Abstract
A system for operating a gate of a vehicle may include a laser diode unit that shows step positions for operating the gate by radiating a plurality of laser points onto the ground, an ultrasonic wave sensor unit that measures the distance between the bottom of the rear bumper and the step positions and senses step input from a change in the distance due to the user stepping on the step positions, a gate driving unit that opens/closes the gate, using a driving part, and a control unit that controls the opening/closing operation of the gate driving unit on the basis of information on a step-on status kept for a predetermined time by the user which may be found by the ultrasonic wave sensor unit.
