A project like this from microsoft makes me sad that they killed Flight Simulator. It was such a quality product with a dedicated fan-base, and really could have used one final round of modernization to work better on current gen hardware.
Great work thus far, Shital. I’d love to work on the AirSim team with you. Where can I apply and what skills should I sharpen to achieve my goal?
Does AirSim provide a facility to obtain, augment, and simulate sensor signal noise for our algorithms?
What are the core objectives for building AirSim and what types of research projects will benefit most?
I'm the lead developer on the AirSim team. Please let us know if any questions!
Good job Shital and team. May I know what type of testing we can do with AirSim? is it perception control or MPC or something else?
