Auto parking (or ANY parking... being electric/computer operated) will not allow the car to even PARK where it would be at all, illegal... to do so. (haha, just imagining yelling at the car? "OH C'MON MAAAAAN..... I'm only running in for THIRTY FREAKIN' SECONDS! PARK, damn you.... PAAAAARK!!!) Kind of like you'd see on those silly Parking Patrol reality shows where people are straight-up cussing out some poor employee for writing them a ticket------- fined because THEY parked illegally!?! lol No speeding allowed, no parking allowed if/when it thinks you can't.... driving around forever looking for a legit spot..... might be an issue for some. =p Tho I'd prob. be terrified, freaking out using auto-pilot OR auto-park (phew, SO many are horrible parkers as-is, esp if/when parallel parking, can only imagine how bad they'd be in a reg car.... if they had only relied on auto park!) pretty sure I'd still take that chance, I mean, this thing is sweeeeeeeet!!! :) Lucky guy has TWO of 'em!

I think the little "touch the steering wheel" chime is also there to make sure you are not asleep behind the wheel
@PaleHearse8 жыл бұрын
+Decenium It seems to be more situational. In a recent trip, stuck in stop and go traffic from 60-0 frequently.. it dawned on me that it hadn't come on on over an hour. So it does seem to be based largely on what inputs the car has and how it rationalizes it's environment. Speed is also a factor as when you travel 70-80mph the system wants you to touch the wheel more often as corners or other vehicles approach. This probably because the algorithms that trigger these events are time based.
@Decenium8 жыл бұрын
PaleHearse well the stop and go part, did you do that or the car? although in both cases one can argue that that rhythm would probably keep someone awake anyway. It seems logical from a safety standpoint to indeed have the chime happen more often when going at higher speeds (especially when that is a constant as that is the moment people fall asleep, when not much if anything is asked of them/their brains.
@PaleHearse8 жыл бұрын
With autopilot on, the car lane keeps and comes to a complete stop and resumes highway speed all on it's own with no input from the driver. As to the at speed part, I again state that for the record, I'm fine with the input from me being based on environment instead of some time based nagging. I did take an extended trip across the desert to Tuscon Arizona.. and I didn't find that it was putting me to sleep.. just the opposite actually. I found it left me more alert for that last push through the desert. Even if you did nod off, the car would not crash. This would allow you to then pull over safely and get some sleep rather than waking up in a field with a cow looking in your window.

My dad doesn't trust this car and thinks the autopilot is dumb because it would cause more accidents, when really it would prevent more. Humans take half a second to respond to something, and the Tesla probably takes about 1ms. Humans tailgate and take corners too fast and cause their car to spin out of control, the Tesla does not. Humans take their eyes off the road and get distracted by scenery, etc, and the Tesla does not. All we need now is the Tesla to see stop signs and traffic lights, and maybe get it to turn corners at an intersection, and bamb, everything is solved. Although Tesla also might need to find another way to track the road besides just using the lines on the road, because the lines aren't always trustworthy. I bet if EVERYone had a Tesla today, there would be nearly zero accidents, and barely any pollution. I really hope a Tesla will be mine in the future...

@decidiousrex8 жыл бұрын
Solar panel tech could certainly use some upgrades before I would try it on a car. The price has been dropping substantially, unfortunately not for the type that you would use on a car. These flexible panels, which are also lighter weight, suffer from a few key drawbacks that basically render them unusable for cars, namely: 1. Their watt density. Covering a typical SUV sized roof would yield only maybe 500 peak watts. That means in ideal sunlight conditions (midday sun, no clouds, no obstructions, average temperature, sun angle, etc), it would take 20 hours to charge 10 kWh or slightly over 10% of the Model X's battery space. And, as noted in this video, the Model X is not a full size SUV. 2. Their usable angles. You remember how I just talked about ideal sunlight conditions? Well for this type of panel, that's basically when the sun is exactly perpendicular to the panel. Do you know how often that is, in real world conditions? Almost never. Effective solar arrays make use of motors to point them at the sun, something totally not feasible on a car. In real world conditions, you would probably only get maybe 200 actual watts. Simply turning off the stereo would yield better results. 3. The cost and weight. So, for all that fuss, the cost would have to be cheap.... and it isn't. The solar panels themselves would easily cost $1000, then you have an expensive array of electronics to make sure the panels can actually charge the batteries at the correct voltage, that the batteries don't discharge into (and thusly explode) the panels, and a way to ensure the panels don't overcharge the batteries. Oh, and did I mention that these panels, and all these electronics, will easily add 100 pounds? For the time being, you are MUCH better off creating a solar array with battery storage at your home and simply charging the car off that.

3:28 i can see the push to open feature being a massive issue for people living in cold climate, doors always freeze shut, and if you can't pull on it, you won't get into the car.
@timoe11498 жыл бұрын
very true, unless it can blast that door open no matter what. But there are other parts that arent thought thru either, so it goes on the long list of improvements to be done..

+mtothem1337 I heard from a Model S owner in Northern Norway (his youtube channel is jorgen Winther-Larsen) that door and window issues are all fixed by preheating the car through the app. The only problematic special case scenario there, is if you have left your car with nearly no battery left, without charging it. Because it will refuse to preheat the car if the battery is too low (below 10% or something like that). Now the reason I mentioned windows, was because Model S has this thing where it rolls down the windows a tiny bit to be able to open the doors. I'm not sure if the Model X has the same thing. Bjørn Nyland is another great channel about cold Tesla driving, if you want to know more.

Muskar Rolling down the windows doesn't work either if there is frost on them. but hopefully they have solutions for issues like that.

mtothem1337 I addressed that in my comment though. Or do you mean in that special case scenario where you can't preheat your car because you left your car for a long time with a low battery without charging it?
@mtothem13378 жыл бұрын
Muskar Yeah, since you commented on that, but i don't think it would happen alot. it's a really nice feature that you can preheat it, i wonder how much it drains the battery though

how much time does it take to charge, from empty, to fully charged?
I'm not impressed, this is just basic camera measuring and speed/control adjustment. You won't be able to fully drive a car, with only those features. It's nicely demonstrated by the fact it needs straight roads, white lines, and cars travelling at same distance, and with not too many changes going on. If they can drive a Tesla through New York city center at rush hour, even fast as other cars, and not hitting anything, I'll be impressed. This is just simple adjustments done by a computer. A registration plate reader is actually much more advanced technology.

In autopilot, regarding the graphical representation of the surrounding cars that change color from black to blue to RED....the blue car representation means that the sensors are using that car for partial autopilot control. It's tracking the blue car for auto pilot error correction other than purely and sole using the lane lines from camera data. Thanks for the video - Interesting even for a Tesla owner like myself.

+gadgetpalekid ...and top speed for AutoPilot is 150kph It is limited to 5mph above local limit, so 75mph for UK motorways, and even on unrestricted Autobahn, it would not go above 150kph. It's a little bit hairy at that speed though, pretty good limit, IMO.

my 2016 Honda accord with sensing does similar things. Obviously the auto pilot is better In every way. But super impressed with how my car steers itself in its lane quite well. But it does give you steering required notifications more often, as its built for you to have your hands on the wheel and preforms better and does harder turns when you do keep your hands on. Just cool to see how even your "average" car manufacturer is doing similar stuff and does a good job of it! Happy with how the auto industry is moving. Tesla is pushing them all for sure!
