Can the Public Beat GM, Google and Uber on Self-Driving Cars?
- jonnycowboy 10y agoI think this is mainly a "data" challege, how does Udacity plan on gaining an upper hand on this, especially with competitors like Uber and Tesla which gather data exponentially with each new ride/car sold?
- mikbob 10y agoI don't think goal of this challenge is to beat Uber and Tesla (in fact, the "nanodegree" is partnered with Uber's self driving car division).
- ericlavigne 10y agoThe goal is to create open source software for self-driving cars. That's a win if the quality is anywhere close to what Uber and Tesla have developed. The first challenge is to create a conv net that decides how to turn the wheel to stay in the lanes, similar to what Nvidia described in their devblog. https://devblogs.nvidia.com/parallelforall/deep-learning-self-driving-cars/ https://devblogs.nvidia.com/parallelforall/deep-learning-sel... Expect data to be released within a week. Join the Slack team at http://nd013.udacity.com http://nd013.udacity.com for more details (channel: challenge-1).
