AWS announces new competition structure for the 2023 Season

Today, AWS launches the 2023 season of the award-winning AWS DeepRacer League - where developers of all skill levels advance their knowledge of machine learning (ML) and compete in the world’s first global autonomous racing league!

Starting March 1st, developers have more chances to earn achievements and win prizes than ever before with an all new three-tier competition. In the past, developers competed globally to win a spot in the World Championship. Now developers have the opportunity to compete with their peers in national and regional races for a spot in the World Championship, a trip to re:Invent in Las Vegas, and the $43,000 prize purse.

Form March through October, the top 10% of competitors from each country’s monthly race will receive $50 to purchase AWS DeepRacer merchandise on amazon.com, while the top developer in each of the 6 regions (Europe, Greater China, Middle East and Africa, North America, South America) will also win a trip to the World Championship at re:Invent 2023 in Las Vegas. Top developers in season standings at regional and world levels (based on total accumulated points) will also win trips to the World Championship at re:Invent in Las Vegas.

Developers will also have the ability to earn up to four achievements monthly at national, regional, and world levels that they can share on social media to celebrate their learning & racing milestones.

Start racing today - it could be YOU hoisting the AWS DeepRacer Championship Cup in Las Vegas this year!
