Abstract
An autonomous driving computing system may include an on-board computing system that is configured to perform first operations that include obtaining sensor data relating to an autonomous vehicle (AV). The first operations may include sending the obtained sensor data to an off-board cloud computing system. The autonomous driving computing system may include the off-board cloud computing system, which may be configured to perform second operations that include receiving the sensor data and performing computations relating to the driving operation of the AV based on the obtained sensor data. The second operations may include determining a control signal corresponding to a driving operation and sending the control signal to the on-board computing system. The first operations may involve the on-board computing system receiving, from the off-board cloud computing system, the control signal corresponding to the driving operation of the AV and performing the driving operation by implementing the control signal.
