I believe it's controlled by a sort of dead man's switch, i.e. you must continuously hold down a button for the car to move.

Literally - you stop holding it until after you are dead.

There must be additional safety features in the software to avoid collision with obstacles? Sonar sensors?

Yes, the 'hold the button' is a final liability layer on top of all of the onboard collision avoidance.

The newest version of Summon uses the cameras and I'm guessing the ultrasonic/radar to actually avoid obstacles, but is controlled by the app (you have to be holding the button down in the app)

They are one digital steering knob away from turning the whole thing into an 500 Hp RC car.

Like the car from Tomorrow Never Dies (1997), 22 years later.

Well, there's a cross-promotion I really hope one day happens. Tesla and a 20 year old movie! Yeah!

Er, the entire autopilot sensor and NN stack…
