Adaptive driver assistance alerts functionality

摘要

A driver assistance system for a vehicle includes a plurality of lights linearly arranged substantially around an interior perimeter of the vehicle. A controller is controllably coupled to the plurality of lights, such that the controller is operable to control the plurality of lights. A hazard detection system is communicatively coupled to the controller. The controller includes a non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions for causing the controller to illuminate at least one of the plurality of lights corresponding to a location of a hazard detected by the hazard detection system.

1. A driver assistance system for a vehicle comprising:
a plurality of lights linearly arranged around a majority of an interior perimeter of the vehicle; a controller controllably coupled to the plurality of lights, such that the controller is operable to control the plurality of lights; a hazard detection system communicatively coupled to the controller; the controller including a non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions for causing the controller to illuminate at least one of the plurality of lights corresponding to a location of a hazard detected by the hazard detection system; and the non-transitory computer readable medium further including instructions for causing the controller to determine a worst case scenario position of a driver's gaze based on the location of the identified hazard in response to the direction of the driver's gaze being unknown, and for causing the controller to initiate a warning in a position farthest from the hazard.
