Tesla CEO Elon Musk stands in front of the damaged Cybertruck after it fails a demonstration of its durability.Ringo H.W. Chiu / AP At a live delivery event this November, where Elon Musk awkwardly opened the door for about a dozen new Cybertruck owners, he told the world: "The apocalypse can come along any moment, and here at Tesla, we have the best in apocalypse technology." Then he showed a video of the vehicle being pummeled by a machine gun, quipping, "If you're ever in an argument with another car, you will win." And then he sold a bunch of Cybertrucks. Two million have been preordered--and 500 delivered--for over 60,000 a pop. Some soon proved that they couldn't survive a test drive, let alone a ride with Mad Max.

Sensors are crucial for autonomous operation in robotic vehicles (RV). Unfortunately, RV sensors can be compromised by physical attacks such as tampering or spoofing, leading to a crash. In this paper, we present DeLorean, a modelfree recovery framework for recovering autonomous RVs from sensor deception attacks (SDA). DeLorean is designed to recover RVs even from a strong SDA in which the adversary targets multiple heterogeneous sensors simultaneously (even all the sensors). Under SDAs, DeLorean inspects the attack induced errors, identifies the targeted sensors, and prevents the erroneous sensor inputs from being used to derive actuator signals. DeLorean then replays historic state information in the RV's feedback control loop for a temporary mitigation and recovers the RV from SDA. Our evaluation on four real and two simulated RVs shows that DeLorean can recover RVs from SDAs, and ensure mission success in 90.7% of the cases on average.

With technology for drones far advanced, the next step is to ensure they can fly safely in cities.

But one day in February, it also served as a testing ground for European society's future with drones. Since the local economy depends on tourism during the summer, Benidorm is relatively empty in winter – and that's a plus when it comes to safety while testing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). The tall buildings that dominate the skyline also stand in nicely for those of a big city. In sum, it's an ideal place to try out new drone technology.

It's best known for appearing in the 1985 American sci-fi classic'Back to the Future'. Now, the DeLorean motor car is set to make a comeback, as an environmentally-friendly all-electric vehicle. New renders show the upcoming reboot, called'Alpha5 EV', with the original car's silver body and iconic gull-wing doors either side. A slatted rear window and futuristic red tail lights also provide a fitting tribute to the original, which was memorably modified to work as a time machine in'Back to the Future'. It can reach 88 miles per hour in just 4.35 seconds – but sadly won't allow you to traverse the space-time continuum.

As the DeLorean rolled to a stop and the cloud of tire smoke cleared, Jon Goh peeked out the sliver of the passenger-side window to see dozens of gathered spectators cheering and high-fiving the successful test. The crowd, and anticipation, had built throughout the afternoon, while Goh, a recent mechanical engineering Ph.D. graduate from Stanford, had been outlining a kilometer-long obstacle course in traffic cones at Thunderhill Raceway in Northern California. The sun was setting fast, but Goh and his co-pilot, another grad student named Tushar Goel, couldn't wait until morning to take a shot at the twisty course. Besides, MARTY, the driver, didn't need to see the track--it needed only GPS coordinates and the algorithms on Goh's laptop to chart its path. MARTY is a 1981 DeLorean that Goh and his colleagues at Stanford's Dynamic Design Lab converted into an all-electric, autonomous drift car.

Stanford engineers have redesigned an iconic 1981 DeLorean with a futuristic feature that Dr. Emmett Brown didn't think of –self-driving capabilities. The vehicle, referred to as MARTY, has been converted into an all-electric, self-driving machine that boasts custom suspension and onboard computers. The team designed the vintage car to also drift in a bid to develop automated vehicles that can use all of the friction between the tires in order to'avoid any accident that is avoidable within the laws of physics'. The MARTY, which stands for Multiple Actuator Research Test bed for Yaw control, was develop by a team at Stanford's Dynamic Design Lab, which first designed to car to drift – a style of driving where the car moves forward but in a sideways position. Stanford engineers have redesigned an iconic 1981 DeLorean with a futuristic feature that Dr. Emmett Brown didn't think of –self-driving capabilities.

How scared is the ancient AI controlled Illuminati of Motuphi? Well they must be pretty damned scared to start assaulting the guy when he was a child and continuing the carnage upon his life even to this day. As if it wasn't bad enough that Christians used to rape the boy when he was just a little kid, IN the church, while services was goin' on. His mama was botted by the ancient AI to leave him with a "prophet" when he was a child who had a pedophile torture dungeon. There's still kiddie porn out there that Motuphi starred in as a little kid that depicts him being tortured on a table via fisting and anally raping him with foreign objects.
