DARPA Grand Challenge: Final Part 1

I knew that

[jamfoxs]

Its crazy how technology evolves rapidly. You never know in the future these kind of cars will drive us to work and drop off kids to school. Can't wait for the future :D

[oeginmulla]

why the fucking new technology is just focused for the military actions..

[jamfoxs]

@oeginmulla likely because the military have substantial amounts of money to make this technology more efficiently and safe for the public

[bodyOFzen]

@oeginmulla because the military has the money. are YOU going to fund it?

[raterito]

This could eventually end at all car accidents, if I got to give up driving I will!! (and I mean it).

Alice that rampaging bitch...

[waddlerobloxxxx]

teramax is my favorite, hes so calm :)

[Riddco]

Sucks that Ensco got a flat tire!!! What a stupid thing to take you out of a competition like this. I love when the underdogs win.

[humvee600]

messing with robotics aint like toys, u gotta treat them like its ur own kid

[NammerzX]

TRANSFORMERS!!!!

[airbuscrazy]

lmao i love teramax,its just kinda like the fat kid that everybody loves and he just does what he does and doesnt give a fuck what everybody else thinks.

[wormemc]

I wouldnt be surprised if that wasnt a reflection of their sponsor's attitude.

[SNIPERSTEVE420]

there comes a point when technology is too far.  remember terminator?

[Lokivoid]

@SNIPERSTEVE420

We are no where near microcontrollers capable of anything remotely close to the slightest resemblence of intelligence.  Besides terminator is vary bad refrence considering the whole series was based around a nonsensicall paradox (going back in time to stop skynet, but going back in time is what created skynet, in short skynet never existed so no reason to travel back in time to stop it)

[SNIPERSTEVE420]

thers more to what i am talking about than what is just this video. technology being developed by the government is decades in advance than this or what we have available as the public. Robots are being developed that think and make decisions on their own. that is just sick. they also put neurotransmiters in living creatures to make them do what they are told to do by remote computers.

[Lokivoid]

@SNIPERSTEVE420

There is no robot capable of "learning" as the IC / MCU archtecture is not near advanced enough at the moment. As for decision making thats simple scripting nothing new there its just slightly more complex nowaday's. Most of the aspect's your see in robotic is the modern variable sensor imputs used in designs and detection algorithm's not the API scripts. As for the nural stimulas thats corp funded medical research this is not new and nothing to do with computer intelligence.

[halflife103]

i don't know what this guy was talking about, with that winding cliff section. where i live we drive that quite often. from what i saw of that trail that wouldent be so stressfull. but i would like to see how teramax got through it.

[EnzoFerrari1964]

nice post ...

why is my screen wide (the video screen)

[juddiemunmun]

wow this is incredible.i think i might go into robotics now.

[inukoinu]

It's amazing that the cars can navigate so well!
