Advancements in sensor technology have enabled autonomous systems to operate efficiently and safely in the Internet of Vehicles environment. Multisensor image fusion is a crucial component in enhancing the capabilities of these autonomous systems by combining information from multiple sensors such as cameras, LiDAR, radar, and ultrasonic sensors. This book delves into the role of multisensor image fusion in the Internet of Vehicles for autonomous systems. It will cover the fundamental concepts of multisensor image fusion, different fusion methods, and their applications in autonomous systems for the IoV. It will also address the challenges associated with multisensor fusion, such as sensor calibration, synchronization, and noise reduction and discuss the benefits of multisensor fusion in improving object detection, tracking, and decision-making processes in autonomous vehicles operating in the IoV. This book is a comprehensive overview of multisensor image fusion in the context of IoV for autonomous systems, highlighting its importance in achieving reliable and robust autonomous navigation in dynamic and complex environments.
