Technology, take the wheel!

Have you heard about autonomous cars? The new incoming technology is going to change our future on the roads. Systems have evolved so much in the last few years, that we do not know if our next generations will need drivers licenses. Do you wonder how they perceive traffic signs and other road users Do you want to be one of the lucky few to see what autonomous cars do “under the hood”?

If you wonder how self-driving cars work or if you are eager to learn new things, then our summer course is perfect for you! Join us and 22 ambitious students from all over Europe between 11th and 18th of July 2018 in one of the most beautiful cities in Europe, Ljubljana. Each summer course is attended by technology students like you, who have something in common: they want to live a unique experience, different from day-to-day school life!

In one week in Ljubljana you will learn how autonomous cars navigate, distinguish between different visual road elements and also see the ethics of autonomous vehicles.

To make sure that you know how to survive in Slovenia, we made you a Survival Guide! There you will find a lot of useful information, so you better check it!
