Carnegie Mellon's Cadillac SRX is Driving Innovation On Its Own

Carnegie Mellon's Cadillac SRX drives autonomously for 33 miles. When looked at while considering all of the systems of lines of code that went into making this journey, this video is quite engaging. When looked at from another perspective, that of the driver, it is pretty boring. Just as its creators indented no doubt. The future is indeed here...and it will be interesting to see what we have to do from a user interface perspective to distribute it more widely in the coming years.

 

Right Now...

It's happening right now. In those special places. Those places of solitude that are all yours and yours alone. The shaded nook amongst the red rocks just outside Moab. The show white bowl below the redwoods. That special bit of high plains desert that kept you so exposed yet safe through the night. It's happening right now...our passage through the darkness...that makes the light so truely brilliant.

 

Thanks to NationalGeographic for the gorgeous reminder.
