Pedestrian path predictions
First Claim
1. A system for pedestrian path predictions, comprising:
- a sensor component identifying an environment, one or more features of the environment, and one or more pedestrians within the environment, wherein the sensor component observes one or more pedestrian states for the respective pedestrians;
a modeling component generating one or more models for one or more of the pedestrians based on one or more features of the environment, wherein a model of one or more of the models is indicative of one or more estimated goals of a corresponding pedestrian indicative of a desired destination for the corresponding pedestrian and one or more predicted paths for the corresponding pedestrian, wherein the model is generated based on one or more of the observed pedestrian states;
a prediction component determining two or more pedestrian path predictions for one or more of the pedestrians based on two or more corresponding predicted paths, wherein a pedestrian path prediction of one or more of the pedestrian path predictions is indicative of a probability that the corresponding pedestrian will travel a corresponding predicted path; and
an interface component rendering two or more of the pedestrian path predictions for two or more of the predicted paths, the rendering including a birds-eye-view of the environment, wherein each of the pedestrian path predictions is rendered to have a length associated with the probability that the corresponding pedestrian will travel on the corresponding predicted path, and wherein the interface component updates the rendering based on additional observed pedestrian states.

Abstract
Systems and techniques for pedestrian path predictions are disclosed herein. For example, an environment, features of the environment, and pedestrians within the environment may be identified. Models for the pedestrians may be generated based on features of the environment. A model may be indicative of goals of a corresponding pedestrian and predicted paths for the corresponding pedestrian. Pedestrian path predictions for the pedestrians may be determined based on corresponding predicted paths. A pedestrian path prediction may be indicative of a probability that the corresponding pedestrian will travel a corresponding predicted path. Pedestrian path predictions may be rendered for the predicted paths, such as using different colors or different display aspects, thereby enabling a driver of a vehicle to be presented with information indicative of where a pedestrian is likely to travel.
