[mslavescu]

In this demo we showcase how to run 4 cars in 4 instances of the OSSDC SIM autonomous racing simulator (see details below of each configuration of each instance) where each car is autonomously driven by an AutowareAuto instance.

Here is the demo video for this showcase:

On the left side in the OSSDC Race Control Center you can see the cars' real-time positions on the track and their respective metrics.

The best laptime is counted only after 2 full laps have been completed.

The configuration of the machines demoed in the video are as follow (from top left to bottom right)

• Top Left - Dark Hero Desktop: AMD Ryzen 9 5950x, Nvidia RTX 3090 24GB VRAM, 64 GB RAM, Windows 10 - Average FPS: 400
• Top Right - Focus Laptop: Intel i7 10870H, Nvidia RTX 3080 16GB VRAM Mobile, 32 GB RAM, Ubuntu 20.04 - Average FPS: 150
• Bottom Left - Andre Desktop: AMD Ryzen 7 2700, Nvidia RTX 3080 TI 12GB VRAM, 32 GB RAM, Windows 11 - Average FPS: 250
• Bottom Right - Irene Laptop: Intel i7 11800H, Nvidia RTX 3070 8GB VRAM Mobile, 16 GB RAM, Windows 10 - Average FPS: 150

AutowareAuto was running in 4 instances of ADE on the Focus Laptop.
In the bottom left corner you can see the dstat view showing the CPU and network traffic to the ADE docker instances.
