Pada tulisan sebelumnya saya menulis "Auto Pilot Car Computer" dan sekarang saya melanjutkan ketulisan mobil balap tanpa pengemudi. Mobil tanpa sopir juga bisa dijadikan tontonan dalam ajang balap. Kejuaraannya pun dengan nama "Roborace Championship", untuk digelar di sirkuit internasional Formula E mulai seri 2016-2017.
Nvidia PX 2 Dengan Prosesor 12 Core
Mengutip Tech Radar, mobil-mobil balap tanpa sopir tersebut nantinya bakal diotaki super komputer PX 2 bikinan Nvidia. Pertama kali diperkenalkan dalam ajang CES 2016 di Las Vegas, AS, awal Januari lalu, PX 2 diperkuat prosesor 12-core yang mampu menghasilkan daya komputasi sebesar 24 triliun penghitungan per detik.
Kemampuan yang menurut Nvida setara dengan 150 komputer Apple MacBook Pro itu bakal dipakai untuk memproses program Artificial Intelligence (AI) pengemudi mobil.
Super-komputer yang ukurannya hanya sebesar kotak makan siang ini juga mampu memproses aneka macam informasi dari berbagai sensor yang tertanam di mobil, termasuk radar, kamera, GPS, dan peta resolusi tinggi.
Mobil Balap Tanpa Pengemudi Tembus Kecepatan 300km/jam
Mobil-mobil tanpa sopir dalam kejuaraan Roborace sendiri menggunakan listrik sebagai sumber tenaganya, dan mampu mencapai kecepatan hingga 300 kilometer per jam. Rancangannya dikerjakan oleh Daniel Simon yang juga berperan di film sci-fifuturistik, Tron: Legacy.
Masing-masing tim bakal ikut serta dengan sepasang mobil tanpa sopir. Karena memakai komponen yang sama, satu-satunya faktor yang bisa memengaruhi kinerja balap adalah perbedaan pada software.

Driverless Cars are Going to Turn Formula E Into a Giant Scalextric
Earlier today, Formula E and Kinetik announced a partnership that will introduce driverless races to the Formula E Championship. The series of races, named Roborace, will appear in the form of support races before the main driver championship. Roborace will use the same circuits in the major cities around the world, and feature 10 teams with two cars each. The races will be two hours in duration.
Although there are no images of the cars just yet, you can expect them to be similar in size and appearance to the current Formula E cars. They'll compete using real-time computing algorithms and artificial intelligence. All vehicles in the race will be identical mechanically, ensuring the race is decided by software brilliance, rather than engineering know-how.
When questioned on whether potential viewers will the personalities in motorsport, Alejandro Agag, CEO of Formula E said he expects the software engineers to become the sport's personalities, and of course, it's mandatory that each car will have a name.
Developments to Affect Road Cars
There have been no teams announced either, but Denis Sverdlov, founder of Kinetik, said we can expect OEMs which have a vested interest in autonomous driving [such as Volvo, Ford, or Audi] as well as technology companies [including Googleor NVIDIA]. Although one team will be an entirely crowd-sourced entry.
Sverdlov told tech radar, that we can expect to see technology filter into future road cars, "Everything we do here could be used in the road car. Everything about the battery, everything about machine vision and vehicle to vehicle communications. "Even something like a standard telecoms infrastructure could also be improved for online video and entertainment. A number of aspects in the developments we make will go into normal cars."
Looking forward to the prospect of a driverless race? You won't have long to wait, Sverdlov says he has, "a date in mind, but we don't want to announce it yet, because we need to approach teams and discuss their commitment. But we hope to be race-ready in season three, which is 2016/2017.
"We have a prototype, not a sports car, but it functions. It has all the components, such as batteries, motors, electronics, it's all there. We also have the computer vision. But there are still many challenges when travelling at super-high speeds, one of the biggest is the positioning, because GPS just isn't good enough at these speeds.
"It's going to be challenging, but we really feel that all of those technologies are almost there, so it's take too much time to make it happen."
