1. A method for situation aware processing, the method comprises:
detecting a situation, based on first sensed information at a first period; wherein the situation comprises a road condition and at least one of (i) a behavior of road users captured in the first sensed information, (ii) locations of the road users, (iii) a risk associated with a driving of an autonomous vehicle within an environment captured in the first period, or (iv) a complexity associated with driving the autonomous vehicle within the environment captured in the first period;
selecting, from reference information, a situation related subset of the reference information, wherein the situation related subset of the reference information is related to the situation;
performing, by a situation related processing unit, a situation related processing, wherein the situation related processing is based on the situation related subset of the reference information and on second sensed information sensed at a second period, wherein the situation related processing comprises at least one out of object detection and object behavior estimation; and
responding to an outcome of the situation related processing unit, wherein the responding comprises autonomously driving the autonomous vehicle in response to an outcome of the situation related processing.
