Kinect Hacks: Self-driving car

Awesome... all there is to say


Kinect Hacks: Self-driving car: "
Kinect has already gained the ability to fly, and now it can drive. Researchers at University of Bundeswehr Munich attached a Kinect sensor and a laptop to a small (formerly) remote-controlled car, loaded it with software based on the program used to run the MuCAR-3 in the DARPA Urban Challenge, and made a tiny, self-navigating car.



In the video after the break, the adorable little robot proves that it can carefully avoid obstacles -- even really tiny traffic cones. We're left with only one question after this demonstration: where can we get our own tiny traffic cones?

Examiner.com: Miley Cyrus legal defense on bong smoking

Miley was recently video recorded smoking from a bong. She was inhaling an herb called "salvia" with all intents and purposes to get high. Millions of young girls world wide love this young star for her role as Hannah Montana and as a pop star.

Miley needs to learn that using herbs and drugs for the recreation of getting high is abuse. Furthermore, salvia effects are very similar to those of LSD. It is from the mint family and is a mind altering drug and serious hallucinogen. Commonly used in Mexico for rituals in the form of a strong tea drink and ingested, it commonly causes strong hallucinations and severe nausea and vomiting.
