    Gathering more data, and being able to process it seems obvious as a way forward. How much better is this “new” LIDAR?

    Edit: seems Tesla cars doesn’t even use LIDAR…

      They did. And every other competitor does. Musk believes since humans can drive with only two eyes that cars should be able to as well. Maybe someday, but nowhere in the near future. Cameras miss too much and are easily blinded.
