A computer that includes a processor and a memory can determine a final trajectory for a vehicle by determining a candidate trajectory of a first object based on a detected second object. The candidate trajectory can be input to a reachable polyhedral marching processor to determine dynamic occupancy polyhedrals based on a shape of the candidate trajectory. A reachable tube can be determined based on combining the dynamic occupancy polyhedrals and the final trajectory can be determined based on the reachable tube avoiding the detected second object.

Dynamic bounding box

A computer includes a processor and a memory, and the memory stores instructions executable by the processor to receive a set of points indicating a lane boundary; select a first subset of the points, wherein the set of points includes a first point that is not in the first subset; determine a path of the lane boundary based on the first subset of the points; and, upon determining that the first point is greater than a threshold distance from the path, add the first point to the first subset.

Vehicle map data management

Based on a set of planned control parameters defining a planned path for a vehicle, a set of reference control parameters corresponding to the set of planned path control parameters are identified. Optimized controller inputs associated with the identified set of reference control parameters, the set of planned control parameters, and operation noise data are input to a vehicle dynamics model that outputs a vehicle state model. Based on the vehicle state model, an actual path for the vehicle and an operating range for the actual path are determined. The planned path is determined to be one of verified or unverified based on the operating range.
