Notification system of a car and method of controlling therefor
First Claim
1. A notification system of a vehicle, the notification system comprising:
- a sensing unit configured to detect an object outside the vehicle or an operational status of a function of the vehicle;
an output unit; and
a controller configured to;
determine that a touch has been detected on an interior handle of a door of the vehicle; and
based on the determination that the touch has been detected on the interior handle of the door;
determine that the object outside the vehicle detected by the sensing unit is within a predetermined distance in a rearward direction from the door on which the touch has been detected, or that an operational status of a function of the vehicle detected by the sensing unit indicates that the function is not yet complete; and
control the output unit to output a notification based on the determination that the detected object outside the vehicle is within the predetermined distance in the rearward direction from the door, or that the detected operational status of the function of the vehicle indicates that the function is not yet complete,wherein the controller is further configured to, based on the determination that the detected operational status of the function of the vehicle indicates that the function is not yet complete;
control the output unit to output the notification to a window of the door on which the touch has been detected.

Abstract
A notification system of a vehicle includes a sensing unit that detects an object outside the vehicle or detects an operational status of a function of the vehicle; an output unit; and a controller. The controller is configured to determine whether a touch has been detected on an interior handle of a door of the vehicle. If a touch is detected on the interior handle, the controller determines that an object outside the vehicle detected by the sensor is within a predetermined distance in a rearward direction from the door on which the touch was detected, or determines that an operational status of a function of the vehicle detected by the sensor indicates that the function is not yet complete; and controls the output unit to output a notification corresponding to the detected object outside the vehicle or the detected operational status of the function of the vehicle.

16. A method of controlling a notification system of a vehicle, the method comprising:
-
determining that a touch has been detected on an interior handle of a door of the vehicle; and based on the determination that the touch has been detected on the interior handle of the door; determining that an object outside the vehicle is within a predetermined distance in a rearward direction from the door on which the touch has been detected, or that an operational status of a function of the vehicle indicates that the function is not yet complete; and outputting a notification based on the determination that the detected object outside the vehicle is within the predetermined distance in the rearward direction from the door, or that the detected operational status of the function of the vehicle indicates that the function is not yet complete, wherein outputting a notification further comprises; based on the determination that the detected operational status of the function of the vehicle indicates that the function is not yet complete, outputting the notification to a window of the door on which the touch has been detected.
