After testing the individual modules (perception and localization, decision-making and motion planning, motion control), it is also possible to validate the complete system using simulation: either only with software tests or also with hardware components such as real-life sensors and processors. To gather the necessary information, it is essential to have high-speed, realistic sensor models and vehicle dynamics models along with complex simulation scenarios to master.
