  • Patent number: 10841776
    Abstract: Techniques for updating data operations in a perception system are discussed herein. A vehicle may use a perception system to capture data about an environment proximate to the vehicle. The perception system may receive image data, lidar data, and/or radar data to determine information about an object in the environment. As different sensors may be associated with different time periods for capturing and/or processing operations, the techniques include updating object data with data from sensors associated with a shorter time period to generate intermediate object data. Such intermediate object data may reduce a delay in updating a position of an object in an environment, which may improve reaction time(s) and/or safety outcomes in systems implementing such perception systems, such as an autonomous vehicle.
