Planning for any possible
route involves fusion of
splines, 3D maps, previous autonomous runs, satellite imagery,
and USGS/NASA maps.
Spirit follows paths created
through superior artificial intelligence coding, with sub-centimeter
position accuracy, for hours and hours of autonomous driving.
Path Planning:
(ε,α,β)-expansive
Splines
Splines help to smooth Spirt's path through curves.
Field Testing
During field tests, real-time weather data helps plan path.
USGS & NASA
Information from many sources help in path planning.
Path Plans
AI code, Linux, and field testing adjusts all previous plans.
