Wait, so is non (human-) visible wavelengths not part of the autopilot system?

  Tesla, to save money, is trying to build autopilot from regular video cameras in visible spectrum. EDIT: Some models still contain other sensors, but Musk has been trying to go with purely optical for a long time.

    I really think they're going to have to consider using forward facing radar as well.

      They do. After the Florida crash, they lean even more heavily on the forward facing radar. https://www.tesla.com/blog/upgrading-autopilot-seeing-world-radar https://www.tesla.com/blog/upgrading-autopilot-seeing-world-...

    Why is this person downvoted? That is a true, relevant, and dispassionate statement.
