Autonomous driving agents

[nikolatopic131]

Hello. I'm working on my masters' thesis which focuses on evaluating the influence of autonomous vehicles on traffic flow. I intend to analyze this using carla-sumo co-simulation. I've prepared my maps which I will use, and am now on the step of implementing autonomous vehicles into the simulation. I've went over the code of the basic_agent and behavior_agent scripts provided by carla. However, as far as I'm aware these agents don't use sensors, as in, they don't rely on sensor data inputs to make their decisions, and I would like to have an agent which does so, in order to "justify" using a 3d simulation environment over the classic microscopic sumo simulation. Due to the fact that I'm a traffic engineer and not a software developer, and given that submitting the thesis has its deadlines, I'm not able to develop my own agents. For these reasons I wanted to ask if anyone knows are there any open-source autonomous driving agents which can be attached to carla vehicles that rely on sensor inputs and make decisions according to them (akin to real-world autonomous vehicles), or if it is possible to modify the carla given agents to work in that way?
