Abstract
A system and method for generating a bounding box for an object in proximity to a vehicle are disclosed. The method includes: receiving a three-dimensional (3D) point cloud representative of an environment; receiving a two-dimensional (2D) image of the environment; processing the 3D point cloud to identify an object cluster of 3D data points for a 3D object in the 3D point cloud; processing the 2D image to detect a 2D object in the 2D image and generate information regarding the 2D object from the 2D image; and when the 3D object and the 2D object correspond to the same object in the environment: generating a bird's eye view (BEV) bounding box for the object based on the object cluster of 3D data points and the information from the 2D image.
