The article on self-driving Tesla, doesn't mention its lack of LIDAR. Has the industry come into terms that Tesla will one day pull of Level 4 autonomy without LIDAR?
- 6d6b73 8y agoFSD can be done without LIDAR, but the real question is - should it be done without it? It's the same with redundancy - when I drive my car, there is no redundancy so computer based systems technically don't need it as well, but is this a smart thing to do? NO. Can FSD be done using vision only ? Yes. Would it be safer to have Vision + Lidar? Most definitely. So why Musk won't do it? Cost + Ego + Time
- taneq 8y agoIn the Telsa live stream there were several mentions of LIDAR, specifically stating that in Tesla's opinion (or at least Musk's opinion) it's a crutch and should not be used by self-driving cars.
