Hitech Race
A Stanford University team won a crazy prize – $2 million – on Sunday for sending a modified Volkswagen Touareg across 132 miles of rugged desert, guided only by sensors and computers. Twenty-three driverless vehicles were sent into the Mojave Desert but Stanford was the best.
The race of cars which were driven by computers was organized and sponsored by the Pentagon’s Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, known as DARPA. The next stage is rally “Paris – Dakkar” withour drivers 🙂
