Abstract

System, methods, and other embodiments described herein relate to improving the synchronizing of systems in a vehicle without relying on external controls or hardware. In one embodiment, a method includes detecting a stop of a vehicle according to data acquired from two or more sensors. The method also includes identifying motion from the stop according to the data and corresponding timestamps from the two or more sensors, wherein the data and the corresponding timestamps are internal to the two or more sensors. The method also includes synchronizing the two or more sensors according to the corresponding timestamps. The method also includes controlling the motion of the vehicle using the two or more sensors.
