technologies are getting closer for real world scenarios. Toyoto’s Japanese Prius hybrid vehicle
offered automatic parallel parking assistance, starting from 2003, while Lexus soon added a similar
system for its Lexus LS sedan, Ford incorporates Active Park Assist in 2009, and BMW followed one
year later with its own parallel parking assistant.

Waymo began as the Google Self-Driving Car Project in 2009 with a mission of making it safe and easy
for everyone to get around - without the need for anyone in the driver’s seat. By 2013, major
automotive companies including General Motors, Ford, Mercedes Benz, BMW and others started
working on their own self-driving car technologies. Nissan commits to a launch date by announcing
that it will release several driverless cars by the year 2020. Other cars, such as the 2014 Mercedes S-
Class, added semi-autonomous features such as self-steering, the ability to stay within lanes, accident
avoidance, and more. The likes of Tesla and Uber also began actively exploring self-driving
technology.

It offers taxonomy related to On-Road Motor Vehicle Automated Driving Systems ranging in level
from no automation to full automation.

Level 0 No automation: Zero autonomy, the driver performs all driving tasks. Level 1 - Driver
assistance: The vehicle is controlled by the driver, but some driving assist features is required. Level
2 - Partial automation: Vehicle has combined automated functions, like acceleration and steering, but
the driver must remain engaged with driving task and monitor the environment at all times. Level 3 -
Conditional automation: Driver is necessary, but is not required to monitor the environment. The
driver must be ready to take control of the vehicle at all times with notice. Level 4 - High automation:
The vehicle is capable of performing all driving functions under certain conditions. The driver may
have the option to control the vehicle. Level 5 - Full automation: The vehicle is capable of performing
all driving functions under all conditions. The driver may have the option to control the vehicle.
The robot chef that can prepare your dinner

Moley Robotics has created the world's first robotic kitchen. The prototype is the product of 12
months of development in collaboration with Shadow Robotics, Yachtline, DYSEGNO, Sebastian
Conran and Stanford University Professor Mark Cutkosky.

At Moley Robotics, there is no magic, only hands with multiple joints, numerous actuated degrees of
freedom and sophisticated control system. It includes two robotic arms with hands equipped with
tactile sensors, an oven, an electric stove, a dishwasher and a touchscreen unit. These artificial hands
can pick up and interact with most kitchen equipment, such as blenders, whisks and knives.

Tim Anderson, culinary innovator and winner of the prestigious BBC Master Chef competition (2011)
played an integral role in the kitchen’s development. He first developed a dish that would test the
systems capabilities—a crab bisque—and was then recorded in 3D in a special studio cooking it. Every
motion was captured, from the way Tim stirred the liquids to the way he controlled the temperature of
the hob. This motion capture technique will be used to generate an ever growing digital library of
recipes for the Moley kitchen to cook. The recorded recipe can be cooked by the robotic kitchen an
unlimited amount of times, enabling your favourite dishes to be passed down the generations.
Satellites dedication to soldiers

SeeMeeeMe (Space Enabled Effects for Military EngagementsSpace Enabled Effects for Military Engagements) is prototype small satellite built by the

S
Raytheon for DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) to obtain on-demand satellite
imagery in a timely and persistent manner for pre-mission planning. Military users will have an
opportunity to evaluate the satellite’s performance during missions in early 2019. Eventually, SeeMe
constellation may comprise several types of small satellites, each lasting one to five years before de-
orbiting and burning up, leaving no space debris and causing no re-entry hazard.
