OpenSCENARIO 1.2.0 for drone use (forwarded question)

Question

  • A drone vehicle: yet, I added an element in the simple type “VehicleCategory” in the OpenSCENARIO.xsd file. I do not know if it can works this way. I planned to modify the Bounding Box to make it fly

  • An obstacle: I thought about to modify dimensions of a car to make it an obstacle for a drone but it seems not to be a long term solution. Is there a way to create a wall ?

  • Obstacle detection: I wanted my drone moving forward until it sees an obstacle maybe 1 meter ahead and then changing its direction. However, in examples I have seen in the USER GUIDE like the Overtaker.xosc or the TrafficJam.xosc, the DynamicsDimension is the time which means the car do the action after X seconds. I have seen that it can also be distance or rate but in any case this is about the vehicle reaction. Is it possible to create a way that the vehicle react to an obstacle and do the action after that ? If yes, do you have an idea how to proceed ?

  • Vertical movement: If my drone sees an obstacle, I want it to move in the vertical way. The DirectionalDimension in the xsd can be vertical but there is no VerticalAction in the complexType “PrivateAction”. My question is what should I modify in the xsd or maybe the catalog to have a verticalAction ?
