Abstract
An apparatus including a processor unit configured to provide a first high-definition map, a sensor unit configured for providing sensor data representing an environmental condition in a periphery of the apparatus and a receiver unit configured to receive data representing a second high-definition map. The processor unit is configured to fuse the second high-definition map and the sensor data so as to provide the first high-definition map. The apparatus further includes a transmitter unit configured for transmitting a result of fusing the second high-definition map and the sensor data, and includes a command generator unit configured to generate a command signal representing a vehicle control command for a vehicle carrying the apparatus based on the first high-definition map.
