Abstract:
1. A method of determining a field of vision associated with an occupant of a vehicle, the method comprising: identifying a dominant eye of the occupant; determining a first position associated with the dominant eye of the occupant; determining a second position associated with the occupant; determining a set of three-dimensional coordinates for each of the first position and the second position; determining a first line-of-sight by extending a first line between the first position and the second position based on the three-dimensional coordinates for each of the first position and the second position; and identifying an object outside the vehicle as being in the field of vision based at least partially on the first line-of-sight by extrapolating the first line-of-sight beyond the second position and outside the vehicle to the object located outside the vehicle.
