Cyclist collision avoidance using imagery sensor

Collision avoidance within active safety has so far mainly focused on vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-pedestrians. Bicyclist accidents are getting more attention and with the introduction of the EU-NCAP protocol 2018 starting to be more addressed. Some of challenges with avoiding cyclist accidents are their mobility (like pedestrians they can change direction quickly compared to vehicles and take, for the driver, unexpected paths) and higher speed compared to pedestrians. Especially cyclists turning are difficult to predict by state-of-the-art systems. This project aims to improve the existing technology for detecting, tracking and predicting cyclists using an imagery sensor mounted on a vehicle and demonstrate this improved development.
