    Fulbright-Hays Seminars Abroad Automobility in China Dr. Toni Marzotto “The mountains are high and the emperor is far away.” (Chinese Proverb)1 Title: The Rise of China's Auto Industry: Automobility with Chinese Characteristics Curriculum Project: The project is part of an interdisciplinary course taught in the Political Science Department entitled: The Machine that Changed the World: Automobility in an Age of Scarcity. This course looks at the effects of mass motorization in the United States and compares it with other countries. I am teaching the course this fall; my syllabus contains a section on Chinese Innovations and other global issues. This project will be used to expand this section. Grade Level: Undergraduate students in any major. This course is part of Towson University’s new Core Curriculum approved in 2011. My focus in this course is getting students to consider how automobiles foster the development of a built environment that comes to affect all aspects of life whether in the U.S., China or any country with a car culture. How much of our life is influenced by the automobile? We are what we drive! Objectives and Student Outcomes: My objective in teaching this interdisciplinary course is to provide students with an understanding of how the invention of the automobile in the 1890’s has come to dominate the world in which we live. Today an increasing number of individuals, across the globe, depend on the automobile for many activities. Although the United States was the first country to embrace mass motorization (there are more cars per 1000 inhabitants in the United States than in any other country in the world), other countries are catching up.

  • Facts Guide 9/18/17, 243 PM
    Facts Guide 9/18/17, 243 PM 2017 Fit Facts Guide INTRODUCTION The Honda Brand At Honda, dreams have been instrumental to our success from the very beginning. Today, those dreams are reflected in our automobiles. In the 21st century, the power of Honda’s dreams will continue to lead to new insights and new technology. Examples of turning dreams into reality include the zero-emission Clarity Fuel Cell sedan slated for production in 2016, and the Accord Hybrid—which features Honda’s 2-motor hybrid system. These vehicles help ensure Honda’s position as a manufacturer of some of the cleanest automobiles in the world. The imagination of Honda engineers exceeded earthly limits by pioneering a new type of jet aircraft—the HondaJet®, the ultimate in advanced light-jet travel that consumes far less fuel than other conventional jets in its class. And let’s not forget ASIMO®, a Honda robot that walks, talks and sings—and serves as an advanced study in mobility to inspire out-of-the-box thinking. Honda’s innovative spirit is alive and well. It’s evident in a wide variety of products. And as Honda continues to innovate, those products will continue to improve lives—which is what the Power of Dreams is all about. Design Concept Since the first-generation Honda Fit arrived for the 2007 model year, it has built a strong heritage on a solid foundation of smart thinking that has always exceeded expectations. Its loyal owners tend to become enthusiastic promoters of the Honda brand.

Abstract In December 2013, sixteen teams from around the world gathered at Homestead Speedway near Miami, FL to participate in the DARPA Robotics Challenge (DRC) Trials, an aggressive robotics competition, partly inspired by the aftermath of the Fukushima Daiichi reactor incident. While the focus of the DRC Trials is to advance robotics for use in austere and inhospitable environments, the objectives of the DRC are to progress the areas of supervised autonomy and mobile manipulation for everyday robotics. NASA's Johnson Space Center led a team comprised of numerous partners to develop Valkyrie, NASA's first bipedal humanoid robot.
