Stereo vision is vital to the next-generation technology of autonomous driving and other modern functions like last-mile delivery, as well as future use in robots and robotaxis.
Tesla maintains that artificial intelligence, the heart of its technology, gathers all the data it needs from cameras. But many automakers believe a combination of sensors — typically cameras, radar and lidar — is essential for safe autonomous driving, because each sensor complements the others' strengths and compensates for weaknesses.
