Velocity & Steering Control for a Self Driving Car

Overview

Design longitudinal (velocity) and lateral (steering) controller for a car to operate autonomously. Simulation done in Carla Simulator. Reference velocity and waypoints are given for a race track.

Dependencies

• Python 3.6
• Carla Simulator
• matplotlib 2.2

Implementation

• Implemented PID controller for the velocity control.

• Implemented Stanley Controller for the steering control. Stanley Controller is based on Bicycle Model.

Output

• Trajectory Control as compared to ground truth.

• Speed as compared to ground truth
