AnteMotion is developing a proprietary 3D automatic and procedural generation pipeline for civilian driving environments to be used for ADAS (Autonomous Driving) virtual testing and on professional Driving Simulators. Using Machine Learning upon satellite images, stereo images and laser scanning, we extract density distributions of population, area segmentation (e.g. residential or industrial area) and other relevant data about the environment to reconstruct. The pipeline scrapes also GIS providers in order to collect and compile files used for the traffic algorithms and terrain generation. The collected information is combined in the procedural generation of terrain meshes, street meshes, props placement (e.g. traffic signals and lane markings) and procedural buildings generation.
