But instead of hiring a bunch of fancy nerds and sticking them in an undisclosed location until...
DARPA's first driverless rally, in 2004, was an off-road race. This year the agency focused on urban features. The 60-mile (100 km) course included intersections and buildings, and contestants had to park and merge with traffic. On the outside, most of the vehicles looked quite similar: conventional sedans and SUVs plastered with corporate-sponsor logos and encrusted with sensors, their backseats loaded with rack-mounted PCs.
