AI-Trained Vehicles Can Adjust to Extreme Turbulence on the Fly

Caption

In experiments, the team of researchers from Caltech and Nvidia used the large cylinder shown here to create turbulence under high wind speeds and then studied FALCON’s response using the airfoil wing system outfitted with nine sensors and a load cell to measure lift. This image, taken in a different wind tunnel with smoke for visualization purposes, was obtained at significantly lower flow speed than the actual experiments.
