A driving test using simulation software for traffic situations has caused fierce controversy due to its lack of practical relevance, leading many people to fail "unjustly." Vu Van Nam, 35, from Hanoi ...

The world’s largest and most important tech event, CES (Consumer Technology Association) is coming up soon, at the beginning of January. A lot of exciting innovations are scheduled to make their ...

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 ...

University of Maryland computer scientist Dinesh Manocha, in collaboration with a team of colleagues from Baidu Research and the University of Hong Kong, has developed a photo-realistic simulation ...

Google, it has emerged, has built a 'Matrix-style' simulation of the entirety of California to test its self-driving cars. While this in itself isn't massively surprising given Google's history as a ...

The BMW Group has started work on a new $116 million Driving Simulation Center in Munich that will help with the company’s testing and development of autonomous driving technology. The new facility ...

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 ...

Imagine a world with driverless tractor trailers hauling heavy cargo at freeway speeds and mixed in amongst the lousy drivers in Atlanta traffic. Now imagine that autonomous technology’s testing 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.
