F1/10 is a low-cost autonomous racing platform for research and education in motion control algorithms, sensor fusion, and machine learning. F1/10 drives innovation with open-source technology promoting collaboration in autonomous racing and robotics.
Co-Founder of Technion F1/10 Autonomous Racing Team
As a co-founder of the Technion F1/10 Autonomous Racing Team, I played a key role in establishing and launching the team, which focuses on researching and developing cutting-edge technology in the field of autonomous racing. The team's work involves implementing with control, SLAM, & motion planning algorithms.
Highlights
Reactive Methods
At the Technion ECE Demo-Day, our team successfully demonstrated the car with reactive methods, including PID wall-following, and follow-the-gap algorithms. The car was able to react quickly to avoid random obstacles placed in its path
