Hud?

[brianman]

I'd say HUD standard with basic operation available but higher grades get more features enabled.

The "Autopilot Safety Features" (standard) vs "Autopilot Convenience Features" (option) is the likely model for such.

Tsk, Musk augments reality all the time!

He distorts and augments....and expects it to be engineered.....

The hud will be offered as standard.

The special fighter pilot helmet hud, which augements ICE cars as baddies which you shoot with a tesla coil will be offered as an option.

I actually wasn't trying to make a joke.
I don't know why, when seeing the model 3 without instruments, that I didn't think HUD. OF COURSE Musk would be working on a fancy HUD. He probably has drawings of a spacecar with HUD from the fourth grade.

Model 3 development is probably just prototyping a Mars rover.

I just had a thought about the design of the Model 3 and how it relates to a HUD. It has been said how the hood is quite low giving the driver good visibility of the road immediately in front of the car... ...or space to include a (don't know the correct term) clear projection screen inside the windscreen upon which to project HUD information. This keeps the initial cost as well as the replacement cost of the windshield lower. If a Mazda 3 can include one of these at its price point, it doesn't seem out of reach for the Model 3 to include it...and Elon-ize it (i.e. make it more awesome than other systems). It could be a much bigger screen than the industry has seen before.

The term Augmented Vision found in Tesla Model S/X software, current Model S/X referred to as legacy:

This probably refers to lane keeping... overlaying lane lines on images coming in from the camera for lateral control of the vehicle in order to keep it in the lane (or to change lanes).

...but I'm just guessing.

Whatever it is, it is refusing to show an image on current "legacy" cars...

Do we know that it's for humans to view or for computers to process (like general computer vision systems)?

I don't think they're related to a HUD, we should let this thread die. haha

The question isn't necessarily about a HUD. It is about Augmented Reality (AR) hires by Tesla and now AR suggesting mentions in Tesla software.

It could be augmented vision on the big screen. Of course it could also be such a view is only available in debug mode for example.

"Tesla vision" refers to Tesla's computer vision solution to self driving. So I agree, if there's a visual output it's probably only used for debugging at this time similar to what was seen in the self driving demo video.

Anyway, since this is not directly Model 3 related and the HUD speculation is winding people the wrong way, I made a thread for this in the Model X subforum:
