The Chrono distribution contains several demos for modeling and simulating sensors for robots and autonomous vehicles with the SENSOR module.

Chrono::Sensor provides support for Camera, Lidar, GPS, and IMU. These are parameterized models of sensors commonly used in robotic and autonomous vehicle systems.

In addition to the main library, the SENSOR module also creates a library of pre-defined SENSOR models which currently contains:

Camera Sensor
Lidar Sensor
- Velodyne VLP-16 (Puck)
- Velodyne HDL-32E
GPS Sensor
IMU Sensor

Selected sensor demos:

Basic Sensor Demos

- demo_SEN_Lidar - example lidar sensor with custom filters
- demo_SEN_GPSIMU - example using a GPS and IMU on a pendulum
- demo_SEN_JSON - example use of sensors through JSON interface
Vehicle and Sensors (require Chrono::Vehicle and Chrono::Irrlicht)
- demo_SEN_Gator - example vehicle equipped with sensors
- demo_SEN_HMMWV - example HMMWV equipped with sensors
- demo_SEN_rccar - another example vehicle with sensors
- demo_SEN_deformableSoil - example sensing on deformable terrain
Sensors with TensorRT (requies USE_TENSOR_RT=ON in cmake)
- demo_SEN_NNCamera - example for using a camera with a filter based on a neural net with inference through TensorRT
