Abstract
A method for opening a vehicle door may include capturing a first image when a first condition is met and capturing a second image when a second condition is met. The first condition is one of the vehicle is parked, or the door is locked. The second condition is one of the vehicle is deactivated, or the door is unlocked. The method may further include detecting an object outside based on the first and second images, determining whether the detected object is within a projected path of the door moving from a first position to a second position, and controlling operation of an actuator configured to move the door, such that if the detected object is determined to be within the projected path of the door, the actuator does not move the door according to the projected path.
