An Operating System for Future Autonomous Vehicles

Autonomous Vehicles Storage

AVS is a storage system designed for autonomous vehicles, which aims at giving a clear picture of the significant interactions between the environment and the autonomous driving system by storing a set of data.

The two functions of AVS are:

  • Long-term Data Storage: This component will focus on storing large-scale, detailed data, including edge cases encountered by AVs, to improve algorithm and model performance over time.
  • Short-term Data Storage: Serving as a "Black Box" for vehicles, this function will store recent driving data, enabling accident analysis, assisting insurance companies, government authorities, and users in determining causes during incidents like crashes.
