Online Environment

In the SW Division SIM Qualifying, scoring is conducted using an online environment equipped with a simulator and automatic scoring function. Follow the steps below to upload your packages to the online environment. After uploading, the simulation will automatically start and results will be displayed.

Note: Screenshots on this page are from 2025.

Submission Steps

Submit to the online environment using the following steps:

  1. Compress source code

    • Run ./create_submit_file.bash to compress the aichallenge_submit directory.
    • The compressed file is saved at aichallenge-racingkart/submit/aichallenge_submit.tar.gz.

  2. Verify operation in local evaluation environment

    See Development Guide — Local Evaluation for details.

  3. Submit to the online scoring environment

    Access the online environment.

    Log in from the "Login" button in the top right.

    Once logged in, upload aichallenge_submit.tar.gz using the "Submit Code" button. After uploading, the source code will be built and simulation will be run in sequence.

    If successful, "Success" will be displayed. If the build fails, the launch fails, or the score is not output, "Failed" will be displayed. In this case, please re-upload as there may be an internal server error. Contact us via Slack if the problem persists.

Checking Results

  • After the race finishes in the online environment, you can check the latest rankings.

  • Detailed race data including lap times and logs can be checked by clicking the button at the right end of the submission history.

    • You can check result-summary.json, rosbag, and autoware.log.

If Failed

  • Check for package dependency issues

    • Verify that there are no missing dependencies in package.xml, setup.py, or CMakeLists.txt, depending on the language used.

  • Check Docker

    • Use the following command to check inside Docker and verify that everything is correctly installed and built in the required directories.

    • docker run -it aichallenge-racingkart-eval:latest /bin/bash

  • Directories to check:

    • /aichallenge/workspace/*
    • /autoware/install/*
