This technology relates to a system for preventing particle buildup on a sensor housing. The system may include a sensor housing including a first surface, a motor, and a spoiler edge. The motor may be configured to rotate the sensor housing around an axis. The spoiler edge may be positioned adjacent to the first surface and extended away from the first surface perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the sensor housing.

A vehicle lamp includes: a lamp housing; a lamp cover; an illumination unit disposed in a lamp chamber; a radar configured to acquire radar data indicating surroundings of a vehicle by emitting an electromagnetic wave outside the vehicle; a concealing part that faces the radar to conceal the radar from the outside of the vehicle and is configured to let the electromagnetic wave emitted from the radar through; a support member that is fixed to a vehicle body and is configured to support and fix the radar; and a positioning part that is disposed between the concealing part and the support member and is configured to position the radar to the concealing part. The concealing part is formed integrally with the lamp cover. The positioning part is fixed to the concealing part and is configured to engage with the support member elastically.

A first camera unit (111) acquires an image including at least an area ahead of a vehicle based on a first optical axis (X1). A second camera unit (112) acquires an image including at least an area on the left of the vehicle based on a second optical axis (X2). When viewed from an up-down direction of the vehicle, the first optical axis (X1) and the second optical axis (X2) intersect with each other.

A vehicle system is provided in a vehicle that is capable of running in an autonomous driving mode. The vehicle system includes: a sensor configured to acquire detection data indicating a surrounding environment of the vehicle; a generator configured to generate surrounding environment information indicating a surrounding environment of the vehicle, based on the detection data; and a use frequency setting module configured to set a use frequency for the sensor, based on predetermined information related to the vehicle or surrounding environment of the vehicle.

Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to a method for object detection. The method includes receiving sensor data indicative of one or more objects for each of a camera subsystem, a LiDAR subsystem, and an imaging RADAR subsystem. The sensor data is received simultaneously and within one frame for each of the subsystems. The method also includes extracting one or more feature representations of the objects from camera image data, LiDAR point cloud data and imaging RADAR point cloud data and generating image feature maps, LiDAR feature maps and imaging RADAR feature maps. The method further includes combining the image feature maps, the LiDAR feature maps and the imaging RADAR feature maps to generate merged feature maps and generating object classification, object position, object dimensions, object heading and object velocity from the merged feature maps.

Provided is a radar and light emission assembly for emitting light and radar radiation and for detecting at least reflected radar radiation including: a headlight including a light-transparent headlight cover, and a light source, and a light reflector; a radar module, which is arranged behind the headlight cover, integrated in the headlight and including a radar antenna unit. The radar and light emission assembly has at least one radar radiation-forming mechanism, in particular a frequency-selective radar radiation-forming mechanism, including a radar radiation-forming mechanism, which is integrated in the headlight cover. The application of the radar technology, integrated in the headlight, can be further optimized hereby. The invention further relates to a method and a use for a radar and light emission assembly of this type.

A radar device for a vehicle, the radar device including: an antenna provided on an inner surface of a lamp for a vehicle and configured to transmit and receive electromagnetic waves; and a signal processing module provided in the lamp and configured to process a signal received by the antenna, such that it is possible to obtain an advantageous effect of simplifying a structure and improving a degree of design freedom and spatial utilization.
