apollo-v8.0.0
Apollo 8.0 is an effort to provide an extensible software framework and complete development cycle for Autonomous Driving developer. Apollo 8.0 introduces easily-reused Package to organize software modules. Apollo 8.0 integrates the whole process of perception development ,by combining model training service, model deployment tool and end-to-end visual validation tool . And another 3 new deep learning models are incorporated in Apollo 8.0 for perception module. Simulation service is upgraded by integrating local simulator in Dreamview to provide powerful debug tool for PnC developer.
