Sensor Fusion and Tracking for Autonomous Systems: An Overview

Perception is at the core of research and development efforts for autonomous systems, and sensor fusion and multiobject tracking are critical components of perception systems. Fusing data from multiple sensors enables surveillance systems and autonomous systems to maintain position, orientation, and situational awareness. This ebook describes:

  • The four general capabilities all autonomous systems need to have: sense, perceive, decide & plan, and act
  • Where sensor fusion fits within these capabilities
  • The benefits of multiple data sources and sensor fusion

Read this ebook to get a clear and succinct introduction to sensor fusion techniques and their benefits when designing autonomous systems.
