Abstract: Example embodiments relate techniques and systems for generating multi-axis radar velocity images using stereo radar. A vehicle radar system receives radar first radar data from a first radar and second radar data from a second radar, which are coupled at different locations on a vehicle traveling in an environment. The system determines a first radial speed and a second radial speed for an object based on the first and second radar data, respectively, and then estimates a velocity vector for the object relative to the vehicle based on the first and second radial speeds. The system can provide the estimated velocity vector as an input into a neural network and enable vehicle systems to control the vehicle based on the output from the neural network.

Abstract: A method can comprise conducting trick phases comprising players playing suit cards each having a suit value. A player can play one or more suit cards, and an opponent can play one or more suit cards. A trick phase winner can be determined based on the total suit value of each player's played suit cards. The trick phase winner can collect all played suit cards, which can be called trick cards. There can be one or more active enemy cards, and the trick phase winner can assign the trick cards as damage to the active enemy cards as desired. In response to an active enemy card being defeated by the assigned trick cards, a reward card can be drawn having a victory point value. A player wins the game by having a victory point total equal to or exceeding a victory point threshold.

Abstract: Example embodiments relate to techniques for modifying power consumption of an autonomy system. For instance, a vehicle autonomy system may use sensor data from vehicle sensors to determine information about the surrounding environment and estimate one or more conditions expected for a threshold duration during subsequent navigation of the path by the vehicle.

The vehicle can then be controlled based on subsequent sensor data obtained after adjusting operation of the components of the autonomy system thereby increasing the efficiency of the autonomy system in accordance with the vehicle's surrounding environment.
