Boston Dynamics' robot dog hold the starting flag on the grid of the Indy Autonomous Challenge race at the Indianapolis Speedway in Indianapolis on October 23, 2021. There will be cars on the track on October 23, 2021 at the famous Indianapolis racetrack, but no driver in them; that won't stop the cars, in autonomous driving, from reaching 250 km/h, a new stage in the development of driverless vehicles.
Nine single-seaters will be at the start of the Indy Autonomous Challenge, a competition endowed with one million dollars, whose objective is clear, “to prove that autonomous technology can work in extreme conditions”, explains Paul Mitchell, from ESN, co-organizer of the event.
