I think in this demo they simply paint a path for the car to follow. The cones etc are there just to help us see whether it's following the path well. If there was a cone in the middle of the path, it would've run right over it.
- thr0w__4w4y 7y agoYes, this. Not trying to take anything away from this, but this car is essentially "running a program." I would love for someone to come on here from the program and publicly repudiate what I'm about to say. I bet they ran that "dance" hundreds of times, no cones or hay or obstacles, got it to the point where it was precise and repeatable enough to then set up the cones and barriers (I mean, we have robots that place parts to within 0.001" or better repeatably). What would impress me (seriously). I go out the L.A. Colliseum parking lot, set up cones / a track that the car can definitely do (based on radiuses & turns in this video), the car "studies" the track (I don't care if a drone looks at it & takes measurements), and then the car calculates and executes a perfect path through the course the first time without hitting anything. Again, not trying to crap on this, I'm just saying that anyone who's worked in controls, automation, engine control, etc. (I've done all these & more) isn't utterly wow'ed by this. Kudos, but we didn't just put a man on Mars.

But in reality it ain't. So There is something else which seems like too hard to solve problem with self driving . I want to know what is that
