The Roborace series will provide a “competitive platform for the autonomous driving solutions being developed”, it said.<\/p>\n

The races will take place on the same circuits in major cities used by Formula E.<\/p>\n

Many traditional carmakers are developing autonomous vehicles.<\/p>\n

“Roborace is an open challenge to the most innovative scientific and technology-focused companies in the world,” said Formula E chief executive Alejandro Agag.<\/p>\n

Denis Sverdlov, founder of Kinetik, which is a partner in the initiative, said: “We passionately believe that, in the future, all of the world’s vehicles will be assisted by AI and powered by electricity, thus improving the environment and road safety.”<\/p>\n

“Roborace is a celebration of revolutionary technology and innovation that humanity has achieved in that area so far.”<\/p>\n

One of the teams will be organised as a crowdsourced community team which, organisers said, would be open to both experts and hobbyists.<\/p>\n

Formula E has been operating for two years and has become well-known for crowdsourcing initiatives such as allowing fans to vote to give their favourite driver a boost during races.<\/p>\n

London’s Formula E race is due to take place in Battersea Park in June next year but faces opposition from local residents.<\/p>\n
