Claim 14:
15. An autonomous vehicle comprising:
a control system for the autonomous vehicle comprising:
a time sensitive network switch configured to receive sensor data from light detection and ranging (LIDAR) sensors, radio detection and ranging (RADAR) sensors, or image sensors, wherein the sensor data is representative of estimated objects that are in an external environment of the autonomous vehicle; and
one or more processors coupled to the time sensitive network switch, wherein the one or more processors are configured to receive the sensor data and determine instructions to control movement of the autonomous vehicle at least partially based on the sensor data from the time sensitive network switch and at least partially based on map data, wherein the time sensitive network switch is configured to prioritize transmitting first sensor data of the sensor data to the one or more processors over transmitting second sensor data of the sensor data to the one or more processors; and

a powertrain coupled to the control system and configured to be responsive to the instructions.
