Team Caltech, a robotics group at the California Institute of Technology, is one of 35 teams competing in DARPA's Urban Grand Challenge, a race of driverless vehicles on mock city streets, scheduled for 3 November.
The team is fine-tuning "Alice" - a heavily modified 8,000-pound Ford E-350 van, reinforced with armour plating - for the Urban Grand Challenge semi-final round on 26 October in Victorville, California, at the site of the former George Air Force Base.
