The tanks and fuselage of the BFR will be completely made from composites, so friction stir welding is not a possibility. The process of winding the tanks from carbon fiber pre-pregs will probably look something like this. I also believe that there has been some talk about using an...

Are you really sure? How do we know that without having a clear look at tesla's driving control logic? My guess would have been that the tiles are being used but their quality is inconsistent. At least that would explain the very inconsistent performance of AP on local roads since 10.4. There...

I actually hadn't seen that video before since I only had his reddit post for reference, thanks. Now from the video it's clear that the amount of tape he placed on the front cameras was not sufficient. I can definitely conclude that his claims on reddit of AP2 only using the center fisheye...

I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or genuine... I've been reading these threads since AP2 first appeared. This is the biggest progress they have made in years. I'm genuinely curious if they may have changed something about their camera usage after said reddit thread. Can we get back on that...

And that's exactly why I'm posting this here. It's an interesting finding that possibly contradicts our current understanding of their vision stack. I don't know how privy @jimmy_d is to AP's internal workings. I don't know if there is any explicit reference to which NN runs with which camera...

That is true and I am sceptical about his procedure myself. I'm just curious if there are any hints in the code/NNs/whatever that support this claim. Because... Just for reference, someone else on TMC did a similar test some while ago, with a completely different result. If we assume that both...

Which post? I'm talking about @jimmy_d 's post from last thursday where he analyzed the 2018.10.4 NNs. He's still talking about one NN for the main and narrow cam with no mention of it being potentially also used on the fisheye cam. So how does the reddit OP's Autopilot still operate when...

I just came across this thread on reddit and I'm curious about the OP's claims. He claims that for driving only the wide angle camera is used and there's no loss of functionality when the main and narrow camera are covered. How does this fit with the things @jimmy_d and @verygreen have found...

Invisible tap zones could be awkward and visible buttons could clutter up the interface... How about this: Make the car draggable. As soon as you tap and hold the car it shows a distance indicator in front of the car together with the numerical following distance and dragging the car up or down...

The only thing that's missing is a quick way to change the following distance. They could maybe add either a new slider symbol or let you directly drag the car on the speedo to adjust that.

Which is completely understandable when you want to minimize the different configurations on the production line, i.e. everywhere where you'd need a different hardware part for a certain option. There is nothing stopping Tesla from offering TACC as a separate option. The parts for it are in...

Sooo it looks like rainsensing wipers are out now. Is this just the wide angle NN being finally activated? What do you guys think?

I just read the paper and it's essentially describing the same thing as the Delphi patent. There's also someone from Delphi quoted as a co-author... So this migth actually be the paper for exactly that delphi patent. It uses a dedicated portion of the camera's FOV together with dedicated optics...

Its actually possible to make out all the heater wires, even if just very faintly. I hope it's not just my eyes playing tricks on me, but it still seems like the bottom wire is the most in focus. It Just appears very faintly because of the focal length and the relatively small sensor...

I'll step out of the shadows and write my first post for this: @Saghost raises a very good point. There might actually be an area of the wide angle picture where drops on the windshield might be (partially) in focus... but do we have visible evidence of this? Did @verygreen take any snapshots in...
