Development of Teaching Materials KaitCV for Learning Autonomous Driving Technology and Practice of Class

Educating engineers who can be involved in automobile development requires expertise in mechanical, electrical, and information systems. Until now, there has been specialized education in each field. However, there were few practical educational cases in which specialized fields were integrated into vehicles. In addition, there was no teaching material that could effectively and inexpensively teach each of “driving environment sensing,” “driving behavior generation,” and “vehicle motion control,” which are essential basic technologies for realizing autonomous driving. The purpose of this study is to develop “KaitCV”, an automatic driving learning support teaching material that uses simple and inexpensive teaching materials such as hobby cars, so that all students can practice the acquisition of automatic driving technology. In addition, I will explain that the educational practice was carried out using the developed teaching materials and that a high educational effect was obtained.
