Zusammenfassung: | A passenger detecting apparatus determines the presence of a passenger or an object, such as a child seat, in a seat unit, estimates the weight of the passenger or determines the build of the passenger or determines the seating posture of the passenger, thereby improving the usability of peripheral devices of a seat. The seating posture of a passenger can be accurately estimated without arranging extra weight sensors around the seat. In particular, the use of a load measuring means as a barycenter detection means that is used for determining the seating posture eliminates the need for specially providing a sensor as the barycenter detection means. |
