Building virtual worlds for simulation with Unreal Engine & AWS Ambit
summary
AWS shows a concrete workflow that turns OpenStreetMap data and Unreal assets into ready-to-run simulator scenarios using the AWS Ambit Scenario Designer plugin. Tools demonstrated include Spawn on Path, Spawn in Volume, Vehicle Path and Ambit Building/Road Generator; Ambit exports simple JSON scenario files, bulk-generates permutations (example creates 72 unique scenarios) and uploads them to S3. Outputs are compatible with UE4/UE5 and common simulators (CARLA, AirSim), and the demo successfully produces varied static, dynamic and weather configurations ready for simulation.
