A power tailgate control device and method can prevent a collision with an obstacle during the opening or closing of a tailgate by determining whether an obstacle is present or not and whether the collision with the obstacle would occur or not by using a rear lamp and a rear camera. The power tailgate control device includes: a command input unit receiving a tailgate open or close command from an operator; a rear camera mounted on a tailgate; and a controller controlling the opening or closing of the tailgate by determining whether a collision with an obstacle would occur or not, on the basis of R values of pixels in a difference image between a first image captured in a state in which a rear lamp is turned on and a second image captured in a state in which the rear lamp is turned off.

Power tailgate control device and method

A width variable structure using mecanum wheels is provided, which includes a plurality of mecanum wheels, a plurality of links connecting the mecanum wheels, and motors mounted on the mecanum wheels to transfer driving forces to the links, respectively. Since the width of the structure in the horizontal and vertical directions can be adjusted using the driving forces of the mecanum wheels, components such as actuators are omitted in the overall assembly.

Width variable structure of moving and transport means using mecanum wheels

The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for determining a head position of a vehicle driver that has non-limiting advantages of enhanced accuracy and/or precision without excessive increase of manufacturing cost of the vehicle. A vehicle is provided with at least one of a left rearview mirror and a right rearview mirror, a head position of a vehicle driver may be determined on the basis of at least one of vertical and horizontal inclination angles of the at least one rearview mirror.
