RT Conference Proceedings T1 Driving Cars by Means of Genetic Algorithms A1 Sáez Achaerandio, Yago A1 Pérez, Diego A1 Sanjuan, Óscar A1 Isasi, Pedro AB The techniques and the technologies supporting Automatic Vehicle Guidance are an important issue. Automobile manufacturers view automatic driving as a very interesting product with motivating key features which allow improvement of the safety of the car, reducing emission or fuel consumption or optimizing driver comfort during long journeys. Car racing is an active research field where new advances in aerodynamics, consumption and engine power are critical each season. Our proposal is to research how evolutionary computation techniques can help in this field. As a first goal we want to automatically learn to drive, by means of genetic algorithms, optimizing lap times while driving through three different circuits.
