  • Patent number: 11830368
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for assisting vehicle operation for collision avoidance. One method involves determining a horizontal adjustment for the vehicle based at least in part on an output from a collision avoidance system and displaying, on a display device, a graphical indication of the horizontal adjustment at a position on the display device with respect to a reference position of a second graphical indication of a current orientation of the vehicle resulting in a distance between the position of the graphical indication and the reference position of the second graphical indication corresponding to the horizontal adjustment. The distance dynamically updates in response to changes to the orientation of the vehicle.
