ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a distributed motion prediction network including a plurality of nodes. The nodes in the network comprise a mechanism for detecting the presence of an object in an area around a node. A node that detects an object is termed a “detecting node.” After a node has detected an object, it communicates a signal to local nodes that are local with the detecting node to inform the local nodes of the presence of the object in the area around the detecting node. After the local nodes receive the signal, they further propagate the signal to other nodes (local to the local nodes) so that information regarding the presence of the object is progressively propagated to nodes away from the detecting node and so that as the object moves, the propagated signal is used to predict a direction of travel of the object.
