Urban Challenge: Project Web Hosting - Open Source Software
DARPA (US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) ran its Urban Challenge race in 2007 to show that cars can drive themselves in the city. The Seattle Robotics Society (SRS) invented the Robo-Magellan contest to make the challenge of autonomous vehicles affordable to the robot hobbyist. This web site poses a new Urban Challenge: achieve order of magnitude improvements in both energy efficiency and safety. To see how this is possible,
SourceForge.net hosts over 100,000 Open Source projects. You may find what you're looking for by searching our site or using our Software Map.
