DEVELOPMENT OF A VIRTUAL REALITY SIMULATOR FOR AN AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE

Florin COVACIU

Abstract


In this paper it is presented the development of a virtual reality simulator that is created for an autonomous vehicle. This vehicle has to go through a maze, being controlled by artificial intelligence algorithms. The autonomous vehicle can detect the walls of the labyrinth by means of three sensors that are attached to the front and side of it. The fuzzy system was chosen for the artificial intelligence algorithm, as input this system uses the three proximity sensors and, as outputs, the algorithm has the value of the angle at which the wheels rotate in front of the autonomous vehicle and the vehicle speed, which slows down near the maze walls.
