MIT Researchers Develop New Lane-Change Algorithm for Self-Driving Cars

In the field of self-driving cars, algorithms for controlling lane changes are an important topic of study. But most existing lane-change algorithms have one of two drawbacks: Either they rely on detailed statistical models of the driving environment, which are difficult to assemble and too complex to analyze on the fly; or they're so simple that they can lead to impractically conservative decisions, such as never changing lanes at all.

Engineers Develop Motorless Self-Propelled Robots

Robots that paddle through water without using any power supply, servos, or motors have been developed by a team of engineers. These first-of-their-kind devices are capable of self-propulsion because the material which is used to construct them deforms with changes in temperature.

Researchers Get Closer to Making All-Terrain Self-Driving Cars

The latest fatality involving a self-driving car highlights that the technology is still not all set for ubiquitous adoption. Fleets of companies only test in major cities, where they have spent considerable time in labeling the accurate 3D positions of stop signs, curbs, and lanes.
