AUTONOMOUS URBAN DRIVING

This project aims to develop an autonomous driving system for urban environment that detect surrounding vehicles, infer their intents and driving styles to plan the path for an autonomous vehicle. We have successfully validated our planner in simulation and in real-world environments.

mULTI CLASS MOBILITY-ON-DEMAND

This project aims to seamlessly connect first mile to last mile of a passenger journey using multiple modes of transport including (walk, cycle, scooter, drive, ride in public transport). We also address the problem of fleet sizing to trade-off the travel time and capital budget.
