chrono::vehicle::ChHumanDriver Class Reference

Description

Closed-loop path-follower and speed maintaining driver model.

A driver model that combines a path steering controller and a speed controller. The controller adjusts the steering input to follow the prescribed path. The output also adjusts throttle and braking inputs in order to maintain a varying speed that depends on the curvature of the road.
