In June, Tesla said of the crash – which is being investigated by
America’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration – that
“neither Autopilot nor the driver noticed the white side of the
tractor trailer against a brightly lit sky,” so the brakes were never
applied.
... the radar function, which was originally added as a supplementary
sensor to the primary camera and image processing system, could now be
used as a primary control sensor without requiring the camera to
confirm visual image recognition.
