OpenAdx "Autonomous Driving Simulation" Testbed – hardware in the loop
summary
OpenADx testbed integrates Renesas R-Car hardware into simulation using CARLA and AirSim (Unreal Engine) and connects components with ROS2 over DDS. A hardware‑in‑the‑loop demo streams 0.5 MP images over GigE, hits roughly 15 FPS, shows stereo depth and motion‑vector IP running on the R‑Car, and outputs results via HDMI. Uncompressed loopback latency is ~40 ms, compression drops it to ~4–10 ms; simulator GPU rendering and DDS multicast/firewall issues are the main scaling bottlenecks.
