ZalaZONE Automotive Proving Ground Hill Tracks

Climbs with varying gradients 3D environment

Since R2024b

Description

The ZalaZONE Automotive Proving Ground Hill Tracks scene is a 3D environment of the Hill Tracks module from the ZalaZONE Automotive Proving Grounds. This environment provides five different climbs with gradients varying between 5% and 30%, with an additional separated return route. This scene is intended for validation simulation of maneuvers under difficult conditions such as starting or stopping on slopes or ascents with different speeds, accelerating, or decelerating.

Setup

To simulate a driving maneuver in this scene:

To install the ZalaZONE Automotive Proving Ground Hill Tracks scene, run this command.
```
sim3d.utils.installUnrealEngineScene('ZalaZONE Hill Tracks')
```
To confirm your scene selection, click Next.
To install the scene, click Install. MATLAB^® shuts down, and a window displays the download progress. Once the download is complete, MATLAB restarts.
In Simulink^®, add a Simulation 3D Scene Configuration block to your Simulink model.
In this block, set the Scene source parameter to Default Scenes.
Set the Scene name parameter to ZalaZONE Hill Tracks.

Coordinate System

The road geometry is represented according to the WGS84 coordinate system. The starting point of the project is recorded in 46.8795303682 latitude, 16.8254638824 longitude coordinates. The position and location of the objects in the program are given relative to (X,Y,Z [m]; fi,omega,kappa[deg]). The point clouds used to build the model are available in the UTM projection from, BME Automated Drive.

Tips

If you have the Vehicle Dynamics Blockset™ Interface for Unreal Engine^® Projects support package, then you can modify this scene. Enable the MathWorksAutomotiveContent plugin to use the scene in Unreal Engine projects. The scene name in the plugin is ZalaZONEHillTracks.
