Extended Object Tracking: What is it and why is it important for autonomous navigation in inland waterways?
One of the most important tasks when navigating a vessel is avoiding other vessels. A ship captain can rely on tools like the Automatic Identification System (AIS), radar, and communication with other vessels, but they ultimately use their vision to assess the situation. An autonomous vessel must replicate these capabilities. To safely navigate narrow and crowded inland waterways, autonomous ships must perceive other vessels and react in real time.
