According to one aspect, an apparatus includes a first set of sensors, a second set of sensors, a sensor data aggregator that includes a first assembly and a second assembly, and a computing system. The first assembly is configured to obtain and to process a first set of sensor data from the first set of sensors, and the second assembly is configured to obtain and to process a second set of sensor data from the second set of sensors. The computing system is configured to obtain the first and second sets of sensor data processed by the sensor data aggregator, and to implement primary autonomy functionalities based on the first set of sensor data and the second set of sensor data, wherein the sensor data aggregator is configured to implement backup autonomy functionalities concurrently with the primary autonomy functionalities being implemented.
