Plug-ins will enable external developers to extend the core playground, making sure they can implement their own use cases. The primary use for plug-ins is in the prototype runtime. This means that prototype developers can easily re-use plug-ins in their own Python code.

There will be 2 main types of plug-ins:

  • VSS plug-in
    • Implements / overwrites a VSS Python class
    • Can also do visualization via JavaScript
    • Interacts with backend via VSS data broker, if needed
    • Examples: “Moving vehicle plug-in”, includes
      • JavaScript impl. of Google-Map like visualization
      • A set of VSS interface implementations to read the vehicle speed, acceleration, etc.
  • Backend plug-ins
    • Does not implement a specific VSS interface
    • Communicates with a generic cloud service (not via data broker)
    • Examples: “AI inference for Smart Wipers”

There will be 2 levels of visibility for plug-ins

  • Protected
    • Visible / editable for invited users
  • Public
    • Visible for all in the “plug-in web store”-list of plug-ins
    • Editable for invited users

Plug-ins will have meta-data

  • An image, e.g. used on the plug-in home page
  • An icon, e.g. used in the "Analysis" tab
