What is Open Pilot?

[TonyT]

Just a few spoilers, since I'm so behind with my updates.

• Haptic feedback for lane departure warning
• Improved Driver monitoring
• Automatic Lane change
• Improved Advance Cruise and Peddle Cruise
• Lots of integration refinements

Have not gotten to drive much, my car has been at Tesla with the motor throwing a fault likely due to moisture, should be getting it back soon.

 

[TonyT]

That is good to know. Thanks for the reply. Coincidentally, I'm actually visiting Orange County for the week with the family. Nice place but all the recent rain really kept us indoors for the most part.

Would have been more than happy to let you try it, but my car has been dead

Should also add, automatic high beams are now part of OpenPilot with root.

Is there a timeline when AP1 cars will be supported? Here in the EU they have pushed new regulations that have made AP1 a lot worse. The best option for EU users would be to use OP to get there normal functionality back (and more)

Summon would really be cool on openpilot ,but my only problem is not being able to update. Hopefully they can do something about both.

 

[TonyT]

Our developers have been working really hard on a couple projects,

@Gtech We don't have a timeline for AP1 support, we do appreciate any additional assistance from skilled developers. It is still a focus and goal to have that.

@Solar40 I doubt OP will ever allow summon, the subject is forbidden at Comma.ai. If we ever have summon on Tesla OP, the support of it would come from AP1.

 

[Solar40]

Will there be any way to update after purchase?

OP is constantly updating and we actively work on merging most the updates. The system has updated a lot since I started using and continues to do so.

 

[Solar40]

Ok. Now this is sounding better. How does that work anyway. Do I have to unplug it and update my car or does it update on its own. My point is I still want to be able to update my car when I receive a software update. I’m very impressed from what I seen if the openpilot system but that was my only hang up. In the middle of trying to do a facelift on s85 but I’d like op for my next project if I can update.

Love openpilot on my car. Have been using it since December. The discord channel is the best place to get answers in realtime. Feel free to shoot me any questions you might have @Solar40 as you've been helpful with me gathering info on the facelift retrofit.

I too use OP, and have for over 9 months. This makes my car more fun to drive, then when it was new to me.
If you do not have AutoPilot in your car, go to the Discord and look at the Tesla sub channel.

 

[Solar40]

@jobiggs24 i been so inspired by all of you guys lately. Just going back and forth with everybody is starting to make this really fun. Everyone getting and adding input. We all learn to step our game up. #the Tesla fam!!

Been on OP for over a year now. Started back when we were on 0.5.x and there weren't so many Tesla users. It was already amazing back then and felt incredibly advanced, and now it's had some huge steps forward, including cables you can buy that simplify install drastically and very good ALC, LDW, and autosteer improvements. Camera watches you for paying attention so you can keep hands off wheel, and it's surprisingly accurate. Haptic LDW is also slick and reconfigurable. Even the radar install has been drastically simplified compared to a year ago. I had pain in my knee they other day so I relaxed a bit and let OP do all the effort getting to work
I wasn't going to go in, but i knew with OP I'd be able to pull it off, haha.

Man really looking a op after I finish my fascia upgrade. I have a hdmi interface. Will op still work with it or do I have to take it off op to work

AFAIK, with the older way we did OP, using the giraffe, there should be a way to make it work and keep something resembling your setup. The giraffe includes a bunch of gpio and stuff to do hdmi switching, LED controls, and other things aside from OP IIRC. The giraffe makers know a lot more about this than i do though.

 

[Solar40]

Thanks man. That would be great if to get to hook up both. I’ll check with the giraffe makers. Time to check the discord. Maybe @Flyboyn222pa might know

Flyboy makes a cable that does not need a giraffe, which works great with the eon-1.
That makes it cheaper, and the code fork for Tesla currently does not need the giraffe.

 

[Solar40]

Nice. Can’t wait to finish this refresh, so I can get started on this. First thing I need to do is get that eon.

 

[Solar40]

Now about to eon. Does it have to be for a Tesla or can any used one be programmed to a Tesla?

The only reason I decided not to get open pilot of the screen is too large. Anything that is larger than the rear view mirror can obstruct the driver's view according to the law here and can be ticketed. If a smaller screen is possible please let me know.
