Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	LiDAR (light detection and ranging) and RADAR (radio detection and ranging) systems are commonly used to generate point cloud data for 3D space around vehicles, for such functions as localization, mapping, and tracking. Improved techniques for processing the point cloud data that has been collected are provided. The improved techniques include mapping one or more point cloud data points into a depth map, the one or more point cloud data points being generated using one or more sensors; determining one or more mapped point cloud data points within a bounded area of the depth map, and detecting, using one or more processing units and for an environment surrounding a machine corresponding to the one or more sensors, a location of one or more entities based on the one or more mapped point cloud data points.
