LOL, remember tesla fluffers on here defending Teslas decision to remove radar and rely on cameras only, and talking smack about Lidar?

Check out at right after 14 second mark, the camera is getting blinded by sun glare.


Here is a whole thread where the glare from blinkers on the new model Y blind its cameras at night.

Tesla FSD tech is such utter scam, lol.

Crazy that they didn't realize that the blinkers would put a glare on the cameras. Doesn't seem very well thought out. I don't think the camera only system will work long term. Won't be accurate enough in all environmental situations.

och, exit this thread.

If you can’t discuss or debate EV, self-driving and Tesla topics without rude commentary then those topics are not ones you should engage in on CL.

I think its pretty clear a combination of cameras and lidar makes the most sense.

One of Musk's real failings IMO is his hubris...

Using competing manufacturers PR stunt sux though.
