release: Fox v1.1 "Ares" — Stage-Based Pipeline & Radar Parity

This release marks a major architectural shift and achieves full feature
parity with the high-fidelity Shenron radar testbench.

Architecture:
- Implemented PipelineManager and Stage-based execution (Sim, Shenron, MCAP, Video).
- Decoupled recorder from physics/augmentation logic into src/processing/physics.py.
- Migrated all path resolution to Pathlib for cross-platform robustness.

Radar & Metrology:
- Integrated FastHeatmapEngine for stateful, high-performance RD/RA/CFAR rendering.
- Implemented dual-plot Range-Azimuth (Static Absolute vs Dynamic Peak).
- Flattened telemetry schema for direct Foxglove Plot panel compatibility.
- Added hardware-accurate 3D FOV frustum projections (LINE_LIST).

Dashboard & UX:
- Bumped version to v1.1.
- Fixed stop.flag detection bug in simulation shutdown.
- Optimized GPU headroom by maintaining idle/sync mode during synthesis.

# Implementation Plan: Stage-Based Pipeline Refactor
Refactor the Fox CARLA ADAS simulation pipeline to separate concerns across environment management, data processing, and serialization. This moves the project from a monolithic `main.py` to a modular, stage-based architecture.
## User Review Required
> [!IMPORTANT]
> **Dashboard Telemetry Persistence**: The Dashboard backend (`app.py`) parses specific `stdout` patterns like `[SHENRON_STEP]` and `[AUTO-MCAP]`. We must ensure the new `PipelineManager` or the individual stages continue to emit these strings to avoid breaking the UI progress bars.
> [!WARNING]
> **Resource Management**: During the transition from `SimulationStage` to `ShenronStage`, we must explicitly ensure CARLA's synchronous mode is either released or the process is handled such that GPU memory is freed for the heavy Shenron Torch operations.
## Proposed Changes
---
### [NEW] Pipeline Core (`src/pipeline/`)
Establish the foundational classes for stage-based execution.
#### [NEW] [base.py](file:///d:/CARLA/CARLA_0.9.16/PythonAPI/Fox/src/pipeline/base.py)
- Define `PipelineContext`: Dataclass to carry `session_path`, `scenario_config`, and `args`.
- Define `PipelineStage`: Abstract Base Class with `run(context)` and `cleanup()` methods.
#### [NEW] [manager.py](file:///d:/CARLA/CARLA_0.9.16/PythonAPI/Fox/src/pipeline/manager.py)
- Implement `PipelineManager`: Orchestrates the execution of a list of `PipelineStage` objects.
- Handles error propagation and graceful halts.
---
### [NEW] Processing Layer (`src/processing/`)
Extract physics and data-augmentation logic to make it reusable and testable.
#### [NEW] [physics.py](file:///d:/CARLA/CARLA_0.9.16/PythonAPI/Fox/src/processing/physics.py)
- **`calculate_radial_velocity`**: Extracted from `recorder.py`. Calculates line-of-sight velocity for LiDAR points.
- **`compute_adas_metrics`**: Extracted from `recorder.py`. Calculates range, azimuth, and closing velocity for NPCs.
---
### [MODIFY] Simulation & Recording
Clean up existing components to focus on their primary responsibilities.
#### [MODIFY] [recorder.py](file:///d:/CARLA/CARLA_0.9.16/PythonAPI/Fox/src/recorder.py)
- Remove physics calculation logic.
- Update `save()` to accept pre-calculated metrics.
- Move `_generate_videos` to a utility function.
#### [MODIFY] [main.py](file:///d:/CARLA/CARLA_0.9.16/PythonAPI/Fox/src/main.py)
- Remove monolithic simulation loop.
- Transform into a thin wrapper that initializes `PipelineManager` with `SimStage`, `ShenronStage`, and `McapStage`.
---
### [NEW] Pipeline Stages (`src/pipeline/stages/`)
Encapsulate logic into discrete execution units.
#### [NEW] [sim_stage.py](file:///d:/CARLA/CARLA_0.9.16/PythonAPI/Fox/src/pipeline/stages/sim_stage.py)
- Port the CARLA simulation loop from `main.py`.
- Manage `SensorManager` and `Recorder` lifecycles.
#### [NEW] [shenron_stage.py](file:///d:/CARLA/CARLA_0.9.16/PythonAPI/Fox/src/pipeline/stages/shenron_stage.py)
- Wrap `scripts/generate_shenron.py` logic.
- Ensure `[SHENRON_STEP]` telemetry is emitted.
#### [NEW] [mcap_stage.py](file:///d:/CARLA/CARLA_0.9.16/PythonAPI/Fox/src/pipeline/stages/mcap_stage.py)
- Wrap `scripts/data_to_mcap.py` logic.
- Register Foxglove schemas and handle final serialization.
---
## Verification Plan
### Automated Tests
- **Physics Parity Test**: Create a script in `scratch/` that runs the old `recorder.py` logic and the new `physics.py` logic on the same frame to ensure bit-identical results for radial velocity and ADAS metrics.
- **Pipeline Dry-Run**: Run the pipeline with `--skip-sim` on an existing data folder to verify that `ShenronStage` and `McapStage` correctly identify and process the files.
### Manual Verification
- **Dashboard Validation**: Launch the Dashboard via `dashboard.bat`, trigger a simulation, and verify that:
1. The console log shows the new stage transitions.
2. The progress bars for Shenron and MCAP update correctly.
- **Foxglove Check**: Open the generated `.mcap` in Foxglove and verify that the LiDAR (with radial velocity) and Radar pointclouds are visualized correctly.

