A vehicular based forward scanning device is disclosed for alerting a driver of a vehicle when an obstacle enters a predetermined detection zone 1 in front of the vehicle. The detection zone 1 is an area of variable size having a fixed width and a variable length calculated based on vehicle speed and steering angle. The detection zone 1 may be further modified according to direction of motion, weather conditions, gradient of the vehicle's path and weight of the vehicle's load. The arrangement may further provide line of sight communications enabling transfer of data, messages and warnings between vehicles equipped with the system. The scanning device may be a radar or lidar device. |
