Lightweight Embedded Assisted Driving System
Project description
LEADS: Lightweight Embedded Assisted Driving System
LEADS is a system designed for VeC.
LEADS only supports two drive-wheel configurations: single rear wheel (SRW) mode and dual rear wheel (DRW) mode.
Python is generally not the best choice for writing embedded systems. We made this decision for the following reasons.
- Data analysis
- Short development cycle
- Official support for Raspberry Pi
- Low difficulty in getting started for team members
This project aims to implement the following functions:
- A basic instrumentation system
- A basic communication system
- A basic control system
- A data recording system with the following components
- A speed recording system
- A G force recording system
- A GPS recording system
- A battery voltage recording system
- A control system with the following components
- DTCS (Dynamic Traction Control System)
- ABS (Anti-lock Braking System)
- EBI (Emergency Braking Intervention)
- ATBS (Automatic Trail Braking System)
Installation
Note that LEADS requires Python >= 3.11.
pip install pysimplegui keyboard pyserial leads
numpy
will be automatically installed with leads
.
pysimplegui
, keyboard
, and pyserial
are optional.
If you need only the skeleton, run the following.
pip install leads
Quickstart
Main
python -m leads_vec
Optional Arguments
Configuration File
python -m leads_vec -c path/to/the/config/file
If not specified, all configurations will be default values.
To learn about the configuration file, read Configurations.
