This project has migrated. Our website is http://www.elcanoproject.org. Code is now hosted on github. We are developing printed circuit boards to make a complete kit for vehicle automation. We are crowd-sourcing through August 30, 2013 on http://www.rockethub.com/projects/28761-elcano-open-source-autonomous-vehicles
I gave a talk in Europe in June 2010 on how an urban transportation system can get 1000 mpg. See http://www.cogneta.com
The project is now based on a real vehicle; not simulation. See the recently posted design file.
This project has been revived and redirected at the Robo-Magellan event sponsored by the Seattle Robotics Society [http://www.seattlerobotics.org/]. This is an affordable version of the Grand Challenge. An outdoor robot is given the GPS coordinates of cones and must touch them all fastest.
