Well there goes the American way of life... Companies already hire where the workers are cheapest, and will be relying heavily on AI so very few people working in the US. Corporations better start to pick up the tab for social services and other government functions because there won't be enough income tax to afford it all.
But the headlights shined on her and the car still ran into her.. which means the car was driving at a speed so far beyond headlight focal headlight length it couldn't even react... In a car with all kinds of brilliant sensors and reaction time.
I actually wanted to say the same thing too but I didn't feel like being told to put on my tin foil hat today. It's almost like the video was deliberately made bad. Or it came from a camera with a tiny lens.
First of all, the woman would have been much more visible than the video captured. The video was very dark; way darker than adjusted human vision. Secondly, as you said, where are all these nice sensors that are going to make automated driving safer? What happened to 'these cars can see way better than you can'?
Because articles... anyway the video that just came out confirms it.
Video is out, and it still isn't clear to me. Especially with lidar.
I've never said everyone would, but I think it is a realistic expectation that automated driving be modeled after good driving habits. Defensive driving is mostly about the physics of driving a car; something that is the same regardless of who or what is driving it.
Seen the video now, still don't understand it. Especially considering the video is way darker than it would have been in real life.
Keep in mind that you would have seen this much clearer in reality, the video quality is terrible; it looks like it was taken with a 90's camera. Even in this video you can see a silhouette of her head in the shadow with enough time to stop.
How can you tell? The video quality is terrible. Things would have been much clearer if you were in the car. Even in the video you can see the shadow moving a couple seconds before the accident.
This I can agree with. My kids' elementary school had a large sign in the front door that asked people NOT to walk directly across the street from the parking lot. Everyone ignored it.

The green got slightly darker.
You're saying the middle class won't survive without cheap tablets containing backdoors and trojans?
Sure Netflix only costs $10 a month, but it is mostly bargain bin stuff. The kind of stuff you would find in a $3 DVD sale.

So the nations of the world should just participate in a race to the bottom until corporations are the only ones with money?
Furthermore, with the light in the background even a good camera would have trouble without a neutral density filter.
Lol they used a gas stabilizer on a shitty $20 webcam.
I was thinking cataract-ridden grandma just able to see over the dashboard myself.

Obviously they forgot to do it for this video.
Because the pedestrian was probably confident that the car would see her and stop accordingly.

The scariest part is that the pedestrian does not react to the car at all before being struck.
I think the woman must have been very confident that the car would have seen her and stopped.
The video quality is awful. You can't really say that a human wouldn't have seen the woman by this.

Ok well now the video is out and you can clearly see the woman... don't get how camera+lidar+radar didn't see this coming.
Keep in mind that you would have seen this much clearer in reality, the video quality is terrible; it looks like it was taken with a 90's camera. Even in this video you can see a silhouette of her head in the shadow with enough time to stop.
That is what I have been trying to say. Humans use so many more visual cues, especially to sense danger.
How can you tell? The video quality is terrible. Things would have been much clearer if you were in the car. Even in the video you can see the shadow moving a couple seconds before the accident.
Lider is specifically supposed to be for the dark is it not? It's almost like there was something wrong with the sensor.
I hope this isn't the video that the car is trying to drive by, it is WAY too dark.
This I can agree with. My kids' elementary school had a large sign in the front door that asked people NOT to walk directly across the street from the parking lot. Everyone ignored it.
"Oh noes! We programmed for a person with a bicycle at dawn, dusk, and day but we forgot night!"
Yet you can see a person on a bike. So should have the car.
