I don't know about making their own lasers, but they are almost certainly making their own laser interlink system.

- zaroth 7y agoIf there’s one thing that SpaceX/Tesla seem to universally excel at it is their electronics / board / chip design. Listening to Sandy Munro rant about so many things he doesn’t like about how Tesla builds their cars, one thing he is awed by is their electronics. I will say that they fucked up the eMMC chip in their first gen MCU though, people are out there unsoldering, cloning, and replacing the chip to try to bring back their cars from the dead to avoid paying ~$3k for a whole new MCU.
