Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer programs are presented to detect potential collisions of vehicles with a Vulnerable Road User (VRU). The provided solution includes a system designed to detect and warn against potential collisions with vulnerable road users (VRUs) using a combination of hardware and software components. The system employs one or more cameras installed on a vehicle to monitor the surrounding environment. These cameras capture image frames, which are processed by an onboard model to estimate potential collisions through trajectory analysis. In one aspect, the trajectory estimation includes using a bird's eye view transformation, which provides a top-down perspective of the scene to aid in trajectory estimation. Camera parameters are personalized per installation by determining a transformation matrix used to derive the bird's eye view.
