Abstract

A vehicle computing system may implement techniques to improve collision prediction and avoidance between a vehicle and objects in an environment. A vehicle computing system of the vehicle generates a relevance polygon associated with a planned path of the vehicle based at least in part on a speed associated with the vehicle traveling through the environment. The vehicle computing system identifies objects in the environment and determines whether the objects are located within a boundary of the relevance polygon. Based on a determination that an object is within the boundary, the vehicle computing system determines that the object is relevant to the vehicle and includes data associated therewith in vehicle control planning considerations.
