Abstract:
Systems and methods are provided for detecting collisions between objects and an autonomous vehicle. The system includes a computer vision system configured to use acquired environmental data to determine a velocity vector of an object relative to the autonomous vehicle and a distance between the object and the autonomous vehicle. The autonomous driving system also includes a vehicle motion sensing module configured to use acquired vehicle motion data to determine an acceleration vector of the autonomous vehicle. The autonomous driving system also includes a collision detection module configured to register a collision between the object and the autonomous vehicle when the determined acceleration vector is detected having a direction that is substantially the same as a direction of the determined velocity vector of the object and when the determined distance between the object and the autonomous vehicle is less than a predetermined amount.

Claim (Index 1):
An autonomous driving system for a vehicle, the autonomous driving system comprising:\n a computer vision system configured to use acquired environmental data to determine a velocity vector of an object relative to the vehicle and a distance between the object and the vehicle; a vehicle motion sensing module configured to use acquired vehicle motion data to determine an acceleration vector of the vehicle; and a collision detection module configured to register a collision between the object and the autonomous vehicle when the determined acceleration vector is correlated to the determined velocity vector of the object and when the determined distance between the object and the vehicle is less than a predetermined amount.
