Autonomous Driving and Undergraduates: an Affordable Setup for Teaching Robotics
نویسندگان
چکیده
This work proposes an affordable setup for the application of machine learning to autonomous driving. We discuss the hardware details of the platform, and propose a scenario wherein learning from demonstration is leveraged to teach a vehicle how to drive. Preliminary results are discussed, together with potential targets enabled by the setup.
