System and method for inhibiting automatic movement of a barrier
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for inhibiting automatic movement of a barrier, comprising:
- determining a current state of the barrier when a vehicle travels through at least one first zone associated with the barrier;
analyzing sensor data to determine if at least one individual or object is located within a movement path of the barrier, wherein at least one barrier control signal is sent to automatically control movement to open or close the barrier based on the current state of the barrier;
inhibiting a sending of the at least one barrier control signal from the vehicle to a barrier controller associated with the barrier that is automatically sent to move the barrier once the vehicle travels through at least one second zone upon determining that the at least one individual or object is located within the movement path of the barrier; and
presenting a user interface alert relating to inhibiting the automatic movement of the barrier upon inhibiting the sending of the at least one barrier control signal from the vehicle.

Abstract
A system and method for inhibiting automatic movement of a barrier that includes determining a current state of the barrier when a vehicle travels through at least one first zone associated with the barrier. The system and method also include analyzing sensor data to determine if at least one: individual or object is located within a movement path of the barrier. The system and method further include inhibiting a sending of the at least one barrier control signal that is automatically sent to move the barrier once the vehicle travels through at least one second zone upon determining that the at least one: individual or object is located within the movement path of the barrier. Additionally, the system and method include presenting a user interface alert relating to inhibiting the automatic movement of the barrier.
