Detection of objects along the sides of the vehicle
Objects along the sides of the vehicle are not instantaneously detected. The location
●
of objects in relation to the vehicle is estimated after they are first detected by the front
or rear side sensors, or side cameras. Therefore, after the power switch is changed
to ON, even if an object is along the side of the vehicle, it may not be detected until
the vehicle has been driven a small amount and the side sensors or side cameras
completely scan the areas along the sides of the vehicle.
If a vehicle, person, animal, etc., is detected by a side sensors or side cameras, but then
●
leaves the detection area of the side sensors or side cameras, the system will assume
the object has not moved.
