The 2005 DARPA Grand Challenge is a 130 mile desert course - while this might seem mild compared to the Baja 1000 or other similiar off-road courses, what makes the DARPA Grand Challenge special is that the racers have to complete the course entirely without human control. That’s right - robots.
There’s a whole load of videos over at The Great Robot Race’s website, but there is one participant that stands out from the rest. Out of 12 participants which consisted of all-wheel drive machines, there was only one two-wheeler - the Ghostrider from Blue Team, which is a computer controlled motorcycle.
Using an array of sensors, high speed high resolution 3D-capable cameras and a gyro to help maintain balance, the Ghostrider navigated the DARPA Grand Challenge course using GPS. Watch a video of the Ghostrider after the jump, and the rest of the participants over at The Great Robot Race.
It seems that most of us like David Arumugam so I suppose Proton made the right call with the production of this Chinese New Year greeting video. It also emphasizes on our multi-cultural rojak society. Enjoy the video!
BMW recently saw the switch from Jung von Matt (which left the BMW account for Mercedes-Benz) to Media Audience Beratung, and MAB’s first ad campaign for BMW carries the tagline: “Don’t trust advertising. Only trust yourself.”
The campaign consists of a series of print ads and TV commercials, of which the print ad is shown above (in German), and the TV commercial is viewable after the jump. The cleverly done ad campaign tells consumers not to trust advertising and instead test drive the 3-Series themselves to find out what a great drive it is.
The TV commercial starts off with beautiful and exaggerated scenes of the BMW 3-Series driving through the countryside, but slowly everything including the background music disappears and you are only left with the car.
This the final video of a new set of 3 30 second TV commericals which are focused on the new Proton Saga’s features. This video features Dr. Kenny Lee again, using the Proton Saga to brig his patients to the hospital. Watch the video after the jump. You will also find links to the other two 30 second TV commercials, and also the original 1 minute plus length ones.
This the second of a new set of 3 TV Commericals which are focused on the new Proton Saga’s features and they are about 30 seconds each. This video features David Arumugam of the Alleycats and he demonstrates how you can use the new Proton Saga’s 413 liter boot space, although I wouldn’t really recommend it. Watch the video after the jump.
We’ve previously seen the set of 3 TV commercials promoting the new Proton Saga which were about 1 minute long each featuring local personalities such as Dr Sheikh Muszaphar Shukor our Malaysian Angkawasan, David Arumugam of the popular Alleycats band as well as Dr Kenny who serves the rural areas in East Malaysia. There is another set of 3 videos which are more focused on the car’s features and they are about 30 seconds each. Here is the first of three, featuring our Angkawasan again. Video after jump.
Here is a video featuring the new Mercedes Benz CLC-Class - essentially a reskinned W203 C-Class Coupe - on the go. Other than moving shots, you will see more details on the car’s exterior and interior, backed with some funky music. Video after jump.
You will find after the jump a video of the Hummer H3T pick-up truck crossing some snow… and uh, basically that’s it. A rather unexciting video of something that looks as mean as a Hummer. Watch it after the jump anyway.
This is a series of 3 videos from the Delhi Motor Show - where the Tata Nano was unveiled for the very first time to the public. Watch the videos after the jump.
This is the third video in a series of Proton Saga TV Commercials being aired on national TV now. It features a selfless doctor who chose to serve the rural community and natives in East Malaysia named Dr. Kenny Lee. The other two videos in the series featuring our Angkasawan and David Arumugam of the Alleycats are linked below in the related posts section.
