Autonomous Navigation for Highway Driving: Design and Simulate Lane Change Maneuver System

Overview

Learn how to develop an automated lane change maneuver (LCM) system for highway driving scenario using Automated Driving Toolbox and Navigation Toolbox. An automated lane change maneuver system enables a self-driving vehicle to automatically move from one lane to another lane. This webinar shows how to design and test the path planning and control components of an LCM system.

Highlights

This webinar includes how to design and integrate the following subsystems used in automated lane change maneuver:

• Vehicle dynamics
• Sensors and simulation environment
• Path planning algorithm design
• Lane change controller design
• System behavior simulation and visualization
