Where does an autonomous car (AV) go to driving school? So far, most testing has taken place on real-world streets, which has led to accidents and even deaths. Now Wayve — a team of researchers from ...

Ever wanted to build your own ride from scratch and take it for a spin? Right, this is a weird one. I’m not even sure whether I should call it a survival title, a car building or walking simulator; My ...

There are countless driving and racing titles available, yet many follow a similar formula: quick-paced, forgiving gameplay, and minimal attention to realistic physics. These games prioritize fun and ...

Computer scientist Raquel Urtasun, Waabi's founder and CEO, says her company has created next-generation simulation for training self-driving cars. Waabi, a Toronto-based AI startup that came out of ...

Self-driving cars are coming. Or so we’re told. But they still face an existential question: When is a self-driving car truly ready to drive on its own? That will ultimately be judged by regulators ...

The DeepDrive project has made it possible to use Grand Theft Auto to train self-driving cars for some time now. But today, the work is being integrated and open-sourced with OpenAI’s Universe. The ...

Simulation has long been an essential part of testing autonomous driving systems, but only recently has simulation been useful for building and training self-driving vehicles. These advances have set ...

Alphabet's self-driving car effort has ceased on-road testing due to the coronavirus, but its tech is still hard at work. Kyle Hyatt (he/him/his) hails originally from the Pacific Northwest, but has ...

Amid the torrent of news at CES in January, it was easy to miss the unveiling of NVIDIA's Drive platform-- a way for the company to test out its self-driving algorithms through repeated simulations.

Last month, Alphabet offered up its first proper look at Carcraft. The simulation is a virtual home away from home (the real world) for Waymo's self-driving vehicles. Here, you'll find a replica of ...

James Stout was convinced that he'd become a neuroscientist, but a shift to computer science led him to Google and later Waymo, where he pioneered on the company's virtual-realty testing simulation, ...
