THE TII IN ABU DHABI TAKES A STEP INTO THE FUTURE WITH SELF-DRIVING RACE CAR

  • 04/03/2022

Abu Dhabi: While the UAE Capital is a motorsports mecca, hosting the Formula One Grand Prix, Abu Dhabi's Technology Innovation Institute (TII) has taken a significant step forward in autonomous robotics by competing in world-class self-driving car events. 


TII, Abu Dhabi's Advanced Technology Research Council's (ATRC) applied research pillar, cooperated with Sweden's EuroRacing to improve the software and controls of the autonomous race car, or an F1 car without a driver.

Team TII EuroRacing set the pace in the CES 2022 – the world's first head-to-head high-speed self-driving car competition, held in January at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Also, last October, the Team TII EuroRacing was part of history as nine teams from 21 universities competed at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway for the $1 million Indy Autonomous Challenge (IAC).
