I saw that. Pretty wild. I was figuring you could outfit the car with lots of VHF/UHF gear and give a whole new meaning to the term "Rover". :laugh:

I was at Heathrow airport in 1981 and again in 1983. Both times the buses that took the passengers to the aircraft on the tarmac were driverless. Nothing any freakier than waiting in a glassed in lounge and a driverless bus pulls up and opens the door for you. This must have been one of if not the earliest such use of driverless vehicles.

The Teamsters would just love that here.
 
I'm thinking controlled by a real surgeon. It is just less invasive and more precise than an incision and human hands.

That's already here, several fields already using robotics for just that reason.
 
It has been around for many years actually. It's called telesurgery. A surgeon in Toronto Ontario can perform complex surgery on a patient in Yellowknife Northwest Territories via computerized robotics. It has been a life changer and a life saver getting urgent surgeries done in remote places like the High Arctic where a bush plane can have a patient into a regional hospital in a few hours instead of halfway across the country to a major urban hospital.


Telesurgery - procedure, recovery, tube, removal, time, operation, Definition, Description
 
The Da Vinci is a recent one added to that. Remote or onsite it s pretty slick.
