Sensor Fusion

Nanodegree Program

The Sensor Fusion Engineer Nanodegree program consists of four courses that teach the fundamentals of sensor fusion and perception for self-driving cars. The program covers lidar, radar, camera, and Kalman filters, and includes lessons on working with real-world data, filtering, segmentation, clustering, and object tracking. In addition, students will work on a capstone project that involves building a complete sensor fusion pipeline for autonomous vehicles. Upon completing the program, graduates will have the skills and knowledge necessary to design and implement sensor fusion systems for self-driving cars.
