A Physical Test Artifact For Evaluating Edge Cases Of Individual And Fused Automated Driving Perception Sensors, Colin Schaefer
Dissertations, Master's Theses and Master's Reports
With the advent of technologies to support autonomous vehicles (AVs), the number of different AV models from a variety of companies and organizations has proliferated. With this increase in options comes the need to physically evaluate their perception systems. However, there is a lack of standard methods to physically evaluate these perception systems. A set of test artifacts can be used to compare the performances of perception systems, but the artifacts must be usable with different types of perception sensors and various sensor fusion systems. This thesis presents the development of an artifact that injects edge case scenarios into the …
