BeamNG.tech NCAP Tests

Introduction

This project implements some of the Euro NCAP testing scenarios for automated vehicle systems in BeamNG.tech using the official BeamNG Python API. Currently, only a handful of scenarios are implemented, but more will be added in the future.

Usage Example

After installing the library, the scenarios become available in the beamng_ncap.scenarios module. They can be executed as such:

from beamngpy import BeamNGpy
from beamng_ncap.scenarios import CCRS, generate_scenario

beamng = BeamNGpy('localhost', 25252, home='/path/to/bng/tech', user='/path/to/bng/tech/userfolder')
with beamng as bng:
    scenario = generate_scenario('etk800', 'etk800')
    scenario.make(bng)
    bng.set_deterministic()
    bng.set_steps_per_second(100)
    bng.load_scenario(scenario)
    bng.pause()
    bng.start_scenario()

    overlap = 100  # -75, -50, 50, 75 or 100 %
    vut_speed = 45  # 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45 or 50 km/h
    test = CCRS(bng, vut_speed, overlap)
    # Add custom sensors here (electrics, damage & timer are already attached)
    # test.vut.attach_sensor(...)
    sensors = test.load()
    input('Press enter when done...')

The NCAP scenarios are implemented to fit into user-defined vehicle setups. As such you can define your own BeamNG.tech scenario to run the NCAP test in and attach your own senor models to the vehicle being tested.
