04. Running the Simulator

Running the Simulator

When you first run the simulator, you’ll see a configuration screen asking what size and graphical quality you would like. We suggest running at the smallest size and the fastest graphical quality.
We also suggest closing most other applications (especially graphically intensive applications) on your computer, so that your machine can devote its resources to running the simulator.

Training Mode

The next screen gives you two options: Training Mode and Autonomous Mode.

Select Training Mode.

The simulator will load and you will be able to drive the car like it’s a video game. Try it!

You'll use autonomous mode in a later step, after you've used the data you collect here to train your neural network.
