Road corridor
Abstract:
A method includes identifying a current position of the vehicle, using sensor data; generating, via a processor, an initial corridor seeding based upon the current position of the vehicle and physical characteristics of the road, without consideration of any other objects on the roadway; identifying a plurality of objects along a first side of the roadway, the first side including a side of the roadway in which the vehicle is traveling, using the sensor data; generating, via the processor, a target first boundary for the corridor based on the identified plurality of objects along the first side of the roadway; generating, via the processor, a target second boundary on a second side of the roadway, opposite the first side; and adjusting, via the processor, the initial corridor seeding based on the target first and second boundaries, thereby generating the corridor of travel for the vehicle along the roadway.
