## What it is
Europilot is a Python toolkit that bridges Euro Truck Simulator 2 with deep-learning frameworks, enabling end-to-end self-driving research inside the game. It captures screen input paired with joystick values for training data and provides a virtual joystick driver for real-time model inference and control.

## Use cases
- collect training data from a driving simulator for a self-driving model
- train a CNN to steer a truck from screen pixels
- run real-time inference to control a game with a neural network
- create a virtual joystick driver for programmatic game control
- reproduce PilotNet end-to-end driving research
- build an imitation learning pipeline from gameplay footage

## When to choose
- you want to experiment with end-to-end self-driving algorithms in a safe simulated environment
- you need paired screen-capture and control-input datasets from ETS2
- you use Keras or TensorFlow and want a ready bridge to a game simulator

## When to avoid
- you need real-vehicle or CARLA-grade autonomous driving simulation
- you want a maintained, actively updated project (last release 2020)
- you need driving simulation outside Euro Truck Simulator 2

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: machine-learning, deep-learning, computer-vision, image-processing, simulation, data-generation
- domain: deep-learning, machine-learning, simulation, autonomous-vehicles, gaming-tools
- platform: python, windows
