1. A method, comprising:

  • quantifying a magnitude of an obstruction between a target object and a spotter vehicle;

    determining whether the quantified magnitude of the obstruction is below a threshold value, wherein the quantified magnitude of the obstruction is permissible to detect the target object when the quantified magnitude of the obstruction is below the threshold value;

    in response to a determination that the quantified magnitude of the obstruction is below the threshold value, detecting the target object within a particular distance of the spotter vehicle, wherein the target object moves at least at a threshold rate of speed greater than zero within the particular distance of the spotter vehicle, and wherein the spotter vehicle provides a verified detection of the target object;

    confirming the detection of the target object by notifying the detected target object; and

    transmitting a payoff of the confirmed detection of the target object, wherein the transmission of the payoff is to at least one of the spotter vehicle and the detected target object.
