Greetings,
I've been around the comma community since 2019 or so. I was a contributor for a few years and decided to pick up a Model 3 as Toyota is starting to lock down CAN, anyway. I'm not very impressed by AP's performance and while single stack in the future may improve the 95% use case, lane keep and highway; I'm already tired of the FSD/Safety score garbage and I've only owned the car for a month.
Here is OP running on a pre-AP Tesla Model S:
Openpilot will work with HW3, there's a few members running it and I have the connectors, hardware coming to build my own harness for OP in HW3 Teslas.
The RetroPilot community is also working on community hardware, including getting openpilot working on Pixel 3 and other common android devices. End to end longitudinal and Navigate on Openpilot are things coming soon.
I believe I may be able to get good traffic light stop and go working (without an FSD sub), and at the least, we'll have excellent lateral (steering) control that doesn't require lane lines and can be used on unmarked, country roads. Phantom braking will also not be a thing anymore as Openpilot never had those issues, at least since 2019 when I joined.
I'll be maintaining this thread as a work log, it's going to be a month before the connectors and such come in from China, but I hope to share my work for fun, and draw some good comparisons of OP vs AP! I'm also excited to have an FSD alternative, just in case AP gets crippled from regulation or FSD crashes and burns.
Also, OP uses a camera with face detection for Driver Monitoring, no more wheel nag as OP knows when you are paying attention; something Tesla should have done a long time ago.
What you will need:
A comma three device as it can support multiple panda devices
A Panda Black with two harnesses/relays
Custom harness cables (neo/Tesla_AP2+_Harness.sch.pdf at master · commaai/neo)
2x long USB-C cables
Willingness to work in Python/C++ for tuning and implementation
The software is nearly written for controls on Tesla, (openpilot/interface.py at master · commaai/openpilot) just needs some polishing, which I'll work on as hardware comes in.
There's some really cool CAN signals available on the CAN bus, should open a whole lot of awesome functionality:
