US Patent 11551429 Photorealistic image simulation with geometry-aware composition

The present disclosure provides systems and methods for generating photorealistic image simulation data with geometry-aware composition for testing autonomous vehicles. In particular, aspects of the present disclosure can involve the intake of data on an environment and output of augmented data on the environment with the photorealistic addition of an object. As one example, data on the driving experiences of a self-driving vehicle can be augmented to add another vehicle into the collected environment data. The augmented data may then be used to test safety features of software for a self-driving vehicle.
