  • The Donkey Gym simulator, which is both super useful for training at home as well as what we use for our virtual races, has been significantly improved. Along with new tracks, it now supports virtual Lidar.

  • Speaking of which, lidar is now supported on real Donkey Cars, too. RPLidar and YPLidar (in beta) 2-D lidars now have parts in Donkey Car - so you can do effective obstacle avoidance, slam, drive in the dark or have a donkey F1/10.

  • Instructions (with pictures!!) how to setup the car to drive with the RC controller that is usually shipped with any car - this provides the ‘classic’ RC driving feel.

  • A new Donkey UI app:

  • You can edit your tub using the app, this replaces donkey tubclean
  • There is also support for training the model
  • You can run and compare two pilots
  • On OSX/Linux you can transfer data between the car and the PC
  • Support for L298 motor controller in the car app
  • Support for both simple and quadrature encoders to add odometry learning and driving
  • Enabling storage of position, gyro, acceleration, velocity in the tub when using the Donkey Gym!
  • MQTT logging
  • donkey findcar now working on RPi 4
