PROFILE

Luis Poveda Cano

Over a two-month period, contributed to the carla-simulator/carla repository by developing and enhancing traffic simulation systems using C++ and Unreal Engine. Built a dynamic traffic light configuration system that imports custom signal logic and timing from JSON files, streamlining scenario development and testing through real-time visualization tools. Further work included integrating OpenDRIVE for improved map data association, implementing digital twin traffic lights with dynamic emissive updates, and refactoring code for greater reliability and maintainability. Focused on asset management, plugin development, and robust logging, these efforts improved the realism, configurability, and stability of urban traffic scenarios within the simulation environment.

October 2025: Key traffic-light and OpenDrive enhancements across the carla project, with focused reliability improvements in the Traffic Light system. Deliverables include: (1) Digital Twins: dynamic emissive updates for traffic lights to reflect Red/Yellow/Green states, enabling more realistic visualization; (2) OpenDrive integration and initialization improvements: cleaner parser and logs, plugin search enhancement, and lane-ID mapping to improve data association and initialization; (3) Codebase cleanup and reliability: removal of obsolete components (TriggerBoxActor), crash-prevention in Tick, and streamlined logging for maintainability and observability. Overall impact includes improved realism in urban traffic scenarios, reduced runtime noise and crashes, and easier maintenance of the traffic-light subsystem. Technologies demonstrated include C++, Unreal Engine/Unreal-like workflows, OpenDrive integration, Digital Twins patterns, and robust logging/diagnostics.

September 2025: Delivered a Dynamic Traffic Light Configuration System for CARLA (carla-simulator/carla) that enables loading and applying custom map logic for traffic signal timing and module data from a JSON file, coupled with a testing visualization workflow. Introduced a debug TriggerBoxActor to visualize and validate the feature in real time. This work enhances configurability, testing speed, and repeatability for scenario development, laying groundwork for broader automation and dynamic traffic scenarios. No critical bug fixes were recorded this month.
