Resumo: "I this work is presented a simple yet effective moving object tracking and handling tech-
nique for self-driving cars we called Symotha. Symotha uses an obstacle-distance grid map

(ODGM), in which each cell holds the coordinates and the distance to its nearest obstacle, for
inferring the state of relevant moving objects. It does so by successively searching for occupied

cells across the self-driving-car’s path and its neighboring left and right lanes. Successful de-
tections are accumulated over time to produce location and velocity estimates of moving ob-
jects. Symotha handles moving objects by changing the self-driving car’s longitudinal speed in

order (a) to keep proper distance from moving objects and (b) to allow a smooth driving expe-
rience. In addition, it changes the ODGM seen by other modules of the self-driving car in such

a way as to hide moving objects from then, which simplifies their implementation significantly.
Experiments demonstrate that Symotha can safely handle both static and dynamic obstacles
without compromising on driving smoothness."
