Elon famously said 6 years ago that LiDAR is a fool’s errand and many at the time were skeptical about his claim. Now it’s becoming increasingly clear that Elon is right about the use of LiDAR. Sensor fusion is not optimal for autonomous driving, as evidenced by countless incidents of Waymo blocking intersections, getting stuck in traffic for no reason, getting confused in construction zones and even worse going in the lane of opposing traffic. In the recent testing of 36 vehicles with ADAS in China, vision-only FSD beats all the leading systems with LiDARs incorporated. This is a strong indication that the vision-only approach with the most extensively trained neural nets is the ultimate solution to autonomous driving and heavy reliance on LiDARs or sensor fusion means less reliance on software and training model, which leads to the countless traffic blocking incidents we see with Waymo. Separately, CEO Robin Li recently alluded to Baidu’s transition to vision-only approach while Xpeng is in the early stage to phase out Lidars. x.com/Cyber_Trailer/…
