Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to comprehensively explore the recent advancements in Advanced Sensing Technologies crucial for the progression of autonomous driving, encompassing topics such as Physical and Digital Infrastructure, AI, Deep Learning, Cooperative Fusion, and HD Maps. As autonomous vehicle technologies evolve, the pivotal role of advanced sensing becomes increasingly apparent, particularly in enhancing safety, perception, and overall system reliability.
Addressing challenges posed by factors such as interferences, weather conditions, and the limited field of view in existing sensor technologies, the Special Issue seeks innovative solutions by integrating advanced sensors. Deploying sensors across different wave bands and with diverse characteristics is considered imperative for effectively tackling these challenges.
Research contributions are invited to delve into topics such as novel sensor technologies, advances in sensor and data processing, and embedded/distributed/collaborative architectures. Emphasis is placed not only on ensuring the accuracy and reliability of sensor data but also on fostering seamless cooperation between sensors for a comprehensive perception of the vehicle's surroundings.
Additionally, the Special Issue welcomes contributions exploring the intersection of Advanced Sensing Technologies with Physical and Digital Infrastructure, leveraging AI and Deep Learning for enhanced sensor capabilities. Cooperative Fusion strategies, promoting collaboration among sensors and vehicles, are explored to facilitate a more holistic understanding of the dynamic environment. Furthermore, the integration of HD Maps in autonomous driving systems is emphasized to provide an additional layer of precision for navigation and real-time decision-making.
Keywords encompass sensor fusion, sensor processing, multi-sensor integration, environmental perception, autonomous driving, Advanced Sensor Technologies, Physical Infrastructure, Digital Infrastructure, AI, Deep Learning, Cooperative Fusion, and HD Maps.
In summary, this Special Issue endeavours to present a state-of-the-art exploration of Advanced Sensing Technologies, integrating discussions on Physical and Digital Infrastructure, AI, Deep Learning, Cooperative Fusion, and HD Maps. Contributions in these areas are encouraged to propel the field towards a future of intelligent, reliable, and context-aware autonomous driving.
