Tesla dropped radar because they are moving to vision only systems like how the Comma AI/OpenPilot works. Vision models are superior to radar since radar can't detect stopped obstacles.

From their comments about it being a setback, it doesn't sound like it was planned to happen so quickly.

Radar can absolutely detect stationary objects. Your vehicle moving at 50 mph means a stationary object is moving at 50 mph relative to your radar.

Yea but they need to distinguish between the stationary objects that are inconsequential to the car.

Are you telling me that its an unsolved problem in aero industry whose entire tracking mostly dependa on radar and it doesn’t work with non moving objects? That doesnt make any sense to me, I mean how is a static image more superior to, say a metric that has accurate angle and distance.
