Viime aikoina on moni oikeasti tason 5 oikeudet omaava toimija julkaissut tekstejä, joissa painotetaan L2 ADAS-toiminnallisuuksien (mm. Tesla) iso ero tasoon 5. Samat toimijat ovat yhteistuumin pohtimassa myös tason 5 tulevia turvallisuusvaatimuksia.
Teksteillä on selkeästi haluttu painottaa, että esim. Teslan FSD on vasta L2 ADAS ja siitä on valtava matka tasoon 5
Alla Waymon ja Auroran kommentit. Auroran mainitsema “Brute-force data gathering” viittaa Teslan käyttämään Fleetin Edge-tapausten mukaan tapahtuvaan opettamiseen. Samaa termiä Teslan mallista käyttävät myös eräät muut toimijat
Waymo
SAE defines six levels of autonomy, ranging from none to a system that can drive anywhere in any condition, but at Waymo, we think that the most important distinction boils down to just two — is a licensed driver required for operating the vehicle or not?
The confusion we see in consumers and the general public between these two distinct states can create false confidence in the capabilities of driver-assist (not fully autonomous) systems. Advanced driver assist features (like the technologies that are sold in vehicles today) require a fully attentive driver and most therefore instruct the driver to keep their hands on the steering wheel at all times.
There is a massive gap between the technology in driver assistance systems versus the technologies that are required for a fully autonomous system (e.g., sensor suite, redundant systems and perception, behavior prediction and path planning software)
Aurora
Autonomous vehicles have to safely handle the myriad situations that human drivers encounter every day, whether common, like construction, or rare, like a darting animal. At the rate these rare events occur, our industry can’t continue to depend on massive on-road vehicle fleets to gather data. Brute-force data gathering is common in first-generation AV programs, as it’s simpler to execute and tells a good story. But it’s too slow to get you to a scalable product.
We’ve built a better way to experience the world far more rapidly, efficiently and safely: Aurora’s Virtual Testing Suite, a collection of sophisticated simulation and data-replay tools that leverages the over 4 million miles our test vehicles have experienced in the real world through the years, and the interesting events encountered by one of our commercial partner’s fleet in their over 7.5 billion yearly miles. We further permute these scenarios, varying things like weather, traffic density and pedestrian behavior to expand their coverage
