DARPA Grand Challenge Teams Submit Videos to DARPA

Posted by timothy on from the film-at-11-in-some-timezone dept.

doughnuthole writes "The deadline for DARPA Grand Challenge teams to submit their videos to DARPA just passed and some have posted them online. Some of the teams with these videos posted are Team Caltech, Axion Racing, Virginia Tech (on the Media page), Insight Racing, and UMass Dartmouth. The Grand Challenge is a 175 mile race run by fully autonomous vehicles. Since no teams completed the 2004 race, DARPA decided to run it again, this time for $2 million."

    Oh go away.

    Your post is like petulant child whining that they lost their favourite toy.

    You obviously haven't put any thought into a auto driving systems. Besides the challenge isn't about driving vehicles down a straight smooth piece of highway.

    I have invented a rudimentary operating system called Lunix.

    It is currently only a kernel without any mentionable desktop-abilities, and the graphical things are pretty ugly, but apart from exploits in the memory-manager, the graphic-libraries, the network-layer and the browser (Foxfire) it is said to be almost as secure as Windows XP AOL Edition.

    Will I get the money?
