Abstract
A method for collision threat filtering is disclosed. The method may include determining trajectory information associated with a plurality of machines. The method may include identifying, based on the trajectory information, one or more potential collisions among the plurality of machines, the one or more potential collisions including a potential collision between a first machine, of the plurality of machines, and a second machine of the plurality of machines. The method may include determining whether to filter the potential collision between the first machine and the second machine. Whether the potential collision is filtered may be determined based on a set of filtering parameters and machine information associated with at least one of the first machine or the second machine. The method may include selectively performing a collision prevention action, associated with the potential collision, based on whether the potential collision is to be filtered.
