Those 12 cameras consist of 3 front-view cameras, 5 panoramic cameras, and 4 surround-view cameras. Five mm-wave radars provide 360-degree non-dead angle perception, the front radar has a detection distance of 300 meters. The accuracy of the 12 ultrasonic radar sensors is 1 cm, and the parking accuracy is 2 cm ...“God’s Eye B” provides a LiDAR sensor ... The top-tier BYD’s autopilot system is called “God’s Eye A”. It adopts three LiDARs powered by the DiPilot 600 system with the computing power of 600 TOPS." https://carnewschina.com/2025/02/10/byd-released-the-new-gods-eye-driving-assistance-system/ https://carnewschina.com/2025/02/10/byd-released-the-new-god...

    I do prefer this get the job done approach and charging the customer. If there's no/low sales due to cost, then the customers don't value the feature and it can be cut. One problem I can see with the split is that now 3 driving systems are being trained and some of them will have lower volumes of data.

  > In addition, BYD’s Xuanji architecture will be connected to the Deepseek R1 large model to improve the AI capabilities of the vehicle and the cloud. This part smells suspicious. Just like Volkswagen putting ChatGPT into their cars, this feature is likely the result of some product managers looking to put "used LLMs professionally" onto their resume.
