Groundtruth¶

The groundtruth as well as the rendering process are directly linked to your python road file. After the rendering process has finished the groundtruth is directly extracted from the road section classes.

$digraph { compound=true; rankdir=LR; { rank = same; Renderer } node []; subgraph cluster_road_file { label="Road file"; "Road sections"; } node []; subgraph cluster_groundtruth { label=Groundtruth; Services; } node [ shape=square ]; "Road sections" ->Renderer [label="1."]; "Road sections" -> Services [lhead=cluster_groundtruth][label="2."]; }$

The simulation.src.simulation_groundtruth.src.groundtruth.node provides a number of ROS services through which the groundtruth can be accessed by other ROS nodes. Given a specific request, the groundtruth responds with ROS messages. E.g. given a section id, return all obstacles.

$digraph GroundtruthNode { rankdir="LR"; node []; groundtruth [style=dotted]; groundtruth_node; node [shape=box]; section_service; lane_service; other_services [label="..."]; node [shape=ellipse, style=dotted]; other_node; another_node; groundtruth -> groundtruth_node [style=dotted]; groundtruth_node -> groundtruth [style=dotted]; groundtruth_node -> section_service; groundtruth_node -> lane_service; groundtruth_node -> other_services; edge [style=dotted,dir=both]; section_service -> other_node; lane_service -> other_node; lane_service -> another_node; other_services -> another_node; subgraph services { rank="same" section_service lane_service other_services } }$

Example¶

straight_road_obs = StraightRoad(length=2)
straight_road_obs.add_obstacle(arc_length=1, y_offset=0, width=0.2, length=0.1)
