Abstract

See full text

An automated driving system is disclosed. The automated driving system includes an elevated perception system disposed above a vehicle and a computing device in communication with the elevated perception system. The computing device includes one or more processors for controlling the operations of the computing device and a memory for storing data and program instructions used by the one or more processors. The one or more processors are configured to execute instructions stored in the memory to detect, based on one or more images captured by the elevated perception system, a traffic condition proximate the vehicle. The one or more processors are further configured to send a command to one or more vehicle systems to implement one or more vehicle maneuvers based on the detected traffic condition. The time to detection of the traffic condition is shorter than is possible using a traditional perception system disposed on the vehicle.
