Abstract: An end-to-end system for data generation, map creation using the generated data, and localization to the created map is disclosed. Mapstreams—or streams of sensor data, perception outputs from deep neural networks (DNNs), and/or relative trajectory data—corresponding to any number of drives by any number of vehicles may be generated and uploaded to the cloud. The mapstreams may be used to generate map data—and ultimately a fused high definition (HD) map—that represents data generated over a plurality of drives. When localizing to the fused HD map, individual localization results may be generated based on comparisons of real-time data from a sensor modality to map data corresponding to the same sensor modality. This process may be repeated for any number of sensor modalities and the results may be fused together to determine a final fused localization result.

Abstract: One or more embodiments of the present disclosure relate to generation of map data. In these or other embodiments, the generation of the map data may include determining whether objects indicated by the sensor data are static objects or dynamic objects. Additionally or alternatively, sensor data may be removed or included in the map data based on determinations as to whether it corresponds to static objects or dynamic objects.

Abstract: One or more embodiments of the present disclosure relate to generating RADAR (RAdio Detection And Ranging) point clouds based on RADAR data obtained from one or more RADAR sensors disposed on one or more ego-machines. In these or other embodiments, the RADAR point clouds may be communicated to a distributed map system that is configured to generate map data based on the RADAR point clouds. In some embodiments of the present disclosure, certain compression operations may be performed on the RADAR point clouds to reduce the amount of data that is communicated from the ego-machines to the map system.
