Abstract
An unmanned device acquires sensing data of surrounding obstacles; determines, for each obstacle, at least one predicted track of the obstacle in a future period of time based on the sensing data; determines, for each moment in the future period of time and according to the predicted track corresponding to the obstacle, a collision probability that a collision with the obstacle occurs at each position in a target region at the moment; and determines a global collision probability that the collision with the obstacle occurs in the entire target region at the moment. According to the global collision probability corresponding to each obstacle at each moment, the unmanned device controls the unmanned device in the future period of time.
