    Let's talk radar!

    This is pure speculation but someone mentioned Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR). I asked some radar guys and they doubt that such a sensor is close to series deployment or could even exist as working prototype. A couple of years ago some professor built one as DIY project. Note that the radar...

    Tesla autopilot HW3

    If you have a look at the 2018 disengagement statistics UPDATE: Disengagement Reports 2018 – Final Results you will notice some companies have stopped to reporting their disengagements. Apple (because it was bashed because of being last ) now reformulated into reporting only "important"...

    Haha journalist demos? On one handpicked piece of route they have driven a thousand times and optimised for? Do I need to say more?

    As a typical usable forecasting horizon is ~ 1-2 seconds, I highly doubt that. Their media center "the driver has about 10 seconds to respond, depending on the situation" communication leaves good room for interpretation and for lawyers :)

    Tesla autopilot HW3

    Level 3 is also ill defined. Its usefulness very much depends on how much advance-warning time for a takeover the manufacturer guarantees. If it is 3 seconds, it is as useful as autopilot. I highly doubt they would guarantee more, maybe someone has numbers?

    Audi's Level 3 "ready" system still has no regulatory approval in the EU and works only up to 60 km/h if driving directions are hard separated.

    @Bladerskb what is your area of expertise?

    Them US-spec cars wouldn't be deemed safe to drive in good ol Europe.

    Firmware 9 in August will start rolling out full self-driving features!!!

    @Bladerskb Where exactly is that documented? "as already been documented with comparison of raw inputs coming from the 2014 EyeQ3 (AP1) vs AP2 (November NN)"

    I have heard end of Q1 and April. Some assume the models currently produced for Europe already carry HW 3.0 inside them.

    It doesn't really require much more computation to sneak a couple more classes in the classification head of some object detection network.

    An interesting read indeed. I'm not surprised about many of these issues, most of these seem to be explained by the current absence of a proper driving strategy. Some sanity checking seems to be remarkably absent, I wonder if they re-started from scratch when developing NoA. However, concerning...

    @Bladerskb Please point us directly to the post where wk057 said that: Vehicle detection to the sides and behind your vehicle is complete garbage.... It would surely be interesting to read. I couldn't find the original post googling some parts of it. Couldn't pick it up from a quick glance...

    @Bladerskb Have you ever really worked with ME's data? If you had, you would probably know better. Imho Teslas latest 3D vehicle pose estimation is about on par with the current ME offering, maybe even less yaw jittery. Teslas lanes seem even a bit further reaching and more stable. ME may be...
