Scalable sensor fusion and autonomous x-by-wire control

摘要

An autonomous system for x-by-wire control includes processing nodes distributed and connected to one another. Sensors are connected to the processing nodes. Actuators are configured to directly control the autonomous system driven by and connected to the processing nodes for x-by-wire control. The processing nodes are configured to: partition and map processing tasks between the processing nodes, and merge and reduce results of individual processing tasks into an actionable table that specifies objectives for the autonomous system.
