I have an AP1 car and a AP2 loaner (for the last month). This is just reaching parity to AP1 autopilot capabilities. AP2 has been crippled since launch.
There a few new features that my AP1 might not have like Perpendicular Autopark, but I won't know till I get it back. From what it seems it's just gotten to the level that they were with with the previous generation that was developed by or in conjunction with MobilEye.
I think they will need a hardware revision for actual full self driving perhaps 2 years away.

- manav 9y agoThere are rumors they might want to use Lidar. People have seen Tesla's equipped with Lidar, but it could be a 3rd party testing it or even Tesla doing some comparison research. Since newer sensors are become more cost effective I could imagine them incorporating them into future hardware revisions.
- taneq 9y agoCould be using the LIDAR for ground truth for training a depth-from-stereo system?
- tigershark 9y agoThey reached feature parity with the Mobileye solution starting from zero in something like 8 months. If this is not impressive then I think that we have very very different perspectives. And from now on things will only improve, and if they maintain the same fast pace I think that they are perfectly on track for their first coast to coast full autonomous drive before the end of the year.
