About Us

Mission

Duckietown started as a class at MIT in 2016. Now it is offering worldwide a free platform to instructors, professionals, students and researchers for cutting-edge robotics and A.I. teaching, training, and research.

Our goal is to repeat the succesful examples of MIT, ETH Zürich and Université de Montréal in training students, by making use of the Duckietown platform in our MSc in AIDL (Artificial Intelligence & Deep Learning). Motivated students/researchers with genuine interest in A.I. in supporting autonomy are welcome to be involved in preparing scenarios!
