Classification: CPC B  G | IPC B  G

Claim 5:
6. The method of claim 2, wherein determining the at least one instantaneous vehicle characteristic is based on the plurality of the corresponding instantaneous velocities of the LIDAR data points of the subgroup and based on the stored model for the dynamic object comprises:
determining a velocity differential based on comparison of a first set velocity magnitude and a second set velocity magnitude, wherein the first set velocity magnitude is based on a first set of the corresponding instantaneous velocities of the LIDAR data points of the subgroup, and wherein the second set velocity magnitude is based on a second set of the corresponding instantaneous velocities of the LIDAR data points of the subgroup; and
converting the velocity differential to the at least one instantaneous vehicle characteristic based on the stored model for the dynamic object.
