The EyeSight
pedestrians. The EyeSight system detects
pedestrians from their size, shape and
movement. The system detects a pedestrian
when the contour of the head and shoulders
are clear.
The EyeSight system's Pre-Collision Braking function also identifies
pedestrians as obstacles. However, depending on the conditions, there may
be cases when the system cannot detect a pedestrian. In the following
conditions, the possibility that the system may not be able to detect a
pedestrian as an object is particularly high.
• When pedestrians are walking in a group
• When a pedestrian is next to a wall or other obstacle
• When a pedestrian is using an umbrella
• When a pedestrian is wearing clothes that are a similar color to the sur-
rounding environment
• When a pedestrian is carrying bulky luggage
• When a pedestrian is bent over, crouching down or lying down
• When a pedestrian is in a dark location
• When a pedestrian suddenly crosses in front of you from the side or sud-
denly runs in front of you
