Abstract
Techniques for instantiating objects in a simulated environment based on log data are disclosed herein. Some of the techniques may include receiving log data representing an environment in which a real-world vehicle was operating. Using the log data, a simulated environment for testing a simulated vehicle may be generated. The simulated environment may represent the environment in which the real-world vehicle was operating. The techniques may further include determining a location of the simulated vehicle as it traverses the simulated environment. Based at least in part on the log data, a prior location of the real-world vehicle in the environment closest to the location of the simulated vehicle in the simulated environment may be determined. In this way, the simulated environment may be updated to include a simulated object representing an object in the environment that was perceived by the vehicle from the prior location.
