The “OpenSimDrive” project is a comprehensive investigation into open source car simulators, aiming to identify a suitable candidate for extracting dynamic models. The project further involves utilizing this model to predict linear and angular acceleration and subsequently validating its accuracy by comparing the outputs with the simulator. Additionally, a crucial aspect of the project is the integration of the validated model into a sensor fusion framework, enhancing the estimated position. The project ends with using the dynamic models as additional measurement in sensor fusion to reduce the drift during GNSS denied conditions.
