Abstract:
In one embodiment, a system of an ADV perceives a driving environment surrounding the ADV using a plurality of sensors mounted on the ADV. The system identifies a blind spot based on the perceived driving environment surrounding the ADV. The system in response to identifying the blind spot, receives an image having the blind spot from an image capturing device disposed within a predetermined proximity of the blind spot. In some embodiments, the system receives the image having the blind spot from a remote server communicatively coupled to the image capturing device. The system identifies an obstacle of interest at the blind spot of the ADV based on the image. The system generates a trajectory based on the obstacle of interest at the blind spot to control the ADV to avoid the obstacle of interest.
