It looks like we know the tentative timeline of the Robotaxi. Tesla CEO Elon Musk says Robotaxi fleet functionality will be ready by the end of 2020 allowing Tesla owners to earn income from their Tesla vehicles. But he also said, "regulatory approval is the big unknown." Welcome back to Torque News dear subscribers and viewers. This is Armen Hareyan from
Tesla currently offers Autopilot, which is a very competent set of advanced driver assistance systems. It will work due to the new Full Self-Driving (FSD) Hardware 3 (HW3). Its processors are optimized for working with neural networks, and all systems, including video cameras and power supply, are duplicated.
The introduction of the new module will allow Tesla cars to move from point “A” to point “B” along the highway and city streets, as well as recognize markings, traffic lights, signs, people, animals, traffic accidents, garbage, and other objects.
The HW3 runs on a Tesla chip of its own design, which is installed in all-electric vehicles of the company released since April 2019 and, according to experts, is the most advanced in the world. Thanks to this, the company's cars are ahead of rivals for 6 years.
Tesla cars can predict the actions of the driver of another car and take safety measures, such as braking, accelerating, or driving away. For this, the cars of the California automaker do not use complex laser sensors - lidars, as other companies do, because they are ineffective and even dangerous during fog or heavy rain. The company relies on 8 cameras located around the perimeter of electric vehicles, radar, and ultrasonic sensors. At the moment, Tesla makes a free replacement of HW2.5 to HW3.
