Claim Text:
1. A method comprising: receiving sensor data describing an entity with a processor-based computing device programmed to perform the receiving; assigning the entity to a category associated with the entity; estimating a danger index for the entity based on vehicle data describing a vehicle, category data describing the category, and a position of the entity; generating entity data that includes the danger index; identifying a graphic that is a representation of the entity based on the entity data; determining a display modality for the graphic based on the danger index; and positioning the graphic to correspond to a user's eye frame, wherein positioning the graphic to correspond to the user's eye frame further includes: computing a first transformation from a sensor frame to an eye frame; multiplying the first transformation by a second transformation from graphics to the sensor frame to obtain a third transformation from the graphics to the eye frame; and projecting the graphics into a viewport placed at a transformation from graphics to an eye frame pose.
