What's needed:

  • Ubuntu 20.04
  • GPU (recommended)

  • Car harness with black panda to connect to your car
  • Panda paw or USB-A to USB-A cable to connect panda to your computer That's it!

Setup openpilot

cd ~
git clone https://github.com/commaai/openpilot.git
  • Follow this readme to install the requirements

  • Install tensorflow 2.2 and nvidia drivers: nvidia-xxx/cuda10.0/cudnn7.6.5
  • Install OpenCL Driver
  • Install OpenCV4 (ignore the Python part)

Build openpilot for webcam

cd ~/openpilot
  • check out selfdrive/camerad/cameras/camera_webcam.cc lines 72 and 146 before building if any camera is upside down
USE_WEBCAM=1 scons -j$(nproc)

Connect the hardware

  • Connect the road facing camera first, then the driver facing camera

cd ~/openpilot/selfdrive/manager
PASSIVE=0 NOSENSOR=1 USE_WEBCAM=1 ./manager.py
