Controller for automated car #31

Open bazilinskyy opened 4 years ago

bazilinskyy commented 4 years ago

It would be important to be able to control the cars with a controller. Currently, the automated car seems to have a clunky controller (not a smooth PID controller) and sticks to 30 kph. It would be good to be able to have the freedom and adjust e.g. the speed of the car based on e.g. the speed of another car, or the implement an automation-to-manual take over. Most of this is possible already but would be good to have an easy-to-use framework to control the behaviour of the automated car. Goes together with https://github.com/bazilinskyy/coupled-sim/issues/30.

The main idea of this issue is to build a framework that allows for more or less manageable by (non-IT) science people control of the car based on other events in the world. Also, we did a whole line of research on take-over request (TOR, see some paragraphs in the introduction of https://www.researchgate.net/publication/281319937_Take-over_requests_in_highly_automated_driving_A_crowdsourcing_multimedia_survey_on_auditory_vibrotactile_and_visual_displays if you are bored), so it would be good to add a mechanism to allow for the transition of control manual <> automated.
