ABOUT AUTODRIVE
In April of 2017, Virginia Tech, alongside seven other schools, was selected to be a part of the GM and SAE International sponsored AutoDrive Challenge. The objective of this competition is to plan, design, and build a fully autonomous ground vehicle in the next three years. To participate in this competition, the team has to provide detailed instructions, including the necessary equipment, working hours, and project members. It is required to create an approximate budget for the costs mentioned above and a car repair financing plan. The team will be provided a Chevy Bolt Electric in which they will have to convert into an autonomous vehicle. The vehicle will then be put to the test in a rigorous urban driving course.
