Stanley, winner of DARPA's 2005 grand challenge, is on his way to be part of an exhibit at Smithsonian's National Museum. But first, Stanley is being displayed at San Jose's Tech Museum until July 17. Venture capital firm Mohr Davidow along with members of the Stanford team gathered for a reception to talk about the amazing Volkswagen Touareg and the technology that guided it through 132 miles of the Mojave desert autonomously.
