A Multisensor Multiobject Tracking System for an Autonomous Vehicle Driving in an Urban Environment

چکیده
This paper presents the tracking system of Boss, Carnegie Mellon University’s winning entry in the DARPA Urban Challenge in 2007. We present the key challenges for implementing the tracking system, the design principles that guided its implementation, the software architecture of the tracking system and the sensor setup used by Boss. The system has been shown to work robustly in many different situations, including intersection handling, distance keeping or driving on open parking lots. The design principles and tracking architecture are formulated in a general way and may be used for the development of driver assistance systems which have to deal with the same situations.

An Adaptive Model Switching Approach for a Multisensor Tracking System used for Autonomous Driving in an Urban Environment
For most of the existing commercial driver assistance systems the use of a single environmental sensor and a tracking model tied to the characteristics of this sensor is sufficient. When using a multi-sensor fusion approach with heterogeneous sensors the information available for tracking depends on the sensors detecting the object. This paper describes an approach where multiple models are use...

متن کاملLane detection & localization for UGV in urban environment
Generally, the main components of autonomous driving system consists of perception (geometry recognition, localization, and objects detection & tracking) and navigation processes (global & local path planning, and controller). In this paper, we focus on finding an accurate position for Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV) in urban environments. A GPS sensor is fundamentally used to get a current globa...
