Hi, I work for Tesla and have been designing a driverless car, self-driving car!
That's so cool, I love the Tesla Model S.
Yes the Model S uses a number of techniques to detect its surroundings. Very cool.
I know, Tesla's cars are super advanced.
Self-driving car
A self-driving car, also known as an autonomous car, driverless car, or robotic car, is a vehicle that is capable of sensing its environment and moving safely with little or no human input.
Self-driving cars combine a variety of sensors to perceive their surroundings, such as radar, lidar, sonar, GPS, odometry and inertial measurement units. Advanced control systems interpret sensory information to identify appropriate navigation paths, as well as obstacles and relevant signage.
Long distance trucks
Model S vehicles, in order to check for a possible defect in the cars' front seat belt assemblies. The problem was raised in early November by one customer in Europe. Tesla's resulting investigation was unable to identify a root cause for the failure, and the company decided to examine every single car. Tesla reported that there have been no accidents or injuries related to the problem.
- On January 20, 2017, Tesla recalled Model S from 2012 in January 2017 due to defective Takata airbags. Cars manufactured later
