SODA.Sim

SODA.Sim is designed for seamless software validation of any vehicle, covering the entire process from initial concept through certification to aftermarket updates.

By simulating vehicles at the level of atomic components, such as sensors, vehicle systems, and electronic control units SODA.Sim is not only a perfect tool for AD/ADAS development, but also a virtual proving ground for validation and certification of all vehicle functions.

SODA.Sim is empowered by SODA Validation Library. You can choose available tests or craft your bespoke scenarios in real-time. Be the first to access SODA Validation Library with a built-in AI scenario generator and AI scenario mixer.

Now we support UnrealEngine 5.4.

Install

This repository is plugin for UnrealEngine. You can clone this repo to the UnrealEngine's plugins folder or to the project plugins folders. Then you need to follow the next steps: Setup a New UProject

Note

  • The repose includes LFS files. Make sure you clone LFS files as well.

See more information about Working with Plugins in Unreal Engine.

Supported OS

  • Windows
  • Linux (not tested)

Ecosystem

Roadmap

  • Integration with Project Chrono for accurate vehicle physics simulation.
  • Analog/Digital Input/Output hardware interface. We have almost finished developing our own hardware, which will allow virtual Analog/Digital Input/Output to be mapped to real hardware for HIL purpose.
  • Realtime Python Scripts. Support Unreal Editor Python to work in game mode.
  • Simulink Model Importing. Ability to develop vehicle components using Simulinks and import them into the simulator.
  • LIN interfce support.
  • City Traffic Generation based on the Summo.
  • Support of the OpenScenario.
  • Distributed simulation. Horisontal parallelization of simulation on multiple computers to simulate more vehicle sensors.
