Just installed this on my Ioniq 5. Truly game changing and superior to stock HDA.

[@RyanHawley76]

I've had my comma 3x in the gv60 for a few months now and I will never buy an unsupported vehicle from now on 🤘

[@melissamiller607]

I’ve had the Comma 3x from when it first came out. It was the BEST money that i have ever spent. I don’t want to drive without it now.

[@TheIoniqGuy]

I’m starting to feel the same way!

[@easternpa2]

Nice overview, thank you. I used OP back in 2019 but got rid of it (and the car) when the pandemic ended my commute a year later. I recently picked up a '21 Sonata Limited and ordered a 3X the same day. Two weeks later, I took it on a 2,000-mile road trip. It's so nice to be back in the saddle.

[@ericanderson1753]

My wife couldn’t believe we were spending $1k on something so silly as the Comma 2 when we got it. She was not into the hype. A couple years later she will totally disqualify a vehicle in a purchase decision if it isn’t supported by Openpilot. Everyone who experiences Openpilot for themself as a driver understands. Unfortunately, it seems it takes that.

[@Livinghighandwise]

Same with my wife lol.

[@celinepark6855]

this is fantastic!! thank you!!!

[@DmitryKan68]

Thanks, Corbin. Getting C3 now after finding your endorsement. Been looking at it for a while now but felt like factory HDAS was sufficient. I solved "Hands on the wheel" nagging problem by attaching half-pound wrist exercise weight to the steering wheel. But during my last 800 miles trip from Boston to Quebec I discovered that HDAS (besides usual shortcomings of not reading half-visible lane markings) would often oversteer itself crossing inner line. And I wasn't even going above speed limit. It would start beeping at me as in "you are crossing the line!" but would not correct itself. I drive 200-300 miles a week on highways so hoping C3/Sunnypilot will make my life with Ioniq 5 even more fun.

[@TheIoniqGuy]

That's awesome! I'm truly missing it in my Ioniq 6 since I've been driving that a lot more lately than my Ioniq 5. Apparently the SE trim with HDA 1.5 isn't supported yet (praying it does soon) so I can only use it in my Ioniq 5 SEL. Had I known this, I would have likely gone for an Ioniq 6 SEL just for SunnyPilot.

[@howardscho3809]

I found HDA works great on local roads as long as there are lane markers on the side. I drove a road in Alabama with lots of S Trurns at 50 mph and it was amazing.

[@ncironhorse8367]

Probably the best demonstration of HDA and Openpilot.

[@fredrose111]

this looks really good. what do you think are the possibilities that this could complete with tesla, making left turns, tricky navigations, doing an entire trip with no supervision? I have been quite satisfied with hsa 2 but sometimes it doesn't want to slow down and other times speeds up really fast. thanks for these videos. btw i have an ioniq 6

[@Draconis8888]

Wow! Thanks for the review and showing us your experience. It looks super promising. If I was driving more, I'd really consider getting one. How does it deal with stop and go traffic?

When navigating, do you put the destination into the actual Comma 3X device? Or does it connect with the onboard nav and/or Android Auto? Or directly with your phone?

[@StachelyPigglyBottom]

Hope you'll try some of the more advanced features and report back. Appreciate not everyone wants those but if I'm dropping $1k+ on this you better believe I'm going to use it to it's full potential.

[@TheIoniqGuy]

Oh I’m definitely going to. This was supposed to be a first look video that doesn’t get too nerdy because many people wanted my opinion before they spent that much. I wanted to get it out before the sale ended but unfortunately, the sale ended today. I need some dev help to figure out how to activate some of the more advanced features

[@tommyboy7589]

Try frog pilot fork

[@58586stefan]

Hopefully with your visibility we'll be able to get the Ioniq 6 fully supported like the 5. I agree it's still an amazing system. But without Longitudinal control it's a little jerky at times. Thanks as always Corbyn!

[@StressedDesserts]

Can you do some testing in inclement weather? Like a decent rainstorm? I’ve had issues with HDA on highway in rain where it falsely deactivates because of false sensor readings.

