Autonomous driving through very dense dynamic traffic, with extremely tight-complex-stochastic traffic-dynamics on sub-urban roads, connecting to an open ground, with absolutely zero traffic-rules. This is the most heavily cluttered environment where we have tested our #autonomousdriving technology, presenting many of the adversarial negotiation scenarios as well, throughout the autonomous navigation task. This demo was done at the Mata Baglamukhi Madir campus in the city of Nalkheda, in MP, India, and was done in the presence of heavy police forces deployed that day on the ground, as can be seen in our demo. Our autonomous vehicle starts from the temple with a generic open environment, with zero traffic rules, with very narrow corridors created out of barricades for vehicles movement by the security forces. In the corridor no two vehicles can pass through at the same time, and our vehicle was tasked with driving through this corridor, while negotiating its way from any traffic, two-wheelers, or pedestrians it faces, with dense presence of bikes and cars on either side, presenting a very challenging environment for #autonomousvehicles. The vehicle exits the open area, and then assumes generic dual lane navigation, avoiding both static and dynamic obstacles, before encountering a police check-post, where the vehicle is supposed to wait if the barricade is closed, and proceed if open. Upon exiting the checkpost, the vehicle negotiates a traffic-intersection with stochastic and adversarial driving behaviour of other vehicles on the road. Our vehicle continuously faced heavily cluttered traffic scene, where entities on the road can execute a random driving pattern, making the decision making task very challenging. We did the demo over a period of two days, successfully executing multiple (30+) trials in this setting. This demo was again a culmination of our prior works and demos: Kankali Kali Mata demo, on-roads, bidirectional negotiation capability on single lane roads, and open environment Level-5 negotiation capability as showcased in our Toll-Plaza demo. We again scaled up classical decision making and motion planning algorithmic framework, to adapt to such a level of density of obstacles on the road. This framework is further being scaled up with #reinforcementlearning and unsupervised #deeplearning at Swaayatt Robots. We will again do a demo in the month of June here, showcasing autonomously acquired skills to pave the way for Level-5 autonomous driving, and to solve the Level-4 autonomy problem by the end of 2024. #MachineLearning

Autonomous driving through extremely-tight-dynamic environments with complex, stochastic, and adversarial traffic-dynamics, or simply through an absolute chaos, on sub-urban unstructured roads in India. This kind of traffic and environment has never been attempted in the history of #autonomousdriving. There were no traffic-rules to abide by on this road, other than to perform a left-sided avoidance, if the other obstacles follow the same, else the vehicle will have to change its plan in a stochastic manner, in several of the adversarial multi-agent negotiation settings encountered throughout the autonomous navigation. This demos tested our motion planning and decision making framework to its limits, showcasing its robustness in negotiating such traffic-dynamics with ease. This demo was done on mostly a very narrow road, suited mostly for one-way navigation, but as is customary in India, bidirectional traffic is active on such narrow roads. It can be seen throughout navigation that the incoming vehicles didn't allow any gaps for our #AutonomousVehicles, forcing it to negotiate passively-aggressively its own path through the chaos. Furthermore, obstacles overtaking us didn't follow any rules either, and zig-zagged and moved in crisscross fashion, challenging our motion and behaviour planning software, which negotiated all such scenarios with ease. There were only two points where our vehicle came to halt, when two girls on a two-wheeler didn't stop and just kept on navigating, despite our vehicle being closer to the narrow passage and it having the right of way, and despite a bike being parked over there by someone, making it a very challenging scenario both for the humans and for the decision making autonomous agent(s). This demo was done in the Awadhpuri area, on the Durga Mata road. This framework was last shown in relatively much sparser traffic in our Kankali Kali Mata demo last month. It is being scaled further with deep unsupervised and #reinforcementlearning , and in the coming weeks, it will play a critical role in our endeavour to solving the Level-4 autonomy problem by the end of the year. This kind of traffic negotiation has never been attempted by any autonomous driving company ever. While a 90-degree turn is usually discussed as a corner case in the West, our autonomous vehicle negotiated a blind 90-degree corner, with traffic, with ease. #deeplearning #MachineLearning Swaayatt Robots

Presenting autonomous driving in complex, stochastic and adversarial traffic-dynamics, on the roads in #India. Over the course of last year, we enabled #autonomousdriving in conditions and in situations no one in the autonomous driving industry considered was possible, and in a country like India, where the contemporary belief was that #autonomousvehicles are an impossibility. With the closure of 2023, we present autonomous driving at a very large scale, in the city of Bhopal in India. In this demo our autonomous vehicle at Swaayatt Robots can be seen negotiating the surrounding traffic with ease, where it had to deal with their stochastic and adversarial driving patterns, like suddenly switching lanes and appearing all of a sudden in our vehicle's current driving lane, without adherence to the traffic rules. This demo was a culmination of the cutting-edge research we have been doing, and the technologies we have been developing, over the years, which we showcased throughout in our demos in 2023 -- campus autonomous driving (February), off-roads autonomous driving (April and September), tight-stochastic traffic negotiation (August and September), bidirectional traffic negotiation on a single lane road (October), large-scale city level demo (November), and Toll-Plaza negotiation (December). In 2024, we will scale our technology commercially, and bring it to North America and Europe, to topple this trillion dollar industry, and will also scale our technology throughout India.

