Hello As you suggested I have gone through all the tutorials and f1tenth project. Now I was wondering whether I can see the final command format which are being send to vehicle interface module. So in what file should I try to log to print statements in my terminal. |

Dear Autoware Community,
I'm writing to humbly request assistance as I embark on my journey with Autoware. As a complete beginner in the field of autonomous robotics, I'm incredibly enthusiastic about the potential of Autoware to empower me in building and operating my own RC bot equipped with various hardware sensors.
I've been actively exploring the Autoware documentation and resources, and I'm impressed by the project's depth and capabilities. However, I'm encountering challenges in navigating the intricacies of setting up Autoware for real-world deployment on RC hardware, particularly in integrating the various sensors I plan to utilize.
Specific areas where I would deeply appreciate guidance include:
RC Hardware Compatibility: I'm uncertain about the compatibility between Autoware and the specific RC car model I've chosen (please specify your RC car model here). Any insights or recommendations on compatible hardware platforms or resources for evaluating compatibility would be immensely valuable.
Sensor Integration: I'm planning to incorporate an array of sensors (mention the specific sensors you plan to use, e.g., LiDAR, IMU, cameras) to enhance the bot's perception capabilities. I'm struggling to understand the process of integrating these sensors with Autoware and configuring them for effective data acquisition. Could you point me towards tutorials, examples, or best practices that address real-world sensor integration?
Deployment and Testing: Once I have the hardware and software components in place, I'd appreciate any pointers on practical considerations for deploying Autoware on the RC bot in a safe and controlled environment. Additionally, I'm eager to learn about recommended testing procedures to ensure the bot's functionality and safety before venturing into more complex scenarios.
I understand that the Autoware community is incredibly knowledgeable and supportive. I'm committed to diligently learning and contributing wherever possible. Any guidance or suggestions you can offer, even if it's directing me towards relevant resources or documentation, would be immensely helpful.
Thank you for your time and consideration. I eagerly await your insights and look forward to being a part of this vibrant robotics community.
Sincerely,
Devank
