Automated Driving Algorithms

Implement perception, planning, and control algorithms for automated driving

Perception algorithms enable the vehicle to understand the static and dynamic elements in the environment. Perception software enables vehicles to use onboard sensor data to estimate the position and orientation of other vehicles. Perception software using simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) algorithms incrementally build a map and estimate the location of a vehicle at the same time. Automated Driving Toolbox™ provides perception software features related to these applications:

  • Detection and Tracking — Object and lane detection, camera sensor configuration, sensor fusion and tracking.

  • Localization and Mapping — Map building using SLAM algorithms and localization with prebuilt maps.

  • Geographic and HD Maps — Live map import from HERE and geographic map visualization.

Planning algorithms use the output from the perception software to determine optimal path and actions that the vehicle must take in order to accurately respond to the changes in the environment. Control algorithms ensure that the vehicle executes the actions, and follows the path planned by the planning software with precision. Automated Driving Toolbox also provides software related to planning and vehicle control.
