Abstract
An automated driving system comprising a first sensor providing first sensor data, a second sensor providing second sensor data, wherein the first and second sensors are different types of sensors and a processor communicatively coupled to the first sensor and the second sensor. The processor is configured to transform the first and second sensor data into a common three-dimensional coordinate system to create a representation of an image for a field of view corresponding to a direction of travel, identify one or more objects in the field of view, and generate one or more drive control signals to control a motion of the vehicle in response to the one or more objects in the field of view.
