LiDAR is essentially radar that uses light instead of sound
Radar doesn’t use sound. It sounds like the author doesn’t know the difference between sonar and radar.
Yeah, it uses radio frequencies. RaDAR stands for “Radio Detection And Ranging”. It uses radio waves (usually in the microwave bandwidth) to detect things. Basically, since those radio waves are affected by the Doppler effect, you can have a computer do some math to determine the speed of whatever those waves reflected off of. Because the Doppler effect changes a wave based on how fast an object is moving relative to an observer. So if you’re a stationary observer, you can figure out how fast an object is moving relative to yourself, purely based on how much that moving object changes the waves you’re reflecting off of it.
Every wave is affected by Doppler effect.
When a car rushes your way, it’s a tiny bit bluer, a little bit hotter, it’s drivers’ phone is operating on a slightly higher frequency and it sounds higher. According to you.
That’s like all relative dude
Well… also according to most physicists.
It was set to protect human lives, so it made the only logical play.
Just need to sneak in this code
if (facialMatch(elon)) { haltAndCatchFire(); }
I will never advocate violence, but factually the entire country would be better off if that Tesla vehicle had succeeded.
Also I bet he’s more mad it was video’d and publicised.
Trust the process.
The man is a tragic waste of functioning organs. And it would be really really funny if one of his own jank ass “smart cars” ends up ending him.

Literally every single day we have idiots doing Musk’s PR work for free.
Downvote Musk spam. The billionaire doesn’t need your help ensuring his businesses stay in the 24 hour news cycle.
Counter point: If I didn’t hear how badly he runs his businesses, or how bad his company’s products are. I would have easily bought one or more of his products.
I have backed out of Tesla pre-orders because of the bad publicity, many reports of bad build quality, and terrible business decisions.
If this was a puff piece, I honestly wouldn’t have bothered posting it.
Most people on the entire planet are aware of how shitty he is at this point. Everyone that would not purchase a product related to him is already not buying said product. There’s no more people to convince. Don’t act like a white knight while degrading the content in this community.
I swear this specific community is turning more people off to lemmy than any other. These type of posts are why.

Section 49, where 64% of people either liked him or didn’t know enough about him to have an opinion.
We’re disappointed it didn’t finish the job.
Well autopilot, you know what they say. If at first you don’t succeed…
