I hope this isn't a repost but I think this is right down our street>

Online automatic car designer
The program learns to build a car using a genetic algorithm. It starts with a population of 20 randomly generated shapes with wheels and runs each one to see how far it goes. The cars that go the furthest reproduce to produce offspring for the next generation. The offspring combine the traits of the parents to hopefully produce better cars. Now with the button at the bottom left u can choose to input cars and different terrains. This lets people post their results and even design a car by hand.

Give it some time at first glance I thought it was garbage.

Just started it, so far I seem to have endless spastic wheelbarrows, but as you say.., I'll give it time running in the background. (or am I supposed to have some input?)

With me it appears to never take into account the last designs. Also did the developers not consider the idea that in all permutations the wheels should be on the bottom?
