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 the Toyota Research Institute have collaborated with Intel Labs and the Computer Vision Center in Spain to create the technology.
