Original Abstract Submitted
data fusion of radio frequency (rf) and visual data is provided. via a transceiver of a vehicle, a vehicle-to-everything (v2x) message is received from a remote road entity, the v2x message including one or more v2x data elements descriptive of the remote road entity. using a camera of the vehicle, modulated light data is captured within a sensing area surrounding an ego road entity, the modulated light data being sent from the remote road entity. a modulated light transmission in the modulated light data is decoded to identify one or more light data elements in the modulated light data descriptive of the road entity. an association of the one or more v2x data elements is performed with the one or more light data elements to identify associated v2x camera objects where the v2x message and the modulated light data are fused into a combined representation of the remote road entity.
