Amazon releases DeepRacer software in open source

In November 2018, Amazon launched AWS DeepRacer, a car about the size of a shoebox that runs on AI models trained in a virtual environment with reinforcement learning techniques. DeepRacer has expanded since then, with a women's league and new miniature race cars. Starting today, Amazon is making the DeepRacer device software available in open source. The pandemic has boosted automation and robotics in the enterprise. The global market for robots is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of around 26% to reach just under $210 billion by 2025, according to Statista.
