CARLA Simulator

Build Status Documentation

carla.org download documentation forum discord

CARLA is an open-source simulator for autonomous driving research. CARLA has been developed from the ground up to support development, training, and validation of autonomous driving systems. In addition to open-source code and protocols, CARLA provides open digital assets (urban layouts, buildings, vehicles) that were created for this purpose and can be used freely. The simulation platform supports flexible specification of sensor suites and environmental conditions.

Building CARLA

Use git clone or download the project from this page. Note that the master branch contains the most recent release of CARLA with the latest fixes and features.

Then follow the instruction at How to build on Linux or How to build on Windows.
The Linux build needs for an UE patch to solve some visualization issues regarding Vulkan. Those already working with a Linux build should install the patch and make the UE build again using the following commands.

# Download and install the UE patch  
cd ~/UnrealEngine_4.24
wget https://carla-releases.s3.eu-west-3.amazonaws.com/Linux/UE_Patch/430667-13636743-patch.txt ~/430667-13636743-patch.txt
patch --strip=4 < ~/430667-13636743-patch.txt
# Build UE
./Setup.sh && ./GenerateProjectFiles.sh && make

Unfortunately we don't have official instructions to build on Mac yet, please check the progress at issue #150.

CARLA Talks

The team creates some additional content for users, besides the docs. This is a great way to cover different subjects such as detailed explanations for a specific module, latest improvements in a feature, future work and much more.

CARLA Talks 2020 (May):

  • General
  • Modules
  • Features
    • Co-Simulations with SUMO and PTV-Vissim — video | slides
    • Integration of RSS-lib — slides
    • The External Sensor Interface (ESI) — video | slides
    • The OpenDRIVE Standalone Mode — video | slides
