MIT Submarine runs on Linux

Posted by CmdrTaco on Monday August 10, 1998 @11:58AM from the seek-and-destroy dept.

Eaglemoon sent us a link to MITs Orca-1 Submarine which apparently is run by an onboard linux system. It just won a contest that involved deploying a marker at the deepest point of a lake, while running unattended. Oh, the places Linux will go... automated subs, automated cars, the space shuttle. Ain't it cool?
