Object detection system and method of estimating object size

A collision detection system (18) and method (100) of estimating a miss distance (M) of an object (16) and estimating length (L) and width (W) of the object (16) are provided. The collision detection system (18) includes a sensor (12) for sensing an object (16) within a field of view (14) and measur...

Zusammenfassung:	A collision detection system (18) and method (100) of estimating a miss distance (M) of an object (16) and estimating length (L) and width (W) of the object (16) are provided. The collision detection system (18) includes a sensor (12) for sensing an object (16) within a field of view (14) and measuring range (R) and range rate (R) of the sensed object. The collision detection system (18) further includes a controller (20) for estimating a miss distance (M) of the object (16) and further estimating length (L) and width (W) of the object (16) as a function of the range (R) and the range rate (R).
