In an era where humans constantly look over their shoulders at the threat of artificial technology, Hong Kong electric racing fans will be able to see just how far robots have come at the HKT Hong Kong E-Prix on Sunday.

Revolutionary autonomous vehicle company Roborace is in town to put on a human v machine race and returned to the garage very confident after tests and demonstrations this morning.

“It went really well,” said Roborace digital content director, Roberto Kusabbi. “The human v machine demonstration was really to show and accelerate the advancement of autonomous technology, which we all know is the future of cars on our roads in the next five years.”

The team of 30-odd brought two of their “DevBots” to the city – development cars used to test soft and hardware with the capacity to hold a person inside.
