METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR INITIATING A FUNCTION OF A VEHICLE

The invention relates to a method, in particular a computer-implemented method, for initiating a function of a component of a vehicle comprising the steps. The method comprises: (i) receiving a wirelessly transmitted data signal representing an input of a user to an object and/or the presence of the object inside the vehicle or its vicinity; (ii) comparing the data signal with previously recorded data; (iii) initiating the function of the component if the comparison results that the data signal is at least essentially identical to at least a subset of the previously reference recorded data.
