    Given the OP, maybe it’s not flawed vision, but close to human vision. Elon’s philosophy of trying to max out simulating people is not a great tech solution when there were better choices.

      It is fundamentally flawed. Ask experts in the area. The state of the art is nowhere near what better classes of sensors will do. This is exactly the sort of stupidity that caused iRobot to be overtaken in the home space and go down to penny stock status.

      And, yes, it comes down to Elon’s philosophy, which is often remarkably dumb.

        I believe vision-only is driven by legal issues. There will be times when vision and other sensors provide conflicting info. If a car crashes, it will be deemed at fault if the vision recording shows it made a mistake (even though other sensors induce it made the right call) - this is because any judge or jury can really only interpret the vision data. Thus there is no point is having the car make any choices other than what vision indicates.
