An open - source vehicle simulator has been launched that automakers can use to test their autonomous vehicle technology in realistic scenarios . CARLA ( Car Learning to Act ) repeatedly retests vehicles against certain criteria , increasing the effectiveness of the technology by forcing it to evaluate scenarios in different ways . Researchers at Intel Labs have collaborated with the automotive Research institute and the Computer Vision institute in Spain to develop the simulation .
An open-source driving simulator has been launched that automakers can use to test their autonomous vehicle technology in realistic environments. CARLA (Car Learning to Act) repeatedly retests vehicles against certain criteria, increasing the performance of the technology by forcing it to evaluate scenarios in different ways. Researchers at Intel Labs have collaborated with the Toyota Research Institute and the Computer Vision Center in Spain to create the technology.
