I think AI driver give a good summary of some of issues with the Mark Rober showcase of LIDAR.

  • Some of the bias Mark Rober friendships with the LIDAR supplier.
  • Not using Tesla full self driving
  • Being so nervous that he accidentally disables autopilot, twice.
  • The one sided view in LIDAR, with not show examples of LIDAR have issues.
  • Give a way forward to do the tests with FSD
  • Mark Rober not giving the test his full attention, fun vs scientific process

Why does no one mention why they said they dropped RADAR: Who do you trust when vision conflicts with RADAR? There were constant problems on this point. LIDAR is another redundant and possibly conflicting input.

Yup, but that's going to be true in every environment. Conflicting or noisy signals are always going to be there when you have multiple sensors. Theres going to be conflicts between pure camera systems - what if a camera sensor goes buggy and starts putting out data that says there's always a thing to the left?

More systems giving data to establish ground truth is better. Dont Boeing yourself into thinking that one sensor is good enough - that's how you kill people.

Edit: you also know how they're doing the depth detection with cameras? With AI. You know, that thing that we keep having troubles hallucinating data with. So the data it's getting from the depth subsystem isnt ground truth, it's significantly worse and could be completely wrong.
