ABSTRACT 
This paper describes the design, development, and performance testing of an autonomous ground vehicle that was developed to participate in the DARPA Grand Challenge that was held in March 2004. The authors of this paper are members of Team CIMAR which was one of twenty five teams selected by DARPA to participate in a competition to develop an autonomous vehicle that can navigate from near Los Angeles to near Las Vegas at speeds averaging twenty miles per hour. Most of the event was held on open terrain and trails in a rocky desert environment. This paper describes the overall system design and the performance of the system at the event.
