all consumer cameras, like the one on your phone have an IR blocker, basically it blocks IR light to produce a human looking image. Tesla has removed that blocker and so the camera can see in IR aka the heat signature. You can test it with your phone, open the camera app and point it at the front of a TV remote, then click a button on the remote and you'll see a light through the phone camera but not with your eyes.

Either LEDs manufactured specifically for outdoor night vision cameras or just an IR LED cluster you built\wired yourself. Grab a flashlight, aim it at one of the cameras, assuming you have a means to see what the camera can see, push some buttons on the remote and test if the cameras have IR filters installed (maybe stating the obvious, but you'll see light coming from the remote. Test on a cell phone camera if you need a demo). Knowing Musk, probably no filters...

Not really. Deriving depth data and mapping that data onto a 3D representation of the surrounding is much easier to do with Lidar than vison, which makes it seem like the surefire move to go 100% self driving. Tesla however is ahead in the game in that regard and due to their software advantages have already more or less figured that tech out, as they have shown multiple times. LIDAR has its own shortfalls that vision doesn't and thus needs vision to be solve self driving . Those include Lidar data not giving any other tangible information other than depth leading to many restrictions regarding weather usability for ex(a snowflake has the same "signiture" and opacity as a brick wall). Thus, as said in the vid, even if you understand how far everything is away from you in a Lidar dotmap, you still need to figure out what is what and how to navigate those obstacles correctly using vision. The car still needs to understand that for ex. a plastic bag is a plastic bag and not a stone, which Lidar cannot do, so focusing on vision 100%, rather than wasting time building and implementing additional sensors is the way to go if you truly believe to be capable of reaching that lvl of autonomy. Using Lidar as a training device is more or less there to verify the findings of the vision system and doesn't mean that it is superior per se. As Musk said, if you can drive pretty well with 2 slow cameras as we do with our eyes, then it should be possible with 8 superhigh refreshing cameras.

The issue is that once cars become much safer any one accident will be much more rare and therefore more scrutinized (more like airplane crash today, with some kind of black-box cloud record of the crash) . The issues involved by then can be very subtle and solutions are now hard to foresee, certainly past the boundaries of human driving capability and perception, which puts Musks argument at question already today.

Please let people see this comment. The reason Lidar is so hated by Elon, is because he has already sold one million+ "self driving" cars that do not have LiDar built in, just cameras. He hates it because he didn't foresee it being so use full and its too late for him to use it

You’re right - my bad!

Never corner yourself with just one tech.. prices will change.. no harm having both..

Just a question. Camera data processing involves a lot of computation especially since a lot of ML is needed like CNNs while radar signal processing is relatively less complex. Then why do Tesla still believe that Cameras are the future, what advantage do we get by using sensors that use more complex signal processing?

Well computer vision probably can get as good as a human driver but I think with radar and lidar data it can be even safer than a human

Driving and vision are different. Humans are bad because they are bad at communication and maintaining speed or safely accelerating, Driving would be math and math is perfect. If they could perfect their Tesla Vision Technology.

Great vid!

2 cameras lined up can guess the relative distance, plus, lidar can be unable to measure in fog, rain and snow, a good ai with camera plus radar can even go farther from lidar

Currently, as of June 2021, inside Tesla's codebase, it still uses if-else to handle corner cases.

@@silicitimmm it’s true because I wrote it, my boss approved it and the team knows about it. Nothing significantly wrong it’s just a man made software and computer vision and artificial intelligence can never be 100% intelligent. There’s no single published paper on AI ever in history can be perfectly accurate so human intervention in corner cases are inevitable. And that’s the limitation of not receiving physical signals from the real roads, which LIDAR can easily taken care of. And Musk’s interpretation of how human eyes work is simply wrong and too naive.

Elon Musk and Tesla are jumping to the vision mode early due to the limited supplies / computer chip shortage affecting their ability to add radar to their vehicles now (and in turn to keep prices lower)

I'm glad LiDAR has finally grown on Musk. Now that it is affordable, it makes WAY more sense.

it’s an extra 10,000 for self driving on a Tesla. When I get mine one day .. I would rather get the longer rage than self driving, or just save 10,000 bucks on a Standard range model 3. I am more than capable of driving it myself. Heck, I already feel like I am on autopilot when driving to work 😂.

For those situations auto pilot fails (which runs on cameras) maybe we should think are the road signs and geometries in those safe enough for regular drivers? Maybe the roads are not safe, not the cameras (or using cameras instead of Lidars)

That's a stupid way of thinking. The car should be able to safely drive through any environment. LiDAR is needed for that.

Hey guys when we focus on every hypercar there are lot of factor gliches on sensor for a sensor we need more precise and multiple feedback system wheras lidar is also advancing It is good idea to use lidar with camera and other sensors

Cindy you missed this. Elon has said he's not against LIDAR in general. They Use LIDAR on SpaceX Dragon capsule to autonomously dock with International space station! He told that LIDAR in Self-driving cars doesn't makes sense. I really think he knows what he's talking about!