[@targetpace2680]

can you compare the accuracy of the lane centering and the the smoothness of the steering input to HDA? Would it improve the cruise control responsiveness?

[@fredrose111]

when are you doing an update with any new features (like an in town drive)? when are you doing the longer trip wit the I6? thanks

[@DmitryKan68]

Got my Comma 3X yesterday, had to wait excruciating 24 hrs for windshield mount to bond and took it on the road today. Holy smokes! Even without going trough advanced settings and learning about different drive models - this thing blows factory HDA2 out of the water! It actually does start to feel like an autopilot!

[@AlexRobinett]

It’s a lot better on twisting roads in experimental mode. You can still only engage steer and control throttle in that mode. Be warned it does disable auto emergencies braking.

[@TheIoniqGuy]

Shoot me an email at [e-mail]

[@KayvonJavid]

I have had my Comma 3 for over a year with Sunnypilot in my 2020 Sonata Limited and it works amazingly better than most first party driver assistance systems. Sunnypilot is tailored for Hyundai’ and Kia’s.

[@garyclark6747]

So I would assume that it’s either spoofing the HDA requirement of a torque input on the steering wheel or it is putting one in on what it knows to be the periodic basis that it’s requiring it. Makes me wonder if that’s what was happening when it was changing lanes on the highway. Nice review but honestly, I give a regular input for HDA based on my desire to be in a slightly different positions in the lane with surrounding traffic or potholes, etc. 12:37

[@ArshadKazi]

I've been looking for someone to do exactly this comparison. I have the Ioniq 6 with HDA2 and wanted to see if it will be worth the purchase.

[@pauldirschka7052]

The Hyundai feature I most use and appreciate is the adaptive cruse with its excellent stopping capability behind a leading vehicle. Auto braking does not seem useful unless adaptive cruse is enabled. How well does the 3ed party Comma system implement auto breaking?

[@Justin_Maldo]

With the exception of certain software forks, use of the comma will retain most safety features like automatic emergence braking and radar cruise control just like normal.

[@atomhayts]

Wow I'm surprised how well sunnypilot drops the speed on turns and have it not be experimental mode. It does shoot a few messages but that's still a big win for sunnyh. I usually drive on exp when it's not a highway so I'm super impressed they can do that on chill.

[@TheIoniqGuy]

I was controlling speed on the real twisty roads at lower speeds. The higher speeds though were SP. I think it was just holding set speed at higher speed

[@PeterKyllesbeck]

HDA 2 can only be activated on 'highways' or similar classified roads (basically roads with no cross traffic) In the manual 7-109 it states: "The Highway Driving Assist is available only on controlled access road of certain highways. (except for the interchange/junction) 􀃃 Controlled access road indicates roads with limited entrances and exits that allow uninterrupted high speed traffic flow. Only passenger cars and motorcycles are allowed on controlled access roads. 􀅛􀀃 Additional highways may be expanded by future navigation updates." Here in Denmark (EU) the my22 IONIQ 5 only middle and upper trim had HDA 2 - the lowest just HDA Currently, you have to pay extra for HDA 2 (all trims)

[@volcalstone]

I've heard of Comma for a while now and had many chances to get their products but didn't pull the trigger due to its price and other factors like if i trust it enough. I don't trust FSD at its current state like for example in Telsa cars. The Comma 3X looks great tho but it's still not 100% there yet for me. I still might get it but I just wish it was better intergrated with the car. It would be awesome if they could separate the cameras from the device. I would perfer just mounting the cameras on the top like the fitcamx. If a wire needs to go down to the ODB port then that's fine but I wish we could just use our own phone as the display. If not then fine provide a display that we could mount elsewhere like on the left side of the windshield. I currently have HDA2 on my EV6 GT and it's decent but could be better. LKA should only need ro rely on one marker and not two. It seems so 2010 and not so much tech of the 20s. Please do more videos and night time driving as well.

