Abstract
Disclosed are methods and devices related to autonomous driving. In one aspect, a method is disclosed. The method includes determining three-dimensional bounding indicators for one or more first objects in road target information captured by a light detection and ranging (LIDAR) sensor; determining camera bounding indicators for one or more second objects in road image information captured by a camera sensor; processing the road image information to generate a camera matrix; determining projected bounding indicators from the camera matrix and the three-dimensional bounding indicators; determining, from the projected bounding indicators and the camera bounding indicators, associations between the one or more first objects and the one or more second objects to generate combined target information; and applying, by the autonomous driving system, the combined target information to produce a vehicle control signal.
