Startup says end-to-end machine learning is “only scalable solution” for self-driving cars
It’s a solution that Tesla CEO Elon Musk would approve. No lidars, no high-definition maps. No hand-coded rules. A small startup in Cambridge, U.K. taught a car to drive itself in a simulated environment before unleashing it on the road equipped only with cameras and your average satellite navigation system. The result: a self-driving car that could navigate complex new environments in a day.
