Self-Driving Cars Specialization
Overview
University of Toronto's 4-course specialisation on autonomous vehicle development — covering state estimation, visual perception, motion planning, and the full AV software stack.
Full Description
The Self-Driving Cars Specialization from the University of Toronto is the gold standard online curriculum for understanding the full autonomous vehicle software stack. The four courses cover: State Estimation and Localisation (Kalman filters, SLAM, GPS), Visual Perception (camera models, depth estimation, object detection), Mission Planning (route planning, behaviour prediction, motion planning), and a Capstone where you implement a self-driving pipeline in the CARLA simulator. The program provides deep insight into how companies like Waymo and Tesla approach the perception, planning, and control problems that underlie full autonomy.
