Abstract
Sensor data captured at by different sensors may be shared across different sensor processing pipelines. Sensor processing pipelines may process captured sensor data from respective sensors. Some of the sensor data that is received or processed at one sensor data processing pipeline may be provided to another sensor data processing pipeline so that subsequent processing stages at the recipient sensor processing pipeline may process the combined sensor data in order to determine a perception decision. Different types of sensor data may be shared, including raw sensor data, processed sensor data, or data derived from sensor data. A control system may perform control actions based on the perception decisions determined by the sensor processing pipelines that share sensor data.
