Waterproof switch patent

[car home? News]? A few days ago, according to foreign media reports, Apple is applying for a new patent. According to the information released by the United States Patent and Trademark Office, Apple recently applied for an application called "Dynamic Element Protection" (Dynamic? Elements? Protection), which is designed for vehicle safety. The system can detect the danger and make corresponding response, and use it to control the interior of the vehicle.

The system uses sensors built in the car, which can monitor the surrounding objects and other moving elements and take actions according to the monitoring data. For example, when there are parked vehicles around, you can choose to keep the door closed when the vehicle passes, or limit the opening range of the door to prevent scratching.

In addition, the system can manage whether the door or window is closed or open, and can automatically open the door and window. Depending on the specific situation, the system may prevent doors and windows from opening until it is determined to be safe enough.

If the vehicle is partially or completely submerged in water in a more urgent situation, the system will perform a whole set of procedures, including closing windows and locking doors to prevent water from entering the vehicle, unfastening seat belts to ensure that passengers can escape from the vehicle without obstacles, deploying floating devices and sending out distress signals. At the same time, the vehicle will also provide air into the vehicle and ask passengers if they are ready to leave the vehicle. If they get a positive answer, they will open the doors and windows.
