Track Model Instead of Driver Inputs

[Michael]

Is it a possibility to create a track/path for a vehicle to follow instead of having to create driver inputs for a vehicle model in Chrono? 

[Radu Serban]

Yes. Look for example at demo_VEH_Controller or demo_VEH_Controller_DLC. 

Chrono::Vehicle includes a lateral controller for path following.  The path is provided as a Bezier curve and a simple PID controller is used to set steering inputs. This is typically used in conjunction with some longitudinal controller (e.g., a cruise control to maintain constant speed).
