Waterloo’s student-led autonomous vehicle team placed second in the final stage of the four-year international SAE AutoDrive Challenge.
The challenge, which ended last month, had teams convert a stock Chevrolet Bolt EV into a fully autonomous vehicle.
WATonomous completed the last leg of the competition with its best results to date, improving on the team’s third-place finish in the third year of the competition.
During the challenge, WATonomous supported 12 Waterloo Engineering Capstone Design projects and collaborated with research groups such as the Mechatronics Vehicle Systems Lab and Autonomoose.
