RoboRacer (F1TENTH)

This course introduces the fundamentals of autonomous driving using the F1TENTH RoboRacer platform.
Students learn perception, planning, and control algorithms through hands-on labs and real-world racing challenges.

Course Overview

• ROS2-based autonomous system development
• LiDAR processing and safety (AEB, Gap Follow)
• SLAM, localization, and mapping
• Reinforcement-learning-based look-ahead controller
• F1TENTH Race: time attack & obstacle racing

Course Materials

• 📘 Lecture slides and reading notes
• 🧪 Labs: Teleop, AEB, GapFollow, Pure Pursuit, SLAM, RL-based control
• 🛞 Race evaluation sheets and scoring rules
• 📦 GitHub resources (simulation & ROS2 packages)
