Original Abstract Submitted
providing a visual treatment based on proximity to an obstruction includes collecting, by a device, a sensor data for an environment, and determining a velocity of the device. a boundary of a volume around the device is determined based on the velocity. if a physical object is detected within the boundary based on the sensor data, then a notification procedure is initiated. the boundary of the volume dynamically changes as the velocity of the device or user changes.
