Calibrate and test - DeepRacer on AWS

Calibrate and test

Before deploying a model, calibrate the vehicle’s steering and throttle through the AWS DeepRacer console.

  1. In the console, choose Vehicle, then choose Calibration.

  2. Follow the on-screen instructions to set the steering center, maximum left, and maximum right values.

  3. Set the throttle minimum, maximum, and stopped values.

To deploy and test a reinforcement learning model:

  1. In the console, choose Models and upload a model trained using the DeepRacer on AWS solution. Custom cars built using this guide are fully compatible with models trained in the DeepRacer on AWS solution — no retraining is required.

  2. Choose the uploaded model, and then choose the Start vehicle button.

  3. Place the vehicle on your track and observe autonomous driving behavior.

For further customization options and community support, see the AWS DeepRacer Community custom car repository on the GitHub website.
