Optimizes (Maximizes) the velocity profile for a vehicle in real-time respecting physical constraints (e.g., power, force, combined acceleration, ...). Takes into account a variable friction potential between road and tires. Max. power input can be space-variable (for, e.g., energy strategy purposes).

This software is provided as-is and has not been subject to a certified safety validation. Autonomous Driving is a highly complex and dangerous task. In case you plan to use this software on a vehicle, it is by all means required that you assess the overall safety of your project as a whole. By no means is this software a replacement for a valid safety-concept. See the license for more details.
