Pitt Autonomous Racing Team Earns Support from Pittsburgh Robotics Community -- RoboPGH

CMU School of Computer Science 

A student-led team of robotics experts will participate in the penultimate event next week for an international challenge that could pave the way for future breakthrough innovations in the world of autonomous vehicles. It should, given Pittsburgh universities' history of performing well in challenges such as the DARPA Grand Challenge, DARPA Urban Challenge or the 2012-2015 Robotics Challenge. But this time it's not a Carnegie Mellon University-led team that is preparing – it's a student group of roboticists from the University of Pittsburgh readying itself for next week's Indy Autonomous Challenge finals on October 23rd. The goal of the challenge is a race around the famous Indianapolis Motor Speedway in self-driving cars – the grand prize of $1 million is up for grabs. Leading the team is Nayana Suvarna, the head of Pitt's Robotics & Automation Society (RAS), a robotics club at the school that pursues robotics education opportunities (the school doesn't have a formal robotics program).