[@khandkepravin]

Can you please post the video of open pilot vs side car?

[@javi3830]

Does this have an application? Say if you are at home, can you remote start it?

[@richardweiss6181]

This is pretty cool. Thanks for sharing it. How did you find the navigation software? Also, how are the maps updated? Do you have to do it manually, or is there a way to update them over the air? I’m interested in seeing how it integrates with the instrument cluster display. For example, do you get images of the surrounding vehicles as you do with HDA2?

[@TheIoniqGuy]

I haven't tested automatic navigation yet. I need some help from a dev to figure that out as there really isn't a whole lot out there that I can find. You can download an area and update maps like you do with google maps for remote use. You still get the images of surrounding cars as you do when not using the Comma.

It integrates with the car's safety functions. For example: the Comma 3X doesn't have its own radar sensor so for distance control, it's still using the cars radar based system.

[@easternpa2]

@@bixkoh3193 far better in most ways, but worse in others. You never know when bad map data will cause FSD to decide your lane is going to end, forcing it to change lanes for no reason at all. OP is like the best lane centering system out there but not much more than that (yet).

[@angelamorley9921]

If you have the fitcam x dash cam that replaces the upper Shell behind the mirror, can you still use this, system installing this In the center would block the dash cam, I wonder if you can put this system off to the side of the pillar?

[@TheIoniqGuy]

It has to be centered. It’s always recording when the car is moving so it’s more or less a dash cam

[@SFzip]

At 9:50, the comma's hesitation to complete the lane change might have been because the white car from the adjacent lane was quickly approaching on the left. This theory hinges on the fact that comma uses the blind spot proximity sensor for making lane changes.

[@TheIoniqGuy]

That could definitely be a possibility. I still don’t have enough mileage to have a frame of reference for these little things

[@Cory182]

Yes, it does use the car's built-in sensors and you can see the status of them on the screen. If there's someone in your blind spot, it will put a red shaded area on the screen next to the edge of the lane.

I am waiting for the Tesla model Y version they are in final stages of wiring harness, so likely mid summer.

Not sure if you've been following along in Discord, but the HW3 for 3/Y is out.

[@jamesa4289]

Did you ever try the experimental features? I have a new Ioniq 5 SEL with HDA2 and got a Comma 3x. Both SunnyPilot and Open Pilot (Master vs stock) seem to work well for basic lane centering, etc. but I cant get speed sign recognition or stop light/stop sign recognition to work in experimental mode at all which is disappointing. SunnyPilot wants to make intersection turns when navigating but wont slow down for stop signs etc so I have to cancel and intervene at each intersection which defeats the point. OP says it can do this but I dont see anyone on the Discord community saying how its supposed to work. If you happen to figure it out please make a video (for all Hyundai HDA2 users!) Thanks.

[@TheIoniqGuy]

No I haven’t had time to mess around with the comma lately but it’s something I’ll be playing with when I have more time over the coming months

[@AndriesTom]

Thanks to your presentation, we've got a Comma 3x. Just received it, so no experience yet. Did my first highway drive yesterday (IONIQ5 as from April 12th) and it's overall a great experience. But I can't see why automated speed adjustment would be limited to the highway where speed is almost always 120, while on secondary roads it varies all the time between 30 (school environment), 50 (city env), 70 or 90 km/h. Also, why not stop/start for red/green light? I hope the comma 3X delivers more if those features handsfree ...

[@TheIoniqGuy]

Most of these features are available when you move into experimental mode. I personally haven’t played with them but they are there. Are you running SunnyPilot?

[@AndriesTom]

Do you have a recording of installing the hardware? PS: I'll get the FitcamX too, another one of your recommendations ...

[@allenbaylus3378]

I do not like that the company basically has no support - no chat/phone - espically on pre-sales questions. You have to have an order id and a dongle id number in order to process any questions. Looks nice - 1250 plus 200 for the cable is a bit much to sink into a product when some of the features are already supported in the product. And with limited ways of contacting them it feels like I will have the same issue when the Comma 3 has its first issues. Plus - the nag screens for touching the steering wheels are required by law - that is one of the big complaints about Tesla FSD - that the camera cand steering wheel sensors can be easily tricked.

