Abstract
Systems and methods to detect obstruction include detecting, by a sensor, a first parameter that corresponds to a path of traversal of a tonneau cover, determining, based on a comparison between the first parameter and a second parameter, a presence of an obstacle in the path of traversal of the tonneau cover, and modifying operation of the vehicle in response to the presence of the obstacle in the path of traversal of the tonneau cover.
