There are just a few small differences, e.g., 4 arena (corner) cameras on e4 versus a front-left front-right only corner cameras on e2. The actual python code (not various CMake configs), is nearly identical, aside from potential some parameters about vehicle length/width, etc. - - You are not constrained to using a PID controller (as is done in `gem_gnss_tracker_pid.py` for lane following). We have also implemented Pure Pursuit and Stanley controllers in `gem_gnss_tracker_pp.py` and `gem_gnss_tracker_stanley_rtk.py` respectively. However, note that the Pure Pursuit and Stanley controllers do not currently support integration with the lane detection module / lane following. You would have to do some integration work (though, that should not be too hard). You can choose to only use pieces of this starter code (or, you can choose to use none of it).
