Adding New Vehicle

Firstly, set up the vehicle based on the tutorial from AWSIM ( Awsim Link )

  1. Create an empty object under the "sensorkit_base_link"" or any other object responsible for sensor data. Name the object "perception_sensor".

  1. Add "Detected Object Autoware" to the "perception_sensor".

  1. Under the "perception_sensor" object, you can add mock sensors in two ways::

    1. Create them from scratch based on our documentation link
    2. Use the prefabs inside the Assets\KashiwaPackage\Prefabs\Pseudo Sensors
  2. You must add a reference to your sensor in the list of sensors within the "Detected Objects Autoware" component.

  1. The Bus Transform must reference the base link of your car for autonomous data capturing to work correctly in the ROS world and for relative data to be captured precisely.

  2. You are also required to add a reference to your sensors in the scenario component as shown in the picture. Be careful when selecting the correct list; you must choose the appropriate list and drag and drop the sensor onto it.
