3D Vision for Autonomous Navigation - We are developing object representations built from range images that can be used in landmark recognition and object matching	Active Sensor Control for Neural Net Lane Tracking - Panacea enables existing, fixed-camera lane-trackers such as ALVINN, to use steerable cameras without retraining.
ALVINN-On-A-Chip - The ALVINN-on-a-chip project is developing an intelligent VLSI imaging sensor for road following	AUtomotive Run-Off-Road Avoidance system - To help avoid highway accidents, we have developed a vision-based lateral position estimation system called AURORA.
Autonomous Land Vehicle In a Neural Network - Neural network navigation	Distributed Architecture for Mobile Navigation - The Distributed Architecture for Mobile Navigation (DAMN) is a behavior-based architecture similar in spirit to the Subsumption Architecture.
Grid based Approach for Navigation by Evidence Storage and Histogram Analysis - Grid based navigation	Massively Parallel Road Following - Autonomous roadway navigation using video images
No Hands Across America! - Vehicle drives across the United States	Ranger - We are developing a software control system for cross country autonomous vehicles called RANGER, for Real-time Autonomous Navigator with a Geometric Engine.
Rapidly Adapting Lateral Position Handler - adaptive steering	Real-time Autonomous Car Chaser Operating Optimally at Night - RACCOON is a taillight-tracker that can drive an intelligent vehicle at night, when the road is not visible, by following other cars.
Side Collision Warning System for Transit Buses - To develop a warning system which helps a driver of a transit bus to avoid side collisions with pedestrians, other vehicles, or stationary objects.	Simulated Highways for Intelligent Vehicle Algorithms - SHIVA is a microsimulation of a highway environment, designed specifically for testing intelligent vehicle tactical algorithms.
Simultaneous Localization and Mapping with Detection, Tracking, and Classification of Moving Objects - We are developing the algorithms to solve Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) and Detection, Tracking and Classification of Moving Objects (DTCMO) problems for both indoor and outdoor applications.	Situational Awareness Planner Implementing Effective Navigation in Traffic - SAPIENT is a distributed approach to tactical decision making for intelligent vehicles.
Supervised TeleRobotics using Incremental Polyhedral-Earth geometry - Teleoperating vehicles over low bandwidth links.	Transit Bus Collision Warning Systems - Research and integration of side and front collision warning systems for transit buses.
