Abstract
A method for operating a mobile platform includes detecting a malfunction in a first sensor communicating with a sensor controller associated with the mobile platform, and, in response to detecting the malfunction in the first sensor, eliminating the first sensor from a sensor data source for controlling the mobile platform, enabling a second sensor to be in the sensor data source, continuing to receive and evaluate data from the first sensor, and, in response to not detecting an anomaly in the data from the first sensor, restoring the first sensor back into the sensor data source.

A method for operating a mobile platform comprising:
- detecting a malfunction in a first sensor communicating with a sensor controller associated with the mobile platform;
- and
- in response to detecting the malfunction in the first sensor:
- eliminating the first sensor from a sensor data source for controlling the mobile platform;
- enabling a second sensor to be in the sensor data source;
- continuing to receive and evaluate data from the first sensor;
- and
- in response to not detecting an anomaly in the data from the first sensor, restoring the first sensor back into the sensor data source.
An apparatus for operating a mobile platform comprising:
- a sensor controller associated with the mobile platform and including one or more processors configured to:
- detect a malfunction in a first sensor communicating with a sensor controller associated with the mobile platform;
- and
