Abstract

Provided herein is a system and method of a vehicle. The system comprises one or more sensors, processors, maps, and a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, causes the system to perform: monitoring a location of the vehicle while driving; detecting a sign while the vehicle is driving; capturing, frame-by-frame, data of the sign until the sign disappears from a field of view of the sensor; synchronizing each frame of the data with the location of the vehicle; determining a location of the sign based on the frame-by-frame data; in response to determining, at a frame immediately before the sign disappears from the field of view of the sensor, that the vehicle is driving towards the sign, uploading the detected sign and the location of the sign onto the one or more maps; and implementing a driving action based on the sign.
