Swaayatt demos autonomous driving at 52 km/h on mountain roads, self-recovers after skid

Sanjeev of Swaayatt demonstrated their end-to-end trained autonomous vehicle Deep Xplorer navigating a mountainous road at up to 52 km/h — close to the 40-48 km/h human drivers take blind turns at. Around the 5:49 mark the car skidded off the lane onto a grassy shoulder; the founder instinctively touched the wheel but applied no torque as the vehicle stabilized itself. The goal is for world models that understand rollover dynamics to exceed 80 km/h on straights and eventually achieve safe Level-5 autonomous driving.
