Azat Posted February 15, 2003 Report Share Posted February 15, 2003 Sip, Movses, what do you guys say. We have a year to make the vehicle and the prize money is a million dollars. http://www.darpa.mil/grandchallenge/images/hpmain.jpg The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) intends to conduct a challenge of autonomous ground vehicles (see “Technical Details” for a definition) between Los Angeles, CA and Las Vegas, NV in 2004. A cash award will be granted to the winning team. The route will feature both on-road and off-road portions and will include extremely rugged, challenging terrain and obstacles. The purpose of the challenge is to stimulate interest in and encourage the accelerated development of autonomous ground vehicle technologies that could be used by the US military. This document contains a detailed description of the challenge and is meant to help potential contestants decide whether to participate and, if so, what kind of vehicle to develop. A more detailed set of rules and challenge description will be released on February 22, 2003. The official rules, updates, and application instructions will be made available on the DARPA Grand Challenge website: http://www.darpa.mil/grandchallenge.
