Abstract

Sensors, including radar sensors, may be used to detect objects in an environment. In an example, a vehicle may include multiple radar sensors that sense objects around the vehicle, e.g., so the vehicle can navigate relative to the objects. Data from a first of the radar sensors can be analyzed to determine a cluster representing an object. Data received from a second sensor (and additional sensors, as included) at substantially the same time can be analyzed to determine additional points to include in the cluster. In additional examples, the radar sensors can have a different interval, e.g., Doppler interval, and information about the points and the intervals can be used to determine a speed of the object relative to the vehicle.
