Squeeze protection system for a window lifter system in a motor vehicle as well as method of controlling a window lifter system

摘要

A squeeze protection system for a window lifter system in a motor vehicle includes a control that drives a drive motor to move a window pane, and a detection unit that determines whether an obstacle is in the path of the window pane. The detection unit makes an image available to the control to detect an obstacle. The detection unit is part of a vehicle surrounding detection system that can detect the presence of another vehicle, for instance, in a driver's blind spot. In addition, the control comprises a method for controlling a window lifter system in the motor vehicle.
