1. A system for backing a trailer with a vehicle, comprising: a mobile electronic device remotely located from the vehicle and with which a user inputs an intended backing path for the trailer; anda controller for autonomously controlling the vehicle to back the trailer according to the intended backing path, wherein the controller communicates with a sensing system to determine if the user has lost sight of at least one of the vehicle and the trailer. 2. The system of claim 1, wherein the mobile electronic device is one of a smartphone, a tablet, and a dedicated remote. 3. The system of claim 1, wherein the controller is configured to generate a countermeasure if it determines that the user has lost sight of at least one of the vehicle and the trailer. 4. The system of claim 3, wherein the controller determines that the user has lost sight if the sensing system detects an object exceeding a predetermined height and located between the user and at least one of the vehicle and the trailer. 5. The system of claim 3, wherein the sensing system comprises an imaging device, and wherein the controller determines that the user has lost sight if the imaging device is unable to detect the user. 6. The system of claim 3, wherein the countermeasure comprises slowing or stopping the vehicle and trailer. 7. The system of claim 3, wherein the countermeasure comprises generating at least one of an audio warning, a visual warning, and a haptic warning. 8. A system for hitching a vehicle to a trailer, comprising: a mobile electronic device remotely located from the vehicle and with which a user inputs an intended backing path of the vehicle towards the trailer; anda controller for autonomously controlling the vehicle according to the intended backing path, wherein the controller communicates with a sensing system to determine if the user or other object crosses into the intended backing path, and if so, generates a countermeasure. 9. The system of claim 8, wherein the mobile electronic device is one of a smartphone, a tablet, and a dedicated remote. 10. The system of claim 8, wherein the sensing system comprises at least one of ultrasonic sensors, radar sensors, LIDAR sensors, infrared sensors, and vision-based sensors. 11. The system of claim 8, wherein the controller generates the countermeasure if the sensing system detects at least one of the mobile electronic device and the user located between the vehicle and the trailer are within a predetermined distance from a rear of the vehicle. 12. The system of claim 8, wherein the countermeasure comprises slowing or stopping the vehicle. 13. The system of claim 8, wherein the countermeasure comprises generating at least one of an audio warning, a visual warning, and a haptic warning. 14. A method of backing a trailer with a vehicle, comprising: using a mobile electronic device remotely located from the vehicle to input an intended backing path for the trailer; andproviding a controller for autonomously controlling the vehicle to back the trailer according to the intended backing path, wherein the controller communicates with a sensing system to determine if the user has lost sight of at least one of the vehicle and the trailer. 15. The method of claim 14, wherein the mobile electronic device is one of a smartphone, a tablet, and a dedicated remote. 16. The method of claim 14, wherein the controller is configured to generate a countermeasure if it determines that the user has lost sight of at least one of the vehicle and the trailer. 17. The method of claim 16, wherein the controller determines that the user has lost sight if the sensing system detects an object exceeding a predetermined height and located between the user and at least one of the vehicle and the trailer. 18. The method of claim 16, wherein the controller determines that the user has lost sight if the sensing system is unable to detect the user. 19. The method of claim 16, wherein the countermeasure comprises slowing or stopping the vehicle and trailer. 20. The method of claim 16, wherein the countermeasure comprises generating at least one of an audio warning, a visual warning, and a haptic warning.
