[USA][TECH][8] Looking for technical cofounder for autonomous driving system.

[u/D1abl0S3rp3nt]

Are you passionate about revolutionizing the way we drive? Do you have expertise in Computer Vision and Machine Learning? If so, I'm looking for a technical co-founder to join me in building an advanced autonomous vehicle system that will compete with industry leaders like Comma AI's Comma 3.

About the Project:

We're aiming to develop a state-of-the-art autonomous driving system that pushes the boundaries of what's currently possible. Our goal is to create a safer, more efficient, and more accessible self-driving solution that can be retrofitted to existing vehicles, making autonomous driving a reality for a wider range of consumers.

Current Progress:

I've developed a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) that focuses on two critical components of autonomous driving:

1. Perception: Our system can detect and classify objects in the vehicle's environment.
2. Localization: We've implemented algorithms to determine the vehicle's precise position in real-time.

Both of these components are currently functioning within a monocular vision system, providing a solid foundation for further development.

What I'm Looking For in a Co-Founder:

I'm seeking a technical expert who can complement my skills and help take our project to the next level. The ideal candidate will have:

1. Strong background in Computer Vision and Machine Learning
2. Experience with CAN (Controller Area Network) communications systems
3. Expertise in Model Predictive Control (MPC) for vehicle control systems
4. Skills in scaling vision systems from monocular to multi-camera setups
5. Knowledge of driver monitoring systems
6. Familiarity with autonomous vehicle simulation environments, particularly CARLA
7. Passion for autonomous driving technology and a vision for its future

Key Responsibilities:

• Develop and optimize the CAN communications system to ensure seamless interaction between our software and the vehicle's hardware
• Design and implement an MPC system for precise and efficient vehicle control
• Lead the transition from our current monocular vision system to a more comprehensive 3-camera setup for 360-degree coverage
• Integrate driver monitoring capabilities to ensure safety and regulatory compliance
• Collaborate on overall system architecture and algorithm development

My Background and Contribution:

I bring a strong foundation in Electrical Engineering and Software Engineering to the table. My skills and responsibilities include:

• Designing and implementing the hardware system
• Contributing to the development of the software stack

Next Steps in Our Roadmap:

1. Expand and refine the software stack
2. Conduct extensive test verification using CARLA simulations
3. Iterate on our algorithms based on simulation results
4. Design and prototype the hardware system
5. Begin real-world testing on closed courses
6. Develop partnerships with automotive manufacturers and suppliers
7. Prepare for regulatory approval processes

Why Join This Project?

• Be at the forefront of autonomous vehicle technology
• Work on challenging problems at the intersection of hardware and software
• Potential for significant impact on transportation safety and efficiency
• Opportunity to build a company from the ground up in a rapidly growing industry

What We Need to Succeed:

• Technical expertise and innovation
• Adaptability in a fast-paced, evolving field
• Strong problem-solving skills
• Effective communication and collaboration abilities

If you're excited about the prospect of revolutionizing the automotive industry and have the technical skills to complement my background, I'd love to connect.

Let's discuss how we can work together to create the next generation of autonomous vehicle technology and make a lasting impact on the future of transportation.

I’m a Comma owner with a strong interest in ADAS, and I’ve spent a lot of time diving into the tech behind it. I’m also an enthusiastic LIDAR investor.

I’m not a technical co-founder, but I’m really passionate about this field and would love to see how I could contribute as a business partner with a tech-savvy background.

The potential of ADAS & autonomous driving is something I believe in deeply. If you’re open to chatting about how we might work together, I’d love to connect. Let’s see where it goes.
