Abstract: A scan aggregator and filter for an autonomous vehicle includes a plurality of radar sensors, where each radar sensor performs a plurality of individual scans of a surrounding environment to obtain data in the form of a radar point cloud including a plurality of detection points. The scan aggregator and filter also includes an automated driving controller in electronic communication with the plurality of radar sensors. The automated driving controller is instructed to filter each of the individual scans to define a spatial region of interest and to remove the detection points of the radar point cloud that represent moving objects based on a first outlier-robust model estimation algorithm. The automated driving controller aggregates a predefined number of individual scans together based on a motion compensated aggregation technique to create an aggregated data scan and applies a plurality of density-based clustering algorithms to filter the aggregated data scan.

Abstract: Systems and methods for generating alignment parameters for processing data associated with a vehicle. In one embodiment, a method includes: receiving image data associated with an environment of the vehicle; receiving lidar data associated with the environment of the vehicle; processing, by a processor, the image data to determine data points associated with at least one vehicle identified within image data; processing, by the processor, the lidar data to determine data points associated with at least one vehicle identified within the lidar data; selectively storing the data points in a data buffer based on at least one condition associated with a quality of the data points; processing, by the processor, the data points in the data buffer with a joint analysis method to generate alignment parameters between the lidar and the camera; and processing future data based on the alignment parameters.

Abstract: A system for on-vehicle camera alignment monitoring includes an on-vehicle camera in communication with a controller. The controller monitors vehicle operating parameters and camera signal parameters, and captures an image file from the on-vehicle camera. A first level analysis of the image file, the vehicle operating parameters, and the camera signal parameters is executed to detect dynamic conditions and image feature parameters that affect camera alignment. An error with one of the dynamic conditions or the image feature parameters that affects the camera alignment is detected. A second level analysis of the camera signal parameters is executed to identify a root cause indicating one of the dynamic conditions or the image feature parameters that affects the camera alignment based upon the error. A camera alignment-related fault is detected based upon the root cause, and vehicle operation is controlled based upon the camera alignment-related fault.

Abstract: A system in a vehicle includes a lidar system to transmit incident light and receive reflections from one or more objects as a point cloud of points. The system also includes processing circuitry to identify feature points among the points of the point cloud using principal component analysis. The feature points are planar points that form one or more surfaces or edge points. A set of edge points forms a linear surface.

Abstract: A LIDAR-to-vehicle alignment system includes a memory and an autonomous driving module. The memory stores points of data provided based on an output of a LIDAR sensor and GPS locations. The autonomous driving module performs an alignment process including performing feature extraction on the points of data to detect one or more features of one or more predetermined types of objects having one or more predetermined characteristics. The features are determined to correspond to one or more targets because the features have the predetermined characteristics. One or more of the GPS locations are of the targets. The alignment process further includes: determining ground-truth positions of the features; correcting the GPS locations based on the ground-truth positions; calculating a LIDAR-to-vehicle transform based on the corrected GPS locations; and based on results of the alignment process, determining whether one or more alignment conditions are satisfied.
