- nacs 11y agoI'm pretty sure the self-driving system wouldn't rely on GPS much, especially considering how inaccurate GPS can be (and that's when you can actually get a signal).
- mikeash 11y agoI believe there are two places where Tesla's system uses GPS. One is to slow down for curves in the road. I'm not entirely sure why they don't just sense the curves with the camera, but there are reports of spurious slowing due to out of date maps, and I've seen it myself when the system thinks I'm taking an exit ramp that crosses over the highway and I'm actually driving under it. Not really a problem if this gets faked out. The other some sort of input to the lane keeping system, perhaps to resolve ambiguity if the camera isn't quite sure where the lanes goes up ahead. The other sensors are by far more important in the calculation, so I don't think this would do much either. Currently, there's no connection between the route in the navigation system and the autopilot system (e.g. it won't take exits for you if you're going that way) so you can't spoof it to make it go somewhere else. Pretty much the best you could do is confuse the driver with bad directions.
