Navigation in Fahrzeugsimulation

A navigation system for the AirSim vehicle simulator has been developed to compute the shortest route between two points while staying on road surfaces. Road areas are identified by a YOLOv8 neural network trained on a custom dataset of aerial images, and the resulting segmentation is converted into a weighted graph of street centerlines. Dijkstra’s algorithm is then applied to this graph to determine and visualize the optimal path.
