Pseudo code with arbitrary values of a Simple Bicycle Model given steering change. The x-axis points to the forward direction or the longitudinal direction The y-axis, which represents the lateral direction is positive when it points to the right of the driver The z-axis points to the ground satisfying theContinue Reading

Frenet coordinates are an alternative way to describe a curve in 2D space, this most commonly can be useful while computing displacement of a vehicle’s position on the road or a calculating it’s reference path. The Frenet coordinates is composed of two coordinates. s coordinate – representing distance along theContinue Reading
