Obstacle Avoidance

    Obstacle avoidance is the task of satisfying some control objective subject to non-intersection or non-collision position constraints. In autonomous vehicles, it is a hot topic. What is critical about obstacle avoidance concept in this area is the growing need of usage of autonomous vehicle vehicles in urban areas. Normally obstacle avoidance is considered to be distinct from path planning in that one is usually implemented as a reactive control law while the other involves the pre-computation of an obstacle-free path which a controller will then guide a robot along.

    About us

    Elektra is an autonomous vehicle project developed by research groups from the CVC research center and the UAB and UPC universities.

    Our main objectives are boosting the research in self-driving technology and forming highly qualified engineers.

    Our vision

    We imagine cities with a centralized mobility system to move safely, comfortably, saving energy and minimizing congestion. The city controls a fleet of automated vehicles that cooperate among them and with the city infrastructure.

    Funding

    Our funding mainly comes from public competitive and technological transfer projects.

    We would like to acknowledge to the Spanish project TRA2014-57088-C2-1-R and NVIDIA for the donated hardware.
