A project put on by the Carnegie Mellon University Robotics Institute in 1995. They loaded up a van with cameras, computers, and grad students, and then sent it on its merry way to drive itself from Pittsburgh, PA to San Diego, CA, a road trip of some 2600 miles or so. The van managed to drive itself for 98.2% of the distance.
