Abstract
Methods and apparatus are disclosed to facilitate pedestrian detection during remote-controlled maneuvers. An example vehicle comprises external indicators and a processor and memory. The processor and memory are in communication with the external indicators and a remote device. The processor is configured to: determine whether the remote device is in a travel zone related to the vehicle; determine a risk assessment if the remote device is in the travel zone; and communicate a warning based on the risk assessment via the external indicators.
