In the self-driving context, this reminds me strongly of Tesla Autopilot. Good enough to work most of the time, but likely would end up in greater overall injuries/accidents per mile if actually enabled at scale.
Waymo, Cruise, Aurora, and others are doing it the right way.
- Jupe 4y agoWell, I was driving home yesterday, and the integrated navigation map of my car was randomly rotating 180 degrees every few moments, just long enough to be noticeable on-screen, but then flipped back. I have no idea why (something in the compass integrated in the car? was GPS being hacked?). But the thought I kept having was "If I had a self-driving car, what would be the impact of this?". All I could think of was horrendous disasters for me and the other cars around me on the road.
- a_t48 4y agoA proper self driving car will have more signals for orientation than just the compass.
- lawrenceyan 4y agoExactly, sensor fusion is so important.
