SAE International (SAE) and General Motors (GM) have established the AutoDrive Challenge™, a student competition focusing on autonomous vehicles. This event is a three-year competition, started in 2017, to develop and demonstrate a full autonomous driving passenger vehicle. The technical goal of the competition is to navigate an urban driving course in an automated driving mode as described by SAE Standard (J3016) level 4 definition by year three.
