Title:
Multi-Sensor Fusion of Electronic Scanning Radars, GNSS and Onboard Sensors for Autonomous Driving
Agreement Number:
980433
Agreement Value:
$290,000.00
Agreement Date:
Nov 1, 2021 - Feb 28, 2023
Description:
This project will develop a multi-sensor fusion software for seamless positioning at decimeter level of accuracy with high integrity for autonomous vehicles (AVs) integrating data from onboard motion sensors, GNSS receiver and Electronic Scanning Radars (ESR). The new software will enable robust positioning and mapping for AVs and will sustain the decimeter level of positioning performance seamlessly everywhere in all operating conditions for autonomy levels three and higher.
