I'm not sure what kind of systems you're referring to with "monocular cameras", but if you look at the visualization in a Tesla with FSD Beta, it's actually really good at detecting the position of everything. And that's with pretty bad cameras and not a lot of compute.

Only rarely you'll see Tesla's FSD mess up because of perception, the vast majority of times they mess up is just the software being dumb with planning.
