Overview

Indy Autonomous Challenge is a new type of competition that challenges teams from around the world to create autonomous systems for a vehicle capable of taking part in racecar competition at famed Indianapolis Motor Speedway. It is a great testing ground for teams working on solutions related to autonomous vehicles. We are a team from Warsaw University of Technology in Poland originating from Students' Robotics Association (Koło Naukowe Robotyków KNR). We derive from project "Selfie", which was founded 3 years ago by two robotics geeks, and since then has grown to as many as 25 students from many fields including Software, Electrical, and Mechanical Engineering. We make small scale cars and develop software for some of the most popular autonomous car racing challenges such as Carolo-Cup, F1/10, and IARRC. Some of our biggest achievements include 1st place at IARRC 2018 and 2nd place at Carolo-Cup 2020. The project has been a source of multiple scientific papers and presentations on international conferences and meetups.
