The Computer Vision Center (Barcelona, Spain)
and the Intel Visual Computing Lab (Santa Clara, California) have joined
forces to create a new videogame-like simulator for autonomous driving
research. Overall, the simulator aims at democratizing and standardizing
the development of AI agents for autonomous driving; thus, we do not
have a commercial purpose, and we are working under the open-source
paradigm (for code and assets).
The 1st phase of the project has
been completed and open-sourced to the international community. The
simulator is called CARLA and has been developed under the Unreal Engine
(UE4) framework. You can check details of CARLA through the Carla.org
web page. Since the project has attracted a high attention from both
academia and industry, we are facing a 2nd phase focusing on improving
current functionalities and adding completely new ones.
