Vehicle seat adjustment systems
First Claim
1. A vehicle seat adjustment system for a vehicle, comprising:
- a front seat of the vehicle;
one or more passenger seats behind the front seat;
an input device configured to receive an input from a user for adjusting positions of the front seat;
a first actuator configured to adjust positions of the front seat;
a second actuator configured to adjust positions of the one or more passenger seats;
a controller communicatively coupled to the input device, the first actuator, and the second actuator, the controller comprising at least one processor and at least one memory storing computer readable and executable instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, causes the controller to;
receive the input from the input device;
instruct the first actuator to move the front seat in a longitudinal direction for a first distance in response to the received input; and
instruct the second actuator to move the one or more passenger seats in the longitudinal direction for a second distance in response to the received input,wherein the first actuator moves the front seat in the longitudinal direction for the first distance before or after the second actuator moves the one or more passenger seats in the longitudinal direction for the second distance in response to the received input.

Abstract
Vehicle seat adjustment systems that move more than one seat in a linked manner are disclosed. A vehicle seat adjustment system for a vehicle includes a front seat of the vehicle, one or more passenger seats behind the front seat, an input device configured to receive an input for adjusting positions of the front seat, a first actuator configured to adjust positions of the front seat, a second actuator configured to adjust positions of the one or more passenger seats, and a controller communicatively coupled to the input device and the first and second actuators. The controller instructs the first actuator to move the front seat in a longitudinal direction for a first distance in response to the received input, and instructs the second actuator to move the one or more passenger seats in the longitudinal direction for a second distance in response to the received input.

14. A method of adjusting positions of a front seat and one or more passenger seats located behind the front seat in a vehicle, the method comprising:
-
receiving an input associated with the front seat from an input device of the vehicle; sending to a first actuator of the vehicle an instruction for moving the front seat in a first direction for a first distance in response to the received input; and sending to a second actuator of the vehicle an instruction for moving the one or more passenger seats in the first direction for a second distance in response to the received input wherein the first actuator moves the front seat in the first direction for a first distance before or after the second actuator moves the one or more passenger seats in the first direction for the second distance in response to the received input. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16)
