Abstract
An object collision warning system for a motor vehicle comprises a sensing means () adapted to sense a surrounding of the motor vehicle and a processing means () adapted to detect objects in a surrounding of the motor vehicle by processing a signal provided by the sensing means (), to perform an estimation of a collision probability between the vehicle and the detected object, and to output a corresponding signal in case the collision probability is non-negligible. The processing means () is adapted to determine, after having passed a curve, information describing the passed curve, to store the curve describing information, and to use the curve describing information of at least one previously passed curve for determining the vehicle path in a current curve in the estimation of the collision probability.
