Abstract

A system and method for selecting a trajectory to traverse comprises receiving a primary trajectory, determining, based at least in part on the primary trajectory, a primary area traversed by the sensor platform in accordance with the primary trajectory and a secondary area traversed by the sensor platform in accordance with a contingent trajectory, and determining, based at least in part on a sensor associated with the sensor platform, that an object is located at least partly within a combined area comprising the primary and secondary area. Upon determining that an object is in the combined area, determining, based at least in part on the object being located at least partly within the combined area, a probability of a collision with the object; and controlling, based at least in part on the determined probability of collision, the sensor platform.
