  • EVOLUTION, NOT REVOLUTION. I'm for a driverless acar but I realize that to do this, it has to occur incrementally because if there's a problem it'll be easier to diagnose. Already car companies like Mercedes-Benz is doing it thru its following pioneering innovations (from earliest to latest):

    AntiLock Brakes,

    Traction Control,

    Electronic Stability Program,

    Brake Assist,

    4matic,

    Distronic Cruise Control,

    Active Body Control,

    Pre-Safe Brake

    and after 2010, Pre-Scan.

  • where did the car start and finish?

  • Needs mounted turrets.

  • lol

  • looks like the pike's peak Touareg with stuff on top.

  • how do you find a carreer in such a field?

  • I would love to watch this, but there is something a bit odd about cheering a driverless car to the finish line! Saying that I would be cheering as well though.

  • I suppose the car gains a character of its own, through its autonomy.

    But the cheering is really for the people who gave it this autonomy, and made it so impressive.

    Nice job, Stanford!

  • Improvements on GPS! WOW! I am rooting for Stanley again this year!

  • its not competing..

  • nice nice

  • If everybody was thinking like you we would still live in caves, running around with clubs.

  • I was rooting for Stanley the whole time!!!

    I don't care for the idea of DARPA. Only would we pay so much for something to soley benefit our military.

  • The irony with your comment about DARPA is that we wouldn't be here commenting on a YouTube video on the Internet if it wasn't for research initiated by DARPA.

  • @ bikertom98: Very well said!! Almost everything has it's origin in the military!

  • how awesome is that, very nice... make sure you check out the nova special on the grand challenge

  • Thanks for your nice comment. I've seen the Nova show and it was excellent. Of course, being there live for the event was a unique historical experience. The qualification runs at the California Speedway were a lot of fun, too. I hope DARPA sponsors something like this again soon. As a ham radio amateur television operator, I enjoyed capturing the video and transmitting it to other hams.
