Project description:
We all know about the dawn of the self-driving car, but we also know about the problems and dangers in early versions. This project is planning, designing, and creating a working testbed that will simulate various urban environments and traffic scenarios, and will employ various simulations, with the goal of developing improved operating software for self-driving cars in complex urban landscapes.
