Patent attributes
The pedestrian tracking system implemented in a host vehicle is disclosed. The system estimates trajectories of the host vehicle and the pedestrian based on factors of position and velocity of the host vehicle and parameters of position and velocity of the pedestrian. The trajectories of the host vehicle and the pedestrian are estimated to estimate a point of intersection of the host vehicle and the pedestrian. Further, the system estimates time to collision based on the estimated point of intersection and determines trajectory of the pedestrian in path of the host vehicle. Furthermore, the system assesses collision risk to select the pedestrian as a target and generates a deceleration actuation command to decelerate the host vehicle based on the selected target, which is provided to an automatic emergency braking (AEB) actuation unit.
