They didn’t use it. Read the report. Their camera/lidar system saw the pedestrian but they were trying to get their disengagement rate down so they ignored it.
Everyone is using cameras! Lidar just provides more data that can not currently be obtained by cameras alone. There is zero evidence that Tesla has made their camera/radar system as good as others camera/radar/lidar systems.
So when there is a problem it's because of the camera?
Watch this Lex Fridman lesson to learn about self driving systems (41:45). You can tell he's already tilting toward Vision + Deep Learning even it was months before Tesla's latest annoucement.
Hope that video can help fix your confusion. There is no such thing as Lidar/camera system if you want to imply that's similar to the vision +DL system. That's just your invention. ICE car with battery and starter does not make it an EV.
