Of course. In addition to AutoSD being used in several other open source communities (Eclipse SDV, SOAFEE, Autoware) it is of strong interest to other transportation entities - think trains, farming equipment - as well as robotics applications. To my knowledge no one has deployed it on an RC car but there is no reason not to. We had some discussions internally a few years ago about f1tenth. It would have to be a community effort, though.

Sounds good, thanks, we can definitely use a meeting room.
I would call this less a regression and more a response to the
community's expressed preference. Meeting attendance has declined significantly - we aren't having those discussions in the automotive SIG, which we started before things like Eclipse SDV existed. I would love to reel them back in. One reason we wanted to move this meeting to Matrix is to encourage further communication, as many people have conflicts for a physical meeting who would otherwise be able to attend one on chat. Also willing to move the time around, but every time is bad for someone.
In regard to the other questions about where people are talking and
where we should introduce AutoSD, let's cover that in next week's meeting :)
Is there yet a way for people to do something with AutoSD that doesn't involve being an automaker? Like affordable RC cars or something like that? It's rather hard to hold a community together that can't do anything...