[@easternpa2]

Their Discord is very busy and you can find help any time day or night.

[@Rhynri]

How much does it interfere with your ability to see out of the windshield? One of my hangups with the comma is that area happens to be where I look to see cross traffic at intersections - I wish they would divorce the display from the cameras so I could put the main body elsewhere.

[@TheIoniqGuy]

It certainly blocks the view a bit but not enough for me where I wouldn’t use it because of it. That would be cool is they could have a remote camera pod that takes up less space

[@neilcollins7371]

Does it have to be center mounted or can it be calibrated to be off center? I have the fitcamx dashcam for my Ioniq5 and Im worried mounting it in the middle of the windscreen will block the dashcam. Are there any suitable solutions to this issue? Thanks for the great video.

[@TheIoniqGuy]

The instructions say to mount it in the center of the windshield. You could attach it directly to the FITCAMX if you wanted to it would just hang down a bit lower which would impede forward visibility. The Comma is also more or less a dash cam as it’s always recording when it’s running

[@neilcollins7371]

@TheIoniqGuy ah, if it's always recording and you can take off the recording then that totally takes away that issue. Great to know and thanks so much for the quick reply.

[@TheIoniqGuy]

OpenPilots focus is self driving. They’re not going to give up processing power to that especially since it’s not an EV specific device

[@Cory182]

The OBD2 cable is only needed for fingerprinting the car during initial setup and for keeping the c3x powered for a period of time after turning off the car. If you remove the OBD2 cable, it will still work with power from the camera harness, but it will need to do a full reboot every time you turn the car on, and it won't be online to upload videos and such once you turn the car off.

[@TheDraconiuslives]

Does it use all the other cameras and sensors, so therefore it knows it's safe to change lanes, etc?

[@Cory182]

It only uses its own cameras, but it does use the car's sensors

[@Justin_Maldo]

Blindspot monitoring can prevent/delay lane changes, but this all boils down to software and driver customizations. If you as a driver allow the system to ignore them, it will make in safe lane changes. On the other end, you can block lane changes too.

[@jahanzebkhan4135]

can it make normal cruise control to adaptive cruise control @TheIoniqGuy?

[@ev_kimchi]

So I love playing around with tech, but not letting it drive my car. With self-driving, these systems appear "safe" until that small percentage where they are not. Objectively speaking, having a hand on your steering wheel is more safe, and there are good reasons why OEM systems are built to be more conservative than open source software. Before trusting one of these, I would stop and pause and think that you are not only taking on risk for yourself, but also for others on the road around you that haven't decided to agree to drive near open-source nightly developer builds of software.

[@Cory182]

This is not really self-driving. It's just a more advanced version of the level 2 driver assistance features built-in to the car. The driver is still 100% responsible for the car's movements. The built-in features require frequent steering input because that's how it can confirm you're still there and paying attention. The c3x just does that with a driver-facing camera and an AI model that tells it what the driver is doing and where they're looking. With the additional information, it should be considered MORE safe.

[@Methanoskttr]

Driving is a risk in general even if you consider yourself a "great" driver. Being "too" careful can be even more dangerous to others. That said, these systems are not a replacement at all for the driver. This is the primary thing I think most drivers with these features don't understand and the WHY that could lead to elevated danger. Being careless and not paying attention could very well lead to easily avoidable accidents.

There is a tone when you've changed gears via the paddle shifters the system is about to return to 'D', which is annoying. Seems like the Hyundai engineers put the tone on the wrong state change. It's a safety issue really.

​@@scootercrosskingit sucks that it has to rely on two markers to keep you centered. Why can't it just use one marker cause that would be enough info imo. As you know and seen in this video not roads have two markers. Around my area lanes that are against the curbs don't have a line painted so lane keep assist is useless most of the time. I remembered my 20 Accord being able to keep its lane on those streets but you had to be above 40mph or so for it to engage.

