Feature: 2007 Darpa Video - GM and Carnegie Mellon's Boss

The GM/CMU entry is based on a 2007 Tahoe, dubbed "Boss" for Charles "Boss" Kettering, who touched off the electrification of the vehicle with his invention of the electric starter (Cadillac, 1911). It bristles with over 25 external sensors, the computing power of ten Compaq Intel Core 2 Duo laptops, and myriad other electric and electronic devices all powered by an auxiliary 8-kW generator under the hood.
