Research abstract
Overland AI is a software company that provides off-road ground autonomy software stackĀin a product called Overdrive. We hypothesize thatĀsafe autonomous operation of an unmanned follower vehicle can only be accomplished successfully with technology that supports fully autonomous maneuver through complex environments.ĀOverland AIÆs goal for Phase I is to demonstrate reliable autonomous convoy with a single uncrewedĀfollower vehicle using Overdrive as the autonomy stack while navigating less-than-ideal road conditions.???????
