Abstract: An autonomous vehicle including a microphone array of a plurality of microphones, a visual sensor network configured to receive visual signals, at least one processor, and at least one memory storing instructions is disclosed. The instructions, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to: (i) generate spatial beamforming maps locating a sound source using a beamforming model corresponding to acoustic signals received at the plurality of microphones of the microphone array; (ii) apply a synthetic aperture expansion to the acoustic signals to increase resolution of the spatial beamforming maps; and (iii) generate feature maps for an application in autonomous vehicle driving by combining the improved spatial beamforming maps with visualization maps generated based on the visual signals received by the visual sensor network.

Abstract: An autonomous vehicle including a network of sensors including a plurality of acoustic sensors and a plurality of visual sensors, at least one processor, and at least one memory storing instructions is disclosed. The instructions, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to: (i) generate spatial beamforming maps locating a sound source based upon acoustic signals received at the plurality of acoustic sensors; (ii) identify a type of an object generating the acoustic signals received at the plurality of acoustic sensors based upon comparison of the acoustic signals with a plurality of acoustic signals and respective objects stored in a dataset; and (iii) generate feature maps for an application in an autonomous vehicle driving by enhancing visualization maps generated based upon visual signals received by the plurality of visual sensors.
