[ros-users] [Discourse.ros.org] [General] Autonomous Vehicle Driving Competition using FPGA

[Takase Hideki]

Dear ROS community members,

**Are you interesting for ROS/robot with FPGA technology?**


We are currently planning an Autonomous Vehicle Driving Competition using FPGA. It will be held in the International Conference on Field-Programmable Technology (FPT). 
https://wwp.shizuoka.ac.jp/fpt-design-contest/

Although the robot car must be designed mainly on FPGAs, you can also use hardcore processors inside FPGAs (e.g., Xilinx Zynq, Intel Altera SoC) so that you can use a lot of ROS applications for your design. 

(*) Application and paper submission deadlines: September 15, 2018.
However, you can continuously develop your car until December 11, 2018. 
You still have much time for developing the robot car with ROS/FPGA!!

Could you try on the design competition?

If you have any questions, please send an e-mail to "watanabe.minoru[at]shizuoka.ac.jp". 
(Please substitute @ for [at]. This is the contact person of FPT2018 FPGA Design Competition Chair, Prof. Minoru Watanabe)

Sincerely,
