An autonomous vehicle configured to detect occluded objects. The autonomous vehicle includes a processor in communication with a memory device, and sensors. The processor is programmed to: (i) receive optical data of optical phenomena adjacent the autonomous vehicle based upon analysis of sensor data from the sensors; (ii) analyze the optical data of the optical phenomena to determine that the optical phenomena corresponds to the presence of an object adjacent the autonomous vehicle, the object being occluded from a line of sight of the autonomous vehicle, the line of sight being defined at least in part by a trailer of the autonomous vehicle; (iii) change one or more driving behaviors of the autonomous vehicle based upon the determination of the presence of the occluded object; and (iv) control operation of the autonomous vehicle based upon the one or more changed driving behaviors.
An autonomous vehicle configured to detect occluded objects, the autonomous vehicle comprising:
An autonomy computing system of an autonomous vehicle for detecting occluded objects, the autonomy computing system comprising at least one processor in communication with at least one memory device, the at least one processor programmed to:
