It's amazing how far we have come as a species, that we are now trying to create a new sport of racing robot cars to entertain our unsatisfied monkey brains because nothing amazes us anymore. We are on the precipitous of a future we could have barely envisaged 20/30 years ago. This is awe inspiring.
I can understand complaining about a sport with life and limb being risked for entertainment, but this is literally the REMOVAL of that very danger from an EXISTING sport that had it. Go live in a cave, hypocritical luddite.
Does anyone else 'out there' get what RoboRace will mean... I see the development of autonomous racing technology being the forerunner of stopping shit loads of real life on the road crashes and saving lives... in a similar respect but with a bigger impact than pretty much every other racing development that's found its way to road cars - autonomy will save lives.
This is truly amazing from a technological standpoint and the future implementations on real street cars could be very useful in improving safety. But I enjoy motorsport racing because of the drivers not just the cars. When AI develops a personality that is individual to every computer maybe...
Electric Motorsport just gets more exciting. What better way is there to test and develop AI driverless technology than under high speed racing conditions. Roborace is breaking new ground in car development. We'll soon see this technology perfected and in the plug in cars that we'll all be driving.
this will yield data for development of autonomous vehicles and it will develop a new branch of entertainment, autonomous race cars (just like the movie "Cars" (2006)).

Maybe there was a self location glitch. It thought it was a bit further ahead already or something. Especially without spectators present, they'll soon crank up the speed.
I just don't get one thing, both the cars are driven by the same AI, with same parameters and same speed, then how will the tailing car overtake the first car??? If only there are 2 different AI or same AI with different parameters, only then can the overtake each other. Can anyone please explain it to me properly.....
But if both the cars are traveling at the same speed and take the corners with the same degree of precision, then how come?? I really can't visualize the possibility of the 2 cars overtaking each other.
I think if you set the cars to just run the same like that, there would be no overtaking. It must be that if the car is set to overtake, it changes it's speed, lines for taking corners, etc. to be more aggressive and overtake. (It's possibly why the rear car crashed. It had to drive differently to overtake but wasn't trained enough to drive like that.) I imagine you could also have the front car try to block the rear car. In that case, both AIs would no longer be purely driving the course as they would solo. Instead, they would be adjusting their driving to be adversarial.
And yet again, no cohesive footage, just tiny bits. For all we know this could be done to cover up how far behind the team is lagging in development. Give us an onboard lap ffs.
I love what you're doing, but can the actual track footage be a little more extended and not edited by a coked up squirrel? We get that it's not as fast and exciting as a human driver yet but I'd really like to see how the cars are moving on the track.
And what happens when some day with quantum computers, or some futuristic new technology, the machines learn themselves and they dont need a human factor....? This people what will they do? what will we do? Will mankind be dedicated to playing hopscotch all day?
I see where this could be useful and the idea is noble. But, as a competition event, if AI performance should have predictable outcome.....why would I watch it? But one day, when AI is good enough to race with human driver~ oh la la, you can call that a race~
Get Elon musk involved and watch the completion begin this and shared information and technology will help raise the profile of autonomous vehicles and the techniques end for domestic use. I'm sure BMW, Mercedes, porsche, Nissan, Toyota, Renault, Ford, etc will all jump on board and push this into a future not so far away.

I for one welcome our new Robot overlords. Looking forward to seeing these bad boys stateside!
Seeing this whole thing growing more and more is amazing.
And it will be interesting to see how many crashes there will be in actual races :)
Can't get over how class this is. Nice vid too.
Just been watching episode 1-6. Love it, best of luck to the @roborace team :)

i think that in f1 that useable but in wrc that just useless... wrc is very not far from 1 death per year
ERMAHGERD this is so frikkin cool, future is going to be awesome. Keep up the great work! This technology will save lives.
make them drift and have nitrous in it and we got the new Ridge Racer in the making
I love these episodes! Really enjoyed this one, shame about Devbot 2! Keep them coming
must be a short track if a lap takes 1.40 seconds
Clearly edited in a hurry
only 30 seconds behind Formula E - you try it :)
Timmy
No, it's simply the time format they chose to use in all their documentary vids. Don't know why though
2:58 Does the car struggle to follow the leader in blindspots? I noticed it was the S turn where the leader was not visible from the camera car.
Can you please release the full video from the race? That's whats interesting. The cockpit clips are so short it gets a bit annoying to watch....
This is truly amazing from a technological standpoint and the future implementations on real street cars could be very useful in improving safety.

Well... At least there was no driver to injure.

great work keep it up
Yeaaaaa, I`m 10 000 subscriber!
This is the perfect F1 safety car.

Why the second car crashes ?
Giacomo Milan I'd like to know too. I think he pushes too hard. So, Roborace, why?
I am interested aswell. Why did it fail, and why did it make the decision to take that rout.
The guys says he pushed it to the limit. Like the song
Maybe there was a self location glitch. It thought it was a bit further ahead already or something. Especially without spectators present, they'll soon crank up the speed.

Can anyone please explain it to me properly.....
I think each AI is set to try and overtake if there is a car observed in front.
But if both the cars are traveling at the same speed and take the corners with the same degree of precision, then how come??
I really can't visualize the possibility of the 2 cars overtaking each other.

In that case, both AIs would no longer be purely driving the course as they would solo. Instead, they would be adjusting their driving to be adversarial.
In other words, they might be the same AIs but driving with different parameters.
Ok now it makes some sense.....Thnx dude.....
And yet again, no cohesive footage, just tiny bits. For all we know this could be done to cover up how far behind the team is lagging in development. Give us an onboard lap ffs.
Lagging behind who?
nah it's not, they've done public demos.
Nice. AI goes WHAM! I thought it was not capable to race properly.

I love what you're doing, but can the actual track footage be a little more extended and not edited by a coked up squirrel? We get that it's not as fast and exciting as a human driver yet but I'd really like to see how the cars are moving on the track.
If Men created the car to travel and for driving pleasure, why remove it from the equation???
MikeVonDoom "Men" can't be trusted...lots of weak points
once the ai reach zero crash rate, the only thing stopping ai cars on the road will be politics
эх Серёга Серёгаа ...
And what happens when some day with quantum computers, or some futuristic new technology, the machines learn themselves and they dont need a human factor....? This people what will they do? what will we do? Will mankind be dedicated to playing hopscotch all day?

i think that the best error made by human why roborace? i dont understand ! the race is a autosport.... yes a sport with sensations a lot of speed ...
