Abstract
A system for detecting an intent to open a hatch of a vehicle includes an identifier having means for recording the intent to open a hatch, where the identifier authenticates itself with an electronic control unit, and receives from the ECU a request for confirmation of intent to open a hatch. Following receipt of the request for confirmation of intent to open a hatch, the existence of a command confirming intent to open a hatch in a memory in the identifier is verified. When the command is initiated, a command signal is sent corresponding to the command confirming intention to open a hatch. The electronic control unit is integrated in the vehicle and authenticates the identifier, locates the identifier in proximity to the hatch, sends the request for confirmation of intent to open a hatch, and receives the command signal corresponding to the command confirming intent to open a hatch.
