Abstract

Disclosed herein is an active cyclist and/or pedestrian safety system for identifying, warning, and reacting to dangerous situations that may be experienced by cyclists and/or pedestrians. The safety system may receive first information indicative of a head position of a cyclist and determine, based on the first information, a field of view of the cyclist. The safety system may receive second information indicative of an environment of the cyclist and determine, based on the field of view and the environment, an expected trajectory of the cyclist in a next road segment. The safety system may also determine, based on the field of view and the environment, a risk probability for the expected trajectory of the cyclist in the next road segment. The safety system may also generate an instruction to transmit a warning to the cyclist if the risk probability exceeds a threshold value.
