The most recent Eon isn't a OnePlus 3 it's a LeEco LePro 3.

I don't see how it's really irresponsible also, it is a relatively complicated set up ( getting easier all the time ), but people definitely are aware this isn't a fully fledged product and that they should be keeping an eye at all times.

I was wondering what they were using since the Oneplus3 have been discontinued for so long.

It's irresponsible because they wrote an apk that patches to a python script... They could at least have some portion written in some hardware language like C++, especially the safety check section. Also, when I first read it there was zero redundancy. They could at a minimum do a soft watchdog how ROS does it. Putting your Drive by Wire node and the logic processing all in one unit is a horrible idea. They should have one device to do the inference like the TX2 and another do the DBW (the LePro 3).

There is a microcontroller between the phone and the car that monitors all communication and enforces safety limits. This code is written in C++.
I thought the microcontroller in the middle was doing the CAN injection only. Is this no longer the case?
