This Function shall be capable of providing the following facilities:<br/><br/>(1) The ability to take responsibility for processing information from sensors that detect the presence of Other Road Users near to the Host Vehicle, i.e. the Vehicle in which it is operating.<br/>(2) The ability to process the sensor data to determine the type of Other Road User (cyclist, motorcyclist, Vulnerable Road User (VRU), "non-equipped" Vehicle) that is nearby, their location relative to the Host Vehicle, and to determine its type and probably trajectory.<br/>(3) Once processing is complete, the ability to send the data in digital form to the Determine and store local Host Vehicle Conditions Function.<br/>
(a) continuously monitor the flow of input data;<br/>(b) convert the data in (a) into a digital form to show the location of other road users (e.g. bicycles, motorcycles and including those classed as Vulnerable Road User (VRU), "non-equipped" Vehicles) relative to the Host Vehicle, plus their type(s), direction of travel and whether or not they are capable of movement, e.g. they have fallen over and are not capable of immediate movement, or have restricted movement, e.g. VRU;<br/>(c) whenever a new road user is detected and/or at other intervals, send the results of (b) to the Determine and store local Host Vehicle conditions function in the other road users nearby data flow.<br/>
