itself around a predefined path. Utilizing a LiDAR laser scanner to observe the car’s environment, we generate a map and algorithmically guide the car through the racecourse. We utilize ROS (Robot Operating System) packages as a means to integrate our LiDAR laser scan data with the Hector SLAM (Simultaneously Localisation and Mapping) algorithm to simultaneously localize and map the location of the RC car. Using these maps, we implement our path planning algorithm (pure pursuit) and machine learning