I have an upmarket dashcam that is supposed to warm me if I am drifting out of a lane and if I am too close to a car. On average it warms me I am drifting out of my lane twice in 10 kilometers both times it is as I pass a right-hand turn lane. The warning of traveling too close varies with the colour of the car. No way would I want to sit back and use this as part of a self-driving system.

Elon chooses not to use lidar and to drop radar is to reduce the cost. As AI thru camera cannot recognize what’s in front and thought it’s safe then proceed w full speed, it will cause the accident or collision become deadly. A safety related system without build-in secondary redundancy verification is just stupid.

It's not an issue as to if it can be done. Humans do it so it can be done. The issues is can you fit the amount of CPU horsepower needed to do it into a car. I'm not going to say one way or another now. But for sure it will be the case some day.

Yes you can, in fact having more sensors requires wayyyy more processing power, especially if you're using LiDAR. Processing power is definitely not an issue, Comma ai is literally doing partial self-driving using an off the shelf android phone.

@@harsimranbansal5355 If you where just joking ignore the rest of this. It seems you don’t understand the actual problem space. That’s fine. Most people haven’t worked in AI and just believe the weird stuff KZread/Media claim about it. LiDAR is not relevant. It doesn’t help at all in the actual problem space. It’s use is not for driving the car, it’s for a safety override in case the AI that drives the car gets it wrong. It’s fine for test vehicles but in the real world it doesn’t work because of all the false positives you get. If your interested in the topic here are some suggestions of things to get under your belts to get started on the subject. Look up the difference in cpu power between a computer reproducing a picture via a camera and its power/time needed understanding what it’s taken the picture of. Look up how LiDAR actually works. To get around the false positive problem they are pumping the lidar into an ai so the car can at least get down the road. This is because lidar takes fancy pictures with extra info and does nothing to help with the understanding problem. So, self defeating really Look up the impossible tasks of driving. (humans or ai). For example, as he roads are laid out it is impossible not to have crashes. Look up the Tesla’s CPU size, which is 100% used and compare that to the 80 20 rule. Sure you could say that 14% of the trips will not end in crashes. But that’s no where near good enough. If you bring the maximum speeds of everything down to say 3 mph maybe they could the crash rage to below 1% with existing hardware in a reasonable time frame. Anyway, ones you get that stuff under your belt you’ll at least start to get an idea as to why Tesla's sometimes what to head for a guard rails and why fixing that isn’t as simple as saying, tell it not to crash into guard rails.

Even overhyped AI can't remotely compete with the human brain's pattern recognition ability. That's why we can we can drive safely even with our poor eyesight. Autonomous vehicles have to compensate by relying on other sensor inputs - and LiDAR provides the data overlay. Tesla cannot afford to retrofit its lineup so they are doubling down, but new EV makers (incl legacy brands) don't have this issue. Sometimes it's strategic to not be the first - which is how Apple typically wins in tablets, watches etc.

Still, AI isn't magic - it relies on data inputs, and removing an important LiDAR data overlay greatly diminishes output predictions. As for AI - which is still really an expert prediction system - it is orders of magnitude away from the human brain's pattern recognition. For instance, potholes vs paint patterns on a road.

They mentioned their mistake in a pinned comment.

I drive my tesla almost everyday and I don't depend on autopilot in the area which is pretty much a hood ( city of San Leandro and Oakland California). We have too many ghetto drivers who drive recklessly all the time here so you really need to keep you eye open and watch out for other cars. We have people who try to race, cross red lights and cut off others while looking at the phone at the same time. The drivers in the hoods are the ones you always want to watch out for. I would drive a tank or a heavy duty hummer if I have to just to protect your self from these crazy drivers.

What happens if there's a fog.. Some places have a sense fog.. Would the car keep up if you are caught driving in a bad snowstorm or heavy rain

LIDAR is great for an emergency braking system. It's completely useless for actual self-driving. It can't read signs, it can't see road lines, it can't understand lights, it can't recognize people. It's a great shortcut if your end goal is a Level 1, maybe Level 2 system, where the most you really want your car to do is hit the brakes and not crash into things. If your goal is full self driving, level 4 or 5, then you're going to have to develop intelligent camera systems anyway. By the time the camera AI systems are good enough to do level 4 or 5 stuff, LIDAR will be completely redundant long before that.

The lidar sensors on phones are far more limited than that used on cars. but your point does stand somewhat especially considering that Surveying Grade Lidar Units (which are above that used for cars) have also come down considerably in price.

Isn't the real reason that he was told he could not use radars in his dumb tunnels and that's when he stopped installing them?

What about rain, snow or sand on those cameras? Radars etc don't get distorted like a camera lens from stuff like that.
