Ambr(OSI)al Features!

Purpose

This minor release contains a number of incremental enhancements and improvements:

  • Sub-bounding boxes can be provided for ground truth objects to model e.g. concave non-rectangular objects in more realistic ways without resorting to full 3D models.
  • Logical lanes can contain effective speed limit information to avoid the need to process traffic signs for speed selection.
  • Routing information can be transmitted as part of HostVehicleData.
  • Orientation rates can be transmitted as part of pedestrian skeleton information.
  • A virtual detection area can be supplied in SensorData to visualize or indicate the currently active nominal detection area of a sensor.
  • The system time of a source of SensorData can be supplied in addition to the simulation measurement timestamp to aid timing simulation and measurement use cases.
  • An offset has been introduced that is to be added to the cartesian global ground truth coordinate system prior to mapping into a geodetic coordinate system with the proj.4 string. This harmonizes OSI with OpenDRIVE and allows the easier provision of false easting/northing in the coordinate transformation.
  • The set of car types has been reduced to better harmonize with other OpenX standards as part of overall harmonization efforts.

Beyond that, many clarifications, improvements in definitions and documentation, enhanced installation information and enhanced Python support, including provisioning of Python packages on PyPI are key improvements in this release.

L(OSI)ng is not an option!

This is an official ASAM release of OSI. The standard can also be downloaded on the ASAM website.

Purpose

In this minor release, several interface messages have been updated and extended to better ensure consistency within the standard itself and harmonization with other OpenX-Standards like ASAM OpenDRIVE or ASAM OpenScenario.
In this context the extension of GroundTruth by logical lane information - to empower a better traffic participant modelling - was one of the key achievements for this release.

Content/Changes

  • Added logical lane information (including st-representation) for traffic participant usage.
  • Added route message TrafficCommandUpdate to offer a backchannel for (un)executed TrafficCommands.
  • Extended EnvironmentalConditions regarding sun, wind and cloud state.
  • Added dash property to boundary points.
  • Extended HostVehicleData by automated driving function states and operating states.
  • Added friction coefficient to moving object.
  • Improved description of trucks in VehicleClassification.
  • Added Role to VehicleClassification.
  • Concretized LaneBoundary modelling.
  • Removed protobuf version recommendation.
  • CMake: Project usable via FetchContent.
  • Doxygen: Improved output.
  • CI: Moved to current protobuf release.
  • Updated documentation of coordinate systems and their transformations.

Speak p(OSI)tive!

This is an official ASAM release of OSI. The standard can also be downloaded on the ASAM website.

Purpose

In this minor release, several interface messages have been updated and extended to better ensure consistency within the standard itself and harmonization with other OpenX-Standards like ASAM OpenDRIVE.
Moreover, this release provides a first glance on the on-going efforts for OSI's documentation improvements and migration to AsciiDoc.

Content/Changes

Documentation Updates:

  • Updated the documentation's structure and migrated it to AsciiDoc.
  • Updated the description of OSI's top level messages.
  • Updates on additional descriptions, like those for trace file formats, naming conventions and installation instructions for Linux/Windows.

Technical Updates:

  • Extended SensorViewConfiguration message to allow the consumer to choose to not include static content in the SensorView ground truth information.
  • Updated StationaryObject classification enums to avoid "pylon" duplication.
  • Extended StationaryObject classification message to include speed bumps.
  • Extended StationaryObject to include emitting structures of electromagnetic waves (for example this can be used to define a streetlamp).
  • Extended the TrafficSign classification message, by adding attributes country, country_revision, code and sub_code, to better support internationalization and to align with ASAM OpenDRIVE.
  • Updated the color coding message description to better align with ASAM OpenDRIVE.
  • Update the color coding message description to include Grey, RGB, RGBIR, HSV, LUV and thus align with ISO-23150.
  • Added an enum for dashed lane boundaries to disambiguate start and end of those.
  • Extended HostVehcileData with more comprehensive on-board information, and promoted the message to a top-level message for exchange between simulation environments and (external) dynamic models.
  • Extended LidarDetection message under feature data to include echo pulse width information to better support several sensor outputs that are currently on the market.
  • Extended OSI to include a generic external reference message to enable traceability for data from other standards, including other ASAM OpenX standards.
  • Added support for using OSI with Flatbuffers encoding for OSI messages instead of ProtoBuffers, in preparation for a potential switch of default encoding in a future major release.
  • Extended LaneBoundary message to include additional types, to better align with ASAM OpenDRIVE.

Stay p(OSI)tive!

This is an official ASAM release of OSI. The standard can also be downloaded on the ASAM website.

Purpose

As a part of the increasing adoption of OSI in the industry, and its movement to ASAM as its home, several new use cases and extensions for OSI have been identified. This minor release highlights the work that has been done on several working packages including the introduction of brand new top level messages which extend OSI's scope beyond the specialized world of sensor modeling.

Content/Changes

  • Introduced the TrafficCommand top-level message which enables event-based control of traffic participant models, e.g. with regard to a scenario specification.

  • Introduced the TrafficUpdate top-level message to send updated properties of traffic participant models.

  • Add new LogicalDetectionData message to SensorData, which provides detection data with respect to the reference frame of the logical/virtual sensor.

  • Added a new submessage to further specify wheel data.

  • Added a new field to support future trajectories of moving objects.

  • Added a new subtype message to osi_lane to better align with OpenDrive's lane type information and enable traffic participant models to identify lanes on which they are supposed to move.

  • Extended traffic lights and signs messages to include the model_references attribute that can be used to point out to a 3D-model.

  • Add global model reference to ground truth that can be used to specify the 3D model representing the environment.

  • Extended the camera sensor view configuration to better support the configuration of the simulation environment.

  • Added a new field to describe the position of the steering wheel.

  • Added a message MovingObjectClassification for classify-able attributes that are shared between different moving object types. Introduced the assigned lane id and the assigned lane percentage of a moving object there.

  • Updated to checklist for pull requests to provide clearer orientation for all users.

  • Updated the documentation of centerline and lane boundaries (ordering of the points, describing those lines).

  • Updated the documentation of 3D bounding boxes.

  • Update the documentation of ground clearance.

  • Make handling of enums in rules check more robust, especially ones.

  • Set the default compiler to C++ 11 to support protobuf>3.6.