# Fox v1.1 Release Walkthrough
This release marks a major architectural shift from a monolithic script to a modular, stage-based pipeline, while simultaneously achieving full feature parity with the high-fidelity `test_shenron.py` radar testbench.
## 🚀 Key Achievements
### 1. Unified Radar Physics & Visualization
- **Single Source of Truth**: All radar plotting and post-processing logic is now centralized in `scripts/ISOLATE/sim_radar_utils/plots.py`.
- **FastHeatmapEngine**: Migrated the production pipeline to the stateful rendering engine, resulting in consistent dB scaling and improved performance.
- **Dual RA Stream**: Range-Azimuth (RA) visualization now produces both a **Static** (absolute magnitude) and **Dynamic** (peak-tracking) stream for Foxglove.
- **3D FOV Frustums**: Added hardware-accurate 3D frustum wireframes for all radar types (AWRL1432 and RadarBook).
### 2. Modular Stage-Based Pipeline
- **PipelineManager**: Orchestrates the execution of discrete stages: `Simulation``Shenron``MCAP``Video`.
- **Feature Parity**: Ported advanced telemetry flattening and metrology math from the testbench to the production exporter.
- **Selective Execution**: New CLI flags allow running only specific stages (e.g., `--only-mcap` to re-process existing data).
### 3. Robustness & Portability
- **Pathlib Integration**: Replaced brittle `os.path` joins with robust `Pathlib` logic in all pipeline stages and the orchestrator.
- **Stop Flag Detection**: Fixed a path bug in the stop flag detection to ensure graceful simulation shutdown works reliably across different working directories.
- **Hardware Persistence**: Added `radar_specs.json` generation to save hardware constants (carrier frequency, velocity limits) during synthesis for downstream visualization.
## 🛠️ Verification Results
| Component | Status | Verification Detail |
|---|---|---|
| **Dashboard** | ✅ | Version bumped to v1.1; scenario list and status polling verified. |
| **SimStage** | ✅ | Verified ego spawn, weather application, and `stop.flag` path resolution. |
| **ShenronStage** | ✅ | Verified `sys.path` injection and telemetry event emission. |
| **McapStage** | ✅ | Verified `FastHeatmapEngine` initialization and `ISOLATE` path handling. |
| **Telemetry** | ✅ | Verified flattened schema for Foxglove Plot panel compatibility. |
## 📦 File Audit Summary
- `src/main.py`: Refactored to thin CLI wrapper for `PipelineManager`.
- `src/pipeline/*`: New core architecture for stage management.
- `src/recorder.py`: Decoupled from physics logic; focused on raw capture.
- `src/processing/physics.py`: Reusable physics layer for radial velocity and ADAS metrics.
- `scripts/data_to_mcap.py`: Upgraded to v1.1 with testbench parity and 3D diagnostics.
- `dashboard/templates/index.html`: UI updated to reflect v1.1.
