Een leuk artikel gelezen, waar Volvo min of meer een kat uitdeelt naar Tesla:
www.theverge.com/2016/4/27/11518826/v...While Tesla says its technology is Level 2 autonomous — a combination of two technologies designed to make driving easier —
some automotive industry experts, including Ford CEO Mark Fields, believe Autopilot is a Level 3 technology. That means it's designed to take over "safety-critical functions" from the driver. That's my impression from testing the system on a long road trip last month. I was able to drive on the highway for minutes at a time without touching the wheel at all. The driver is supposed to pay attention to the road in case of unexpected developments, but, as long as everything is going well, the car can keep itself in-lane and at the appropriate speed. But it's those unexpected developments that can be the problem.
"It gives you the impression that it's doing more than it is," says Trent Victor, senior technical leader of crash avoidance at Volvo, in an interview with The Verge. "[Tesla's Autopilot] is more of an unsupervised wannabe."
In other words, Tesla is trying to create an semi-autonomous car that appears to be autonomous.
