The system detects a pedestrian when the contour of the head and shoulders are clear and the left/right balance is symmetrical. Approx 3 1/3 ft 6 2/3 ft (1-2 m) S00693 WARNING The EyeSight system’s Pre-Collision Braking function also treats 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 surrounding 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 jumps out into the field of view 45
