Not really, both USS and Radar give unreliable output. The cars you mention would all have phantom beeping from the USS and unreliable adaptive cruise where the radar suddenly doesn't see the car ahead.

The Tesla vision on the other hand works like a more focused human driver. It can remember that wheel stop is there.

Agree they shouldn't have jumped the gun with production till it was ready though.

While the USS sensors are crap they probably should keep them for things like small children playing behind cars.

Vision also gives you unreliable output. Real world is messy and hard - sensor fusion and dealing with unreliable data is bread and butter.

No one said it’s easy to build that stuff. Well, no one expect for Elon Musk to be more precise.

That last thing you want is two systems arguing about what they see.

Also its lame to downvote for disagreeing.

[justapassenger]

Do you prefer to have one system that’s confidently wrong in specific circumstances then?

Sensing of real world is really hard. Sensor fusion is a whole discipline.

Like MCAS and the 737 MAX? That system didn't argue with itself neither.

EDIT: Downvoting for disagreeing is fine, according to pg himself.

People arguing for just cameras in cars have never been outside near-ideal road conditions that California offers.

Good luck driving with cameras only in northern countries (Scandinavia, Canada) when the sun is hanging low over horizon and is reflected back at you from the road.

That’s why you put in triple redundancy…
