Open source Self-driving software

OPEN-SOURCE, THE FUTURE OF AUTONOMY

Welcome to Project Aslan, the home of open-source autonomous software for low-speed applications. Join us as a developer, development partner or strategic partner and help the citizens of the world's cities to enjoy the benefits of autonomous mobility sooner.

WHAT IS ASLAN AUTONOMY?

OPEN-SOURCE AUTONOMY

Project Aslan is focused on low-speed applications of autonomous vehicles. Low-speed means lower risk, and lower technology boundaries to launching commercially viable autonomous services.

OPEN AUTONOMOUS DATA

The ASLAN partners aim to share as much data on autonomous testing as we possibly can. Many of the collaborators are testing real autonomous vehicles running Aslan code, meaning that we can all learn faster, together.

FULLY SUPPORTED SIMULATION

Develop your code faster through simulation.

The Project Aslan software stack is supported by Gazebo simulation, allowing for a fast development workflow from start to finish.

INSPIRED BY

Project Aslan has been inspired by and was built on top of the Autoware Foundation’s open-source projects. In particular, a number of fundamental technologies have been adopted from Autoware.AI. With StreetDrone’s customisations for its electric vehicle and integration with other third-party drivers, project Aslan immensely benefits from the Autoware’s projects and the Autoware Foundation members’ contributions.
