Robots Podcast #120: Mel Torrie of Autonomous Solutions:
In episode #120, reporter Per speaks with Mel Torrie of Autonomous Solutions, Inc., which he founded in 2000, with encouragement from John Deere, as a spin-off of the Center for Self Organizing and Intelligent Systems (CSOIS) at Utah State University (USU). From agriculture, the company branched out into mining and construction, then survived one lean period because it had also invested in golf course mowing. ASI has also participated in three DARPA challenges, supporting the University of Florida's team for both runnings of the DARPA Grand Challenge, and then as an independent entrant in the DARPA Urban Challenge. ASI has distilled its autonomous vehicle experience into a kit that can be quickly and easily installed in new vehicles, now marketing this kit to automotive manufacturers for use in their internal testing programs, allowing them to push their cars through grueling tests more quickly than human drivers can tolerate.
