Abstract: An advanced pedestrian warning or alert system is a system for automotive vehicles is described herein in various embodiments. This system detects if a vulnerable road user, for example a pedestrian, is at an unsafe distance from the moving vehicle. If a pedestrian is too close to the vehicle when the vehicle is in motion, then the system will issue auditory and/or visual warnings to notify the pedestrian back to safety.
