• The grand mission: Tesla is ditching radars. They are using neural network and vision to do radar depth + velocity sensing.
• In order to do that, they need a large AND diverse 4D (3D+time) dataset. This is also used to train FSD.
• Tesla has a whole team spending about 4 months focusing on autolabeling
• Tesla uses MANY (221 as of mid-2021) triggers to collect the diverse dataset. They ended up with 1 million 10-second clips.
• Dedicated HPC team. Now Tesla training with 720 8-GPU nodes!
• Tesla argues that vision alone is perfectly capable of depth sensing. It is hard and it requires the fleet.

PMM: pedal misuse mitigation

Tesla’s data set-up.

Have to figure out the road layout the first time the car goes there (drive on perception). Fundamental problem: Depth estimation of monocular

Once in a while radar gives you a FP that is hard to handle
