Nissan has updated their BR23C “robot car” that could detect obstacles within a 180 degree field of view using a single laser range finder. The new robot is called Eporo with obstacle detection that allows it to travel in groups similar to a school of fish. In general, fish have eyes on the sides of their head which gives them excellent peripheral vision, allowing them to travel in close proximity without smacking into one another. This strategy provides an excellent defense against predators, since the entire group can sense when evasive action is necessary, and which direction to head.

I see the new Nissan Leaf is going to be available soon. I didn’t even know they were working on a plugin car. Looks like they beat Honda and Toyota to the punch
Now to compare to the Chevy Volt to see the differences.
