Abstract: A target selection system (21) for a vehicle (12) includes an object detection sensor (17) that generates object detection signals associated with multiple detected objects. A feature target selection module (30) selects secondary targets from the objects and associates the secondary targets with respective features (23). A primary target selection module (31) selects primary targets from the secondary targets and associates each of the primary targets with a single respective concentrated feature.

Abstract: A path prediction system (10) for a vehicle (12) includes vehicle state sensors (18) that generate vehicle state signals. A tracking sensor (20) generates a path characteristic signal. A path prediction module (16) determines predicted path estimations in response to data received from each of the vehicle state sensors (18) and the tracking sensor (20). The path prediction module (16) determines a resultant predicted future path and a path confidence level in response to the predicted path estimations. A controller (14) performs a countermeasure (26) in response to the resultant predicted future path and the path confidence level.
