Control device and control system
A control device of the present disclosure includes a receiver configured to receive a function enabling signal transmitted from a portable machine used to manipulate a vehicle, a determination unit configured to measure a predetermined time since the receiver receives the function enabling signal and determine whether the predetermined time elapses, and an opening and closing body controller configured to control opening and closing of an opening and closing body of the vehicle. The opening and closing body controller controls an opening operation of the opening and closing body based on user's action detected by a sensor, which is provided in or around the opening and closing body to detect the user's action, before the determination unit determines that the predetermined time elapses and after the receiver receives the function enabling signal from the portable machine.
1. A control device comprising:
a receiver configured to receive a function-enabling signal transmitted from a portable machine used to manipulate a vehicle;
a determination unit configured to measure a time from when the receiver receives the function-enabling signal and determine whether a predetermined time has elapsed;
an opening and closing body controller configured to control opening and closing of an opening and closing body of the vehicle; and
a distance determination unit configured to determine a distance from the vehicle to the portable machine,
wherein the opening and closing body controller controls an opening operation of the opening and closing body based on an action of a person detected by a sensor, which is provided in or around the opening and closing body to detect the action of the person, before the determination unit determines that the predetermined time has elapsed and after the receiver receives the function-enabling signal from the portable machine,
wherein the opening and closing body controller controls the opening operation of the opening and closing body when a distance, which is determined by the distance determination unit when the sensor detects the action of the person, is shorter than a distance, which is determined by the distance determination unit when the receiver receives the function-enabling signal,
wherein the portable machine includes a manipulation unit, and
wherein the function enabling signal is transmitted to the control device in response to manipulation of the manipulation unit.
2. The control device according to claim 1 , further comprising an authentication unit configured to authenticate the portable machine,
wherein the authentication unit authenticates the portable machine at least when the sensor detects the action of the person.
3. The control device according to claim 1 , wherein the function-enabling signal is transmitted from the portable machine in response to an operation input to the portable machine.
