Claim 0:
1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
detecting, based on an analysis of image data generated by one or more sensors disposed on a vehicle, that the vehicle is approaching a pedestrian;
analyzing, using eye-tracking algorithms, the image data to determine eye direction of the pedestrian with respect to the vehicle;
determining, based on the eye direction of the pedestrian, that the pedestrian is unable to see the approaching vehicle;
identifying, based on image recognition analysis of the image data and the eye direction of the pedestrian, a plurality of objects within a view of the pedestrian;
generating, based on the identifying, a viewing score for each object of the plurality of objects, wherein the viewing score is representative of a closest proximity value for each object with respect to the view of the pedestrian;
selecting a first object of the plurality of objects that has the highest viewing score; and
displaying, by a visual indicator disposed on the vehicle, a visual indication that the vehicle is approaching the pedestrian on the first object.
