Event Outline
Tournament concept
As a new technology field called CASE becomes the center of competition in the automobile industry, there is a shortage of AI and IT engineers, and the need for them is rapidly increasing throughout the automobile industry.
As a new initiative to discover and develop engineers who will lead the automotive industry in the future, we will hold an international competition to compete in AI technology for autonomous driving.
Using this competition, which is held in cooperation between industry, government, and academia, as a starting point, we aim to build a framework that will contribute to the further development of the automobile industry.
