Zusammenfassung:The present disclosure relates to a method for operating a system (4) of a vehicle (2) for protection of a vulnerable road user, the system (4) comprising a remote sensor (8), a contact-based sensor (14) and a pedestrian protection means (16, 18), the method comprising the steps of: - scanning a region in front of the vehicle by means of the remote sensor in order to detect a target object (6), - if a target object is detected, classifying the target object into an object category based on information from the remote sensor, - selecting the selectable fire interval of the evaluation algorithm using the object category as input, - if an impact is detected by the contact-based sensor, the contact-based sensor sending information about the impact to the evaluation algorithm, - the evaluation algorithm evaluating if the signal is within the selectable fire interval, and in that case activating the pedestrian protection means. The disclosure further relates to the system and a vehicle comprising the system.
