Abstract: Techniques for determining an object contour are discussed. Depth data associated with an object may be received. The depth data, such as lidar data, can be projected onto a two-dimensional plane. A first convex hull may be determined based on the projected lidar data. The first convex hull may include a plurality of boundary edges. A longest boundary edge, having a first endpoint and a second endpoint, can be determined. An angle can be determined based on the first endpoint, the second endpoint, and an interior point in the interior of the first convex hull. The longest boundary edge may be replaced with a first segment based on the first endpoint and the interior point, and a second segment based on the interior point and the second endpoint. An updated convex hull can be determined based on the first segment and the second segment.

Abstract: A vehicle can include various sensors to detect objects in an environment. In some cases, the object may be within a planned path of travel of the vehicle. In these cases, leaving the planned path may be dangerous to the passengers so the vehicle may, based on dimensions of the object, dimensions of the vehicle, and semantic information of the object, determine operational parameters associate with passing the object while maintaining a position within the planned path, if possible.

Abstract: Techniques for collision avoidance using an object contour are discussed. A trajectory associated with a vehicle may be received. Sensor data can be received from a sensor associated with the vehicle. A bounding contour may be determined and associated with an object represented in the sensor data. Based on the trajectory, a simulated position of the vehicle can be determined. Additionally, a predicted position of the bounding contour can be determined. Based on the simulated position of the vehicle and the predicted position of the bounding contour, a distance between the vehicle and the object may be determined. An action can be performed based on the distance between the vehicle and the object.
