Abstract
A method to reduce a vehicle-hazard potential, the method including the steps of: detecting, via a sensor, one or more objects in a vehicle environment; determining whether these objects are of a specific type; and based on the specific type of the one or more objects, deterring the one or more objects from colliding with a vehicle.
Claims20
A method to reduce a vehicle-hazard potential, the method comprising:
- detecting, via a sensor, one or more objects in a vehicle environment;
- determining whether the one or more objects are of a specific type;
- and
- based on the specific type of the one or more objects, deterring the one or more objects from colliding with a vehicle.
A system to reduce a vehicle-hazard potential, the system comprises:
- a memory configured to comprise a plurality of executable instructions and a processor configured to execute the executable instructions, wherein the executable instructions enable the processor to carry out the following steps:
- detecting, via a sensor, one or more objects in a vehicle environment;
- determining whether the one or more objects are of a specific type;
- and
- based on the specific type of the one or more objects, deterring the one or more objects from colliding with a vehicle.
A non-transitory and machine-readable medium having stored thereon executable instructions adapted to reduce a vehicle-hazard potential, which when provided to a processor and executed thereby, causes the processor to carry out the following steps:
- detecting, via a sensor, one or more objects in a vehicle environment;
- determining whether the one or more objects are of a specific type;
- and
- based on the specific type of the one or more objects, deterring the one or more objects from colliding with a vehicle.
