CARLA Simulator
|
||
===============
|
||
|
||
CARLA is an open-source simulator for autonomous driving research. CARLA has
|
||
been developed from the ground up to support development, training, and
|
||
validation of autonomous urban driving systems. In addition to open-source code
|
||
and protocols, CARLA provides open digital assets (urban layouts, buildings,
|
||
vehicles) that were created for this purpose and can be used freely. The
|
||
simulation platform supports flexible specification of sensor suites and
|
||
environmental conditions.

Roadmap
|
||
-------
|
||
|
||
We are continuously working on improving CARLA, and we appreciate contributions
|
||
from the community. Our most immediate goals are:
|
||
|
||
- Releasing the methods evaluated in the CARLA paper
|
||
- Adding a LiDAR sensor
|
||
- Allowing for flexible and user-friendly import and editing of maps
|
||
- Allowing the users to control non-player characters (and therefore set up user-specified scenarios)
|
||
|
||
We will post a detailed roadmap and contribution guidelines soon - stay tuned!

Building CARLA
|
||
--------------
|
||
|
||
Use `git clone` or download the project from this page. Note that the master
|
||
branch contains the latest fixes and features, for the latest stable code may be
|
||
best to switch to the `stable` branch.
|
||
|
||
Then follow the instruction at [How to build on Linux][buildlink].
|
||
|
||
Unfortunately we don't have yet official instructions to build on other
|
||
platforms, please check the progress for [Windows][issue21] and [Mac][issue150].
