About

What is autoware?

Autoware is the world's leading open-source software project for autonomous driving, built on the Robot Operating System (ROS). It offers a complete software stack for self-driving vehicles, encompassing essential functions from localization and object detection to route planning and control. The project aims to foster open innovation in autonomous driving technology by enabling individuals and organizations to contribute. Autoware provides different repositories for core functionalities, experimental features, and documentation, ensuring a structured approach to development and usage. While Autoware.AI, its previous version, has reached end-of-life, the project strongly recommends transitioning to Autoware Core/Universe for future use.
