Software-in-the-Loop (SIL) simulations are vital for the development of advanced driver assistance systems and autonomous driving technology. Virtual tools complement the test vehicles for development, testing and verification of automotive software. For the development of a complete simulation framework, multiple components need to co-simulate in a controlled environment. Among those necessary components the driver model plays a key role. There are different approaches for the development of the driver models and one approach is based on path-following, which is a fundamental yet key problem in the development of advanced systems for autonomous cars. Traditional path following methods are often rule based or parameterized which might not be adaptable for complex and dynamical scenarios.
Scope
The main objective is to develop a driver model with a path following approach, which is highly tolerant to rapid changes in our test scenarios. Investigate different path following algorithms and perform comparative analysis in order to find a suitable method for the development of the driver model.
What you’ll bring
We welcome students with academic background in Adaptive Systems or Computer Science or Software Engineering having genuine interest in automotive control, machine learning, algorithms and comparative analysis. Good programming skills with basic knowledge in C++ and python is also essential.
