COMPUTING ARCHITECTURE OF AN AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE

The technologies described herein relate to a computing architecture in an autonomous vehicle (AV) (100). The AV (100) includes a radar system (102) that includes a local data processing device (204). The AV (100) also includes a centralized data processing device (106). The local data processing device (204) is configured to perform processing on raw sensor data generated by the radar system (102) to form a feature vector. The local data processing device (204) transmits the feature vector to the centralized data processing device (106), which performs further processing to identify an object in an environment of the AV (100).
