The DARPA Grand Challenges Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency DARPA Grand Challenge Created in response to a Congressional and DoD mandate: a field test intended to accelerate research and development in autonomous ground vehicles that will help save American lives on the battlefield. The Grand Challenge brings together individuals and organizations from industry, the R&D community, government, the armed services, academia, students, backyard inventors, and automotive enthusiasts in the pursuit of a technological challenge. The First Grand Challenge: Across the Mojave, March 2004 Across the Mojave from Barstow, California to Primm, Nevada :$1 million prize. From the qualifying round at the California Speedway, 15 finalists emerged to attempt the Grand Challenge. The prize went unclaimed as no vehicles were able to complete more than 7.4 miles. The 2005 Grand Challenge Multi-step qualification process: Site Visits, NQE – Semifinals, GC final event 132 miles through the Nevada desert. Course supplied as list of GPS waypoints. October 8, 2005 in the desert near Primm, NV. Prize $2 million. The 2007 Urban Challenge Nov. 2007; 60 miles in an urban environment. Lane keeping, passing, stop-signs, K-turns “driving down Nassau Street”. Range of Prizes

Constraints Very little budget Simplicity Guiding Principles Objective Enrich the academic experience of the students

Homemade “Unlike the fancy “drive by wire” system employed by Stanford and VW, Princeton’s students built a homemade set of gears to drive their pickup. I could see from the electronics textbook they were using that they were learning as they went.”
