Abstract
A system including at least one memory and at least one processor coupled to the at least one memory is disclosed. The at least one processor is configured to: receive, from a camera mounted on the autonomous vehicle, camera data; receive, from a sensor mounted on the autonomous vehicle, sensor data; identify, based on the camera data, a surface in the environment of the autonomous vehicle; and process a subset of the sensor data associated with the surface to determine an audio signal based on vibration of the surface.
Claims20
A system comprising:
- at least one memory configured to store instructions;
- and
- at least one processor coupled to the at least one memory and configured to execute the instructions to perform operations comprising:
- receiving, from a camera mounted on an autonomous vehicle, camera data;
- receiving, from a sensor mounted on the autonomous vehicle, sensor data;
- identifying, based on the camera data, a surface in the environment of the autonomous vehicle;
- and
- processing a subset of the sensor data associated with the surface to determine an audio signal based on vibration of the surface.
A computer-implemented method comprising:
- receiving, from a camera mounted on an autonomous vehicle, camera data;
- receiving, from a sensor mounted on the autonomous vehicle, sensor data;
- identifying, based on the camera data, a surface in the environment of the autonomous vehicle;
- and
- processing a subset of the sensor data associated with the surface to determine an audio signal based on vibration of the surface.
An autonomous vehicle comprising:
- a camera configured to generate camera data;
- a sensor configured to generate sensor data;
- at least one memory configured to store computer executable instructions;
- and
- at least one processor coupled to the camera, the sensor, and the at least one memory, and configured to execute the computer executable instructions to:
- receive, from the camera mounted on the autonomous vehicle, camera data;
- receive, from the sensor mounted on the autonomous vehicle, sensor data;
- identify, based on the camera data, a surface in the environment of the autonomous vehicle;
- and
- process a subset of the sensor data associated with the surface to determine an audio signal based on vibration of the surface.
