Very true. Which is why I'm still waiting for what happened to all the lower level safety systems, presumably driven by lighting invariant LIDAR or RADAR systems, in the Uber situation.
The article kind of mentions:
"cyclist detection from 3D point cloud is much harder task than cyclist detection from an image"
The system didn't need to know that it was a "cyclist". There was something there, in its path. Stop.
