There is no peace for Tesla and its software solutions for Autopilot and Full Self-Driving autonomous driving: in recent months Elon Musk and company have had to work hard to convince authorities, like the German ones, that the technologies are stable and safe to the point of being able to use them on the road, but it seems that in the last few days Tesla has been turning around on an important decision made no more than a few months ago. All the cars produced by Tesla from May 2021 onwards use a system based entirely on cameras, called Tesla Vision, to manage all the autonomous driving part of the car; in the past Tesla had also used radar and LiDAR, but today these technologies have been abandoned in favor of a single "visual" approach.
In the last few hours, news has spread that seems to be going in contrast to this decision: Tesla's OTA 2022.20.9 update, currently being released on Model X, Model S and Model Y,
will also be released on older Tesla models equipped with radar, although it is not explained why. this decision.| ); }
At this point it is not clear how the old Tesla will behave equipped with radar: with the arrival of the latest update, will the radars return to work and collaborate with Tesla Vision, or will the radar inputs be completely ignored by the car? It is not excluded that Tesla decides to gradually release the software to understand how it behaves on older cars.
