A terrible design decision that Elon Musk made more than a decade ago is once again biting Tesla in the behind. As The ...

YouTuber Mark Rober tested Tesla's Autopilot against a LiDAR-equipped car to assess its obstacle detection. Tesla's Autopilot struggled in extreme fog, rain, and painted wall tests, unlike the ...

Mark Rober’s Tesla video was more than a little weird. The former NASA engineer wanted to test how Tesla’s camera-only approach to self-driving stacks up against lidar.

Rober put the Model Y, which has Autopilot technology relying on cameras, head to head against a Lexus RX-based prototype fitted with a lidar. Autopilot passes the first two tests, which include ...

Practical comparison of Ford BlueCruise, GM Super Cruise, and Tesla Autopilot, featuring performance scores, real-world ...

Instead of adding sensors such as lidar to its cars, Tesla relies on cameras for Autopilot and Full-Self Drive, which could be the system's greatest flaw By Owen Bellwood July 30, 2024 11:35 am EST ...

Tesla's Autopilot struggled in extreme fog, rain, and painted wall tests, unlike the lidar systems. Elon Musk has criticized lidar in the past and argued that camera-based tech is sufficient for ...

Tesla Autopilot collided with a painted road on a fake wall located in the middle of the road. This happened during a test comparing cameras and lidar. Most companies developing autonomous driving ...

Tesla Autopilot drove into Wile E. Coyote-style fake road wall in the middle of the road in a camera versus lidar test. While most companies developing self-driving technologies have been using a ...

Rober is convinced the culprit for the crash in his case resides in Autopilot’s lack of Lidar sensors. Lidar, which stands for Light Detection and Ranging, works by sending out millions of laser ...