[@dguy321]

@@scootercrossking that's too bad. Was really hoping they caught and fixed this with later SW. I have a 2023 Tucson with HDA(1). It's crazy they didn't catch this while testing the lane keeping feature.

[@wolfman9999999]

My only real question on these system is how they would handle someone having a medical emergency or simply falling asleep behind the wheel when these systems are active. I presume they just nope themselves offline for failure to respond to their warnings and disengage, leaving the car to crash?

[@TheIoniqGuy]

Something I can try to simulate in another video but I would rather have one of these systems engaged if I were to have a medical emergency versus just driving off the side of the road at full speed.

[@SFzip]

@@TheIoniqGuy Yes, please simulate a scenario where the driver loses consciousness or the ability to safely operate the car’s controls. I hope it can automatically activate the emergency blinkers and gradually bring the car to a complete stop. That would be incredible.

[@wolfman9999999]

@@TheIoniqGuy This would be an excellent test. It has been a curiosity as to how these systems would respond to the failure to tug the wheel, which is what presumably would happen if somone falls asleep or loses consciousness behind the wheel. Thank you.

Open Pilot looks like a great product, but I made my 23 Palisade Calligraphy almost as good with only spending 15 bucks for a set of wrist weights and attaching 1 on the right side of the steering wheel! I regularly have to drive on a 340 round trip on mostly 4 lane highways and no longer have to get frequent reminders to keep my hands on the steering wheel!

Experimental modes can enable stop light and sign actions, but it’s definitely in its early stages and most comma users don’t use them.

Why did you choose Sunnypilot over the other ones?

[@GraysonA]

@@TheIoniqGuy I watched it, but was wondering why it interacts better with our cars, and how you determined that.

[@TheIoniqGuy]

I’m sorry, I completely misread your question! The only reason I’ve been using sunnypilot is because A: it was the top recommendation B: Sounds like it has the most devs working on it outside of OpenPilot. C: From what I’ve read it just has some better integrations with Hyundai vs the others but I still have so much more to explore.

@@TheIoniqGuy Know that Tesla is sensitive about this. For example, the windshield wiper starts for the slightest bit of dirt even if it's not raining/snowing or disconnects the self-driving because of it!

Unless this camera gets completely hindered I don’t think it really matters. Just adjust your windshield wiper appropriately

HDA assist was never designed for those roads ,I don't think hands free driving on twistys is a safe idea ,there's a reason those systems aren't legal in Europe !

[@ericanderson1753]

With respect, I have to disagree. We’ve had a Comma for a few years now and it has driven our family over 50,000 miles. With attention and supervision it is safe and capable, even on twisty and laneless back roads.

​@@ericanderson1753 There's the key words !! ATTENTION and SUPERVISION!! many wouldn't do that hence why they're not legal in Europe or UK.

@@ibuk4309 I think the thing I’m reacting to is how folks have opinions about stuff (which is fine, by the way), but there is an empirical fact of the matter to things like accidents on windy roads. Do [proportionally] more happen on Openpilot than not on Openpilot?

this software has the worse of both worlds. essentially a sudo Full self drive but the need to still pay attention, also if anything goes wrong its still the drivers fault

[@Cory182]

Yes, if you treated these driver assistance features like it was a full self driving system (it's not), it would absolutely be your fault if something went wrong.

[@AHumanMale]

Pass. This seems like a lot of money to spend-and risk to take- just to not have to keep your hands on the wheel. Regardless of how well the system appears to do in brief and limited testing, we know it’s the unpredictable edge cases that pose the real challenge to any ADAS. Who is liable if it makes a mistake resulting in injury or death? Some startup whose device runs open source software? The manufacturer of the car you modified? Nope, you’re on your own. When an automaker has enough confidence to buy Comma or at least license their tech and put it into its vehicles, that’s the time to take it seriously. Until then, it’s a big roll of the dice for a modicum of extra convenience.
