When did Tesla have LIDAR?
- p_l 3y agoMy bad, it was RADAR, not LIDAR, with Musk explicitly saying how it was better because unlike optical systems it wasn't blocked by bad weather so much. I unfortunately don't have link about supplier dropping them - I do recall it was a bit of a scandal at the time but it quickly got overshadowed with other issues and well, FSD not working right was "business as usual"
- iknowstuff 3y agoWrong. You’re thinking of tesla dropping mobileye back in like 2014. Nothing to do with ditching radar last year
