My kind of video game
November 19, 2007

I saw a video on Gizmodo this week that really inspired me. It combines physics simulation with video games with creativity with simplicity. Wow. I would love to take a crack at making a game based on this idea.


DARPA Urban Challenge
November 3, 2007

Today was the big day, November 3, 2007: Eleven teams prepared their autonomous cars for the DARPA Urban Challenge this morning, and one at a time, their vehicles were sent out of the starting gates. It was truly fascinating to watch (via webcast) as the cars and trucks made their way around the urban environment, and in the end, Stanford's entry appears to have been the top dog. Their car behaved in a very balanced, "clean" fashion and it just blew me away watching their VW Passat do so well. Frankly, I wasn't expecting any of the teams to complete the course, let alone do it with confidence. Wow.

This event turned out to be a huge success.

If attacked by a gang of sword wielding ninjas would the worlds fastest speed walker walk or run away? haha
