APPARATUS FOR DETERMINING SHORT DISTANCE CUT-IN TARGET - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18240194 titled 'APPARATUS FOR DETERMINING SHORT DISTANCE CUT-IN TARGET

Simplified Explanation

The apparatus described in the patent application is designed to determine a short cut-in target using sensor information from a LiDAR sensor mounted on a vehicle. The processor generates a Region of Interest (ROI) on a grid map, sets a cut-in reference line based on sensor information, and adjusts a dynamic object fusion (DOF) track based on the set reference line.

  • The apparatus utilizes sensor information from a LiDAR sensor to create a ROI on a grid map.
  • It sets a cut-in reference line based on the sensor information on the generated grid map.
  • The processor controls the adjustment of a dynamic object fusion (DOF) track based on the set cut-in reference line.

Original Abstract Submitted

An apparatus for determining a short cut-in target includes a processor, wherein the processor is configured to generate a ROI on a grid map by use of sensor information provided from a Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) sensor mounted on a vehicle, sets a cut-in reference line based on a sensor information on the generated grid map, and is configured to control to adjust a dynamic object fusion (DOF) track based on the set cut-in reference line.
