SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ALIGNING TRAJECTORY INFORMATION DERIVED FROM DIFFERENT SOURCE DATA

Abstract:

Examples disclosed herein may involve a computing system that is operable to (i) derive a first representation of an agent's trajectory from a first set of sensor data captured by a first sensor system associated with a vehicle, (ii) derive a second representation of the agent's trajectory from a second set of sensor data captured by a second sensor system associated with the vehicle, (iii) align the spatial reference frames of the first and second representations by applying a spatial transformation to a given one of the first and second representations, and (iv) align the temporal reference frames of the first and second representations by determining an origin-time offset between the temporal reference frames of the first and second representations and applying the determined origin-time offset to timing information encoded in the given one of the first and second representations.
