Dream, then do
Thinking Highways, November 2006
A good idea is a good idea. As fast as science fiction can be unpacked at the bookstore, the engineering-inclined are critiquing its values and visualizing its technical possibilities. Read...
Get Ready, Get Set, Race!
GPS World, September 2006
Preplanning information about terrain is as important as real-time navigation for achieving peak performance in autonomous driving. Both preplanning and navigation -- and key technologies to support them -- helped the Carnegie Mellon red Team successfully guide robot vehicles Sandstrom and H1lander through the 2005 DARPA Grand Challenge course.
