ABSTRACT:
A method for determining the probability of a vehicle colliding with a detected object. The object is detected. A stochastic process is determined representing a relative distance between the vehicle and the detected object. The stochastic process has a direction and a velocity relative the vehicle. A safety zone of the vehicle is defined in relation to the detected object as a straight line perpendicular to a line of sight of the detected object. The probability of colliding with the detected object over a period of time is determined as the probability of the stochastic process crossing the straight line with the direction and velocity of the stochastic process.
