And yet you watched a video of tesla vision failing by driving into a person and hose reel, and ignore that it will not pickup something low that changes after you park.
Failed? interesting interpretation. Certainly wasn't the interpretation of the person who was doing the very same testing you are now usign to try to make your argument.
The video you are using as your 'evidence' certainly didn't make any such claim. In fact he pointed out a number of instances such as the chain link fence that USS doesn't normally detect, curbs, objects at height, etc, etc.
"Driving into a person" if you need the parking assist to tell you to stop when it is clearly showing a person in front of you (ignoring the fact they are in front of your face) then there is a much more serious discussion to be had. As you also saw in the video, approaching the same person with any speed resulted in an emergency brake in every instance so a completely false claim.
The USS car also struggled with the hose reel until he lined it up directly with the sensor... (which would be the same with a tow bar, pole or any other small object) Tesla vision at least showed it until it got very close meaning any semi capable driver, paying attention would know it was there well ahead of time. Any non-biased observer would have to give Tesla Vision the win on that one also.
Not much point in discussing when you've clearly come in with your mind made up well before you've even seen the system first hand.
Without adding extra cameras, 360 view systems are at their ceiling, likewise USS have several limitations. Tesla Vision is already as good or better by any fair minded comparison in it's first iteration, there is plenty of headroom for improvements (something your video also pointed out). Your video only strengthens my argument in every way, all systems have limitations but already Tesla Vision combines some of the best of both USS and 360 view in one system and is only going to get better.
The statement he made in the very beginning of the video is certainly apt in this case, nothing should replace eyes, mirrors and common sense. Seriously if someone is claiming that you need a parking assistance system to warn them about something right in front of them and they can't observe their surroundings before they get into the vehicle, then I would have to seriously question their fitness to hold a license.
