Autonymi AI for self-driving and self-programming systems by IIT Alumni Council's AI Knowledge Platform

Autonymi AI Platform

The IIT Alumni Council’s AI Knowledge Platform has developed Autonymi AI, a state-of-the-art initiative focused on self-driving and self-programming systems. This platform aims to advance autonomous technologies with capabilities for vehicles and machines to independently navigate complex environments and dynamically modify their own programming for improved performance.

Autonymi AI: Core Features

  • Autonomous Navigation: The platform integrates multiple sensor inputs such as LiDAR, cameras, GNSS, and inertial measurement units (IMUs) to enable real-time perception and navigation for self-driving vehicles, tailored to challenging Indian road conditions and diverse environments.
  • Self-Programming Capability: Autonymi AI includes modules for self-programming algorithms where the system can adapt its control and decision-making code based on operational feedback and changing conditions, effectively optimizing itself on-the-fly.
  • AI Stack Development: The IIT Alumni Research Institute, part of the IIT Alumni Council ecosystem, supports teams building full autonomous driving stacks including simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM), path planning, perception, and control.

Applications and Impact

Autonymi AI is powering multiple autonomous vehicle prototypes, including electric driverless shuttles and campus vehicles (e.g., IIT Madras ‘Bolt’ driverless cart), focusing on safety, efficiency, and usability[5]. The platform leverages deep research from IITs and aligns industry partnerships for deploying these systems in real-world scenarios across India and potentially globally.

Team and Ecosystem

The development is supported by IIT Alumni Research Institute’s extensive network of experts and industry collaborators, combining talents in AI, robotics, machine learning, and engineering from various IIT campuses to accelerate innovation in autonomous systems.

Our journey

The AI Knowledge Platform is a visionary initiative that seeks to catapult India to global leadership in artificial intelligence by fostering innovation, research, and development. By harnessing the power of AI, we aim to build a robust ecosystem that drives nation-building and addresses pressing societal challenges.
Our platform is built on deep tech research-based AI solutions, developed in collaboration with esteemed technology institutes, government R&D labs and global AI thought leaders. This synergy enables us to push the boundaries of AI applications and create impactful solutions.
Our AI platforms span multiple areas, including Gen AI for book authoring, Amat AI for novel materials discovery, and Honesty AI for public office holders. Additionally, we are working on Mapping AI for 3D automated map generation, Autonymi AI for self-driving and self-programming systems, Health AI for human body digital twins, and Weather AI for predictive weather updates.
These cutting-edge platforms are designed to transform industries and revolutionize the way we live and work. By leveraging AI, we can unlock new opportunities for growth, innovation, and progress. Our goal is to position India as a global AI leader, driving economic growth, social development, and technological advancement. Through this initiative, we aspire to create a better future for all, powered by the limitless potential of artificial intelligence.
