lgsvl simulator for teledriving? #1425

Open poornimajd opened 3 years ago

poornimajd commented 3 years ago

Thanks for the open-source. Can the simulator be used to simulate teleoperated driving,the vehicle is on a different network A and the operator,trying to operate the vehicle is on a different network B,and sends command over ROS2.Do you have any suggestions on this aspect?Or has this been tried before?

Thank you

Hi @poornimajd! Yes, the simulator can be used for testing teleoperation systems. Depending on what exactly you are wanting to do, the setup and configuration would vary (e.g. human in the loop, hardware in the loop, etc.). It's hard to suggest specifics without knowing more about what you're trying to do but some companies use this to train teleoperation users in simulation before letting them control real vehicles. Depending on the required configuration, you may need to create or modify some plug-ins to interface with the teleop system; if you have more specific questions feel free to ask.
