Good job CMU! You are good at something! Yay for the engineers and robotics people and whoever else might have done this. I wouldn't even know where to begin, but it sounds like someone does! Yay for robotic cars!
The picture finally loaded, and let me just say, those are A LOT of companies that wanted to sponsor our car. Maybe they want to sponsor our theatre productions too? "This production of Guys and Dolls brought to you by GM and CAT."
go red team! nice to see you haven't made a 3rd hummer-type vehicle, and this time it doesn't look too much like a robot car, with hundreds of sensors on the front bumper.
but then dave'll have to make scheme vests with corporate logos on them.
They had one of the team red hummers out during pre-college and it was intensely cool. The fact that we are at a point where a car has the capability to drive itself through traffic make this article that much more frightening really...
I remember watching the first challenge during Freshman year and it was a huge deal. If I remember correctly they were showing live video footage from the event in McConomy while it was going on. This time however I didn't even hear about it. I noticed it a couple of weeks ago and figured there would be a big to do about it so I didn't really worry abotu remembering the date, and then I see the blog and its already come and gone. Well I guess since we hadn't failed at this one, it wasn't as exciting. Anyway, its great to see that the car can now obey the rules of the road, thats more than New Jersey can do. Sorry Kim.
I saw this up here and was excited that CMU won! My roommate in into robotics and he was watching it streaming in our room. Then I saw that we won and It made me happy. I guess we have been doing this for a few years now.
Impressive that we beat Stanford racing. But why is it that every competition here at cmu has something to do with the military. Well we win and we are the best.
I've been following these since the beginning, and it was actually one of the things that first interested me about cmu. although no one really won the first grand challenge, CMU came closest. For the second I was disappointed to see stanford barely win. This time, it was great to see CMU win. go red team!
This is great we may actually achieve something besides books. And it seems we got more good sponsors than other teams. It might be one of reason to be at first place. Should we, SOD, also need to find some sponsors for our production?
The only sport that CMU is good at. Shame that the $2 million that they won won't even cover the cost of parts used. I like driving too much to let the car do it for me, but it is a very cool car and could improve safety by leaps and bounds.
Good to see we actually be stanford this time around. from the looks of it, the CMU team was doing pretty well the entire way through the competition this year as well. every time i start to think of all the work that goes into those cars, it just makes my head hurt because lord knows how many process trees driving in an urban setting requires to not hit anything...

because we are moving that way, no doubt.

I, like Derek, remember this event having a live video feed freshman year. I guess the hubbub has died down, but who cares, we won!
It's amazing how much bulk the red team has been able to get off the car the last two years. Just goes to show how fast some technologies grow.
