    Starting off with 3d data will always be better than inferring it. Go fire up Adobe after effects and do a 3d track and see how awful it is, now that same awful process drives your car.

    The AI argument falls short too because that same AI will be better if it just starts off with mostly complete 3d data from lidar and sonar.

      Lidar and sonar are way lower resolution.

      Sonar has a hard time telling the difference between a manhole cover, large highway sign and a brick wall.

        Okay? The resolution doesn’t help apparently because Teslas are hitting everything. Sonar can look ahead several cars and lidar is 3d data. Combining those with a camera is the only way to do things safely. And lidar is definitely not low resolution.
