SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING SITUATIONAL AWARENESS IN A VEHICLE

摘要

A method and system for providing situational awareness in a vehicle. The method and system include receiving environmental sensor data and vehicle performance sensor data. The method and system also include compiling the environmental sensor data and the vehicle performance data. The method and system additionally include determining one or more situational risks that are posed to the vehicle that occur within a surrounding environment of the vehicle based on the compiled environmental sensor data and the vehicle performance data. The method and system further include generating one or more projected graphical objects that represent the one or more situational risks that are determined to be posed to the vehicle.

1. A computer-implemented method for providing situational awareness in a vehicle comprising:
receiving environmental sensor data and vehicle performance data; compiling the environmental sensor data and the vehicle performance data; determining one or more situational risks that are posed to the vehicle that occur within a surrounding environment of the vehicle based on the compiled environmental sensor data and the vehicle performance data; and generating one or more projected graphical objects that represent the one or more situational risks that are determined to be posed to the vehicle, wherein generating the one or more projected graphical objects that represent the one or more situational risks includes analyzing situational awareness assessment data and generating a virtual rear fan object (rear fan) that includes a virtual floor zone of interest (floor zone) and a virtual Doppler zone of interest (Doppler zone), wherein the floor zone and the Doppler zone includes the one or more projected graphical objects that represent at least one of: one or more objects determined within the surrounding environment of the vehicle, determined characteristics of the surrounding environment of the vehicle, and determined situational risks that are posed to the vehicle.
