In December 2020, the company held its Season One Beta at Thruxton in the UK, live-streamed through platforms such as Twitch. The AI algorithms developed by each team calculate the ‘cost’ of routes in real time, working out the path of least resistance. The algorithms driving the cars must react to virtual obstacles (which can add penalties) and collect items (which reduce their time). The cars operate physically on the racing track, but also within a mixed ‘computer reality’, where obstacles and rewards are overlaid virtually on the track. The hardware for each car is standardised, meaning that the only differentiator is the AI technology developed by teams. Roborace organises motor racing championships for self-driving cars, all of which are electric vehicles (EVs) and use artificial intelligence software. ![]()
