ZalaZONE Automotive Proving Ground High-Speed Handling Course

High-speed handling course 3D environment

Since R2024b

Description

The ZalaZONE Automotive Proving Ground High-Speed Handling Course scene is a 3D environment of the High-speed Handling module from the ZalaZONE Automotive Proving Grounds. This environment has a length of 2000 m and a width of 12 m. The course is intended for validation simulation of maneuvers which permit steering, damping, braking, and acceleration performance. The course includes:

• A delta point for reverse direction testing

• Separate entrance and exit points for passenger and commercial vehicles

• An observation area

• A straight road section close to 450 m long

Setup

To simulate a driving maneuver in this scene:

1. To install the ZalaZONE Automotive Proving Ground High-Speed Handling Course scene, run this command.

   sim3d.utils.installUnrealEngineScene('ZalaZONE High-speed Handling Course')

2. To confirm your scene selection, click Next.

3. To install the scene, click Install. MATLAB^® shuts down, and a window displays the download progress. Once the download is complete, MATLAB restarts.

4. In Simulink^®, add a Simulation 3D Scene Configuration block to your Simulink model.

5. In this block, set the Scene source parameter to Default Scenes.

6. Set the Scene name parameter to ZalaZONE High-speed Handling Course.

Coordinate System

The road geometry is represented according to the WGS84 coordinate system. The starting point of the project is recorded in 46.8795303682 latitude, 16.8254638824 longitude coordinates. The position and location of the objects in the program are given relative to (X,Y,Z [m]; fi,omega,kappa[deg]). The point clouds used to build the model are available in the UTM projection from, BME Automated Drive.

Tips

• If you have the Vehicle Dynamics Blockset™ Interface for Unreal Engine^® Projects support package, then you can modify this scene. Enable the MathWorksAutomotiveContent plugin to use the scene in Unreal Engine projects. The scene name in the plugin is ZalaZONEHighSpeed.
