Abstract

Techniques for determining a warped occupancy grid fit to a vehicle trajectory are discussed herein. In some examples, a portion of memory may be allocated to an occupancy grid. Further, a warped occupancy grid can be warped and associated with an environment that an autonomous vehicle is traversing according to a trajectory and/or throughway. A transformation maybe be determined between the warped occupancy grid and the memory allocated to the occupancy grid. Sensor data can be received from a sensor associated with the autonomous vehicle and may be associated with the warped occupancy grid and stored in the occupancy grid. The autonomous vehicle may be controlled according to the warped occupancy grid by identifying sensor data returns in cells of the warped occupancy grid that may indicate a detection of an object in a path of travel of the vehicle.
