Abstract
Modifying autonomous vehicle sensors cameras based on detected lighting boundaries, including: determining, based on video data, that a vehicle will pass through a lighting boundary; determining, based on the video data, that an illumination of a predicted input to a camera of the vehicle after passing the lighting boundary falls outside a range of illumination based on a current exposure setting of the camera; and modifying, in response to determining that the illumination of the predicted input falls outside the range of illumination, an exposure setting of one or more cameras.
