Abstract
Methods and systems are provided for detecting an object. In one embodiment, a method includes: receiving, by a processor, image data from an image sensor; receiving, by a processor, radar data from a radar system; processing, by the processor, the image data from the image sensor and the radar data from the radar system using a deep learning method; and detecting, by the processor, an object based on the processing.
Claims13
A method for detecting an object, comprising:
- receiving, by a processor, image data from an image sensor;
- receiving, by the processor, radar data from a radar system;
- processing, by the processor, the image data from the image sensor to determine one or more stixels;
- processing, by the processor, the radar data from the radar system to determine one or more presence vectors;
- fusing, by the processor, the one or more stixels and the one or more presence vectors using a deep learning method;
- estimating, by the processor, a motion of the one or more stixels based on the fused stixels and presence vectors;
- and
- detecting, by the processor, an object based on the estimated motion of the one or more stixels.
