Catvehicle - A ROS package for autonomous vehicle applications

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jmscslgroup/catvehicle/melodic_gazebo-9/docs/source/favicon.png

CAT Vehicle Testbed provides a ROS package catvehicle that a ROS based simulator to facilitate the development of autonomous vehicle applications. This repository houses the files that utilize the Gazebo simulator, and additional interfaces to the physical CAT Vehicle Testbed available at the University of Arizona - Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering.

The testbed includes a simulated physics-based model of the autonomous vehicle that mimics a real world vehicle capable of driving autonomously. In addition to that, simulator provides support to spawn multiple autonomous vehicle in simulation that facilitates the development of application requiring multi-vehicle scenario.
