## 📋 Project Description

**Baseer** is an advanced self-driving system that provides a robust, real-time API for autonomous vehicle control. This Space hosts the FastAPI server that acts as an interface to the fine-tuned **[Interfuser-Baseer-v1](https://huggingface.co/Adam-IT/Interfuser-Baseer-v1)** model.

The system is designed to take a live camera feed and vehicle measurements, process them through the deep learning model, and return actionable control commands and a comprehensive scene analysis.

---

## 🏗️ Architecture

This project follows a decoupled client-server architecture, where the model and the application are managed separately for better modularity and scalability.

## ✨ Key Features

### 🧠 **Advanced Perception Engine**
- **Powered by:** The [Interfuser-Baseer-v1](https://huggingface.co/Adam-IT/Interfuser-Baseer-v1) model.
- **Focus:** High-accuracy traffic object detection and safe waypoint prediction.
- **Scene Analysis:** Real-time assessment of junctions, traffic lights, and stop signs.

### ⚡ **High-Performance API**
- **Framework:** Built with **FastAPI** for high throughput and low latency.
- **Stateful Sessions:** Manages multiple, independent driving sessions, each with its own tracker and controller state.
- **RESTful Interface:** Intuitive and easy-to-use API design.

### 📊 **Comprehensive Outputs**
- **Control Commands:** `steer`, `throttle`, `brake`.
- **Scene Analysis:** Probabilities for junctions, traffic lights, and stop signs.
- **Predicted Waypoints:** The model's intended path for the next 10 steps.
- **Visual Dashboard:** A generated image that provides a complete, human-readable overview of the current state.

## 🚀 How to Use

Interact with the API by making HTTP requests to its endpoints.

### 1. Start a New Session
This will initialize a new set of tracker and controller instances on the server.
```bash
curl -X POST "https://adam-it-baseer-server.hf.space/start_session"
```

Response: `{"session_id": "your-new-session-id"}`

### 2. Run a Simulation Step

Send the current camera view and vehicle measurements to be processed.

```bash
curl -X POST "https://adam-it-baseer-server.hf.space/run_step" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "session_id": "your-new-session-id",
    "image_b64": "your-base64-encoded-bgr-image-string",
    "measurements": {
      "pos_global": [105.0, -20.0],
      "theta": 1.57,
      "speed": 5.5,
      "target_point": [10.0, 0.0]
    }
  }'
```

### 3. End the Session

This will clean up the session data from the server.

```bash
curl -X POST "https://adam-it-baseer-server.hf.space/end_session?session_id=your-new-session-id"
```

## 🎯 Intended Use Cases & Limitations

### ✅ Optimal Use Cases
- Simulating driving in CARLA environments.
- Research in end-to-end autonomous driving.
- Testing perception and control modules in a closed-loop system.
- Real-time object detection and trajectory planning.

### ⚠️ Limitations
- **Simulation-Only:** Trained exclusively on CARLA data. Not suitable for real-world driving.
- **Vision-Based:** Relies on a single front-facing camera and has inherent blind spots.
- **No LiDAR:** Lacks the robustness of sensor fusion in adverse conditions.
