Key Takeaways

we're trying this again we're going live I am going to fill the questions [Music] [Music] now and then we should write in functionalities where the car is driving so similar to what the peyote and so right now the device that you see and this is what right now the only devices possible pilot but we are very opened and like more and more devices that actually could support the support of a part which is one main reason why we move the pilot of this sort so that people can actually port it they're aware we have any plans to use that or did you actually use any simulation when you do that with payment system or is it all on life days we might know we do we do is already simulator so we do use simulators to plan regression tests to develop our features it was like we have to use simulators so my cartoon again we extensively use simulators but the interesting simulators that we are building is the simulator that we hope is gonna allow us a flying personal learning to try this is kind of a different simulator that requires us having like a very good understanding of the surrounding and then creating a system where the car can be automatically rewarded if he drives well and being like the same honest when he doesn't drive well automatically understanding how to drive this is like one of the research projects that we are working on which allows us to add like other models more scaling and having more leverage of the data that we have without having to work all the features for planning so it's some sort of like how do we copy apply machine learning to the block if it does like the planning of the Sodra here and so this is what like simulated everything can you select the particle of communication in SoCal's like a different light it's use the way that these issues communicate with each other is true and is a and protocol which is they are coming up communication area network I mean my hand itself is off the network like you can't like any as I can as can portable communication seems like many years it's actually mandatory to use to your scanner since I think the eight is so now I mean you have to have physical access to the car in order to have like any sort of like issues like issues like devices that are connected on internet and yes you have to be you have to make sure that you cannot ever you are going to have a tax through the internet connectivity of your device yes our device is interconnected and that's how we yeah you know the same thing basically that like the same processes but like many many many many cars like software software like on the same problem as before we're gonna see more and more cars having capability of being like updated over yeah right this is the kind of thing that we believe it's absolutely so it's kind of like we believe is like super strange they're like $30,000 object that you buy today cannot be updated over yeah like if you need a software update and regarding like safety yes I mean of course it's our concern right but like how many cars have been act in the last like how many classic you or they have been hacked and they made some damage because they be not I had heard about about one so it is a concern clarify what she said earlier about reading the censors so if there whatever sensor suite is in place for a task that comes are you're able to use those sensors and incorporated into quick and then towards the answer you were saying about items that are available for purchase you mentioned something about if you wanted to know more about positioning of your vehicle what how precise is what is it so do you some lousy oh so it's like so this is like you blocks I'm not sure if you are familiar with this use like a new blocks processing antenna wherever you have access actually to all GPS and so thought about like how much post processing you do about it and you can get like very precise that you can actually like you use the correct like post processing and so in this regard okay this is like a little spoiler but this week we're gonna release idea here so this week we're kind of like there's an engineer like our health organization who is actually going to going to make an open source of post processor or GPS data and get like the best across it is you can get the type of response team I mean like so no micro GPS as opposed to regular the difference Thank You procedure yeah well so we do the post-processing not assuming that you do like any vision feature magic which allows you to be even way more precise so just by GPS a-gps processing and some sort of light filter like you're playing a Kalman filter and you're like sense of a like accelerometer you can get between like helping me there procedure well you would be able to localize all but if you have the map that you can centimeter across because once you know which lane you are into then you just have to find like some visual feature like line lines and localize yourself within very are totally within centimeter within the lane lines so yes I mean this is not assuming any visual organization if you want to use visualization then you can get like centimeter accurate because for example I necessarily you know which lane which lane you are into you see where the lane lane lines are and then you just localized yourself relatively to the main lines for which you perfectly know the position because they are on your high-definition maps and then you can organize yourself at least in one dimension which is dimension that matters within like Yousaf meter how much is it obviously like subtyping to me that I really like [Music] but I'm funny that I'll commute that we post-processing yes we're gonna lose the tools do I should achieve that and this is all every all the software that goes into a source yes oops sorry we have our Canadian crew that's downstairs so maybe I'll have a tour film you guys while I go get that Canadians oh sorry to interrupt yeah he's talking there's there's 24 people Greg can you do me a great big favor can you hold them until I'm back I'm just gonna run to get the Canadians you know [Music] you know I think stay the hardware yeah any thought that might be enough but if it's not they're gonna replace the hardware is that still kind of industry with sooner the thing is something today whether it's writing applications when the machine learns it creates