Cyclops, introduced in this paper, is an open research platform for everyone who wants to validate novel ideas and approaches in self-driving heavy-duty vehicle platooning. The platform consists of multiple 1/14 scale semi-trailer trucks equipped with associated computing, communication and control modules that enable self-driving on our scale proving ground. The perception system for each vehicle is composed of a lidar-based object tracking system and a lane detection/control system. The…
