All this time I assumed they'd have radar/lidar because that's the reasonable, obvious thing. I'm a Tesla hater and even I didn't think it was that bad.

They used to have a super cheap radar that was only designed for adaptive cruise control (Autopilot was originally just ACC and a camera-based lane keeping system duct taped together) but they have dropped radar for "pure vision," ostensibly because sensor fusion is hard (yet everyone else does it)

Their absolute insistance on real time visual processing was the moment I knew Tesla weren't serious about any of their stated automation goals.
