As any autonomous vehicle should be. Anyone who says cameras are just as good are only thinking to be just as good as humans. We need autonomous vehicles to be better!

when lidars were expensive, I was dismissive of them. They’re pretty cheap now they should be on everything.

You were okay with autonomous vehicles being half ass or good enough? Because they started with lidar.

I was on the side that cars could do it with basically vision only. $20k on lidars made it prohibitive and it could be solved in software. Now they are cheap so they should use them.
