DARPA Grand Challenge Looks Good
museumpeace writes “News.com has posted its second story in a week on a hopeful Grand Challenge contender. Standford’s Stanley, a VW Taureg run by 100000 lines of code can hit 40 mph and has now traversed all but 3 miles of last year’s desert course without problems. A few days earlier, CMU’s Team Red announced that its Sandstorm, a modified Hummer, had run 200 miles without any problems though on a closed track. DARPA cut the field to 40 in June and will cut it to 20 before the race in October.”
