Edwin Olson. "Algorithms for an Autonomous Car". Talk or presentation, 8, January, 2008.

Abstract
The DARPA Urban Challenge asked: is it possible to build an autonomous car that can safely navigate a traffic-filled urban environment? In November 2007, 35 teams met in Victorville, CA to find out the answer. This talk will describe Team MIT's vehicle, which was one of only six vehicles to successfully finish the course. The basic architecture of the system (from road detection to path planning) will be described, along with some of the algorithms that were used. This talk will highlight the obstacle detection and tracking system, which combined data from over twenty sensors including RADARs and laser range finders.
