Radar and Camera Sensor Fusion with ROS for Autonomous Driving

Abstract

As we are diving deeper into the world of Autonomous Driving, we need a more reliable and robust system which can sense the surrounding of a vehicle in all-weather conditions and at any time of the day. Apart from this, we also need a system which is highly accurate in terms of measuring the parameters like distance and velocity of the objects in its field of view. Keeping these factors in mind we have proposed a robust model to fuse camera and radar data, which is an economical choice with a proven performance. This model is implemented using Robot Operating System (ROS) environment, which is an Open source middleware for Autonomous Driving Application.
