Tempe Police Release Video of Uber Accident
How did LIDAR and IR not catch that? That seems like a pretty serious problem.It's clear from the video that a human driver actually would've had more trouble since the pedestrian showed up in the field of view right before the collision, yet that's in the visible spectrum.When I argue for automated driving (as a casual observer), I tell people about exactly this sort of stuff (a computer can look in 20 places at the same time, a human can't. a computer can see in the dark, a human can't).Yet this crash proves that all the equipment in the world didn't catch a very obvious obstruction.
