Assignee: WAYMO LLC
Field: Computer technology (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC B  G | IPC B  G

Claim 14:
15. An apparatus comprising:
one or more image sensors coupled to a vehicle;
at least one processor configured to:
cause a component of the vehicle to induce motion of the one or more image sensors;
capture, in a burst sequence using the one or more image sensors, multiple image frames of an image of a scene, the multiple image frames having respective, relative offsets of the image across the multiple image frames due to the induced motion of the one or more image sensors during the burst sequence;
perform super-resolution computations using the captured, multiple image frames of the image of the scene;
accumulate, based on the super-resolution computations, color planes;
combine, using the one or more processors, the accumulated color planes to create a super-resolution image of the scene; and
control navigation of the vehicle based on at least the super-resolution image.
