Abstract
Cross traffic alert system for a host vehicle engaged in a forward or reverse gear position, includes an object detection sensor configured to detect relative positions of a plurality of target objects present in a coverage zone proximate the vehicle, and a processor for receiving the target positional data, detecting established environmental states based on the received data, and classifying a driving environment (e.g., road, parking lot, etc.) based on the detection or not of established environmental states. Threshold alert areas are dynamically adjustable in the coverage zones based on the classified driving environment, where indications of targets in the alert areas may be generated.
