Abstract: Techniques relating to monitoring map consistency are described. In an example, a monitoring component associated with a vehicle can receive sensor data associated with an environment in which the vehicle is positioned. The monitoring component can generate, based at least in part on the sensor data, an estimated map of the environment, wherein the estimated map is encoded with policy information for driving within the environment. The monitoring component can then compare first information associated with a stored map of the environment with second information associated with the estimated map to determine whether the estimated map and the stored map are consistent. Component(s) associated with the vehicle can then control the object based at least in part on results of the comparing.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide techniques for forming a solder mask having a repeating pattern of features formed therein. The repeating pattern of features can be conceptually understood as a plurality of groove structures formed in the solder mask. The solder mask can be included in a semiconductor package that comprises the solder mask over a substrate and a molding compound over the solder mask that conforms to the repeating pattern of features. Several advantages are attributable to embodiments of the solder mask described herein. One advantage is that the repeating pattern of features formed in the solder mask increase the contact area between the solder mask and the molding compound. Increasing the contact area can assist with increasing adherence and conformance of the molding compound to the solder mask. This increased adherence and conformance assists with minimizing or eliminating interfacial delamination.

Abstract: Techniques for verifying a reliability of map data are discussed herein. In some examples, map data can be used by a vehicle, such as an autonomous vehicle, to traverse an environment.

When the sensor data is image data, images data from multiple perspectives or different time instances may be combined to generate the estimated map. The estimated map may be compared to a stored map or to a proposed vehicle trajectory or corridor to determine a reliability of the stored map data.
