Autoware.ai

This is a fork of Autoware containing modifications to support usage with the CARMAPlatform. This repository contains changes to the Autoware source code and configuration that may not be supported by the Autoware Foundation and may not be consistent with the original design intent of Autoware. All modifications in this repository are licensed under the same Apache License 2.0 as Autoware and all modifications of the source code made will be marked as such in accordance with the terms of the Apache License 2.0. For a list of modifications and their descriptions please see NOTICE.md.

The next several sections of this readme provide standard information on how this repo relates to the rest of the CARMA project. Below that is the full content of the readme from the master Autoware repo.

For developers working in this repository:

For any modified file please follow these steps to ensure proper documentation of this modification in compliance with the terms of the Apache License 2.0:

  1. Add a comment at the top of any modified file with a high-level description of the modification and date the modification was made.
  2. Add a high-level description and date of the overall modification to the NOTICE.md file.

Repository Structure

This repository consists of multiple git subtrees to combine the multi-repo structure used by Autoware into a single structure for CARMA. For more information on working with subtrees see the SUBTREES.md file.

NOTICE: When working with subtrees please ensure that individual commits only change files in ONE-AND-ONLY-ONE subtree.

If your branch must change multiple subtrees please make those changes in separate commits. Do not squash commits that change multiple subtrees, even when merging via Github.

Autoware

Autoware

Autoware is the world's first "all-in-one" open-source software for self-driving vehicles. The capabilities of Autoware are primarily well-suited for urban cities, but highways, freeways, mesomountaineous regions, and geofenced areas can be also covered. The code base of Autoware is protected by the Apache 2 License. Please use it at your own discretion. For safe use, we provide a ROSBAG-based simulation environment for those who do not own real autonomous vehicles. If you plan to use Autoware with real autonomous vehicles, please formulate safety measures and assessment of risk before field testing.

You may refer to Autoware Wiki for Users Guide and Developers Guide.

Cloud Services

Autoware Online

You may test Autoware at Autoware Online. No need to install the Autoware repository to your local environment.

Automan

You may annotate and train your ROSBAG data using your web browser through Automan. The trained models can be used for deep neural network algorithms in Autoware, such as SSD and Yolo.

ROSBAG STORE

You may download a number of test and simulation data sets from Tier IV's ROSBAG STORE. Note that free accounts would not allow you to access image data due to privacy matters.

Map Tools

You may create 3D map data through Tier IV's Map Tools. The 3D map data used in Autoware are composed of point cloud structure data and vector feature data.
