Boss is a robotic vehicle equipped with 25 lasers, cameras and radars to enable it to sense objects and know which direction to go in.

The self-driving vehicle is scheduled to be tested in November during The Urban Challenge, a 100km course in which various robots race across a city or suburban environment.

In addition to helping the military, General Motors officials expect this new technology to also play a future role in dangerous tasks such as mine-seeking.

Cadillac Super Cruise semi-autonomous quick test

Published on Apr 5, 2018

Here's a quick test of Cadillac's Super Cruise semi-autonomous system. One key to the system's operation is GM's proprietary, Lidar-based mapping of roughly 130,000 miles of major highways in the U.S. and Canada.

The CT6 is updated with that detailed map data once per 82 feet of vehicle travel, and that info is combined with onboard sensor data and high-precision GPS.
