Honestly, valid point. I will accept delivery of it when the time comes (though I did email the delivery center when this news broke and asked to be matched with a fully functional car if possible).
I hope that vision is able to see vehicles that humans can also easily see. This case is easy in that the front vehicle is much taller than the rear vehicle. Never the case radar was advertised as being advantageous for. If those vehicles were swapped, do you believe vision could have done that? To me "superhuman" means the system can do something a human cannot, not just that it's starting to do what humans can.
This video from 2018 clearly shows a vehicle in front of an SUV that no camera could see.
Thank you for sharing this, amazing!
First Drive: Tesla Model Y with Tesla Vision and Autopilot [VIDEO] - TeslaNorth.com
Canadian DaxM (@Tesla_Talks) has shared a first look at his new Tesla Model Y delivery without radar. Tesla stated new vehicles produced from April 27 onwards would no longer have radar, but rely only on cameras for Autopilot, with what it’s calling Tesla Vision...teslanorth.com
Got it. Radar can see under/past a small SUV, but who cares, it can't see past the large truck that vision can't see past either.
Agreed- Same goes for any reference video from a car with radar as well. It's about how they behave, not what they show.
What is dumb is thinking cars made until May 2021 won't get City FSD / NOA.
I just hope my insurance company doesn’t base their safety-feature discounts on the NHTSA report. If they still see a list of missing functionality when they add the policy, then I don’t imagine I’ll have an easy time convincing them later on that it exists.
Dude, did I ever say "won't get?" I'm saying we likely won't be at the front of the line for TeslaVision FSD. It sounds like Tesla chooses not to simply ignore radar to put all HW3 variants at parity,. This suggests that won't happen until the feature sets of Tesla Vision reach parity +/- radar.
I noted that from the video too. Sounds like things are occurring like what I said. The features are still present, just that they have not been tested to pass the regulatory standard.
Can anyone point me to the law/regulation/policy that says NHTSA won't consider a function to be AEB unless it has passed a specific test, and what that specific test is? It would be interesting to see what Tesla is unable to currently prove they do, which they were able to prove before.