a solution you are you are yeah [Music] yeah I studied like many engineering I was busy - yelling at bachelor and then I switched to automotive mechanical engineers for master I moved to United States I need some work in the vehicle so I moved to Tesla Tesla for about like five six years and the pilot then I joined I met George which there is the founder combi and I got very excited about the project and I'm still happy so I'm very excited about like the idea of like solving practical problems like SCU job I get excited about problems where is it a huge opportunity of like making things better and I just see like a huge proportion of like investment other sources like overnight level 4 I just feel like okay well let's picture like let me chew Stephanie like over a loop and so I'm excited about solving problems divide like positive actually impact on people's life I understand thing there's issues of propriety this about people's are so currently and replace any money OS in most us jurisdictions in the world you invalidate warranty do you have plans to so obviously I said before like our our plan is to work with it is to work with humans player we have to work together like in order to make apparel successful we need to ship it like we need to work together to yes and so yeah this is the plan like the plan is like it's not in part in anything like the work with aftermarket product it's actually working working with them and working together like exchanging information about like how there are the interface of the cap works and making it compatible like what I'm saying compatible at the point like they do with the polar project they're trying to do the same thing I think like their approach is the totally different from us we try to make it working on tasks that people own which is why like we want to make it accessible right we want to make like open pilots something that people can access and so we to like definitely try to achieve our end goal but the way that we're doing is very different like we try to make it open pilot working on to the ACE car there try to make a map I like they are polar projects working on we with cars that cost more than $1,000 and just research projects and so they're like and it only works on like very heavy computers like we use by consumer we use things that you can find in focus liking the smart phones you can buy today is they argue that is sufficient to run a pilot so the direction is very different we try to value like accessibility and orally like transparency and early adoptability of the features while while I think Apple is taking more like and testifying like something that means like very heavy they basically didn't consider like any constraints in term of like a car accessibility and so the part to get there is different we have seven million miles we plan 12 like people live in a year they said like more than 100 ma and 100 medium eyes I don't think like the polar project is ever gonna get close to that like Apple is now gonna be able to define their own HD maps on different the day today their devices collect because the amount of people using their devices is it's possible it's possible but like I mean okay so which which which hardware do they need that do they need like they need like lighter so do they need which I mean like I have not seen like a car driving with the poor law and having like satisfactory level to system so like I've seen like they most of their expensive cars with gliders coming Estrada so Atlanta car probably driving at the polar but like it doesn't seem like they are on a part of ship ability in terms of like are they on a part of like shipping their product anytime so they are they ready to ship it anytime soon so we try to behave in that sense by developing it on cars and hardware that can be found today's today development cycle automobile if it sees five years for to build into a car etc and you're talking about level two and hopefully level four will have taken off and completes at least in some parts of the world then what is this selling point so if I'm in Tier one or I'm an OEM what are you going to tell me that is going to make me say yesterday yeah so before they said that it's not gonna make like mockingly majority of people's life that they're it's only gonna work like in very limited environment it's not proven to work yet I know like way manaus that they ship this month like they are their first like project program community like a tire behind behind the wheel economy works we very climate where they're like in Arizona I'm not like I don't think like a level four he's gonna he's gonna anti ownership this is like the main point like people are still gonna buy cars for many many years like decades from now so the problem like we are not competing with wait wait we are not competing with with this idea of like creating data for system I actually oh but they succeed I'm not so sure they gonna make people's life better because like partly san francisc is like traffic is traffic is the main proper right and so making transportation cheaper in cars does it make talking better now for is gonna make it worse like it's probably gonna make like way more working some assist people and me is probably gonna make like our commute board it's coming the public cheaper third wars like it's gonna spend more time job so I am saying the comet doesn't try to make commuting cities cheaper he's gonna try to make it better but not cheap he's not trying to make your commute on highway definitely better today I just I just think like trying to solve like think that is trying to solve we could be solved in different ways maybe better public transportation like we already have what we need not so sure it's gonna solve practical problems but I'm excited about the project I'm excited about like detecting a challenge it seems like a body project - let's stop there so people can get some food and engineers are here we have a we have a shop we have a mobile shop with us so if you want to get tour t-shirts if you want to get Aeons if you want to get your a Spanos whatever Nick will be working that back there or wherever Nick outside yeah help your guys to pizza and thank you so much for coming like I said people will be here to continue answering your questions and yeah thank you guys all right bye scobie's
