Those cameras are to provide a 360 view. There aren't enough of them to do a stereoscope view in any direction.

- lmm 7y agoIf true, that's easy to fix.
- 8note 7y agothere's other ways of getting a stereoscopic view. comparing multiple images from the same camera at closeish points in time while in motion for instance.
- jessaustin 7y agoI have only one eye, yet I've had no trouble obtaining a license and driving. Except in degenerate activities like ping-pong, "stereoscopic" viewing is not necessary.
- zaarn 7y agoEven with only one eye the brain is fairly capable of creating a stereoscopic image in mental space, via various cheats and tricks to get a parallax or by simply making a good guess from experience.
- jessaustin 7y agoDon't I know it! b^) Except, you know, in ping-pong and other odd situations... I really only meant to challenge the idea that lots of cameras are required. With enough processing power (and, I guess, PTZ) one camera is plenty.
- kylecordes 7y agoI wondered about this. There's a lot of conversation around the internet about Tesla cars having lots of cameras. While true, I think they need several more at least. Enough to provide stereoscopic vision in every direction. (Plus a few pointing downward, because it's embarrassing for an otherwise reasonably well featured car to not have a 360 parking view in 2020.)
