Abstract
A gate opening system for a vehicle comprises a gate for the vehicle moveable between an open position and a closed position relative to a vehicle body and a gate actuator secured to the vehicle and the gate to actuate movement of the gate between the open position and the closed position. A camera is mounted to the vehicle and facing in an external direction provide a view of an area proximate to the vehicle. An ECU is connected to the camera to detect a predetermined action by a vehicle operator based upon image analysis of the camera image. A remote keyless entry system is also connected to the ECU and the gate actuator, wherein the remote keyless entry system activates the gate actuator to move the gate from the closed position to the open position when the ECU determines that the predetermined action has occurred.
