The worst I have seen with sun angle recently is that the car will slow down by 5mph when the sun angle is bad. Haven’t seen any disengagements lately.LiDAR, even a weak one, might be a necessity for FSD as a backup sensor to vision.
Doesn’t the Tesla vision only solution still go temporarily blind in direct sunlight at certain angles? Something that a lidar sensor wouldn’t be impacted by?
(Also, what do we human drivers do when blinded? I certainly do not disengage, and a camera’s tolerance for pain is higher than my own).
