Content

Part 01 : Computer Vision, Deep Learning, and Sensor Fusion

In this term, you'll first become an expert in applying Computer Vision and Deep Learning on automotive problems. You will teach the car to detect lane lines, predict steering angle, and more all based on just camera data!

Next, you'll learn Sensor Fusion, or how to use an array of sensor data to perceive the environment around the vehicle.

Part 02 : Localization, Path Planning, Control, and System Integration

In this term, you'll expand on your sensor knowledge to localize and control the vehicle. You'll evaluate sensor data from camera, radar, lidar, and GPS, and use these in closed-loop controllers that actuate the vehicle.

After that, you'll learn how to plan where the vehicle should go, and how the vehicle systems work together to get it there.

Part 04 (Elective): Autonomous Systems Interview

Start off with some tips on interviewing for an autonomous systems role, then watch how candidates approach their interview questions. Finish off by practicing some questions of your own!

Part 05 (Elective): Technical Interview Prep

Learn the skills technical interviewers expect you to know—efficiency, common algorithms, manipulating popular data structures, and how to explain a solution.
