Abstract
System, methods, and other embodiments described herein relate to emulating vehicle dynamics. In one embodiment, a method for emulating vehicle dynamics in a vehicle having a plurality of wheels and equipped with all-wheel steering, includes receiving emulation settings that indicate one or more environment parameters and/or vehicle parameters, detecting driver inputs including at least steering input and throttle input, executing a simulation model that receives the driver inputs and emulation settings, simulates the vehicle operating based on the driver inputs and the emulation settings, and outputs one or more simulated states of the vehicle based on the simulated operation of the vehicle, determining one or more actuation commands for each wheel of the vehicle to cause the vehicle to emulate the one or more simulated states, and executing the one or more actuation commands, wherein the actuation commands include at least wheel angle commands and torque commands.
