Adding the supported hardware list to Autoware documentation

[ghost]

Currently, Autoware's supported hardware list exists as a Google document in a shared folder. It would be better if this document was included in the Autoware documentation, but the question is where should it go?

• On the main Autoware documentation website
  • In a new Hardware section
  • In an existing section
• On the Open AD Kit documentation
• Somewhere else

@mitsudome-r Have you had any time to consider this proposal and the best place for the supported hardware list? @kenji-miyake If you have any views/feedback on this, then please do let us know!

@LalithVipulananthan What did you mean by the word the supported hardware? The things like reference configuration? If so, it should be in the Open AD Kit documentation.

If you mean general requirements, it can be in the Autoware documentation, but I believe it's already written, so I guess you didn't mean them.

Currently, Autoware's supported hardware list exists as a Google document in a shared folder.

Would it be possible for you to summarize the contents and write them in this discussion page?

@kenji-miyake I think he is talking about this list: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Q2hRkJ1y_smtogIYb0sQdOyot-01UpZV3DlGyGU1-Gs/edit. It was originally created in the hardware WG and meant to collect sensors/devices + it's drivers that can be used with Autoware, whereas reference configuration would be a recommended combination of the hardware that is listed here.
(@armaganarsln correct me if I'm wrong)

@LalithVipulananthan Maybe we can create a supported hardware page and reference configuration page under system configuration tab in the Open AD Kit documentation.

@kenji-miyake if you don't think it's unrelated or out-of-scope we will be happy if we could combine all documentation including open AD Kit and supported hardware in the autoware main documentation page. as 2 new tabs after the support page. If not i will add under open ad kit system configuration as @mitsudome-r suggested.

@armaganarsln Thank you for your suggestion! It could be combined in the future, but I personally think it's good to start with linking two documentation sites.
It's because the two sites have different owners.
