Abstract
This paper presents how expanding circle sectors are used for finding free-space in front of a vehicle equipped with a laser range finder. The circle sectors give support for detection of oncoming cars since they will cause changes in the circle sector parameters. The velocities and headings of detected oncoming cars are estimated from clustered range data that are time stamped.
