Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods for hardware-based time synchronization for heterogenous sensors are described. An example method includes generating a plurality of input trigger pulses having a nominal pulse-per-second (PPS) rate, generating, based on timing information derived from the plurality of input trigger pulses, a plurality of output trigger pulses, and transmitting the plurality of output trigger pulses to a sensor of a plurality of sensors, wherein a frequency of the plurality of output trigger pulses corresponds to a target operating frequency of the sensor, wherein, in a case that a navigation system coupled to the synchronization unit is functioning correctly, the plurality of input trigger pulses is generated based on a nominal PPS signal from the navigation unit, and wherein, in a case that the navigation system is not functioning correctly, the plurality of input trigger pulses is generated based on a simulated clock source of the synchronization unit.

Abstract: Disclosed are devices and systems for an optimized sensor layout for an autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicle. In one aspect, the system includes a vehicle capable of semi-autonomous or autonomous operation. A plurality of forward-facing cameras is coupled to the vehicle and configured to have a field of view in front of the vehicle. At least three forward-facing cameras of the plurality of forward-facing cameras have different focal lengths. A right-side camera is coupled to the right side of the vehicle, the right-side camera configured to have a field of view to the right of the vehicle. A left-side camera is coupled to the left side of the vehicle, the left-side camera is configured to have a field of view to the left of the vehicle.

Abstract: A method for controlling an autonomous vehicle includes collecting data about a surrounding of the autonomous vehicle, the data including global information of where the autonomous vehicle is positioned; deriving, at least in part based on the collected data, a perceived environment based on localizing the global information; determining a driving condition of the autonomous vehicle based on the perceived environment; modifying, according to the determined driving condition, a first configuration parameter of a sensor to adjust an amount of output data from the sensor; and simultaneously adjusting, according to the determined driving condition, a second configuration parameter for processing the output data to allow consistent data capturing and processing of the output data. A control system can employ such a method, and an autonomous vehicle can utilize such a control system.
