NEW 1 hour unedited Mobileye autonomous drive in Munich

What contraption on the roof? AFAIK, Mobileye uses 12 cameras integrated in to the car. This is what Mobileye's autonomous cars look like:

I thought they had cameras in production cars like the Nissan ones.
Ok. I thought @EVNow's post was with HD maps. It does not really make sense to ask about no HD maps since Mobileye always uses HD maps before driving autonomously. In any case, I responded as if it was with HD Maps since that is how Mobileye does it.
yes, with whatever maps they need - assuming it covers more than some trivial number of roads.

The question is highly relevant because we have seen a number of such demos from a lot of companies over the years, including Tesla. One thing they all have in common is that the vendor has completely control over the route and post-production of the video. They can make sure the NN works well on the route chosen, for eg.
 
NEWS HIGHLIGHTS FROM MOBILEYE AT CES:
  • Automated, worldwide autonomous vehicle (AV) mapping capability allows Mobileye to expand its AV test fleets; new vehicles expected in Detroit, Tokyo, Shanghai, Paris and (pending regulation) New York City early this year.
  • Intel brings its XPU strategy, expertise and manufacturing capability in silicon photonics to develop a lidar system-on-chip (SoC) for Mobileye use in AVs starting in 2025.
  • Mobileye plans a software-defined radar customized to autonomous vehicles.
  • Mobileye reveals that cars using its existing technology have mapped nearly 1 billion kilometers globally, with more than 8 million kilometers mapped daily.

Driving in NYC has to be the ultimate test. I'm surprised by that one.

So that would equal every road in the U S including Alaska and Hawaii Why is it that every time these companies mention AVs to take us anywhere we want to go they mention they are only 4 years away

AVs taking us anywhere is a has not been promised by serious AV companies very much at all. This is one of the first times it is being mentioned. And they are still not promising AVs taking you anywhere in 4 years. They are just saying they are working on a global map data and have a plan for it. And they plan to have their AV hardware ready for consumer vehicles by around 2025.

If some mobileye powered consumer AVs launch in 2025 (more than likely gets delayed), they certainly won't take you anywhere, but only approved places with enough data and validation.
 
Well he does say that everything will eventually go on the 2 eyeQ5 chips. That's just a temporary set up for their test vehicles. The final consumer product won't look like that.

Marketing #101FAIL don't show a trunk full of huge electric consuming electronics if you don't have too. Just say it will run on 2 eyeQ5 chips and flash a picture of a couple of them.
