DARPA Robotics Challenge Final Details

As the DARPA Robotics Challenge is fast approaching, we were able to get supplementary details on the competition. Since this is the third and Final challenge, and in California, the venue is set up for more of a show than the previous more mechanically nitty-gritty challenge, which was held in the pit-stop hangers of a racecourse. A bunch of people from the public and from industry are planning to attend in order to get a closer look at the robots and their performance.
