Miscellaneous

This section contains the links to other useful materials that could help with the preparation to the competition (e.g. simulations, prototyping, tactics and strategy).

• The documentation for the course F1TENTH that teaches the foundations of autonomy by using self-driven cars.

• A tutorial how to build a self-driving RC car using Raspberry Pi and machine learning using Google Colab

• The documentation of the DonkeyCar project. It can be used to build a preliminary viewof how a car for the competition could look. And here is a story, interesting from an engineering point of view, of how the first DonkeyCar appeared.

• The series of blogposts to build and program a self-driving car.

• An article explaining how to assemble a controller to autonomously control an RC car from a smartphone.

• The series of the tutorials in German on how to assemble a customized vehicle and use the DonkeyCar software to control it.

• Another article covering how to transform a toy RC car to be autonomously controlled by the Raspberry Pi board.

• Detailed description how to assemble a self-driven car from Traxxas LaTrax Rally 1/18 4WD and NVIDIA Jetson Nano. Someone could also find it useful to consider a review of hardware costs required for this project in order to see which materials can be used in similar projects.

• A GitHub repo providing materials to control an RC car autonomously by using Raspberry Pi and Neural Networks.
