Abstract
An object detection system includes an ultrasonic sensor and an image sensor. The ultrasonic sensor transmits an ultrasonic signal into an environment of interest and makes an initial determination regarding a potential object in the environment of interest based on received reflections of the ultrasonic signal. Based on that initial determination, the image sensor and associated processing circuitry wake up and capture one or more images of the object within the environment of interest. Those images are analyzed such as by a classifier to determine the object status, which is then compared to the object status as determined by the ultrasonic sensor. Detection parameters of the ultrasonic sensor are updated if the object status as determined ultrasonic sensor does not match the determination of the imaging system.
