Abstract
Techniques and methods for performing collision monitoring using error models. For instance, a vehicle may generate sensor data using one or more sensors. The vehicle may then analyze the sensor data using systems in order to determine parameters associated with the vehicle and parameters associated with another object. Additionally, the vehicle may process the parameters associated with the vehicle using error models associated with the systems in order to determine a distribution of estimated locations associated with the vehicle. The vehicle may also process the parameters associated with the object using the error models in order to determine a distribution of estimated locations associated with the object. Using the distributions of estimated locations, the vehicle may determine the probability of collision between the vehicle and the object.
