High integrity perception for machine localization and safeguarding

Abstract

The illustrative embodiments provide a method for processing sensor data and controlling the movement of a vehicle. An operating environment around the vehicle is identified and sensor data is selected from a set of sensors. A dynamic condition is identified using a plurality of different types of sensors on the vehicle. In response to the dynamic condition being identified, the movement of the vehicle is controlled. Sensor data for a plurality of vehicles is managed by receiving sensor data at the plurality of vehicles, each with a plurality of sensors. In response to a selected vehicle within the plurality of vehicles being unable to obtain needed sensor data, collected sensor data from a number of other vehicles in the plurality of vehicles can be obtained to form alternate sensor data used to control the vehicle.
