Embodiments of the present invention provide a controller. The controller comprises an input means (22) for receiving a trajectory parameter signal comprising one or more parameters indicative of the trajectory (32, 38) of a vehicle (30). The controller further comprises a processing means arranged to set, in dependence on the one or more parameters, a distance from the trajectory for a boundary of an alert zone (40, 44), where the alert zone boundary is, in use, determinative of the minimum distance from the trajectory (32, 38) below which a detected object will trigger an alert.
