Abstract
A presence detection system may include a pedal assembly that is located underneath a vehicle floor. The pedal assembly in one embodiment is recessed within the underside of a floor mat to eliminate trip hazards on the vehicle floor. Other embodiments may include a textured upper mat surface that provides traction, indicates the location of the recessed presence pedal and provide run-off for liquid spills.
