Intelligent beam forming for a range detection device of a vehicle

Abstract:

Intelligent beam forming for a range detection device of a vehicle. One system includes a range detection device including a detection array, and an electronic processor communicatively coupled to the detection array. The electronic processor is configured to receive image or video data from a camera having a field of view. The electronic processor is further configured to identify an area in the field of view of the camera, determine a first threat probability of the identified area, and determine that the first threat probability is greater than a threat level threshold. In response to determining that the first threat probability is greater than the threat level threshold, the electronic processor is configured to provide an instruction to the detection array to change a shape of a beam created by the detection array to focus the beam in a direction of the identified area.
