What are Driverless Vehicles?
Driverless vehicles, also known as autonomous or self-driving vehicles, are vehicles that can operate, navigate and sense their environment without any human involvement. These vehicles use a combination of sensors, actuators, complex algorithms and machine learning systems to perceive the environment around them, analyze data and then make decisions to control it’s movements.
THE WORKSHOP
Registration ends on August 30, 2023
Online Sessions from September until November 2023
