Tesla Full Self-Driving Beta 11.3.6 takes me to a randomly generated point on the map with zero human input required. A lot of people don’t realize this is possible today.
An Indiegogo crowdfunding campaign for the Segway Navimow robot lawn mower with VisionFence will soon launch in North America. The device can use integrated sensors to detect lawn edges and obstacles and navigate in areas of weak signal. Other features include EFLS positioning and adjustable cutting height.

SF startup Navier hopes to disrupt transportation with futuristic water taxis that would cruise on the bay. A possible alternative to BART, ferries and traffic.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is continuing to advance and has now defeated a human fighter pilot in a virtual combat simulation.
This result was achieved in the US Army’s AlphaDogfight competition, which aimed to demonstrate the feasibility of developing autonomous agents capable of defeating enemy aircraft in aerial combat.

The retrofitted aircraft will expand the reach and applicability of zero emissions flight technology, further advancing the aviation industry’s quest towards achieving net-zero carbon emissions.
A solar-powered motorhome, shaped like a huge elongated teardrop, silently rolled into Madrid on Friday as part of a month-long journey from the Netherlands to southern Spain to highlight more sustainable modes of transport.
Engineering students at the Technical University of Eindhoven in the Netherlands created the blue and white vehicle, named Stella Vita – Latin for “star” and “life” – to inspire car makers and politicians to accelerate the transition toward green energy.

Aviation punches above its weight when it comes to greenhouse emissions — it is by far the highest emission form of transportation. Our modern mega planes may be the most efficient they’ve ever been, but in 2019, they still churned out over 915 million tonnes of carbon dioxide.
To make matters worse, one of our best zero-emission alternatives — hydrogen — is far too heavy and bulky to build a usable airplane. Or at least that is what we thought.
The California startup HyPoint recently announced their plan to make a hydrogen-powered aircraft with nearly three times the range of a turboprop commuter jet.
In a recent presentation, Tesla said that it was working to eliminate rare Earth magnets from its EVs over supply and toxicity concerns.
In a major move, Tesla is looking to rid its electric vehicles of rare Earth minerals, potentially eliminating the biggest environmental concern over the increasing number of EVs on the road.
