First Claim
1. A method for processing sensor data for a vehicle, the method comprising:
- identifying a dynamic condition in an environment around the vehicle using a sensor system including a plurality of redundant sensors, wherein the dynamic condition is a real-time change in the environment around the vehicle; and
selecting sensor data from a set of sensors within the plurality of redundant sensors of the sensor system based on the dynamic condition, wherein the identifying step comprises obtaining the environment around the vehicle from a knowledge base that comprises information about the dynamic condition and the plurality of redundant sensors.

Abstract
The illustrative embodiments provide a method for processing sensor data and controlling the movement of a vehicle. An operating environment around the vehicle is identified and sensor data is selected from a set of sensors. A dynamic condition is identified using a plurality of different types of sensors on the vehicle. In response to the dynamic condition being identified, the movement of the vehicle is controlled. Sensor data for a plurality of vehicles is managed by receiving sensor data at the plurality of vehicles, each with a plurality of sensors. In response to a selected vehicle within the plurality of vehicles being unable to obtain needed sensor data, collected sensor data from a number of other vehicles in the plurality of vehicles can be obtained to form alternate sensor data used to control the vehicle.
