Automatic landing systems for near-zero visibility landings have been available commercially for about 40 years, and even earlier for military use. For example, the first commercial jets were certified for ILS Category IIIb (less than 50 foot decision height) autoland in 1975. The Lockheed L1011 was the first wide body jet to achieve Category IIIc (zero visibility, zero decision height) certification in 1976.

Most airports don't advertise Category IIIc landings just because it means that the plane which lands in such conditions cannot see to taxi, and therefore must be towed away, which would halt further runway operations. Taxiing, unlike landing, is still a heavily manual procedure today. So practically, all Category III ILS landings have some minimums due to taxiing requirements (such as the ability to see 300 feet directly ahead), which technically makes them Cat IIIb, or somewhere between 1 and 50 feet vertical visibility decision height. I.e., you need to abort your landing if you can't see the runway at the specified minimum height.

Just thought I'd point this out in case someone read the article and thought that auto-land capability was brand new.
