<p><img src="../images/top/aichallenge-racing-top.jpeg" alt="AIchallenge2023-Simulation"></p>
<p>We are hosting the Japan Automotive AI Challenge 2023 (Simulation), a motorsport-themed software development competition. Participants will develop autonomous driving software based on <a href="https://github.com/autowarefoundation/autoware.universe">Autoware.Universe</a>, and integrate it into a racing car that runs in the End to End simulation space (AWSIM). The goal is simple, win the race while driving safely!</p>

<h2 id="competition-concept">Competition Concept</h2>
<p>As new technology fields called CASE become the center of competition in the automobile industry, there is a shortage of AI and IT engineers, and the need for them is rapidly increasing throughout the automobile industry.</p>
<p>As a new initiative to discover and develop engineers who will lead the automotive industry in the future, we will hold an international competition to compete for AI technology in autonomous driving.</p>
<p>We aim to build a framework that contributes to the further development of the automobile industry, starting from this competition, which is conducted through industry-government-academia cooperation.</p>

<h2 id="japan-automotive-ai-challenge-2023-simulation-goals">Japan Automotive AI Challenge 2023 (Simulation) Goals</h2>
<p>Motorsports, which test the driving performance of automobiles in extreme conditions, have contributed to the improvement and development of automobile performance by creating technical challenges. The 2023 Autonomous Driving AI Challenge (Simulation) is aimed at contributing to the development of autonomous driving technology that can safely and quickly operate in an end-to-end (E2E) simulation environment.</p>
<p>Autonomous driving in racing involves a variety of technical elements, such as control technology that takes into account lateral slip, air resistance, and vehicle response characteristics, as well as tracking and behavior prediction of other vehicles. This tournament provides participants with an opportunity to develop autonomous driving software with strategic driving planning and advanced vehicle control functions that incorporate these elements, and to share their knowledge. We expect that engineers who have acquired new technologies through this Challenge will contribute to technological innovation in the automotive industry.</p>

<p>The race course for this tournament will be the <a href="https://www.google.com/maps/search/MonzaTrack">MonzaTrack</a>. It is about 5.8 kilometers long and has a complex shape, including long straights and hairpin turns. Participants will race on this circuit-themed course along with multiple rival vehicles. As rival vehicles will accelerate, brake, and change course in response to your autonomous vehicle, strategic path planning is required.</p>

<h3 id="challenge-1-perception">Challenge 1: Perception</h3>
<p><img src="../images/top/aichallenge-racing-perception.jpeg" alt="Challenge 1: Robust Perception"></p>
<p>Safety posits always highest priority in autonomous driving. The first step to avoid collisions is to recognize other vehicles from sensor data and predict their movements. The first challenge is the development of fast and robust recognition functions.</p>
<h3 id="challenge-1-robust-perception">Challenge 1: Robust Perception</h3>
<p>In the first challenge, participants are required to predict the future behavior of other vehicles based on the vehicle recognition data provided by the simulator. Autonomous vehicles require a high level of safety, and it is essential to detect and predict the movements of other vehicles that exist in the surrounding 360 degrees through sensor data in order to avoid collisions. In this competition, we provide accurate data (ground truth) as vehicle recognition information so that participants can focus on behavior prediction.</p>

<li>Other vehicle tracking: Participants use sensor data to track the location and movement of other vehicles. This process includes analyzing information from the sensors and accurately identifying vehicles in the vicinity.</li>
<li>Behavior prediction: Based on the data from tracked vehicles, the future behavior is predicted. This prediction is essential for collision avoidance and the development of safe driving strategies.</li>

<p>The course of this competition is approximately 5.8km long and has a complex shape including long straights and hairpin curves. You will drive on this circuit-themed course with several rival cars. The rival cars will accelerate and decelerate or change courses according to your autonomous driving car, so strategic route planning is required.</p>
<p>The third challenge is the development of a control module that can handle high speeds and allow driving along strategic and complex routes. In order to win a race, it is essential to have control technology that can realize the optimal path planning. In this competition, accurate data (true values) are provided as self-localization results so that participants can focus on vehicle control.</p>

<p>Specifically, the following points can be improved</p>
<ul>
<li>High-speed control: During a race, especially when driving at high speeds of around 200 km/h, vehicle control, including gear shifting, is very important. Driving at high speeds is very different from driving at low speeds, so more precise control is required.</li>
<li>Vehicle interface development: In this challenge, a specialized control module is required to be developed to enable driving at high speeds. This module must properly control the vehicle's accelerator, brake, and steering using a simulator that accurately simulates actual vehicle behavior.</li>
