CARMA Simulation 1.0.0

CARMA Simulation Release Notes

August 10th, 2022 - Version 1.0.0

Release version 1.0.0 of CARMA Simulation products. Initital release intended
to deliver minimum-viable-proudct integration of several major simulation
components: CARMA Platform, MOSAIC, SUMO, CARLA.

CARMA Simulation 1.0.0

Initial full release. Minimum viable product version of CARMA Simulation to act as a base for additional feature development and to allow prospective users to begin integration and early use of tool.

Features:

• Incorporate Eclipse MOSAIC Co-simulation framework including MOSAIC Runtime
  Infrastructure (RTI), SUMO, and NS-3.
• Integrate CARLA with MOSAIC RTI.
  • Vehicle synchronization between CARLA and SUMO
  • Traffic signal synchronization between CARLA and SUMO
  • Simulation map synchronization between CARLA and SUMO
• Dockerized setup of MOSAIC and simulators including CARLA
• Configure data output and logging to record data for verifying synchronization
• Integrate new Turner-Fairbank Highway Research Center simulation map with SUMO
  and CARLA
• Develop initial build and deployment documentation for CARMA Simulation 1.0.0

Fixes:

• Resolve MOSAIC RTI priority queue conflicts which caused simulation deadlock

CARMA-CARLA Integration 1.0.0

Initial full release. Minimum viable product version of CARMA-CARLA Integration packages to act as a base for additional feature development and to allow prospective users to begin integration and early use of tool.

Features:

• Support for registration of CARMA Platform vehicles with CARLA ego-vehicle
  roles
• Integration of CARMA Platform controller plugins with CARLA control inputs
  via Ackermann Control node
• Integration of CARMA Platform localization with "ground truth" position of
  vehicle in CARLA
• Integration of CARMA Platform perception with "ground truth" object list of
  neighboring vehicles and obstacles
• Dockerized setup of CARMA Platform integration nodes

Fixes:

• Resolve data rate consistency issues with CARMA-CARLA bridge
