Abstract

Active sensor fusion systems and methods may include a plurality of sensors, a plurality of detection algorithms, and an active sensor fusion algorithm. Based on detection hypotheses received from the plurality of detection algorithms, the active sensor fusion algorithm may instruct or direct modifications to one or more of the plurality of sensors or the plurality of detection algorithms. In this manner, operations of the plurality of sensors or processing of the plurality of detection algorithms may be refined or adjusted to provide improved object detection with greater accuracy, speed, and reliability.
