Abstract
A method operates a seat belt system in a motor vehicle. The method uses a 3-D imaging system to determine when a tongue of the seat belt system is approaching a buckle of the seat belt system. A buckle presenter extends the buckle from a seat of the motor vehicle, toward an occupant of the motor vehicle when the 3-D imaging system determines that the tongue is approaching the buckle.
