WeGo-ERP42

There is much interest in control technology for self-driving robots; that is why the International Student Car Competition that is held every year is being held this year in K-City, Hwasung. ERP42 is being used as a standard platform required for this competition. The same is applicable overseas. Please direct any inquiries if there is any.

Using the WeGo- ERP42 platform, various research, practical training, and learning can be performed. LiDAR, radar, cameras, GPS, and other sensors can be connected to a (embedded) controller and link it to the lower driving part controller to success fully control a basic self-driving robot.

A remote controller is also provided, and the platform size is (L×W×H:  1,600×1,160×550 mm). Various sensors can be mounted additionally to apply the product to vari ous different patterns of practical training and research. We also sell simulation software for the product, as simulation is an essential part of self-driving. Depending on the use, there are academic (Base, Full Version) and research (Professional, Developer Suite) versions available.

The driving simulation has vehicles, driving environments, sensors, etc. modeled in a virtual environment, allowing for the development of a self-driving vehicle in said environments. The simulator outputs actual vehicle and sensor data and takes speed and steering commands, safely allowing control of a vehicle . The data produced are similar to actual results.
A virtual car model identical in size and shape to ERP-42 and with similar dynamics provides the same serial communication protocol.

How to operate the WeGo-ERP42

Self-driving package AGV+ Sensors+ Simulation software

Self-driving simulation software

  • The simulator outputs vehicle data and sensor data, and takes speed and steering commands to move the car.
  • The simulator’s output is identical to sensor protocols that are actually used.(Velodyne, GPS nmea, Camera etc.)
  • HILS function: simulation function includes hardware (vehicle, controller). Communication between self-driving software and the simulator can be performed via serial or UDP.
  • A virtual car model identical in size and shape to ERP-42 and with similar dynamics is provided. The same serial communication protocol is provided.
  • UDP provided for virtual car control
    (Protocol exclusive to the simulation, and serial option are also available)

A vehicle the size of an ERP42 can be synced with the ERP42 simulation, and the pure pursuit algorithm and obstacle avoidance algorithm can be used to simulate self-driving.
An emergency braking system using actual sensors (LiDAR) is also included. Simulation is performed using actual data from LiDAR and cameras.

Functions and characteristics

  • Path navigation can be generated within the simulation, and the vehicle drives by the GPS (X,Y) value of the generated path.
  • The vehicle and sensor information output by the simulation is used to control the simulated vehicle and the actual vehicle.
  • Simulated and actual cars can be controlled using actual sensor and vehicle data.
  • The sensor data types offered by the simulation are GPS, Lidar, and cameras; traffic light data can also be input
