Job Description
The Glydways perception team designs and implements a perception system that includes data fusion from state-of-the-art sensors (e.g., LIDAR, RADAR, High definition cameras, Ultra-wide-band radios, etc.) and robust detection, classification, and tracking of any and all obstacles that could present a hazard to the vehicle (Glydcars) in the system. The perception system reasons about information from each Glydcar and from regularly spaced sensor pods monitoring the road network.
The team’s deliverables include: Documenting a detailed design for enacting a safe system that can be certified by public transportation authorities, implementing said design on mature prototype vehicles in demonstrations to customers, potential customers, and investors,expanding the design to include fail-operational capabilities that extend the overall system to safely give our customers a more comfortable experience, and managing data collection, autonomy testing, and milestone demonstration events that showcase the system’s maturing capabilities, leading to a production system.
