How about off-road driving? Dirt tracks, driveways, ad hoc parking, grass verge parking, tradesmen's utes, caravan/horsebox/boat/trailer towing? The problem with automation is that you need to cover every eventuality, error condition and exception. Humans tend to be much better, on average, than machines when it comes to exceptions and unexpected conditions. Unless of course they drive so infrequently that their skill levels and reaction times deteriorate. -- Regards brd Bernard Robertson-Dunn Sydney Australia email: [email protected] web: www.drbrd.com web: www.problemsfirst.com Blog: www.problemsfirst.com/blog _______________________________________________ Link mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.anu.edu.au/mailman/listinfo/link
