Something rings a bell here. Was there a discussion here recently about testing of robotics or autonomous vehicles in the desert somewhere in the US???
Unlike many other vehicle programs underway at the Pentagon, Young said RACER isn’t focused on adding sensors. Researchers with the program use the same sensors they started out with when RACER began, choosing instead to rely on training machine learning approaches, such as neural networks, which mimic the human brain through a set of algorithms.
