min_steering_angle

Maximum tyre angle to the Left in radians

Returns:

float

METHOD

steering_angle(

normalised_steering_input: float

)

Calculates the tyre angle in radians based on the provided normalised steering value

Arguments:

  • normalised_steering_input (float) - Steering wheel angle normalised by steering lock between -1.0 and 1.0

Returns:

float
