High-Fidelity Simulation

Author scenes with realistic graphics, generate high-fidelity sensor data

In the Unreal Engine^® simulation environment, scenarios are rendered using the Unreal Engine from Epic Games^®, Use this environment to visualize scenarios using more realistic graphics; to generate high-fidelity camera and lidar sensor data; and to test perception-in-the-loop systems. This environment is available in Simulink^® and runs on Windows^® only.
