Cover Story: Transportation is a vital part of our daily lives. Many eagerly anticipate the arrival of level 5 autonomous driving, where passengers can simply relax and enjoy the ride. While this once seemed like a distant dream, recent advancements in AI have shown that self-driving vehicles are becoming a reality. However, significant challenges remain. Sensor selection is still debated, and data acquisition still proves challenging. A lack of diverse and high-quality data can create weaknesses in AI models, potentially leading to accidents. To alleviate this problem, we present a GPU-accelerated simulator that generates high-quality, annotated data for time-of-flight sensors, such as LiDAR. The generated data allow the training of more robust AI models in traffic scenarios, bringing us one step closer to the dream of fully autonomous driving. View this paper
