Using Unreal Engine as an engineering tool for traffic simulation and analysis

Abstract

This project studies the aggravating problem of road traffic and congestion, and some of its solutions: autonomous cars and traffic simulation software. Unreal Engine is presented as a new option for simulating a traffic environment. An application is programmed that allows the user to create and edit roadtracks by clicking and dragging in the editor, along with autonomous vehicle models to populate them with. The simulator is tested using different scenarios and obtaining relevant data. Finally, the obtained conclusions are mentioned, along with ideas and guidelines for future developmen
