This paper explores the capabilities of AWS DeepRacer’s physical racetrack, examining the impact of hyperparameters on performance and object avoidance. Two experiments were conducted: Experiment I evaluated the effects of different hyperparameters, including gradient descent batch size, loss type, and training time settings, while Experiment II focused on object avoidance in the physical environment. The results show that models with higher gradient descent batch sizes performed better in simulations but preferred a batch size of 128 in the physical environment. Models using Huber loss outperformed those using MSE loss in both environments. However, object avoidance remained challenging when bringing simulated models to the real world.

AWS DeepRacer’s physical racetrack was tested to see how different settings affect its performance. The researchers changed things like how fast it learns and what kind of mistakes it makes. They also tried to get the robot to avoid objects while racing. The results showed that some settings made it better in simulations, but not as good in real life. It’s still hard for the robot to avoid objects in the physical environment.
