OpenBot leverages smartphones as brains for low-cost robots. We have designed a small electric vehicle that costs about $50 and serves as a robot body. Our software stack for Android smartphones supports advanced robotics workloads such as person following and real-time autonomous navigation. Current robots are either expensive or make significant compromises on sensory richness, computational power, and communication capabilities. We propose to leverage smartphones to equip robots with...

CARLA has been developed from the ground up to support development, training, and validation of autonomous driving systems. In addition to open-source code and protocols, CARLA provides open digital assets (urban layouts, buildings, vehicles) that were created for this purpose and can be used freely. The simulation platform supports flexible specification of sensor suites, environmental conditions, full control of all static and dynamic actors, maps generation and much more. Multiple clients...

3D visual perception tasks, including 3D detection and map segmentation based on multi-camera images, are essential for autonomous driving systems. In this work, we present a new framework termed BEVFormer, which learns unified BEV representations with spatiotemporal transformers to support multiple autonomous driving perception tasks. In a nutshell, BEVFormer exploits both spatial and temporal information by interacting with spatial and temporal space through predefined grid-shaped BEV...

Software Infrastructure for Stanford's Autonomous Vehicles

In Portugal every year there is place the Robotics National Festival. One competition is the "Conducao Autonoma"(Autonomous Driving). This simulator plans to be a framework that could be used to test and development the vision and controll algoritms

The unmanned autonomous vehicle is one step before the flying car. We propose a radically new approach which builds on the decades of research in Artificial Intelligence that is designed for a car from the ground up.

Autonomous vehicle code that does navigation using both dead-reckoning techniques and gps. The development platform is a 1/18th scale r/c truck.
