In May 2021, Tesla officially moved from a radar-vision hybrid self-driving system to one that solely relies on cameras.
Previous to this change, Tesla vehicles, in order to execute automatic emergency breaking and for self-driving purposes, used to rely on radar to offer 160 meters of forward protection.
However, now Tesla has moved to a pure camera system the autopilot section of the EV maker’s website mentions “Powerful visual processing at up to 250 meters of range”.
This move is also consistent with Elon Musk’s vision for Tesla’s next-generation FSD system. Musk believes in order to solve real-world AI, Tesla must first solve driving using a pure vision system.
And once Tesla achieves this feat, Elon believes using other sensors such as LiDAR and radar will be redundant. And this core belief is why Musk believes Tesla has better AI hardware and software than Google Waymo.

Musk’s argument against sensors at a different sliver of the electromagnetic spectrum such as LiDAR and radar is two-pronged.
First, Elon believes our current traffic and road system is designed for a pure vision system - meaning the roads were designed for drivers to navigate using their eyes. And for any AI system to be meaningfully better than a human driver, it first needs to solve pure vision driving.
And second, for some who ask why not just have radar and LiDAR as support, Musk’s response is one, cost; and two, complexity.
Adding redundant sensors will add thousands of dollars to the cost of the vehicle ergo it will make Teslas less accessible.`
And two, these sensors generate a stream of data which will then have to be processed adding to the complexity of the AI system. This will then require more processing power and energy which makes the vehicles less efficient and more expensive.
Elon asked how many lines of code it takes to enable Teslas to drive autonomously, he answered saying that at Tesla they look at having hundreds of thousands of lines of code as a bad thing.
Musk then added that he gives one point for an engineer who adds a line of code but two points for someone who removes a line of code.
According to Tesla, the move to a pure vision system is the final hurdle before the company can release full self-driving to the wider public.
And a few days back, Musk’s and Tesla’s conviction for a pure vision self-driving system was proven right as the latest Model Y, equipped with Tesla vision, has received the highest score on the automatic emergency braking test by the Euro NCAP.
Tesla, announcing this great achievement wrote “Model Y also received a leading score of 98 percent in Euro NCAP's Safety Assist category. This result was achieved with Model Y vehicles equipped with Tesla Vision, our camera vision and neural net processing system that now comes standard in all Tesla vehicles delivered in North America and Europe. This score was a result that many did not believe was possible without using radar.”

This is well and good however, today we have received conflicting information that suggests Tesla is looking to bring back an updated HD radar to its vehicles. This information comes via @greentheonly who is the most famous Tesla white hat hacker.
While looking through Tesla’s online Electronics Parts Catalog (EPC), Green discovered a new radar has been added to Tesla’s online EPC. Following, by comparing pictures provided by Tesla on the EPC with a previous FCC filing by the EV maker, Green was able to confirm the added Tesla part is indeed an updated HD radar.
As a follow up, to surprise of nobody the picture of radar from the FCC application matches EPC pic.twitter.com/rLg01vFDjb— green (@greentheonly) September 13, 2022
Green also shared his belief that Tesla will likely add the updated HD radar to the company’s vehicles with Autopilot hardware 4 (HW4).
yes— green (@greentheonly) September 13, 2022
If you happen to be unfamiliar, Autopilot HW4 is an upcoming major upgrade to Tesla’s autopilot hardware.
Among other changes, Autopilot HW4 is expected to bring a new self-driving chip to Tesla vehicles that is significantly more efficient and powerful. Musk has previously said Autopilot HW4 will be launched together with the Cybertruck.
Nonetheless, going back to the issue at hand, given Musk’s and Tesla’s previous statement regarding the move to a pure vision system and the redundancy of radar, today’s information suggesting Tesla is planning to bring back an updated HD radar to the company’s vehicles is a bit of a head-scratcher.
As of now, this information is difficult to wrap our heads around. However, we will be sure to keep you posted once we learn more about Tesla’s plans. Until then, make sure to visit our site torquenews.com/Tesla regularly for the latest update.
So what do you think? Surprised to learn that Tesla is planning to bring back an updated HD radar to the company’s vehicles? Also, what do you think this says about Tesla’s pure vision approach to solve level 5 autonomy? Let me know your thoughts in the comments below.

I rarely share my story with people online and those I don't know, not only because it put me at the lowest point ever but because it made me a person of ridicule among family and some of my friends. I put all I had into Binary Options ($250,000) after hearing great testimonies about this new investment strategy. I was made to believe my investment would be triple, it started good and I got returns (not up to what I had invested). Gathered more and involved a couple family members, but I didn't know I was setting myself up for the kill, in less than no time all we had put ($580,000) was gone. It almost seem I had set them up, they came at me strong and hard. After searching and looking for how to make those scums pay back, I got introduced to Darkrecoveryhacks team a recovery agency who helped recover 100% of my lost funds within a month and I was very happy so message them for your lost funds/stolen crypto via this address: DARKRECOVERYHACKS @ GMAIL DOT COM

Many binary operations are rippers. I invested about $650,000 then i decided to withdraw after several week but the withdrawal wasn't successful, then I tried to contact the binary operation email and phone number, I didn't get any response from them that was when everything started looking weird. Some weeks later I got a mail from them insisting I should invest more money if I want to withdraw my money which I rejected, and I never hear from them again that was when I knew I had been scammed. I was really devastated at those moment and felt so bad that my hard earn money is gone. After some month I came across a lot of testimonies on many bitcoin site how DARKRECOVERYHACKS @ GMAIL DOT COM had helped many people recovered there stolen, scammed or duped money on bitcoin or any other form on digital currency. I contact them and they promised to help me get my money back, asked me some personal details of the scammer which I provided. The result was amazing I recovered all my stolen money back within 2 weeks I was so happy as I never believe I could get my money back.

Good morning everyone. I would rather not frighten people, but the increase in online thievery worries me. An investment fraud business that claimed a 100% return in a week conned a relative of mine. Although it is insatiable, everyone could experience it. Instead of being afraid, the first line of protection is to seek help. You can get help, that much is true. In his case, he finished his research and had the good fortune to discover a legitimate hacking group named SPYWARE CYBER. They were able to quickly seize the money from the dishonest business. I had no idea that was possible, but knowledge truly is power, as they say. In an effort to educate others, I've made the decision to impart that knowledge to others today. Additionally, you can contact SPYWARE(AT)CYBERGAL.COM to report about your stolen cryptocurrency.
Much Regards.
