Was just thinking this
A single LiDAR sensor prevents this kind of issue
Even RADAR prevents this and the cars had RADAR! They started disabling RADAR for the older cars since the new ones don’t even have the hardware installed.
Indeed there is a lidar car in the video and it works way better in many scenarios.
I'm trying to find an article that covers what I remember but I know for sure that it's been a good while since I saw the info I recall. Hopefully I can dig something up.
Something like this? https://www.forbes.com/sites/bradtempleton/2022/10/31/former-head-of-tesla-ai-explains-why-theyve-removed-sensors-others-differ/
That might actually be the exact article I'm thinking about. Thanks!
