Abstract
The present disclosure is directed to combining the strengths of different methods of analyzing collected sensor data to updating a driving pattern of an automated vehicle (AV). This may include combining data from sets of data that track movement of objects over time with instantaneously received sensor data based on a series of steps that include accessing data that tracks the motion of objects in the field of view of a sensing apparatus, receiving current sensor data that includes a component of current or instantaneous object motion, and identifying whether controls of AV should be maintained or changed. When controls of the AV are maintained, an AV may be controlled to stay in driving in a same lane of a roadway at a same velocity. When controls of an AV are changed, changes may include applying, increasing a velocity, or altering the course of the AV.
