Ivegotthebends: I think you'll find it's not a case of mimicking only on the car's part, as you're never ensured that you're going to have exactly the same result from the same actions, and you really would have to start in EXACTLY the same spot. Being that it uses sat nav, I'm thinking that it is taught the course and then it tries to follow the pre-learned route, but using its own decisions on acceleration/breaking etc.

As rychan said, nowhere near as impressive as an a car that drives based on reading its surroundings, but still pretty cool.
