Abstract: A sensor simulation system may generate sensor data for use in simulations by rendering two-dimensional views of a three-dimensional simulated environment. In various examples, the sensor simulation system uses sensor dependency data to determine specific views to be re-rendered at different times during the simulation. The sensor simulation system also may generate unified views with multi-sensor data at each region (e.g., pixel) of the two-dimensional view for consumption by different sensor types. A hybrid technique may be used in some implementations in which rasterization is used to generate a view, after which ray tracing is used to align the view with a particular sensor. Spatial and temporal upsampling techniques also may be used, including depth-aware and velocity-aware analyses for simulated objects, to improve view resolution and reduce the frequency of re-rendering views.

Abstract: In some implementations, a method includes obtaining a first mesh portion and a second mesh portion associated with a skeleton of an object. The first mesh portion and the second mesh portion meet at a skeletal joint that is located on the skeleton. It is detected that a combination of the first mesh portion and the second mesh portion satisfies a joint telemetry criterion. A deformation joint is associated with at least one of the first mesh portion or the second mesh portion. The deformation joint is positioned at a distance away from the skeleton. The deformation joint has a flexion that is a function of the first mesh portion, the second mesh portion and the joint telemetry criterion. A display of the object is modified after associating the deformation joint with the at least one of the first mesh portion or the second mesh portion.

Abstract: A driving simulation system may perform simulations using one or more of a virtual driving simulator or a log-based driving simulator. A log-based simulator may replay data from logs to test whether a control algorithm is successfully capable of navigating a scenario. However, when such log-based simulations are invalid (e.g., based on the results of the simulations or evaluations of conditions of the simulation), a virtual simulation may be generated for the vehicle control system during which new log data may be captured. Such a virtual simulation may comprise sensor simulations and more sophisticated object control for ensuring convergence to a scenario to be tested. The new log data may be used for additional log-based simulations, thereby improving the durability and flexibility for testing and/or validation, while reducing the computational overhead of driving simulation scenarios.
