Using satellite imagery or road schematic maps as "side information," the ViKiNG robot can plan its own miles-long route to a goal — measurably outperforming its strongest competitors, even when its side information is inaccurate or outdated.
New Airspeeder EXA pilot Fabio Tischler AKA @fabreezy has been training hard in our Speeder flight simulator, in preparation for his first-ever flight test in the field.

This study presents a simple approach to preparing a robust surface modified nickel-rich cathode material for Li-ion battery application. A detailed comparison of the importance of cathode and the present study to make a big difference in achieving the low-cost future battery are explained.
How can we make energy storage systems even better? We already have long lasting energy storage systems and high power energy storage systems. An ideal energy storage system should feature both high energy and high power. We explore how to make that possible.

Demonstrated at a small scale in the lab, this free-positioning wireless power transfer system offers a highly robust connection to moving receivers over a wide area using a "counter-intuitive" approach.
This research predicts the adaptive cruise control set speed profile in the user-defined range for the future time steps, optimizing the engine operating point (EOP) in real-time. The prediction of EOP was made by a deep learning model using all the parameters affecting the engine performance.
A novel mathematical approach for planning the autonomous vehicle motion in a constrained space
Alauda Aeronautics Embedded Software Engineer Florian Breut runs through the steps to validate the new control layouts: through simulation, smaller drones and then in full-scale integration with the Mk3C in flight and race testing environments.

Attention: Don’t presume human or model-generated labels to be the growth truth for machine learning deployment in autonomous vehicular systems.
Advances in software allow a customized car to perform controlled, autonomous drifting to enhance active safety and to give drivers the skills of professional racers.
In this episode, the Alauda engineering team implements improvements to our Global Navigation Satellite Systems or GNSS. What is GNSS? More popularly known as GPS, we need these navigation systems to track the exact positions of racing Alauda Mk3Cs.
