Systems, methods, tangible non-transitory computer-readable media, and devices associated with sensor output segmentation are provided. For example, sensor data can be accessed. The sensor data can include sensor data returns representative of an environment detected by a sensor across the sensor's field of view. Each sensor data return can be associated with a respective bin of a plurality of bins corresponding to the field of view of the sensor. Each bin can correspond to a different portion of the sensor's field of view. Channels can be generated for each of the plurality of bins and can include data indicative of a range and an azimuth associated with a sensor data return associated with each bin. Furthermore, a semantic segment of a portion of the sensor data can be generated by inputting the channels for each bin into a machine-learned segmentation model trained to generate an output including the semantic segment.

Systems and methods for implementing a low-latency braking action for an autonomous vehicle are provided. A computing system can include a vehicle autonomy system comprising one or more processors configured to determine a motion plan for an autonomous vehicle based at least in part on sensor data from one or more sensors of the autonomous vehicle. The computing system can further include a low-latency braking system comprising one or more processors configured to determine that the autonomous vehicle has a likelihood of colliding with an object in a surrounding environment based at least in part on a previously-determined motion plan obtained from the vehicle autonomy system. In response to determining that the autonomous vehicle has a likelihood of colliding with the object in the surrounding environment, the low-latency braking system can further be configured to implement a braking action for the autonomous vehicle.
