And this is an amazingly stupid statement. Humans drive with most of their senses, not just vision. In fact our proprioception plays an important role in driving.
Even Tesla's use of cameras is poor because they're monocular and fixed in place. Most humans have binocular vision and those visual sensors have multiple degrees of freedom and the ability to adjust focus.
Even if you wanted to only use vision for navigation it's irresponsible to not use binocular configurations that get more reliable depth sensing.
- BurningFrog 7mo agoThe Tesla Model Y has 9 cameras. That's enough for vastly more depth perception than any human eyes.
- FireBeyond 7mo agoNine cameras in each axis? Because the rear view cameras aren't doing anything for depth perception when driving in a forward direction.
