Abstract

An operating system for moving an item stored in a vehicle storage device is provided. The storage device includes a first storage container and a second storage container disposed in the storage device. The operating system comprises a first operating device connected to the first storage container; a second operating device connected to the second storage container; a user intention detecting device for detecting an intention of a user to take an item; and a controller. The controller is configured to receive an intention signal from the user intention detecting device and control one of the first and second operating devices based on the intention signal obtained to move the first or second storage containers to a use position which is easier for the user to take the item.
