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 Pedestrians 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 location of the Pedestrians (including Vulnerable Road Users (VRU's)) relative to the Host Vehicle and their probable 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 pedestrians, including those classed as Vulnerable Road User (VRU), relative to the Host Vehicle and their probably trajectory;<br/>(c) whenever a new pedestrian is detected and/or at other intervals, send the results of (b) to the Determine and store local Host Vehicle conditions function in the vehicle detected nearby data flow.<br/>
