This course is for graduate students interested in the fields of robot perception, motion planning, control theory, and autonomous systems. This course introduces students to the methodology and algorithms involved in the design and control of an autonomous race car. Topics include localisation, scan matching, PID control, mapping, learning based visual navigation, model-predictive control and ethical decision making. Students test and implement their algorithms in a racing sand-box.
