Test Results

Child Presence Detection

To simulate a child left behind, a baby doll capable of simulated breathing was positioned in various locations in the vehicle. The results of the various positions tested are as follows:

ZONE POSITION CAR SEAT ORIENTATION DETECTED?
2 Rear-facing Yes
3 Front-facing Yes
4 Rear-facing Yes
5 Front-facing Yes
Footwell of 3 n/a Yes
Footwell of 4 n/a Yes
Footwell of 5 n/a Yes

Seat Occupancy Detection

Testing was performed for 2 person and 3 person with baby-doll use cases.

2-Person Occupancy was tested for various pairs of locations in the vehicle. The results of the various positions tested are as follows:

POSITION PAIRS DETECTED?
1 and 2 Yes
3 and 4 Yes
1 and 4 Yes
2 and 3 Yes

3-Person Occupancy with Baby Doll was tested with each adult person entering the car separately. The results test are as follows:

ACTION SEQUENCE ZONE(S) DETECTED
A) Adult person in Zone 3 and Baby doll in Zone 5 Zones 3 and 5
B) Additional person sits in Zone 1 Zones 1, 3, and 5
C) Additional person sits in Zone 2 Zones 1, 2, 3, and 5
D) Zone 2 person exits Zones 1, 3, and 5
E) Zone 1 person exits Zone 3 and 5
F) Zone 3 person exits Zone 5

Intruder Detection was tested with no people/child in the car and only various inanimate objects including a book bag. Intruder zones were defined on the sides of the vehicle along the doors. The example image below shows the intruder detection functionality:
