It's challenging work.

I'll try anything once,I guess.

Why don't you give tennis a try?

Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in Africa.

It was absolutely wonderful.

I'm confident that we'll find one.

if you can complete a one kilometer open water race.

(Laughter)

And I gave it a try.

I bet Chris has always been an inspiring guy.

Well, I leave that one up to you to judge.

And I thought everything seemed to be on track.

If you think it's right, don't mind about others

That's fantastic. All the high school students out there you guys rock.

We don't do this today in traffic. It's a little bit dangerous.

And some of the sponsors of this TED meeting are such organizations.

I like the new guy. He's not afraid to take on challenging work.

But given what I now feel capable of doing,

To conflicts, it would be U.N.'s peacekeeping forces, and so on.

Anybody feels they want to step up to the challenge, it's on you.

This implimentation is so fast that it can plan these paths in less than 10 msec for any location in this maze.

(Laughter)

You see our vehicle following another vehicle.

Albert goes in, I follow Albert, the crew is around.

Do what works best. Do what works for now.

But, this was a good indicator that the field was making progress on recognition. So I will give you an example of what kinds of data sets are popular these days.

Now that they're fully engaged,

I was able to hold my breath for over seven minutes.

This work led to the Urban Challenge, in which we built another robot called Junior that eventually took second place.

This is a big project, it's a big challenge, but big challenges did not stop me when I was a single person doing this.

So for each person we can establish an average, which is the center of the diagram.

Again, we're going to discuss this more, at the end, the last week of class.

Instead of saying up front that you can't do it, maybe you could try challenging yourself.

They could only use their Zipcar membership when absolutely necessary.

Solve puzzles and action challenges in order to get all the gems in the room.

It's a blog that you can look at how to build the marshmallows.

Several years ago here at TED, Peter Skillman introduced a design challenge called the marshmallow challenge.

A star planning, and dynamic programming planning that all address slightly different use cases.

let me show you some videos.
