Telematics Data Collection from BeamNG with Openpilot Integration

Bhargab Acharya and Christos Papadopoulos, University of Memphis; Spiros Thanasoulas

We present a framework that integrates BeamNG.tech's high-fidelity vehicle simulation environment with Comma.ai's Openpilot autonomous driving system. This framework provides an accessible platform for automotive security researchers to collect realistic telematics data, simulate in-vehicle networks, and develop security solutions without requiring access to specialized hardware. Our system bridges the gap between simplified simulations and real-world vehicle behavior, enabling a wide range of research applications in automotive as well as broader research areas such as transportation, environment and emissions related fields.
