One of the great joys of teaching self-driving cars at Udacity is watching the amazing things our students build. I’m based in Silicon Valley, but our students come from all over the world, and I have the opportunity on a daily basis to experience the truly global nature of this transportation revolution.

Case in point: Flux Auto.

One of our Udacity self-driving car graduates, Shilpaj Bhalerao, is the tech lead for a small team building self-driving trucks in India. This is no small feat. India is even more of a challenge for self-driving cars than other parts of the world, due to the complexity of traffic norms, and the infrastructure quality. So it’s super-exciting to watch their 10km autonomous trucking run in action.

Check it out.

No matter where you are in the world, if your dream is to contribute to the future of autonomous transportation, then you can acquire the skills you need with Udacity. Check out our School of Autonomous Systems today.
