Forward looking is not the only place you need to do distance estimates (time really is what matters of course!!!). So parallax is not used in at least some cases. Humans of course do not need to use parallax when driving unless we’re talking about picking up the phone.
Interesting possible case of resolution limits, causing limits of perception, causing possible phantom vehicle at 5:50 in this video. (The only technical failure in this video I think, under relatively easy conditions…note the other regression is stopping
way too far back.) Watch the visualization. Or is it just a bug?
Still not a single success on Chuck’s UPL.
Maybe 11.4 will do it (note: with large error bars)!
Discuss!
But why? Is it due to lack of confidence in the vision? Or “just” a bug?
Personally I think there are plenty of examples of the vision system being very adequate and being apparently limited by decisions, and many examples of insufficient vision (not clear to me what limits it but I certainly think that increased resolution with proper increases to processing power and techniques to selectively use the resolution would not hurt).
I haven’t seen reading signs at distance being brought up (EDIT: I see this was brought up recently; didn’t read all the recent posts) but I suppose the counter argument would be that it won’t need to match human capabilities there for reasons.
