Original Abstract Submitted
disclosed herein are systems and methods for providing supplemental identification abilities to an autonomous vehicle system. the sensor unit of the vehicle may be configured to receive data indicating an environment of the vehicle, while the control system may be configured to operate the vehicle. the vehicle may also include a processing unit configured to analyze the data indicating the environment to determine at least one object having a detection confidence below a threshold. based on the at least one object having a detection confidence below a threshold, the processor may communicate at least a subset of the data indicating the environment for further processing. the vehicle is also configured to receive an indication of an object confirmation of the subset of the data. based on the object confirmation of the subset of the data, the processor may alter the control of the vehicle by the control system.
