To teach an unmanned drone to distinguish and to skirt obstacles is a potentially crash test. But MIT engineers approached the organization of such training, on the other hand.
They have developed a new virtual reality training system for unmanned aerial vehicles, which allows the automation of the drone to "see" a rich, virtual environment during a flight in an empty physical space.

Now the training of autonomous drones is a physical task: Researchers are driving drones in large, closed ranges, in which they often hang large networks to catch a "lost" dron. They also create windows and doors through which the drone can learn to fly. And if it does not fit, then it turns out an accident, repair, and this is what delays development and adds a round sum to the cost of training.
Virtual realityallows you to "break" the drone as many times as you like. And this does not affect the cost of tests and training. Plus, the speed of training increases.
The management of marine research by the US and NVIDIA Corporation has already invested in this development.
