| Stanford robot car "Junior" in action, DARPA Urban Challenge |
 |
Yesterday, a Volkswagen Passat drove around a
parking lot in Mountain View, CA, made
three-point turns, and followed the rules at
a four-way stop--all without human
intervention. The computer-controlled car is
named Junior, and it's Stanford University's
official entry in the DARPA Urban Challenge,
a race in which an autonomous car must
navigate city streets, obey traffic laws,
avoid obstructions, and, crucially, drive
well among other cars in traffic. This test
run is Junior's first public appearance,
designed to let DARPA (the Defense Advanced
Research Projects Agency) test the car and
determine if it proceeds to the next round in
the Urban Challenge.

The U.S. military is building an ambitious
bionic arm that is controlled by thought and
provides sensory feedback. Here's the latest
prototype, showing the movements of the hand.

| Continental at the 2007 DARPA Urban Challenge |
 |
The Carnegie Mellon University Tartan Racing
team's quest to conquer the 2007 Defense
Advanced Research Projects Agency(DARPA)
Urban Challenge is powered by a sophisticated
array of electronic sensors provided by
Continental Automotive Systems. The sensor
technology is designed to provide "Boss" with
a precise picture of the driving environment
as it navigates, parks and handles traffic
over a 60-mile course at the former George
Air Force Base in Victorville, Calif.
