Y Not
by Jacob on Jan.15, 2007, under Education, Technical
BYU is entering the 2007 DARPA Urban Challenge. Last Thursday we finally got our car. It is a 2005 Dodge Caravan: blue. We are very thankful to all of the sponsors who are helping us get started. We are calling the car Y Not.
I am on the control team for BYU’s car. Specifically, I’m working on the software that takes waypoints and communicates them to the car driving system. Eventually we will connect the AI which would allow the car to be completely driven by computers.
Be sure to check out pictures of the car.
