The lockdown that a good part of the world is living these days is giving to a large number of curious experiments and Projects most surprising. Even with cars, although yes, without removing them from home.
And among those experiments there can also be, why not, dress up your wife as a cone to check if the semi-autonomous driving system of your Tesla Model 3 is able to distinguish it.
Can a Tesla be fooled?
The idea was from the youtuber Tesla Driver, specialized precisely in content of the Californian brand, and which in its latest video has tested the latest software update for this semi-autonomous driving system, capable of recognizing signs, pedestrians, cones and other obstacles on the road. And the truth is that watching this video does it really well. But Can you be fooled?
The video above shows how a very patient Holy stands in front of the car in various ways and next to several cones to check the operation of this system: wearing a cone in the hands or on the headgetting on on top of a container and even directly disguised as a cone and the results are really amazing.
With room for improvement
The experiment has gone viral to the point that it has left a reaction of its own Elon musk, who seeing the results of this test to the new Tesla system has joked that it will add a new assumption within its programming so that the car also foresees the possibility of encountering a person dressed in a cone.
All in all, there are two particularly striking cases in which this Tesla does not seem to detect, at least in this situation, what is going on ahead, and they are especially striking. We talk about the moment when the dog and the daughter Oliver Ryan appear. We could say that this vision of the Tesla does not get along with short living beings, although really in other situations we have seen the Autopilot act with note in real cases even reaching avoid accidents.
