US Patent 10328949 Sensor blind spot indication for vehicles

A vehicle can be configured to indicate sensor blind spots to a vehicle occupant (e.g., a driver). Using one or more sensors, the vehicle can acquire driving environment data of an external environment of the vehicle. It can be determined whether one or more portions of the acquired driving environment data is unreliable. Responsive to determining that one or more portions of the acquired driving environment data is unreliable, an alert can be caused to be presented within the vehicle. The alert can indicate one or more locations in the external environment in which the driving environment data that is determined to be unreliable. In some instances, the alert can be a visual alert and/or an audial alert.
