motorcycle robot.
The DARPA Autonomous challenge is starting in a few days.. Teams have to design and build a ground vehicle to autonomously go from LA to Vegas in less than 10 hours. Winner takes home a $1 million cash prize. Man.. it’s such a cool race. I really wish that I had gotten a team together to do this.. i’m yearning for my HEV days, i guess. Anyway, most teams are building an SUV with some sort of self-drive-guidance system, but check out this autonomous motorcycle riding robot built for the race. frikkin cool.
