QLabs Virtual QCar
High fidelity digital twin in an interactive driving world
The Quanser Virtual QCar is a fully instrumented, dynamically accurate digital twin of the Quanser QCar system. It behaves the same way as the physical hardware and can be measured and controlled using the Python, ROS, and MATLAB Simulink development environments.
With a reconfigurable and visually rich environment that mirrors the physical Self-Driving Car Studio, it can enrich your lectures, labs, research, and outreach activities. Beyond the classroom and research lab, the platform offers the capacity to give students skills-based learning experiences in a blended and/or hybrid configuration for distance and online courses.
