Abstract
A directional vehicular spotlight (100) is provided with a plurality of radar sensors (150) and at least one non-radar sensor (160). The plurality of radar sensors (150) provide field of view coverage in at least forward, first and second sides, and rear directions of the directional spotlight. The non-radar sensor (160) detects orientation of the directional spotlight (100). The plurality of radar sensors (150) and the at least one non-radar sensor (160) provide ingress detection across a predetermined vehicular perimeter threshold.
