Self-Driving Autonomous Car
Abstract
The objective of the project is to create a self-driving autonomous car in a 15 person team. The car utilizes several components and sensors in order to get from Point A to Point B. Implementation of the car involves multiple SJONE processor boards using FreeRTOS to communicate with each other via CAN bus.

Schedule
Show a simple table or figures that show your scheduled as planned before you started working on the project. Then in another table column, write down the actual schedule so that readers can see the planned vs. actual goals. The point of the schedule is for readers to assess how to pace themselves if they are doing a similar project.
