Episode 094: The Indy Autonomous Challenge - Ansys Simulation Race
Monday Aug 09, 2021
Monday Aug 09, 2021
In this episode your host and Co-Founder of PADT, Eric Miller is joined by participants of the recent Ansys Simulation Race as part of the Indy Autonomous Challenge (IAC).
Before university teams from around the globe compete in the IAC race currently scheduled for October 2021, they first had to prove their software in the virtual world at the Ansys IAC Simulation Race.
Once the racecar software controllers of the teams were submitted, Ansys conducted an entirely virtual race consisting of qualifying rounds and a final race. Ansys awarded the winning team a $100,000 prize and the runner up a $50,000 prize.
Listen to learn more about this exciting showcase for the capabilities of Ansys autonomous technology.
