Abstract
A system for warning of potential hazards when driving a vehicle has a sensor coupled to the vehicle capturing data of objects located around the vehicle. A control unit is coupled to the sensor processing the data captured by the sensor and generating graphical representations of the objects captured by the sensor and warning indicators alerting a diver of the vehicle to the objects. The control unit calculates projected paths of the objects and a projected travel path of the vehicle. The warning indicators generated when a specified projected path of a specified object and the projected travel path intersect. A heads-up display (HUD) displays the graphical representations of the objects and the warning indicators. The warning indicators are positioned on the HUD in directions toward each associated object.
