Abstract: A method for actuating an access system of a motor vehicle involves a camera arrangement detecting at least one foot of a person. An orientation of the foot is determined and based on the determined orientation, a line of sight of the person is then determined. When the line of sight is directed towards at least one tailgate and/or door of the motor vehicle, at least one tailgate and/or door is unlocked and/or automatically actuated to open by the access system. When, however, the line of sight is not directed towards at least one tailgate and/or door, tailgates and/or doors are locked and/or automatically actuated to close by the access system.

Abstract: A method for actuating an access system of a motor vehicle uses an ultra-wideband (UWB) unit operated in a radar mode to detect a position of a person approaching the motor vehicle and perform a body position scan of the person in order to detect a body position of the person. An orientation of the face of the person and/or a line of sight of the person is determined by the UWB unit. The access system is actuated when this person looks in the direction of a vehicle door of the motor vehicle.

Abstract: An ultra-wideband positioning involves a positioning device establishing a bidirectional ultra-wideband data communication between the positioning device and at least one ultra-wideband communication-enabled object approaching the motor vehicle. First positions and trajectories of the at least one object relative to the motor vehicle are determined by the positioning device using data packets exchanged in the context of the ultra-wideband data communication. Subsequently an ultra-wideband positioning and distance measurement are performed by the positioning device. Second positions and trajectories of the at least one object relative to the motor vehicle are determined by the positioning device emitting at least one ultra-wideband transmission signal and detecting its backscattered radio signals reflected back from at least one object with a time delay.

Abstract: A method involves monitoring an outer zone, which adjoins an inner zone directly surrounding the motor vehicle, by a monitoring device of the motor vehicle, such that a current position of the user relative to the motor vehicle is determined by the monitoring device if the monitoring shows the user is in the outer zone. A close proximity monitoring device of the motor vehicle scanning the inner zone is activated if the monitoring shows the user is crossing from the outer zone into the inner zone, such that the current position of the user relative to the motor vehicle is only determined by the close proximity monitoring device if the user is located in the inner zone. At least one of the points of access to the vehicle interior of the motor vehicle is released for the user after the monitoring has shown that they are in the inner zone.

Abstract: A method for determining the position of a mobile electronic identification device relative to a motor vehicle that can be unlocked by the identification device is provided. In a step a) at least one signal is transmitted from the motor vehicle to the identification device via the first communication connection, the signal containing the transmission time of the at least one signal. In a step b) the transmission time and reception time of the at least one signal received by the identification device is stored in the identification device. In a step c) a data packet is transmitted from the identification device to the motor vehicle via the second communication connection, said data packet containing the stored transmission and reception times of the signals transmitted in step a).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a household appliance control unit comprising a casing and a projector that is placed in the casing, that transmits images preloaded by the producer to a surface and is suitable for enabling the user to input data via the image transmitted and enabling one or more than one household appliance to be controlled according to the data input.
