Abstract
A point is detected from first and second sensor data. An uncertainty range is estimated for a location of the point relative to the vehicle based on a motion model. Upon determining the point exited a first sensor field of view, the uncertainty range is estimated based on data received from the second sensor and dead reckoning, and the location of the point is estimated within the uncertainty range.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- detecting a point from first and second sensor data;
- estimating an uncertainty range for a location of the point relative to a vehicle based on a motion model;
- upon determining the point exited a first sensor field of view, estimating the uncertainty range based on data received from the second sensor and dead reckoning;
- and
- estimating the location of the point within the uncertainty range.

A system, comprising a processor and a memory, the memory storing instructions executable by the processor to:
- detect a point from first and second sensor data;
- estimate an uncertainty range for a location of the point relative to the vehicle based on a motion model;
- upon determining the point exited a first sensor field of view, estimate the uncertainty range based on data received from the second sensor and dead reckoning;
- and
- estimate the location of the point within the uncertainty range.
