Path Following
Enhancing driving robot performance with precise and accurate control
AB Dynamics’ Path Following module (an optional feature for robot users) is a major enhancement to the capabilities of our driving robots and ADAS platforms. Utilising the GNSS inertial navigation systems in our robot-driven vehicles and ADAS platforms, it guides them along a pre-defined path with exceptional accuracy and repeatability. With over 20 years of experience, the latest Path Following algorithm has been used for high-performance testing, including steady-state cornering, double lane-changes, complete laps of the Silverstone race circuit, and a high speed, high precision crash test for NASCAR.
Key features
AB Dynamics’ Path Following software uses feedback from GNSS inertial navigation systems to make real-time corrections to the vehicle or ADAS platform’s steering, precisely guiding it along a desired path, even at high speeds and high levels of lateral acceleration.
Can be used for short duration tests, such as the ISO lane-change, and for long tests such as multiple laps of a durability circuit
Offers significant improvements in vehicle testing accuracy and repeatability, leading in turn to cost and time saving
Lateral position accuracy up to 2 cm or better (in a straight line).
Can be used on any suitable test track without need for any modification to the track surface
Can be used safely and reliably at speeds of over 200km/h
Maintains stability through precision steering even in the event of over-steer
Multiple vehicles can be synchronised along complex paths using GNSS time
Software is available in modules, each tailored for a specific type of testing
Compatible with major IMU providers including OxTS, GeneSys and Racelogic
