TO GO WITH STORY by Tangi Quemener, US-military-technology
"Junior", a 2006 Volkswagen Passat Station wagon diesel, heavily modified and robotized by a team of Stanford University, begins the second stage of the DARPA urban challenge in Victorville, California, 03 November 2007. Prototype robot cars of the future faced off under the gaze of Pentagon officials keen to see if machines rather than troops might one day be able to drive in urban war zones. This weekend's competition organised by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), the Pentagon's research arm, will see 11 teams descend on a former US Air Force base in Victorville, situated in the desert northeast of Los Angeles.
