends a search instruction to the wireless transceiver control module to search for an authorized wireless device within a predefined distance of the vehicle. The processor receives a response, to the request, from the wireless transceiver control module indicating search results and a state indicator indicating a state of the search system. When the state indicator indicates a state predefined as corresponding to a final result state for fulfilling the request, the processor utilizes the search results to determine if the access request should be granted and when the state indicator indicates a state predefined as corresponding to an in-progress state, which will result in an improved response at a future time, the processor re-instructs the search and repeats response reception.Type: GrantFiled: September 6, 2019Date of Patent: November 24, 2020Assignee: Ford Global Technologies, LLCInventors: Ryan Joseph Gorski, William Ko, Ahmet Cinar, Fouad Bounefissa, Howard Paul Tsvi Linden

Publication number: 20200258330Abstract: A vehicle includes doors, antennas, and processors. Each of the doors include an interface. The processors: (1) define, via the antennas, first zones and a second zone encompassing the first zones and surrounding the vehicle, each of the first zones associated with each of the doors; (2) in response to a mobile device entering the second zone, determine whether the mobile device is authenticated; (3) in response to the mobile device being authenticated, determine whether a user-interaction with the interface of one of the doors has occurred and determine, via the antennas, whether the mobile device is positioned in one of the first zones corresponding to said door; and (4) in response to detecting that the user-interaction has occurred and that the mobile device is positioned in said first zone, cause said door to unlock.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 11, 2019Publication date: August 13, 2020Inventor: Ryan Joseph Gorski
