For a period of 3 weeks in June 2021, we embedded a social robot (Softbank Pepper) in a Special Educational Needs (SEN) school for autistic children. The robot’s behaviours and integration into the school were co-designed with the children and teache...

On determinism of game engines used for simulation-based autonomous vehicle verification (2022)
Journal Article
Chance, G., Ghobrial, A., McAreavey, K., Lemaignan, S., Pipe, T., & Eder, K. (2022). On determinism of game engines used for simulation-based autonomous vehicle verification. IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems, 23(11), 1-15. https://doi.org/10.1109/TITS.2022.3177887

Game engines are increasingly used as simulation platforms by the autonomous vehicle community to develop vehicle control systems and test environments. A key requirement for simulation-based development and verification is determinism, since a deter...
