Abstract

Methods and systems for collision avoidance between vulnerable road users (VRUs) and vehicles are provided. In one aspect, a method and a system for collision avoidance between vulnerable road users (VRUs) and vehicles based on emitted signal relates to VRUs and vehicles configured to emit and receive a proximity signal pertaining to road usage safety before accidents happen. The method and the system for pedestrian-to-vehicle (P2V) collision avoidance is based on emitted signal at the edge. The usefulness of the method and the system is for providing danger notifications pertaining to the field of road safety, and pertaining to collision avoidance, before accidents happen. The method and the system further relate to precautious collision avoidance notifications using past, current and predicted trajectories of VRUs and vehicles, based on emitted signal at the edge.
