autonomous robot milestone
Zoe, an autonomous robot developed by Carnegie Mellon University, successfully completed a field trial in the Atacama desert in Chile. The robot covered about 200 km in five weeks. This might not seem so great, considering the teams that finished the DARPA Grand Challenge covered the same distance in about seven hours; however, those robots were following a pre-determined course. The Zoe robot explored without a map, deciding for itself where to go.
