Photos of the Month - November 2007

Floating computers, bizarre power sources, wacky races, the iPhone launch and much, much more...

A race of driverless cars took place on a former airbase in California this month run by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency.

The overall challenge was won by Carnegie Mellon University's offering Boss, which narrowly beat Stanford University's robot, called Junior. This is MIT's robot, Talos.

See what else happened in this real life wacky race.

One of the competitors, Team Lux showed off their car in London's Science Museum earlier this year. See the picture story here.
