Basic Lane Change Example

Hello everyone, I am new to automated driving toolbox and my advisor gave me a work to do, I need to create a scenario, in the scenario, there are a car and a barrier, so basically car will start to move and when it detects the barrier from a spesific distance, the car needs to change its lane. I was looking for some examples to do this, but they are so high level and complicated, so is there anyone who can help me? Which steps are there to create a lane change model? What functions do I need to write or use? More basic example suggestions maybe. Below in the files you will see the things I have done. Thanks in advance.

Hi Atakan,

You can refer to these resources and examples for design an automated lane change maneuver system:

1 - https://www.mathworks.com/help/driving/ug/highway-lane-change.html

2 - https://www.mathworks.com/help/driving/ug/overview-of-lane-changing-systems.html

(This contains overview and list of all examples related to components: Sensor Fusion and Tracking, Planner, and Control)

3 - https://www.mathworks.com/help/driving/ug/overview-of-collision-avoidance-systems.html

(This contains examples for designing and testing collision avoidance systems )

Hope this helps.

Why the examples are complicated and very few? For example highway lane change is so hard to understand for someone who is beginner like me.
