Abstract
A sensor information fusion device and a method thereof are provided. The sensor information fusion device includes a processor that generates a first track box and a second track box based on an object detected by a plurality of sensors and determines whether the first track box and the second track box are overlapped with each other and a storage storing data obtained by the processor and an algorithm run by the processor. The processor generates a merge gate expanded from the first track box and determines the first track box and the second track box are overlapped with each other when the second track box is included in the merge gate.
Claims20
A sensor information fusion device, comprising:
- a processor configured to:
- when an object is detected by overlapping a plurality of track boxes through a plurality of sensors,
- generate a first track box in which the object is detected by a first sensor among the plurality of sensors, and generate a second track box in which the object is detected by a second sensor among the plurality of sensors;
- and
- determine whether the first track box and the second track box are overlapped with each other;
- and
- a storage configured to store data obtained by the processor and to store a set of instructions that when executed by the processor, implement an algorithm,
- wherein the processor is further configured to execute the set of instructions stored in the storage and to:
- generate a merge gate expanded from the first track box;
- and
- determine that the first track box and the second track box are overlapped with each other when the second track box is included in the merge gate.
A sensor information fusion method, comprising:
- when an object is detected by overlapping a plurality of track boxes through a plurality of sensors,
- generating a first track box in which the object is detected by a first sensor among the plurality of sensors, and a second track box in which the object is detected by a second sensor among the plurality of sensors;
- generating a merge gate expanded from the first track box;
- and
- determining that the first track box and the second track box are overlapped with each other when the second track box is included in the merge gate.
