The first of 23 driverless robotic vehicles rolled across the Mojave Desert at dawn Saturday in a $2 million Pentagon-sponsored robot race across 132 miles of rugged desert and mountains.
The Pentagon's Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, or DARPA, made the course harder this year and doubled the taxpayer-funded prize to spur innovation and development of remote control-free robots that could be used in the battlefield.
