Abstract

A system including at least one memory and at least one processor coupled to the at least one memory is disclosed. The at least one processor is configured to: receive, from a sensor on an autonomous vehicle, sensor data; receive, from a camera on the autonomous vehicle, camera data; provide a frame of the camera data overlaid with a respective frame of the sensor data to a user; receive a user annotation indicative of an actor in the frame, where the user annotation encloses a first set of points associated with the actor; generate an a virtual annotation enclosing a second set of points associated with the actor; determine that a point in the second set of points is older than a reference time; project the point to a new position based on a kinematic model; generate a temporally aggregated actor to determine a quality of the user input.
