Microsoft hosted its fourth Innovation Day in Brussels this week with partner organizations showing off the tech wares they predict could take off in the near future. Tim Ferguson of CNET News.com sister site Silicon.com was on hand to check things out.
This photo shows a system developed by the Microsoft Research team in Cambridge, England, where the car learns how to drive around a track within a computer game. With further work it's hoped it can be tested on real vehicles. The three green laser lines measure time to impact to various objects, while the lines on the road show the route the car has taken previously, which it uses to perfect its line.
