Abstract
A computer includes a processor and a memory, the memory storing instructions executable by the processor to receive radar data from an ultrawideband radar in a passenger compartment of a vehicle, determine a starting-time for a time-window based on a second derivative of the radar data, identify a motion inside the passenger compartment based on the radar data received during the time-window, and actuate a component of the vehicle based on the identification of the motion.
