I have two recommendations for you Duckietown ( https://www.duckietown.org ) and AWS DeepRacer ( https://aws.amazon.com/deepracer ). Hope that helps! ------- If you want to get more serious about robotics then check

I work as a lead autonomous vehicle engineer. Here's a few thoughts: * This isn't really open-source. The most important part, the neural network perception pipeline, is closed sourced. Without the training data and the network

I work as a lead autonomous vehicle engineer and have designed a sensor suite. Here's a few thoughts: * They say it has a 95 degrees vertical FOV and 360 degrees FOV. The vertical FOV is awesome actually. A Velodyne VLP-16 has roughly

Way more. They say it has a 95 degrees vertical FOV and 360 degrees FOV. The vertical FOV is awesome actually. A Velodyne VLP-16 has roughly 30 degrees FOV. We need the vertical and horizontal angular resolution to make any real judgements

It's not solid state because it's moving. Solid state usually uses an IR flash technology. :)

I was working a 40 hour job and doing the nanodegree in the mornings before work. I worked on assignments during the weekend. I tried to manage my time well to avoid falling behind or having to do a project at the last minutw. My sister was

It’s important to understand the heritage of the SDC algorithms. They also provide you with a lot of different perspectives from a practical system design level.

Take it seriously (take notes on paper like ‘real’ school) and be sure to read the papers from the 2007 DARPA urban challenge. See my other comment for the link. Good luck :-)

Keep trying! I’m fortunate. I worked extremely hard and passionately the whole nanodegree too. Maybe even to the point where it would seem obsessive ha. I’d recommend reading the papers from the DARPA 2007 challenge. https://www.

I used to do mobile development. You need a strong portfolio to compete. I had made around 6 apps (some my ideas and some for clients) when I got my first mobile job. Consider making some novel apps without any expectation of being paid.

Great job Ricardo! I took the 9-month Self-Driving Car Nanodegree and managed to find a job in the AV industry right before graduating. I found the ND worth every penny because they broke down really dense topics that you’d usually need to

For the love of God, we don't need anymore JS "native" app frameworks. Just learn Swift and Java like a competent engineer would.

Sounds pretty similar to Udacity's AI for Robots course! Good to know that they focus on intuition rather than rigor. Many professor enjoy stroking their ego with rigorous math, rather than communicating higher-level ideas and making t

Awesome! I wonder if this could be used for end-to-end testing for iOS apps. For instance, automating turning on/off items within the Settings app.

Well, yes this can done. Noise cancelation & voice extraction algorithms aren't implemented here but it's totally possible. It wouldn't be too bad to implement if you have a decent understanding of DSP.
