Abstract
A forward facing sensing system for a vehicle includes a radar sensor device disposed at the vehicle and having a sensing direction forward of the vehicle and an image sensor disposed behind the vehicle windshield so as to view forward of the vehicle through the windshield. A control includes an image processor operable to analyze image data captured by the image sensor in order to, at least in part, detect an object present forward of the vehicle. The control, responsive at least in part to processing of captured image data by the image processor and to sensing by the radar sensor, determines that a potentially hazardous condition may exist in the path of forward travel of the vehicle. The radar sensor device and the image sensor collaborate in a way that enhances determination of existence of the potentially hazardous condition in the path of forward travel of the vehicle.
