Automated Truck Mounted Attenuator (00-022) [supporting dataset]

Project Description: Can an Automated Truck Mounted Attenuator (ATMA) system and control concept be developed and demonstrated that makes it practical to remove the driver from the at-risk truck-mounted attenuator (TMA) vehicle in mobile and short duration work zone operations using a short following distance leader-follower control concept? Can an ATMA system be developed that allows a lead vehicle driver to perform their normal TMA operational tasks while monitoring and controlling the ATMA in the at risk TMA position in mobile work zone operations? Data Scope: The data contained within the files contain raw sensor data that is being aggregated to inform the autonomous system control. There are 4 runs that contain the information along the Smart Road Surface Street and Highway sections. Each run comprises a set of ROS topics that is in bag file form. Each bag file contains the following type of data: Lidar, Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU), Global Positioning System (GPS), and vehicle speed.
