Summary

[edit]
Description

Today Sebastian Thrun, the head of the Stanford AI Lab, spoke on the probabilistic (R)evolution in robotics, and he showed several of his <a href="http://robots.stanford.edu/research.html" rel="nofollow">robots</a>, culminating with the big one, Stanley, pictured above..

This is Stanford’s autonomous robotic vehicle that will compete in the <a href="http://www.darpa.mil/grandchallenge/Team_Applicants/Stanford_Racing_Team.html" rel="nofollow">DARPA Grand Challenge</a> in October, racing across the desert at 30mph without any human intervention.

The roof is festooned with laser range finders and other sensors:

“The vehicle incorporates measurements from GPS, a 6DOF inertial measurement unit, and wheel speed for pose estimation. While moving, the environment is perceived through four laser range finders, a radar system, a stereo camera pair, and a monocular vision system.”
