Control apparatus of automatic door

A control apparatus of an automatic door is adapted such that a time period required for opening a door to a full-opened state is stored and a target time period required for opening the door to a half-opened state or to a 3/4-opened state is determined by evaluating the stored time period for opening the door to a full-opened state. In an operation mode for opening the door to a half-opened state or a 3/4-opened state, comparison is made of a lapse time period of the current operation for opening the door and the target time period is calculated, in advance whereupon a motor is brought to a stop upon coincidence thereof.

Enhanced service

A system for a vehicle, such as an autonomous taxi or private hire vehicle, is operable to actuate 235 closing of a power-operated vehicle door when it is determined that the door is open 220 and the vehicle is unoccupied 215. A fare is determined 240 when the door is in a latched position, preferably after the system has actuated 235 closing of the door, and a message 245 indicating the fare is sent to a user. The system may detect objects located in the vehicle 210 or obstacles preventing the door from closing 225, notify the user via a message 230, and continue accruing the fare until the objects or obstacles are removed. Optionally, the fare is determined when the user is beyond a predetermined distance from the vehicle.
