Abstract: Example aspects of the present disclosure are directed to improved systems and methods for testing autonomous vehicle operation through the use of mobile test devices that are controlled at least in part in response to predictive motion planning associated with autonomous vehicles. More particularly, the motion of a mobile test device can be controlled based on the motion plan of an autonomous vehicle to cause desired interactions between the mobile test device and the autonomous vehicle. Motion planning data associated with the autonomous vehicle can be obtained by an autonomous vehicle (AV) test system prior to the autonomous vehicle implementing or completely implementing a motion plan. In this manner, the AV test system can proactively control the mobile test device based on predictive motion planning data to facilitate interactions between the mobile test device and the autonomous vehicle that may not otherwise be achievable.
