Summary
BYD has filed a patent for an advanced detection system that can identify objects or living beings hidden underneath a vehicle before it starts moving. The technology aims to enhance safety by detecting anything concealed beneath the car, which could be particularly useful in colder climates where animals may seek shelter under vehicles. While not as groundbreaking as some other automotive patents, it represents a practical safety innovation.
