According to foreign media reports, Tesla CEO Elon Musk said on Sunday that Tesla will upgrade the Autopilot version of the autopilot system, using radar as its main sensor. Mask said that the system upgrade package will be pushed in the next week or two. The updated Autopilot system optimizes the use of radar, and Autopilot will better sense the surrounding conditions and determine when to brake. In addition, if the driver does not respond to the alert, the new system will temporarily block the user from using Autopilot. For the previous version of Autopilot, which was based on camera environmental monitoring, radar was only an aid.

On Saturday, a Tesla Model S with a manufacturer's sign and an external sensor on the roof was photographed by a netizen near the headquarters of Tesla Paro. The friend who provided the spy photos specifically described his findings:
“I saw a Model S with some interesting hardware on the highway near the headquarters of Tesla today. It looks like it is equipped with two lidars on the roof. But it’s not sure, too It may be other sensors, but they are installed horizontally. Is this the next generation of Autopilot that Tesla is developing?"
However, from the photo point of view, if it is a laser radar, this fixing method will block most of the laser emission window, which is not conducive to imaging. Previously, Musk also expressed "a more radar-friendly solution" on various occasions. Then if it is not a laser radar, it is likely to be a high-precision GPS antenna. Due to the demand for high-precision maps, GPS positioning is becoming an important part of the implementation of the Tesla Autopilot system.
However, Musk also said that although radar is the main detection method of Autopilot to help prevent traffic accidents, radar is good at penetrating surrounding obstacles - such as smoke and rain, and is not as good as a camera in detecting people, and identifying wood and plastic objects. There are serious problems. So in the “data shows that the false brakes become a small probability eventâ€, the new Autopilot will not make decisions based on radar detection data. As time goes by, the system shows reliability, and the radar will gradually become the main basis for Autopilot decision-making.
Tesla's Autopilot upgrade news released on Sunday also includes other optimization measures, such as better response to front vehicle brakes and better avoidance of nearby vehicles. For details, please click on the image below to refer to the announcement issued by Tesla's official website.

By running the grating ruler, the grating bars shield the light source, the light is transmitted between the grating bars and the bars, from which the number of pulses output by the receiver, a certain number of pulses are preset by the encoder, and when the number of output pulses reaches the preset value Just generate a control signal for the actuator to act. This method is generally used in CNC automatic control.
