Abstract

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for determining obstacle data based on sensor data such as greyscale data and depth data. Based on the obstacle data navigation data may be determined and used by an autonomous vehicle to navigate an environment such as a warehouse or storage facility. The obstacle data may be determined by determining three-dimensional representations of the greyscale data and the depth data and segmented and combining or fusing the three-dimensional representations of the greyscale data and the depth data. The system used to determine the obstacle data may be trained to avoid false obstructions and omitted obstructions.