Autonomous vehicle learning to dodge traffic, performing stochastic adversarial negotiation. On 27th August we had representatives from the Suzuki Motor Corporation's autonomous department, Genki Maeda (Department Manager, AD Platform Development), Karachi Nobunari (Department General Manager, Advance Technology Development Department) and Ronit Kumar (Suzuki Innovation Center) visit us to test our #autonomousdriving technology. This was a high-stakes demo, where we asked our engineering team (including the founder, Sanjeev Sharma) to ride two wheeler and to cut the path of our autonomous vehicle at random / at will, in a live demo, creating an adversarial scenario, where it is the sole responsibility of our autonomous vehicle to dodge obstacles and prevent accidents. Over the years, we have been building autonomous driving technology to enable negotiation of adversarial-complex-stochastic traffic dynamics. This demo is only a short trailer of what is being developed and what is going to come next. We made the vehicle first negotiate randomly placed static vehicles, bikes and cones on the road. Then in the next section of the road, our engineering team started cutting the path of autonomous vehicle at random, and let it take care of obstacles avoidance and negotiation, balancing aggressiveness and passivity. These algorithmic frameworks are being scaled up to achieve Level-4 and Level-5 autonomous driving, in the most complex of traffic situations imaginable in the world for #autonomousvehicles, i.e., Indian traffic on Indian roads, to conquer this space globally. The speed of the vehicle was kept low in this demo, keeping in mind the safety of the guests. The core motion planning and decision making algorithm in the demo utilized one #reinforcementlearning agent. There is going to be another demo on similar lines next week, on an extended stretch of a road. #deeplearning #India

Autonomous driving and obstacles avoidance at drift speeds, challenging the limits of what is possible! In this demo, our vehicle can be seen performing #autonomousdriving at very high speeds, causing it to both skid and drift at turns, while also avoiding obstacles. At such speeds, given the inherent dynamics of the vehicle platform used, it is very easy for the vehicle to topple. The #reinforcementlearning based motion planning and decision making framework that is being demoed here is tasked with ensuring obstacles avoidance without compromising on the speed, to an extent possible, and to drive the vehicle as fast as possible. This is evident towards the end of the video, where it can be seen that our vehicle avoided static obstacles while drifting.This demonstrates the level of sophistication and agility in our framework to ensure proper control of the #autonomousvehicles at high-speeds. The use cases are many; to begin with, our generic off-roads autonomous driving research focuses on enabling autonomous navigation in previously unknown and unseen environments, while ensuring mathematical completeness guarantees. Such agility can also help on-road autonomous vehicles to deal with unforeseeable corner cases or sudden appearance of obstacles in its tracks, at high-speeds. Our underlying research at Swaayatt Robots is still far from over, and over the next 3-4 months, we will be demonstrating abstract representation being learned by our multi-RL agents based framework (under progress) to ensure computation of the cost of the terrain without any labelled data, where multiple agents learn to control / regulate different aspects of autonomous navigation, to ensure safe and robust navigation, both on- and off-roads. All the people on the ground, who participated in the demo, were trained safety professionals. #deeplearning #MachineLearning #Robotics

In this demo we extend our prior work on obstacles avoidance at aggressive speeds, showcasing our Thar based autonomous vehicle navigating at near drift speeds, progressing towards our endeavour of Level-5 autonomy. Our autonomous vehicle at Swaayatt Robots was tasked with avoidance of traffic cones on the road, placed in a zig-zag fashion, at aggressive speeds. The location of the marked cones was not known to the planner beforehand. The #autonomousdriving task, i.e., motion planning (time parametrized trajectory computation) and decision making, was made even more challenging by restricting the AI agents to not act on obstacles unless they are within 24m radius. Level-5 #autonomousvehicles should be able to react quickly to overtake, or to avoid, any sudden unforeseeable obstacle or pedestrian on the road to avoid fatalities -- a capability demonstrated by our novel motion planning and decision making algorithmic framework over here. Our previous demo showcased our Bolero based platform consistently keeping speeds beyond 45 KMPH for most part, slowing down to only 39 KMPH at one point. Given Thar has lesser body roll, our framework successfully kept speeds well above 47 KMPH (even at the points of avoidance of obstacles), with speeds reaching as high as 55 KMPH. A typical human driver would feel uncomfortable at speeds beyond 40 KMPH in such as scenario. The entire algorithmic framework with 5 classical (one #reinforcementlearning-) agents , runs at 800+ Hz on a regular i7 processor, single thread. This algorithmic framework is being further scaled up with end-to-end deep reinforcement learning, and will be showcased in the month of March. #deeplearning #machinelearning #motionplanning
