Hey,
I have a can-based radar, is it posible to use it with DriveWorks?
Do I have to implement a custom radar plugin with Comprehensive Sensor Plugin Framework, or is this Framework only for ethernet-based radar?

Can you provide a template radar implementation or can you say what I have to implement?

Best regards.

Dear @eunow ,
Could you check if your Radar is in natively supported list given at DRIVE Ecosystem - Hardware and Software | NVIDIA Developer.
For custom plugin implementation, can you check DriveWorks SDK Reference: Custom Radars (Comprehensive) to know list of APIs to be implemented.

Thank you for your reply. My Sensor is not supported out of the box.
I’ve read the documentation and have some questions:

  1. Which functions do I have to implement in which order?
  2. Do I have to implement the DriveWorks User API or Plugin API?
  3. Is a Template available?
  4. Do I have to implement function defined in Common Interface or Radar Plugin? Or both?

Then i found the file “CUSTOM LIDAR/RADAR INTEGRATION WITH DRIVEWORKS SDK” there is an Example code file SAL_Radar_plugin_template.c: and a Example header file SAL_Radar_plugin_template.h. Can I use them or are they only for the ip protool? And do they differ from the documenation Custom Radars (comprehensive)?
