Last week the Mars rover "opportunity" was driven by autonomous navigation software developed by the Carnagie Mellon University and preliminary data from the testrun indicates that it was successfull. The results indicate that the rover veered around a designted obstacle using the autonomous navigation. This type of technology will enable scientists to significantly increase the effectiveness of rovers allowing a much more vast and less difficult exploration of the martian surface.
