RESOURCES FOR HOBBYIST AND EDUCATORS

Transform Transportation

Convert an e-bike or e-trike into a full-scale automated vehicle using circuit boards and open-source software.

Simulate Solutions

Use circuit boards with simulator software to safely test and experiment.

Autonomy at Scale

Experiment and explore autonomy with small RC vehicles.

AUTONOMOUS CONVERSION

Elcano Project Wiki
As an ongoing passion for cycling and improving environmental transportation solutions, Dr. Tyler Folsom started Micro-AV with the goal of providing eco-friendly autonomy that is cost-effective and reliably safe. As part of a personal commitment to environmental stewardship, Micro-AV created affordable hardware bridges for the purposes of connecting e-trikes and e-bikes to autonomous control systems.

SIMULATE FIDELITY

Open-Source Urban Driving Simulator - CARLA
Testing and developing an autonomous transportation solution requires patience, focus, but most importantly, a safe space to make mistakes. Our team worked within the CARLA simulator to test and develop autonomous solutions as well as develop a hardware bridge to connect simulation to reality.

AUTONOMY TO SCALE

MuSHR
Multi-agent System for non-Holonomic Racing (MuSHR) is an open-source, full-stack robotics platform created by the University of Washington to advance research of autonomous vehicles. Micro-AV plans to expand the vision and goals of the project to encompass a larger world by incorporating outdoor capabilities into the vehicles.
