    More on self-driving cars. I hope when I am ready to trade in my A4 this tech will be available. No more driving around looking for a parking spot!

Real driverless cars are now legal in China's tech hub Shenzhen | TechCrunch - 0 views

  • The regulation, which is set to take effect on August 1, grants permission for autonomous driving vehicles to operate without a human in the driver’s seat
  • The rules also define the thorny issue of liability. When the vehicle is equipped with a driver, the driver will “be handled” by the transportation authorities in case of traffic rule violations and incidents. But if the car is completely driverless, the owner or manager of the self-driving vehicle is subject to handling by the authorities. If the accident is a result of a defect in the connected car, the owner or manager of the car can seek compensation from the manufacturer or vendor.
  • Major autonomous driving players in China have all opted for a lidar-based route instead of one that relies purely on vision tech like Tesla.

STANFORD: Robotic block party puts new high-tech creations on... | www.ktvu.com - 0 views

  •  
    I went to this great open house yesterday on campus, "Robot Block Party." Everything from the Nasa robotics team to amateur tinkerers frankensteining robots in their backyards. A couple people from the Exhibits team at the Cal Academy showed a kinect-powered robot they had been tinkering with as a side project, where - their idea - would be to put the robot (with a camera) on the roof, and you'd be able to "drive" it using the kinect inside the museum. And of course, there was the self-driving race car, complete with the ubiquitous Stanford parking sticker.

How 3-D Printing is Transforming Everything from Medicine to Manufacturing - 0 views

  •  
    Okay, when 3-D printing makes it onto the cover of PARADE MAGAZINE, there is no question it no longer is an "emerging" trend. So, what will be the next trend to graduate (self-driving cars have crossed the line already)?

Holy Crap, Self-Driving Cars Are Now Legal in California - 0 views

  • Just moments ago, California Governor Jerry Brown signed into effect SB1298, effectively paving the way for driverless cars in California. For a state that relies more heavily on cars than any other, this is hugely significant when it comes to traffic and road congestion.
