  • Youtuber Mark Rober made a video sponsored by Luminar Lidar (valuation about $170M-200 Million) which used a large billboard sized picture of the road ahead

The article from NextBigFuture discusses various methods used to trick or test the autonomous driving systems of Waymo, Cruise, and Tesla. It highlights how individuals have attempted to manipulate these systems by using physical objects like traffic cones, signs, or even human intervention to confuse the sensors and cameras of these vehicles. For instance, pranksters have placed cones on the hoods of Waymo cars or used signs to mislead them. The article also mentions that these tests often reveal vulnerabilities in the systems, such as how Tesla's Autopilot can be tricked by certain visual cues or how Waymo's vehicles react to unexpected obstacles. These incidents not only expose potential safety issues but also push companies to refine their technology to handle such edge cases better. The piece underscores the ongoing cat-and-mouse game between autonomous vehicle developers and those looking to challenge or exploit their systems, emphasizing the need for robust testing and development to ensure safety and reliability in real-world scenarios.
