Abstract
A method and system for a target vehicle that includes an extra-vehicle communication system, a passenger cabin including an interior audio system and a visual display, and a controller is described. The controller is in communication with the extra-vehicle communication system, and operably connected to the interior audio system and the visual display. The controller includes algorithmic code that is executable to receive a proximity alert from a second vehicle via the extra-vehicle communication system, determine a location vector between the second vehicle and the target vehicle based upon the proximity alert, and control the interior audio system and the visual display to generate an alarm in response to the proximity alert, wherein the alarm generated by the interior audio system and the visual display is directionally controlled based upon the location vector. The proximity alert may be generated by an operator, or by a spatial monitoring system.
