We’re very happy with our run on Course C today. In this course the vehicle runs loop after loop in a housing area, and other cars (driven by stunt drivers) interact with it at four-way stops. The robot got stuck once, requiring an intervention — our lead programmer had to restart one of our processes. We’re still assessing the cause of the problem. But overall the vehicle behaved very nicely.
Tomorrow morning we’re back on in Course A. This is the one that is grinding up lots of cars — besides our accident, there have been several others there. We’ve been investing a lot of time tuning our code for that test.
