    Abstract: A method of visual odometry for a non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing one or more programs is disclosed. The one or more programs includes instructions, which when executed by a computing device, causes the computing device to perform the following steps comprising: performing data alignment among sensors including a LiDAR, cameras and an IMU-GPS module; collecting image data and generating point clouds; processing, in the IMU-GPS module, a pair of consecutive images in the image data to recognize pixels corresponding to a same point in the point clouds; and establishing an optical flow for visual odometry.

    Abstract: Techniques are described for estimating pose of a camera located on a vehicle. An exemplary method of estimating camera pose includes obtaining, from a camera located on a vehicle, an image including a lane marker on a road on which the vehicle is driven, and estimating a pose of the camera such that the pose of the camera provides a best match according to a criterion between a first position of the lane marker determined from the image and a second position of the lane marker determined from a stored map of the road.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for detecting trailer angle are provided. In one aspect, an in-vehicle control system includes an optical sensor configured to be mounted on a tractor so as to face a trailer coupled to the tractor, the optical sensor further configured to generate optical data indicative of an angle formed between the trailer and the tractor. The system further includes a processor and a computer-readable memory in communication with the processor and having stored thereon computer-executable instructions to cause the processor to receive the optical data from the optical sensor, determine at least one candidate plane representative of a surface of the trailer visible in the optical data based on the optical data, and determine an angle between the trailer and the tractor based on the at least one candidate plane.
