Adaptive Observer for Automated Emergency Maneuvers: Fusing cost-efficient onboard sensors with computer vision into a robust estimate of sideslip angle using online covariance calculation

One of the most promising ideas in autonomous vehicle control systems is letting the vehicle drive autonomously outside the normal, linear, operating region and letting it "drift". By doing so, the maneuverability of the vehicle could be enhanced. To enable systems that can control this behaviour, estimation of certain vehicle states is needed...
