Bengaluru college showcases prototype driverless car in viral video

A video from Bengaluru’s RV College of Engineering (RVCE) showing a self-driving car cruising around campus has gone viral on social media, sparking fascination online.

The clip features Sri Satyatmatheertha Swamiji of Uttaradi Matha seated inside the vehicle as it operates autonomously. The seer had visited the college and took a brief ride to experience the technology first-hand.

According to reports, the vehicle is still in the testing and calibration stage, with engineers working on detailed mapping of Indian roads to fine-tune performance and safety features. A public unveiling is expected later this year.

The project is reportedly being developed under the WIRIN (Wipro–IISc Research and Innovation Network) a joint effort between Wipro, the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), and RV College of Engineering. The collaboration aims to push boundaries in artificial intelligence, robotics, and autonomous mobility through real-world innovation.
